SUGGESTION FOR NEWS
; ITEM.
Letters bave been received by a
number of local business men who are
parties to a contract for a Chautauqua
to be put on by the Lincoln Chautan-
qua System ir this city next summer.
_According to these letters the judg-
ment of our leading business men in
inviting this System to our community
will be very richly justified.
It reems that strong as were the
representations made for the Lincoln
System concering their programs fin
their communities, and their business
relations as well this coming year a
very marked improvement is being
made! General Manager Wilson of
this System is paying fiifty per cent
more for his talent than was paid last
vear. This, then, certainly bespeaks
a great week of entertainment for our
people.
‘Able and trained organizers will
come inte the community and help
promote Chautauqua interest and sen-
timent among our local people’ begin-
ning some weeks before the program.
Thus the accumulated experience of
this great System is to be placed “at
our disposal. Undoubtedly a‘ good
deal willdepend upon local conditions,
but with such arrangements there cer-
tainly shoud be no excuse for falire
to fill the big tent every session of
the program.
The letters annonuce the completion
in the near future of practically all of
the plans f for the coming season and it
will probably 1 not ; be. long “until the
business men and others who are
closely interested, will be actively con-
sidering rand means, etc., with
the Lincoln management.
~Apparantly the people of Meyersdale
Pa. are to be congratulated on having
a grcup of business men who have ex-
ercised the initiative and good judg-
ment necessary to bring the Chauntan-
qua \ System with its remarkable series
of | of entertainments to our community
for next summer. The business § men
say that from time tc time they, shall
have announcements to make concern-
ing the progress of their plans.

COUNTY ANTI-SALOON
LEAGUE,
ZThe Executive Committee of the
Anti-Saloon League of Somerest
county recognizes the fact that the
manufacture and sale and consump-
tion of intoxicating liquors have pro-
duced more crime and pauperism,
wrecked more homes, ruined more
lives and caused more distress, sorrow
and suffering than any® other evil in
our land; and that the effort to ‘‘reg-
ulate and restrain’ this evil by lop-
ping off the branches of the deadly
Upas, instead of uprooting it, has nok
brought the desired relief. :
“We must have such legislation as
will make the popular will supreme.
This black plague that hovers over
our beloved state must be removed
with all possible dispatch. We want
the next Legislature to give us County
tional Amendment for adoption by
9he people prohibiting this iniquitous
traffic. And we call upon the voters
of all parties not to support any can-
didate who has no consistent temper-
ance record, and who will not, in the
announcement of his candidacy,
pledge himself, if nominated and
elected, to work and vote for County
Local Option and for a Constitutional
Amendment prohibiting the manufac-
ture and sale of intoxicating liquors
in Pennsylvania.
