It Is stated that the taxpayers oi Polk county, Iowa, in which Des Molncs Is located, will save 119,000 by the closing of saloons. "Since the many thirst parlors have closed their doors and paid off their help the courts have taken a semivacatlon," says tho Des Moines Capital. "Ine briate and Insane asylums have taken down the 'Standing Room Only' signs and report that business Is falling off 'something fierce.' The levy for the state Institution fund has boon re duced for the first time In the history of Polk county. Last year the levy was 1 mill. Now It is .8 mills, a differ ence of .2 mills. The levy for court expense has been reduced .3 mills. Last year's figure was 3 mills. This year It Is 2.7 mills. The net reduc tion for the two funds amounts to half a mill or 119,000. "County officials explain the reduc tion In the court expense levy by the fact that dry conditions have greatly reduced the number of cases. When the saloons were running on all six cylinders, a big percentage of cases were of the Intoxication variety. With the saloons running full blast, the county derived a revenue of $25,000. Taxpayers are now saving $19,000 with the bars out of business only nine months." CAPITAL AND LABOR BENEFIT. When the Brunswlck-Balke-Collen-der company some time ago announced Its Intention of discontinuing the man ufacture of bar fixtures, because there was no longer a demand for them since prohibition had closed so many saloons, the liquor press sent up a howl declaring that prohibition had thrown hundreds of men employed by this company out of work. Investiga tion has shown, however, that the company had received Immense orders for Edison phonograph cases and sim ilar work and that not one man has been discharged as a result for the diversion of the work Into different channels. Not only this, but It Is assorted that the number of men em ployed will be Increased rather than diminished, and the change is general ly considered by business men of Du bitque as favorable to the labor mar ket. WHAT 13 THE MATTER? As one state after another outlaws the drink trafllc the astonished liquor men ask. "What's the matter, any way?" That question Is easily an swered. The thing that's all wrong Is liquor Itself, and the people are find ing It out. The dispensary plan; the high license plan; the government owned saloon; the family liquor store; Sunday closing; early closing; strict supervision; abolishment of free lunch, music, tables and games; the system of having only one saloon to so many population; local option all of these are mere subterfuges. They aro quack remedies. They do not go to the root of the evil which Is liquor Itself. The only cure for the liquor evil Is the complete prohibition of .its manufacture and sale In the whole na tion. Kansas City (Mo.) Times. NO NEED OF JAIL. The following statement appears In the Mall of Los Gstos, a prohibition city in Santa Clara count)', California: "During the last four months It has cost Los Gatos 75 cents for prison ex penses. Ono person was arrested dur ing this period and 75 cents was paid to take hlra to the county Jail at San Joso. This 1b a mighty good record for a city of 3,500 people Another mat ter Los Gatos has been without a Jail for months." TRANSFORMATION OF BREWERY.

Part of the cost you pay In por son; the remainder will be the heri tage of future generations." SERMON ON TEMPERANCE. Perhaps Kitchener, being an Irish man, was In the congregation when the priest gave tho sermon on temperance which ended with the Impressive words: "Drink Is the ruin o' the coun thry. 'TIb drink that steals your wages. 'Tls drini that makes ye beat your wIveB. 'Tls drink that makes ye shoot at your landlord, and 'tis drink that makes ye miss him." Tho Inde pendent. WEST VIRGINIA'S STAND. "West Virginia," asserts " Commls-: sloner Fred O. Blue In a recent Inter view, "will never again permit the le galized sale of alcoholic beverages, and will never again enter into part nership with the liquor business. "Wo will never go back to it for the purpose of raising revenue and it--I an Insult to the Intelligence of our people to suggest If LIQUOR TRAFFIC AND FARMER. If all the distilleries and breweries were closed the farmers' market for com would not be affected. The liquor traffic uses loss than i per cent of tho five loading grain crops of the land. For every bushel of grain used by the brewerlos and distilleries more than forty-four and three-fifths bush els are used for legUlniute purposes.
