Chicago, Ill., July 26.—The well known temperance advocate, Fran- cis Murphy, who is in thecity, when asked to-day what he thought of the prohibition outlook said: “The prohibition amendment is in the dough. Iknew it would be so. Prohibition means free whisky and that is all you can make out of it the idea ofa prohibition law prov- effectual in Chicago, for instance, is ridiculous. Ina sparsely settled county or in some small towns per- haps it could be made so, but never in centers of population. I believe that sucha law would simply tie our hands as to restrictive measures and we would have prohibition that does not prohibit.” “What do you think of the sub- mission prohibition amendment in South Dakota?” | “Are they going to do it? Out there where the people are scattered it is possible that when passed the laws may actually prohibit, but I maintain that it is against all rea- son. Only think of it—telling a man he shall not produce an alco- holic beverage which is the product of the fruits of the garden and or- chards.

Who says clover won’t pay in this county? ‘Squire Henry Slack of Calhoun, who was in town to-day, offers the following indisputable evidence that it does and will pay big. This year he has two acres in clover, which has been constantly pastured by his family cow, a great milker and a corresponding big eater. He has just cut four tons of hay from the same ground, which he marketed at five dollars per ton, and has a pasture that will keep three cows at $1,50 per month until jcold weather, if the season holds good. “You can figure this out, and see for yourself, that raising clover does pay, and pay big,” said the "Squire.
