WHITE RIBBON ECHOES
* C p , -.* * ** * *C *
Never has "King Alcohol' ha.
such good reason to tremble as to
day.
Boys and girls who twenty-five
years ag shouted, "Tremble, King
Alcohol, we shall grow up!" and
whose heads. heart,. hands and feet
have been trained for temperance
work in public school, Sunday school
and the L. T. L., through the untirinlg
efforts of the W. C. T. U. have pro
eeeded to grow up, and are suiting
their actions to their words.
The child who two score years ago
was taught by a W. C. T. U. mother,
the meaning of her little white rob
bon bow and who at the twilight hour
prayed for the temperance cause, as
her hand rested upon his little head.
is today a temperance warrior, bat
tling against home's direct foe.
Already nine States stand for pro
hibition and others are falling in
line. Four counties in this State are
soon to have an election to vote out
the dispensary.
Our union is considering the pro
priety of holding a bazaar similar to
the one recently held in this city by
the Elks. The proceeds to begin a
fund for a "Temperance Hall."
"Walking up Main street one,
night I saw a thirteen year old boy
standing in front of a saloon. "Well,
Harold, this is a queer place for you
to be! Why are you looking in
there?'" Looking me square in the
eye, he said: 'When my father was a
little boy, he went up and down this
street looking for his father in sa
loons, and now my mother is sending
me to look for my father, but I will
never have a boy looking in a saloon
for me. I'll die first.' And I have
watched him through these years
that have passed, working hard to
keep in school and to reach his ideal,
and I know that he will reach it, for
he is striving through Christ.-Wm.
F. Gibbons in S. S. Times.
Temperance workers in the U. S.
are fighting what is equivalent to a
capital of $3,500,000,000. That is
they are fighting in all 3,632 distil
leries and breweries, 17,111 wholesale
houses and about 225,000 saloons.

LAWS ON USE OF WATER
ALL IN A SINGLE VOLUME.
Washington, Nov. 2.-The nation-'
al convervation commission is corn
piling for publication in a single
volume all the laws and court de
cisions, both State and Federal, which
relate ~to the use of water in the
United States. This manual will be
of immense practical value and it is
somewhat remarkable, considering
the wide number of interests which
are touched by these laws, that no
such compilation has been made be
fore this. With the constantly grow
.ing demand for inter-State water
ways, the increasing utilization of
water power for the development of
electricity, and the widening areas of
semiarid Western plains that are be
ir.g made arable through irrigation,
those liws at the present time affect
th~ ;.iorests of a wide variety of in
divia! '1 and corporations, and in

or other purposes. In the book will
be included also some authoritative
discussion of the principles involved
in those laws.
The national conservation commis

of all the States for assistance and
the renlies in every instance have
promised support. Considerably

A single- volu!elit cionit-ainhs:i all the
laws which bear npon the use of wa
ters in the various parts of the coun
t'ry, will be an exceedingly u.eful
reference handbook. I- holds possi

that make ready cm arison poSsible,
lO only the e:eral lendenlieS of the
laws and deci.:Ons on this subject,
but the di(repaleies that exist be
tween the regulations of different
Stat es.
The fear is frequently expressed C
that the tendency towards monopoli
zation of water power. which has al
ready made very great progress in
some parts of the country, will re
sult in practically all of the ex- iC
tremely valuable natura resource I
passing from the people as a whole
into the hands of comparatively a C
few men, with resulting higher cost
of water power and water developed
electricity to consumers and a tre- I
mendous advantage to the few pos
sessors. If this danger is justified
by the present laws, it is a matter of
great importance to make this fact j
apparent at once. Fer this purpose
nothing could be more effective than
such a presentation of all the laws on I
the subject as that which the com
mission is preparing.
