In the Prohibition parade at St. Paul during the recent National Pro- Libitlon convention appeared a float in which an old washer-woman was bending over a tub scrubbing away while her daughter was turning the wringer. In a corner sat a drunken sop, her husband, stupidly embracing and fondling his bottle of beer. Over the float hung the sign, “This Woman ‘Will Lose Her Job if Prohibition ‘Wins.” The spectators enjoyed the subtle humor immensely and freely applauded. Just so you should enjoy some of the humorous arguments of the liquor men which, when analyzed, show more dire effects than that of the poor washer-woman losing her job. Laugh at them when they tell you that the town or county will go on the rocks without the licenses from saloons; laugh at them when they tell you that the farmer will have no place to sell his grain if the breweries close; laugh at them when they tell you that the laborer will lose his job with the passing of the saloons; laugh at them on general principles when they talk to you for they have laughed long enough at us because of the ease with which they have duped us with their specious arguments. When they talk to you now laugh at them and tell them to produce the statistics to back up their state- ments. They will then be up against it for you will be ready to show them in cold figures that in every state, eounty and city where prohibition went into effect, financial, economical and social conditions were greatly bettered. Those interested in the cause of prohibition have gathered and tabulated these statistics and they are now available to everyone who is interested. And the unhappy saloon men are unable to success- fully dispute them. They see the handwriting on the wall but they are going to hang on and make as much profit as they can before they are finally closed out. Their strength lies in the fact that they persuade their followers by others than arguments. The drink itself is one of the strongest arguments and you may be sure they are liberal with these ‘“‘arguments’ around election time. Their strength lies in the fact that many young men think that to be smart and grown-up they must drink and swear, but for- tunately “this sentiment is rapidly passing away. -Their strength and perhaps their greatest strength lies in the fact that they appreciate their own weakness and the precarious condition they are now in. They see "“that in order to carry out their ne- farious trade they must get out and fight and they employ every means to win. On August 14 the liquor men will see that everyone who wants saloons in Beltrami county will get out and vote to that effect. Our weakness lies in this very same direction. Everyone of you think possibly that the question does not effect you so vitally after all; you do not drink to excess and no great harm will befall you even if there are saloons in the county; if the poor drunken , fools don’t know enough to stay sober and save their money, why, that is their lookout, not your’s. But is it? Can’t you see that you are just as vitally interested in_this election as the saloonmen ? Every cent they lose is directly your gain. The money that would have been squandered on liquor will when the saloons are abolished be distributed to the products which you have to sell, be it farm products, merchandise or labor. Can’t you see that by not voting on August 14 you are practically voting for the saloons? Get out to the polls on that day, leave your work for a short time and yote one way or the other, but vote. Express your convictions and don’t - fet someone else run your government for you. You can do yourself more good on tha.t day by voting than you Y n you dow’t vote on ‘that day the saloon men wiil laugh at you. 1f you do vote you will laugh at them PUSH GOOD THINGS ALONG. When you see or hear of a good thing in this community, push it along. Push hard and keep on push- ing. You can accomplish wonders for Bemidji by following such a course. It has its effect on the outside world and it induces other local citizens to follow your lead. A few pushers can do some things and can accomplish a few results, but it requires the efforts of a united people to make a dent in the world. Let’s all get together and make the dent. 3 Soldiers who have families de- charged from the regiments on the border. . In time, no doubt, unless something ‘breaks loose,”” the de- pendent families will multiply many fold. Plowing corn on a hot day is no sinecure, but it is a paradise com- pared to patroling the border with no immediate scrap in sight. Life is just one day after another until we reach the end, but the question of whether those days will be of sunshine or shadows rests en- tirely with us. BAUDETTE HOMESTEADER IS FATALLY INJURED Baudette, Minn., July 24.—Tom Lynch, a homesteader near Bankton, south of Baudette, is near death at the Spooner hospital. A large hay fork in a barn fell 40 feet and struck Lynch on the head, inflicting terrible injuries. The sharp tongs pierced the brain and only for a strong con- stitution he would have died immedi- ately. He has been unconscious since the accident.
