LAW ENFORCEMENT. m < Last Friday night at midnight constitutional prohibition became effectlve throughout America. This was an event that is memorable in the history of the nation?an event that has been the dream and hope of many people for years and years. Now . that it is an accomplished fact, the " people of the country should unite in its enforcement. Even the most rabid anti-prohibitionists concede that if enforced prohibition is a great thing. In the interest of good government, it is the duty of every loyal citizen to assist in bringing about usch a healthy sentiment that prohibition will be possible not only as a law but in reality. Prohibition is possible only jfV - j when the people unite in desiring its enforcement. It may be unfortunate for constitu uonai proniDiuon luat it uecumes eifective during this present era of unrest. From another viewpoint,^radical changes are so common now that perhaps it may be the most opportune moment for the appearance of this law, which has been inevitable for several years. The people have seen what the barroom is. The people of the nation are, without a doubt, overwhelmingly opposed to the further operation of the saloon. Even states like New York ratified the law by large majorities. ' But there is now a very serious danger to be faced?that of the illicit liquor dealer or maker. The character of the stuff that is made by these bootleggers adds to the horror of this situation.

Prohibition and all other laws car be enforced, but it will be the people i after all who will do most towarc achieving this end. Officers can onlj do what the j)eople they represenl want them to do. When a majority 01 the people of Bamberg county reallj ! want prohibition enforced, the officers will have no difficulty in doing it. Court meets in Bamberg next week, Will the liquor makers be allowed to again pay their license to the court and go scot free? It may be contempt of court to stand up in the courtroom and suggest to the court what ought to be done, yet we are almost persuaded that if a number of good citizens should do it they would not be punished. W. J. BRYAN. The ghost of Banquo has nothing on the Honorable William Jennings <? Bryan. Many times defeated, he vcomes to life again with a rush. The newspapers look with varying solutions upon his latest break into the ; front page. Some credit him with i seeking the Democratic nomination at San Francisco this summer; nobody credits him with what is verj I likely his real reason for coming | again into the limelight, namely, a genuine desire to advance the welfare of his fellow man. We are no Bryanites. We think it would be a partj misfortune to nominate him for president, because the present outldok is that he would repeat his past performance and go down in defeat. Bui for Bryan the man we have a greai deal of respect. We do not mean tc say that we sanction everything he | has done, but he has performed manj noble acts for which he deserves the thanks of the people. We did nol admire the way he showed the white feather and left the Wilson cabinet in a crisis, but we do admire his efforts to secure peace in the world. In the present instance, though, we are oi the very candid opinion that Bryan Dueer It is I Wh A Good On / tST-CLASS LINE OF GING SODA, AND : ry a Bottle Just Whistle?the \ erg E Igr. L. J&A.
