Ami-Saloon League of America Said to Huvo CHloc(-l Ijuiiiciihc Sum From CI lurches for Prohibition Work Heavy CoiiuiiInmIoii Puld for Collection Little of (he Fund Used In Actuul Work It Is Charged. The Model License League of Amer. lea hug Just sent out a circular let' ter which calls attention to the work' higs of the Antl-Saloun League of America, and that the public may know the sentiment on both sides of the prohibition movement this circular Is published. It Is as follows: We desire to call your attention to the published fact that a former so. licltpr of the Anti-Saloon league of America has offered to give the Anti- Saloon league 11000 for permission to have the books of the Aotl-Saloon league examined, and thut his former solicitor bus also offered to pay all of the expenses Incident to the ex amination of the accounts of the Anti Saloon league. So far the Anti-Salon league of America has Ignored the .offer. Regardless of your Btand on the liquor problem, we think that you hould advocate a policy of public ity on the part of the Antl-Baloon league of America. The foremost political parties of the United States are favorable to publicity In connec tion with campaign funds. If the po litical parties are willing to make pub lic the names of those who support them, with the amounts subscribed, and also to account for the expendi tures In connection with the political campaigns, It would seem that an or ganization such as the Anti-Saloon league, which levies so largely on the people In a semi-religious and scml politlcal movement, should be anxious to render an accounting. If the Anti-Saloon league Is a high ly moral organization, it should have no subscribers that It Is ashamed of, and It should have no expendi tures that are not Justifiable on the highest moral grounds. The charge has been made that the Anti-Saloon league is headed by a coterie of men who are waxing rich at the expense of those who are con tributing -funds for the express pur pose of relieving the community of the evils Incident to the existence of the Improperly regulated saloon. The National Model License league has been Informed that four state or ganizations, namely, those of Kansas, Qklahoma, Arkansas and Missouri, have broken away from the Anti-Saloon league because these state or ganizations have believed that they wore not being treated fairly finan cially by the Anti-Saloon league of America and that other state organi zations are expected to follow suit in the near future. , It has been charged in the press that the Anti-Saloon leaguo of Amer ica goes into a Btc, forms a state organization and permits the collect ing of funds from the churches and Individuals by the local officials, In consideration of a commission of 2'A per cent of all money collected. It Is also alleged that the Anti-Sa loon league furnishes speakers in state campaigns at the rate of ISO per day, the money being paid, not by the Anti-Saloon league of Amer ica, but by the state organization la the state In which the campaign Is being waged. Further, it Is said that the Anti- Saloon league of America Insists upon controlling each state organization through the appointment of' state superintendents chosen by and kept In office by the national leaders. Further, It Is alleged that the na tional leaders Insist upon controlling the state Anti-Saloon league publlca tions and making these publications subsldary to the national organ, n poper said to be conducted by this same coterie of leaders and for their material benefit. It Is also charged that the Anti- Saloon league pays from 15 to 75 per cent for the collecting of funds for the benefit of the Anti-Saloon league of America, and the National Model License league has been Informed that out of 11,000,000 collected from the churches last year by the Antl-Sa- oon league of America, $750,000 was spent In commissions and salaries. If It Is true that of $100 given to the Anti-Saloon league only $25 Is de voted to the purposes for Which the money Is subscribed this ' fact, It seems to us, would be of great Inter est to those who are contributors. The National Model License league has been told repeatedly, and has reason to believe, that several of the eaders of the Anti-Salon league start- I cd Into the organization as poor men and that they are now rated as men of great wealth. A showdown on the part of the Anti-Saloon league, we think, .wodld be of peculiar Interest to the needy pastors who see their con gregations give hundreds and thou ands of dollars yearly to the Antl Saloon league. 1IVI1HII) WHEAT VI ELD BIG.

C. Reinke barn, which burned a few days ago, Marshal Cole found a bone which, when taken to Dr. Henry, was pronounced to be the bone of the wrist of a human.

Tho general quotations on grain throughout the country were, some what weaker yesterday than those of Thursday, but in the Lewiston mar ket no change was made, says the Lewiston Tribune. Tho quotations remained at 76 cents for bluestem and 73 cents for club. Asotin takes the distinction of having made the largest number of early sales on the new crop. ' About 4 0,000 bushels of Turkey Red was sold there yesterday at 75 cents. This wheat grades bluestem. As bluestem brought 76 cents In Lewiston, It Is seen the mnrket In Asotin, is but 1 cent below that here. The fact that buyers are purchasing at these prices In Asotin is taken as an Indication that thot upper river Is not long to remain without a boat service. In fact suggestion was made yesterday that by October the O. R. & N. boats would again be In service. All the grain marketed at the upper river warehouses depends upon the boats as a means for getting the wheat out to market. Estimate was made yesterday that not more than 8000 bushels of the new crop reaching the Lewiston warehouses has yet been sold, and practically no sales are reported from the warehouses along the Lewiston Culdesao line.
