She ia a former republican national, com mitteo woman from New York, and represented the women's or ganisation for national prohibition reform.

They are now realising "with heart-burnings and heart-aching," she asserted, "that It the spirit is not within, legislation can be of no avail." Applause rang from the specta tors when she added, "they thought they could make prohi bition as strong as the constitu tion, but Instead they hare made the constitution as weak as prohi bition."

Turning to the Women's Chris tian Temperance union, Bruce said he hoped "these splendid but misguided women will soon get- back to the temperance that was their aim, and leave prohibition alone." Assailing what he termed the "frightful orime condition in Chi cago." be said "the real spring of this pollution Is prohibition. He asserted that he knew, "of course, that a majority of this committee Is adverse to the meas ure now under consideration." He said that 70 per cent of all the stills confiscated throughout the country were taken In the states of the old Confederacy.
