Say, Voter, don't for the life of
you full to vote in favor of the bond
issue tomorrow. You must realize
that this great county of MtiHno
innli has conferred n grent honor
upon us by doing something that it
has never yet done ngreed to build,
operate and maintain n free ferry
here, provided we purchase the
slips. Don't net the pnrt of an in
grate by refusing to accept it.
Cap Snow'K public confession
with its "wreath of flower" on
first page shows what n tunii can do
if he tries. Any man can do likewise.
It is altogether n question of stami
na nud will txnvur. Some people
nre possessed of both to 11 greater
degree than others, theiefore it Is
harder for some than others to iiIhiii
don the liquor habit. Hut nil have the
power if they will utiti.e it. A just
God would not have it otherwise.
Wc nre glad to learn that Lap lias
"quit." Any man is the butter
for quitting something Hint 1m in
jurious to hU system. That lie
fcols better and looks better Ik n
mutter of course. The question o(
prohibition would never arise if
jK-ople would exercise their will
power, ns Cap Snow has done. Li
quor, like anything else, is 11 curse
when abused. It harms 110 one
when left alone. Bo, like Cap Snow
has decided to do, it is better to let
it alone.

hclitor Review: Is there nny
tliiug in the rumor that the laud on
the west side of the river used by
the present ferry company with
approaches is not n county road
and is liable to be withdrawn from
usage for this purpose nt nuy lime?
htibscrlber.
It is our understanding that the
laud in question has been dedicated
as 11 county road. lint It makes no
difference so far as getting n free
ferty is concerned. According to
the bill Kiicd the only obligation
upon the p.irt of the city of bt.
Johns is to provide the approaches,
slips nud iKiutoous. Land wits not
mentioned. If the west side land
ing place is not on u county road it
is no nfTnir of this city's. We hnve
fulfilled nil our requirements when
the approaches, slips nud pontoons
have been secured and the Iran-
c11I.se surrendered. The county
can then wrestle with the laud
proposition. There is uopntticut.tr
landing place designated on the
west side in the bill, but the foot of
I'lltsDtiig street 011 tue east side s
specified. It may be moved later
at the option of the county eoinmls
sioiicr.s, If deemed advisable.
