TAKES DEFEAT NICELY

Goshen Newspaper Decides to Give Ligonier Credit - With Good Ball Team

The Goshen News-Times in its .account of Sunday’s ball game says: ; “Inability to hit at critical times was responsible for the defeat of the Greys by the Ligonier team, who walked away with an easy 4 to 1 victory Sunday afternoon. The Greys, however, had difficulty in hitting at all, getting but'three hits from their former team-mate, Martin of South Bend. Martin was not the only former Goshen player who appeared in the visitor’s line-up. There were Sack, and Touhey, and Black and Longenecker, and to the fans it seemed that none ever played so well with the Greys as they did .against them yesterday. Black, in center field, made three sensational catches, robbing the batters of two and three base hits.

““The Ligonier team scored a run in the first inning, when Sack scored after hitting a three bagger. Another followed in the second inning, and two more were scored in the seventh. In that inning, with two runs in, and two men on bases, and after Cotherman had walked three men in the inning, Slabaugh was sent in to relieve him. A double brought the inning to and end. i : “The Greys only run came in the third inning, and an error played a big part in bringing it safely home. After that several chances to score

presented themselves, but the batters ¢ invariably gave littlie account of themselves.””

Henry Takes a Sneak

The Goshen News-Times has the following account of the queer actions of Henry Kreager, a former resident of Cromwell: .

‘“Henry Kreager has again disapeared from home, this time taking with him certificates, stock and jewelry worthbetween $l,OOO to $1,200 according to his wife, Dr. Ann Kreager. Mr. Kreager left his home on East Lincoln avenue early Monday morning, and was seen on West Pike street before:seven o’clock this morning. |

“According to Dr. Kreager, her husband broke into a trunk, to which she carries the key, and took the articles ~which she says belonged to her.” Mr. Kreager, it is known, laid claim to ‘the articles and complained that his wife kept them locked up so that he could not get them. . ““According to Dr. Kreager, Mr. Kreager is suffering from a disease of the mind caused by excessive use of alcolholic drinks. He had been acting queerly for the past three days, she said, and it is to this affliction that she attributes the cause for his unusual action.

“Dr. Kreager promised that some actfon would be taken upon his returh to this city, but declined to be . moTe specific as to her plans.” { ® Lol | Old Time Sports Charles Inks, Sr. and Jacob Sheets, two old base ball fans from Ligonier, were seen among the Ligonier fans at ~ the ball game on last Sunday. One nob acquainted with them would naturdlly infer tbat they were boys once more, as they were fans proper from their general demeanor. They were pretty loud in their demonstrations.— Goshen News Times. o County Teechers’ Institute About 125 teachers were enrolled for the county teachers’ institute held this week and which closes this afternoon. The sessions were under control of eminent éducators and a numer of interesting lectures were defivered. Noble county is noted for the efficiency of her school teachers.

Peculiar Facts About the Prohibition ~ Agitation in America

The prohibition agitation displaced an educational movement for fiersonal temperance about seventy years ago. It found its first full-fledged expression in the state of Maine about 1850. During the next forty years seventeen states had adopted prohibition. Fourteen of thés_e cast it aside after experimenting for various periods. ' '

During the seventy years in which prohibition has been agitated in the United States, the consumption and production of liquors has doubled many times. Since the first year of internal revenue, 1863, the yearly production of malt liquors, first fo feel the effects of prohibition, has grown frbrp less than one miilion barrels to sixty-six million barrels.

Prohibition recorded most of its early successes in the eastern and northern states. At the beginning of its most recent activity all these states except Maine had gone back to license and regulation. Lute_: prohibition victories have been scored in the West and South, both undeveloped and unsettled sections of the nétion. - This geographical movement can indicate but one thing—that the older and more settled state governments want none of the “dry”’ éxperiment. ' ° '

Prohibition has alwaysbeen offered as a solution of the liquor question. Seventy years of prohibition in Maine finds this question predominant in state politics. The mostrecentelection in Maine showed a bare majority of seven hundred fifty for prohibition.. A similar situation prevailsin Kansas, the other veteran “dry’’state, wherethe public isconstantly agitated by the question of enforcement or non-enforcement of the “dry’”’ amendment.

Turkey stands alone as the only civilized nation of the earth which has prohibited li'quors successfully. Yet it is notorious that the Turks, while complying strictly with the prophet Mohammed’s inhibition against liquors, are addicted to opium and other narcotics. P -

. Prohibition is a man-made propaganda. It can find no foundation either in the Bible or in the habits and customs of Christiatis in Biblical days. ’ -

Prohibition cannot claim a single great man in history as an advocate of its destructive theories.

It has been kept artificially alive for years by professional agitation which does not result from a public demand but which labors constantly to c¢reate such a demand. Local agitations rarely spring from the people, but are engineered from the outside by an organization consisting of a few individuals who find this agitation a means of a livelihood.

Prohibition absolutely ignores the public interest in the liquor question. Itlong ago set up its theory and since that time -has been busily engaged in trying to force the people to adopt its views without modification and without a consideration of the exigencies of the times. v
