will controcrt the clean-cut and
practical statements by Dlshop Potter
and Dr. Ralnsrord, published In to

. Sensations arc frequent in Wash

the announcement by Senator Ooreot
Oklahoma that he has been ortcrcd a
brlbo of 150,000 for a withdrawal ot
of his opposition to pending contracts
This probably means another Con

NOTED PUBLICISTS CONDEMN
, WOOLLEY'S PLAN.; g r-
One of tho strongest Indictments
that has ever been leveled against
the enactment of prohibition laws
Is our the slgnaluro of former 1'res
Idcut Charles V Ultot ot Harvard
Unhcriiltj, Seth Low ani James C.
Curler. IhU report Is the result 'ot
an IthebtlBUtluu Into the liquor prob
Icm 'by the Commlttco of Kitty aiuu
was taken up In n thorough and s)b
tematlc manner. The result Is that
the Committee Is In favor of UjSjB
tern u( Ikeuse as opposed to the en
forcement of prohibitory regulations.
In-summing up the rcsultB of the
.Investigation, the subcommittco ro
port by President Eliot. Seth Low
and James C. Carter sain:
Prohibitory legislation has
, failed to exclude Intoxicants
completely even from districts
where public Bentlment has been
i favorable. lu districts where
public sentiment has been rvl
erte or strongly divided, the
traffic In alcoholic beverages has
never been exterminated or ren
dered unprofitable. Prohibition
has, of course, failed to subdue
thi drinking passion, which will
forever prompt lcslstance to ro.
- strlctlve legislation.
k There havo been concomitant
evils o'f prohibitory legislation.
The efforts to enforce It during
tlfe forty jears past hae bad
1 some unlooked-for effects on
public respect for courts,' judi
cial procedure, oaths and laws
f In general, and for officers of
the law, legislators and public
scrvantB. The public has seen
"'"law defied, a whole generation
f. of habitual law-breakers school
t.w.ed In evasion and shameless
' HC33, courts ineffective through
X fluctuations of policy, delajs,
WA J'crjury, negligenco uud other
. f? ' miscarriages of Justlto, officers
'' '' of the law double-faced and
. mercenary, legislators timid and

lino siaivuieiii, liner muruiiBii in

of )ears, under the direction of men
ot the standing ot President Eliot
and Seth Low, should be enough to
show what tho Infliction of Ntool.
lejism would mean to tho Terrltors
ot Hawaii.
That a prohibitory law su:h as
now obtains In the State of Maine Is
not cvon conducho to temperance Is
0.I50 the direct statement of the com
mittee: It can not be taken for grant
ed that the good results ot a
prohibitory regime In semi-rural
communities are due to prohibi
tory legislation, .'n M.issachu.

of towns outlawing the saloon,

local option law, far exceeded
the number of towns In Malno

Jnd there are other consldcra-
JJons io be weighed carefully.
""""Tho-fact that prohibition uns
so long had n place on tho stat
ute books, and .latterly In tho
Constitution, h'as fostered a
feeling of security detrimental
to the cause of temperance, pure

"with the aim of prohibition
complain thnt the tempernnco
work which formerly reached
the mtiKxes has degenerated Into
meetings for political purposes,
(,or thnt.the ngttntlnn for absti
nence has become a cry for po
illco anil ietcctive methods. The

5(u iiKolhblfloh, It ls-a pertinent
remark that "politics hae a
double effect In Maine, weaken-
.Out 'bf ppiinsltlon to the law
ttrelf, as wrll. us weakening Its
ohTdrtVriifnir,v In other words,
whether to win favor or because
.or- fear, many men assume n
llendly attitude toward the law
which they dlsbolleve The ques
tion of enforcement depends
mainly on political exigencies,
which, again, depend on the
state of public opinion A full

with prohibition, Nowhero s

disapprove, but violate openly

all law needs no further eluci

ficial dishonor follow It.

REFORMATION BY SUSPENDED
SENTENCE.
Docs "suspended sentence" in the
caso of moral and civic delinquents
fulfill its mission In the protection
and uplift of soclety7 Wo havo heard
some criticism of the practice, but It
is posstblo that thoso who would orlt
Iclso havo not given tho subject tho
serious thought thnt It demnnds. '
Tho "eyo for nn eyo" and "tooth for
n tooth" period has passed and tho
Judges of today, those versed In crim
inology, nro reformative, rather than
vindictive. The Idea Is to mako tho
punishment fit the crime so that tho
salutary effect of the law may bo
properly felt, and Its penalties avoid
ed, and at the same time the offend
er given n chance to reform.
It was thought, and still Is by some,
that the suspended sentence would
result In letting loose on tho commun
ity a band of rogues. In practice,
however, the opposite has been the
result.
It lias hi ought men to a true senso
of their position and opened tho door
tn better things for many whoso of
fense was not gravo enough to place
them In the category of .criminals.
