' ' - ' ' x This is a logical sequence to the success of the liquor prohibition amendment. Having once successfully inter fered in the personal habits of others, the meddlesome will continue their efforts to make others conform to their orr narrow ideas. If successful in prohibiting the cigarette, the cigar, the pine and even chewing tobacco .will be next, following which will come coffee and tea along with the revival of the old blue laws. Liquor prohibition succeded because crime, degener acy and poverty were a direct result of the excessive use of alcohol. It populated the prisons, filled the asylums and peopled the slums. It corrupted politics and degraded the weak. The liquor traffic affected not only the indiV' idual adversely, but the entire communityhence its abolition. , Tl Similar arguments cannot be used against tobacco which is, after all a. minor. vice and does not seriously affect society nor apparently the health of the adult in Iividual. Deprived of comparatively minor vices, human ity is apt' to supplant them by more injurious ones. In the law of nature, moderation is virtue and excess crime, and the punishment fits the crime. It was because there were so many that could not be moderate in their drinking habits and the penalty inflicted for the crime of excess was so heavy on society, that the source was abol ished, but the individual and not society is punished for excess in the use of tobacco, coffee, tea, candy and other food products. The anti-cigarette bill is doomed to defeat not be cause of the growth of the habit among women, or because of the cigarettes' universal use among the boys of the A. m. b. but because it is fanatical meddling and contrary to common sense. HUNTING A HUSBAND By Mary Douglas AN! ANXIOUS NIGHT CHAPTER LXXiH I struggled out of a deop sleep. "Miss Sara, Miss Sara,' ' the heavy rapping went on. "Jome ;in! " I called. Miss.

' Open Forum. A POLITICAL GAME. There is every indication the opposition to the peace treaty is purely for political effect and that when the aims and objects of the politicians are secured, the treaty will be adopted, with perhaps a few reasonable reservations or amendments. Politics is being more adroitly and scientifically play ed for the 1920 election than ever before by Chairman Hayes, of the Republican National Committee, and his assistants. Surveys of public opinion in all sections have been made and every Senate objection carefully planned to conciliate a certain faction and unify it for support in 1920. Many trivial and foolish amendments offered are for this reason onlydesigned to placate and please var ious foreign-born whose homelands are effected. The Germans and Austrians &re naturally bitter against the treaty and its author. It is hoped to alenate the Irish because of prejudice against the British. The Italians are disgruntled over Fiume and the Balkan peo ples because' similar land grabs have been halted. The Rttle Americans are being rallied Under the cry of 'Ameri ca for Americans' and all the diverse disgruntled elements oE our hetrogeneous population herded together for their votes. The work of unifying a nation is in danger of be ing undone. There is of course danger that the game, will be over played and defeat its purposes hence the recall of John son to Washington. The danger point is being neared. Demagogy has served its purpose. To tho 'Editor: Who has charge of tho wild and dangerous animals of the city of Suletnf Is there any protection offered o t mother who has babies just boglnning to tun about!

Com! St Salem, Oregon. Street-car strikes are drastic pills for the public. Chicago and New York recently had "to taks their medicine. The same dose' may be brewing for other cities. But with the experience of the eastern and western metropolis to guide them, ether towns may sugar-coat their local transportation troubles. There's a way. Street car strikes are calamities to l.nsiness men. Preparedness is the only remedy for Ihem. One busi res's man of Chicago at least was prepared. He set an example for merchants all over the country in future street car strikes." Street car strikes do not blaw 'ap out of a clear sky. There are always igns of their coni'inff. Frane-D.--Mayer, president of Essenkay Products company, tire 'Jitter roanufacturerst-read the signs ir arbance and prepared for the crisis? This is the way he did it: 7ey Should- Worry When the strike seemed certain,: Mr. Mayer planned a private trans portation line foT his employes. He had pocket maps of the city printed, showing routes over which his trucks would run, with a time-table giving the hour at which the trucks would he at given points. He distributed these maps among his employes. When the strike came, ho threw a fleet of ' big trucks into service. Every morning at the appointed sta tions the trucks picked up his em ployes and delivered them at .he plant on time and took them home ward at night Throughout tin strike, this private transportation line ran on regular schedule. As a result, not an employe was missing from the factory during the strike. The plant maintained its normal output Tho strike, which cost other merchants thousands of dollars, cost the Essenkay -opsny not a cent.
