Although the petition voiced In the opening prayer, ."May we not minimize the task that has before us," sounded the grave keynote of the meeting last night of the Jack son County Clvlo league, the general tone was far from minor. On the con trary, members appeared to find rea sons for feeling encouraged, and are apparently approaching their ardu ous duties with the courage born of a high purpose, having discovered In their very defest the secret of future victories. Among the several eeuaes for mild rejoicing, were the wet and dry results of the recent election, par ticularly those from Jackson county precincts. The small wet majorities In many Instances, and the fact that Jackson county's . wet majority of only 1,000 wae the emalleat In the state, seemed to Indicate that tha efforta of the league had not been entirely In vain. Tha report of the treasurer, showing finances of the organization to be In a healthy con dition, wee also considered gratify ing. A carefully planned . program of action will be undertaken aa the first tssk of the league, with education and legislation sa paramount conald .ration. . It la felt that education should begin In the schools, while a permanent legislative committee will consider and contact olty, county, state and national representation. Resolutions of approval and support will be sent to certain officials, it was decided,- and the coming Con stitutional convention la eagerly an ticipated. Other ldeaa advanced for the promotion of the "dry" . cause, In cluded the plan to unify various or ganizations throughout the state, to appoint permanent commttees and invite apeakera to address the meet-' lnga of the league, for the purpose of acquiring reliable Information. The meeting adjourned, to convene .hereafter on the third Tuesday of each month. Beware the Cough or Cold that Hangs On Persistent coughs and colds lead to serious trouble.
