Graham P. Hunt, general coun

Ohio, practically every industry in
the state would be called upon to
make up the tax deficit by special

taxation called "business licenses'
which have been adopted ky the
prohibition southern states.

Labor
Opposed
Ti Prohibition
The Federation of Labor of Ohio
seriously concerned about the
proposed prohibition amendment to
be voted on at the election Novem
ber 3. Meetings are being held
over the state and resolutions In
opposition to it are being adopted.
At a recent meeting of the Col
umbus Federation strong resolut
ions were passed in opposition to
making Ohio dry.
The opposition is based on the
fact that should prohibition prevail
not less than 100,000 men would be
forced out of employment and iheir
source of employment wiped out.
It is said that under present con
ditions that it would be absolutely
^necessary for many of these men to
seek employment in other states,
tor the reason that so many are now
idle, and there is so little demand
for help in business and industrial
pursirts that a most serious situa
tion would be developed.
The resolutions point out that
those backing the dry movement
should be working to provide more
employment instead of for a meas
ure that will lessen it.
The dignified attitude of the
Home Rule Association in its cam
paign for the adoption of the Home
Rule Amendment suffers nothing
in comparison with the bitter war
fare by the various candidates of
the political parties.
Charges and counter charges of
insincerity and cowardice are made
daily, and if all of them were true
it would seem that not one of those
seeking elevation to places of pol
itical honor is worthy of it.
On the other hand the Home
Rule Association has only sought
to lay its case clearly befo-e the
voter in an unbiased manner, with
a dignified argument for its adopt
ion. Misleading statements and
unwarranted attacks on character
prove nothing except that those
who utter them lack truthful argu
ment to support their contentions

CARLYLE ON WAR.
When Men Kill Men Between Whom
There Was No Quarrel.
What, speaking in quite unofficial
langua.ee. Is the uet purport and up
shot of war? To my own knowledge
for example, there dwell and toll In
the British village of Dumdredge usu
ally some 500 souls. From these, by
certain "natural enemies" of the
French, there are successively selected
during the French war, say. thirty able
bodied men. Dumdredge, at her own
expense, has suckled and nursed them
She has, not without difficulty and sor
row, fed them up to manhood and
even trained them to crafts, so that
one can weave, another build, another
hammer, and the weakest can stand
under thirty stone avoirdupois.
Nevertheless, amid much weeping
and swearing, they are selected, all
dressed in red and shipped away at
the public charges some 2,000 miles
or, say, only to the south of Spain, and
fed there till wanted. And now to
that same spot in the south of Spain
are thirty similar French artisans "from
a French Dum-lredge. in like manner
wending, till at length, after infinite
effort, the two parties come into ac
tual juxtaposition, and thirty stands
fronting thirty, each with a gun in its
hand.
Straightway the word "fire" Is given,
and they blow the souls out of one
another, and in place of some sixty
brisk, useful craftsmen the world has
sixty dead carcasses which it must
bury and anew shed tears for. Had
these men any quarrel? Busy as the
devil Is, not the smallest! They lived
far enough apart were the entlrest
strangers nay, In so wide a universe
there was even, unconsciously, by com
merce, some mutual helpfulness be
tween them. How then? Simpleton!
Their governors had fallen out, and in
stead of shooting one another had the
cunning to make these poor block
heads shoot Alas, so It is in Deutsch
land, and hitherto In all other lands.
Still, as of old, "What deviltry so ever
kings do the Greeks must pay the pip
er!"—Thomas Carlyle.
LIFE AND ITS TENACITY.
Plant Germ* That the Most Intense
Cold Could Not Kill.
In reply to a number of questions
regarding rife and its tenacity, here
are results of biological laboratory ex
periments made by Dr. Paul Becquerel
of Paris university:
Seeds and spores of plants were
sealed in glass tubes. All air was
removed to the extreme modern vacu
um limit, and then the tubes were sub
merged in liquid air during three
weeks at the temperature of 310 de
grees below zero F. and under liquid
hydrogen at the temperature of 418 de
grees during seventy-seven hours. Aft
