Ever’ “Scratch’? é Did you ever scratch your party ticket to ‘ mene for better on some other icket? Sure, you did. Almost every red- } blooded American has done it. Why not : THE ONLY nonpartisanship, then? i VOLUME 18 Pershing in Midst of Figh INCE the first of the year, 65 new drug Stores have sprung up in King county, according to county officials. A good many of these have been established in the city. ALL these new drug stores cannot be sup- ported legitimately. No man can conscien- rte Indicate General tiously or in reason believe that all of them Is Mixing With are on the square. Villistas There is no use beating about the bush. Great quantities of liquor are being sold— and some of the old drug stores as well as some of the new ones are making a farce of the prohibition law. Drunkenness in Seattle is becoming al- most as common as it was before the state went dry. The people of this state voted for the pro- hibition law. It is not the square thing to wink at this open violation of the law. It is un-American and unprincipled. It is detri- mental to public peace and to private busi- ness. It serves to keep up an agitation over the “booze” question that should be, by this time, definitely and forevermore settled. Seattle and the state have more important and larger affairs to deal with. They can not afford to be eternally bothered with a saloon question. OUR PUBLIC OFFICIALS HAVE WORK TO DO.
