vents the legislation th at the good
people want. He used this explanation
to lead up to a declaration that the
liquor question will not be settled w ith­
out the form ation of a new party, hav­
ing that proposition as its most promi­
nent plank.
The speaker laid stress on two state­
ment seldom played up by prohibition
speakers. He said that so far the pro­
hibitionists have accomplished nothing,
and will accomplish nothing until all
the good people get together and vote
them selves into control of the national
government. He also laid stress on
the point th at the prohibition party
also stands for everything else that is
good in governm ent and th at the stop­
ping of the m anufacture of liquor is
only one of its proposed reform s.
The speaker excoriated the govern­

wet territory.

Avenues on the west side, north of

Every block has been alloted 100
numbers, so that each block will begin

will be required to number their houses
before July 1st. It is wished to have
all house num bers uniform , and as the
city furnishes the numbers cheaper
than individuals can buy them, it is
probable that there will be no trouble
in carrying this plan out. The city en­
gineer has given each lot its number
and the city will get the signs here as
soon as possible, furnishing the number
and putting it up for35c.
The city expects to make enough
profit from the sale of the numbers to
pay for sign boards for the streets.
