It has only been two weeks since

lower windows, nnd seemed en-
h trance. He was too foxy to tako any
mtifles of clothing, nnd seemed evi
dently to be on the hunt for money,
iind left without any booty.
When bo returned last Thursday
i night, the inn milder entered the
fiimc way that he did before by priz
liic off one of the bars from a lower
window. Albert Severance hnd left
t-evcrat shotgun shells standing on n
tdielf in the basement and the burg

They took enre, here, too not to tnke
elothing or goods by which they
might tw identified or prove it clew
later. Entrance wns effected into
this storeroom by the same means
that it was entered when robbed be

The young mui who are getting

pretty well known, it is generally be
lieved. Cltiuf of Police Carter says
that ho is mortally certain who they

Tho voters of tho county nro to de
termine this matter on Feb, 10. The
isuo is n clear nnd definite one. Oth
er questions do not enter into and
complicate the consideration of the
matter I": fore us. It is a niornl
question rather than a political one.
All citizens must take sides on tho
matter if they hate any concern for
the moral welfare of tho county nnd
its various communities. Neutrality
is impossible fur the earnest-minded
man.
H is not too soon to take a de
cisive stand on the question. We
bebexo theio is every reason to hope
thn't tho undertaking to restore
the saloon will prove u failure but
our hopes will not bo renlizcd un
less thcie is n strong effort made

ference or Iuko-wnrmncss with rc

the success of tho cause. The advo

to see that the feeling of the people
who favor prohibition is not mcrc
