No More Whiskey Ads. From this date no new advertise- I meutB of whiskey will bo accepted by the State company, and after the expiration of a few existing con tract no wbinkey ad vertlsernenta Will appear In thin newspaper. 1'erhaps a brief statement of the rouHons Influencing thla change of ' policy would be appropriate. The j State has never regarded the legal Halo of whiskey as immoral traffic; j nor do we regard the consumption of whiskey the use without intern pern nee- ?????as a inoral wrong. There-, fore we do not. consider the publica tion In a newspaper of advertise ments of whiskey us Improper or Illegitimate. 1 1 11 1 there Is ituoiher consideration.'; A person normally orthodox and I with regard for convictions, having a few tlays for recreation during the year might convince himself of/ the morality of hunting or fishing in the wilds, on Sunday, should one of those days of recreation fall on the I, Sabbath Hut if he were n person having j consideration for the religious sent)- j men Is of others he would not oh- j I rude the fact of his hunting or ! fishing onSumlay upon the attention j of a church congregation or upon i any one who would be offended by such action. j The State has not* been petitioned ; or otherwise requested to dlscontln- j lie ad V.ert lseme.iv.ts of whiskey, but ' many of the warm friends of this ! newspaper are earnest. believers ) in prohibition, and we conceive that j the appearance of ad vert iscinents o whiskey In the State Is distasteful, if not offensive to them. We recog- j riize that their feelings- in regard to such advertising is the logical son- | t intent of those who arc prohibition ists on principle. Having reached that conclusion we have determined to surrender the "few tiiousand dol- I lars annually derived from that source in preference to publishing! advertising that is jarring to the' sensibilities of some of the State's ' readers Columbia State. .V Keinarknble Picture. !

"Men die and the world wags on,' philosophically quo tod .1. J. Mill up on the death of Harrlinan. And the sentiment can he echoed upon the passing of J. lMerpont Morgan, a much more notable personality in his way than was llarriinan. Mr. Morgan's death is a curious conformation of the. everlasting truth of the axiom that no man, howuver mighty, is indispensable in t lie* great rushing scheme of civili zation. Two weeks ago, when first the gravity of his condition was whispered, men asked, what effect will his death have? Will the world of finance sustain the shock? Will the" bottom drop out of the stock marker.' Heboid! Mr. Morgan is cold in death. The great channels of finance have abated none of their activities. The stock market pro ceeds calmly about its business. A f fiiirs adjusted themselves in a flash tn changed conditions and the tide comes in and goes out without a change in its rhythm. In a few days t he influence of the passing of the nation's financial overlord will be felt 110 more than had he died a thousand years ago. "Men die and the world wags on." Of Mr. Morgan, however, it may be said that heprohably held more power in the hollcw of his hand than that ever exercised by any one Individual financier since the dawn of creation. Mr. Morgan was known of all the. world to be straighta nd upright in bis dealings, InithAil to his word and possessed of a sincere love for his country. Dui'ing latter .years, ln*n there whs displayed 'UlVHaitiesf and utnvst over the enormous pow er of \\ 1 1 i ? 1 1 he was a sy nibel. the distrust wns not personally directed to him. The fear, was that with his death or vV. tiling oi Iter b*rtder^ toss S? rilpllloUs. less hottest. less <? rs.l'i einioiis ami patriotic t h . i; !:?.? a.ight Int.

When all is said, the great lesson stands out that in the domain of death i he man at whose i read the world shook is as helpless as the b.'gvar at liis gate; the rnillii he could buy. are stripped atvaj as so much chaff. And the other les son is that the world's work and its program arc mightier than any one man. however powerful during his length of days. Yesterday he wielded power greater than kings. Today tie is dead, and like a stone dropped i:i the ocean. the waters ???over his head, anil the wonderful activities that once hung breathless upon his worJ proceed in their ac customed groove.
