Governor Hanley Is one of the foremost temperance workern In the United Stafe, He favored the enactment of certain temperance laws, but the legislature refused to follow his advice' and the liquor interest euceeded in having his bill killed In apodal session of the legislature and, coming as it does, Just prior to the - presidential eelction, they must meet the tjiuetiUon squarely. Governor Han ley headed the committee from the Methodist General conference that visited Washington this spring aid demanded the ptifsnge of the bill then pending to prevent the manufacturer from shipping liquors into dry terri tory. The reception It received Is the fwnrtaMnn for th? attempt the Meth odic church Is making today to defeat! Shaker Cannon for re-election in Il linois. V ; " , Just prior tft attending the Genera! conference Governor Hanley' "passed through one of his many battle to se cure temperance recognition." . When the republican state convention of In diana was In sefedon! Governor Hanlev desired to be selected as a dole gato to th republican national convention that later nominated . Mr. Taft. He also desired the convention to take advance ground on temperance. In Its platform. A committee waited upon Governor Hanley and Informed him hat If he desired to no to the Chi cago convention he must not insist upon the adoption in the state, plat form his already prepared resolution on temperance. This throat so enraged Governor Hanley that he immediately returned to the floor of the convention and se cured recognition of the chair and In one of the most masterful addresses of his life ho told that body what tti' committee had told him, and after ho concluded hjs remarks, which Iatii over an hour, and extracts, of thin peech have been copied far and wide, tho vote wus taken and Governor Han ley wn not only elected as a delegate to Chicago, but his resolution on tem perance was adopted without a single amendment. Ono of, the lending pa pers of Indiana recently stated that frm the politicians Governor Hanley could expect nothing, but lie could se cure from the people anything ho de sired. He mny not accomplish nt thlx extra, session what h desired, but he will lay th foundation for a campaign that will later bring it about. He m.iy at this time. The people generally will watch tilt) results with Interest. a It requires no prophet to foretell the result of the present temperance movement In the t'nlted States. An other 10 years of progress similar to th past 10 years and the niHnufacture and sale of llnuor ' In the - I'nlled States mny he a thing of tho past The states are working Individually nt present unit winning out rapidly, but the next advanced step will he a national law which will strike nt the very heart of tho business. For years 'hundred of. opponents to prohibition have declared If Its nvinurnctuie could he suppressed, "Ws would Kindly J-ln you, but so long n h It is mad under a national license peopi,. will pet It If not one way they will another." Many who have made simitar 'remarks will live to see I lu; day whin our gov ernment -w T.l cease to live off the rev enues received from the manufacture of liquor and will suppress Its manu facture altogether.

It even went so far lnj Washington that the leading 'republican paper in Walla Walla openly advocated that the dem ocrats Join the republicans to aid the renominatlon of Senator Ankeny. That was based largely on a home spirit campaign, nevertheless it was abomin able and ' should have 'defeated any candidate that advocated such a meas ure. ' ; President Roosevelt wired the boys over in Xew .Yorfc to renominate Gov ernor Hughes,' and they did. The people wanted Hughes, but the ma chine of New York did not want him, the gamblers of New ': York ' did not want him, bat the vote that will be piled up $r hl when election , day comes will show the results of an hon est and fearless administrator. The nomination of Hughes ' means .that Taft will' carry. New r York, N might have been different had Hughes not been nominated.1 . a The temperance question Is rap Idly assuming an Important .factor In politics and like the tariff, is viewed locally from different standpoints. In Maine the republican platform comes out bold and emphatic for prohibition and the 'democratic party Is favoring license snd t 'JZ attitude of the parties are reversed. Prohibition seerns to pick tho winners In each case, however. Maine is about as sure of going republican as Texas Is democratic. , ,' a-e - ' If our-Agricultural college, throi.gn practical experiments on our own sol! can demonstrate to our farmers" that It is to their advantage to ,ult bare fallow and each year raise a crop, we will be many thousands of dollars Ije'trr off annually.
