THE ANTI-SALOON MOVEMENT. me Aiui-saioon movement seems to be gaining strength throughout the United States. Those localities in Vhich it Is showing surprising Strength are where, for years, the sa loons have been running wide open with no respect for the law. In Lou lsville, Kentucky, for example, the sa loon and brewery interests have con trolled the city government for years and as a, result, Louisville has gained the reputation of being one of the most wide open and lawless cities in the country. At the last election fusion ticket was put into the field to down the rule of the liquor ring. The methods the liquor Interests used to defeat the fusion ticket will go down In history as one of the most barefaced assaults upon the privilege of a free ballot on record. Fusion voters were deliberately beaten away from the polls by policemen, while the liq uor Interests secured the votes of thousands of repeaters and won the election. Their victory was short lived, however, as the fusionlsts carried the fight into the courts, and as a result the saloon-elected officials of Louisville were removed and decent. law abiding and law-enforcing men were appointed in their places. The new regime has reformed the police force, tamed the saloons and driven out of the city all gamblers and thieves. That Is one way in which the antiBaloon movement has brought about reform. In Linton, Indiana, reform was brought about in another and rather uniaue way last week. The temperance people have lately been very active. Last week they success fully opposed the granting of a license to a Linton saloon keeper. The sa loon keepers, showing more than or dinary intelligence, then effected an organization among themselves for the purpose of seeing that all obeyed the law. They have pledged themselves to obey the law with regard to closing on Sundays and holidays, and during the prohibited hours. Each man pledged himself to forfeit $25 for failure to keep the agreement, and all vol unteered to assist In the prosecution of any law breaker. Furthermore, a saloon keepers committee has offered a reward of $25 for any Information leading to the conviction of any saloon keeper selling on Sunday. Those Linton saloon keepers will not lose anything by their rather rad leal agreement. On the contrary, if they live up to their agreement and help the maintainance of the law, they will effectively stop a great deal of dissatisfaction on the part of lawabiding citizens. They may incur the petulant wrath of a few habitual drunkards, but they can well afford to do so. The majority of a saloon's customers are temperate people who know how to drink In moderation, and It is from this class that a saloon derives Its profit. The habitual drunkard Is not a source of revenue to any saloon. He is generally a shiftless wreck who eventually depends on getting his drinks by sponging on the generosity of friends who know how to drink moderately. Many times the habitual drunkard brings his saloon into disrepute by making a disturbance and being arrested. Considering these things it Is very plain that the saloonlst would really be the gainer If bre would absolutely refuse to sell Intoxicants to habitual drunkards. The action of the Linton saloonists in agreeing to aid the obeying of the law is worthy of emulation by the saloonists of every other city in the state. There is no sentiment in such a move. It is simply a hard headed business move, showing a little more than ordinary business intelligence. French law gives the authorities of every village and commune complete control over posters. "No one," writes Consul General Mason, "is permitted In France to deface streets and public places with crude and ostentatious announcements of his business " or other subjects. Bill boards are infrequent in Paris, and are generally built permanently Into a wall, where they are taxed according to their superficial area. When a building is In construction, and board screens are erected to shield the public from dust and other annoyance, such temporary screen will soon be covered with posters of amusements and other business, but each poster so displayed has been previously submitted to the authorities, a license obtained, and each sheet bears the cancelled revenue stamp, according to its size.

TALKING DOUBLE TRACKS GOSSIP IN REGARD TO INDIANAPOLIS DIVISION IS REVIVED. Conceded That Double Tracks tween Columbus and Indianapolis are Badly Needed. BeGossip Is going the rounds at the local Pennsylvania station, that as soon as the double tracking Is completed between Bradford and Coiumbus, O., the Pennsylvania will begin to double track the Indianapolis division of the road from Columbus vest. This talk has been heard for the past few years but local employes eay they think it is reasonably certain the company will make this move as surveys have been made looking toward the realization of double tracks. It is generally conceded that a double track between Columbus and Indianapolis would be the most valuable acquisition to the Pennsylvania lines west, as the traffic over this division Is immense and taxing facilities.
