BEER AMENDMENT
	
|   To Be   Submitted  To  Votes
In April.
*
THE PEOPLE
f
r
Should Bury It To  The Tune Of
200,000.
The bo called "beer and wine"
_:is_ndr_er>t to the constitution, initi-
a ed by petitions circulated by the
Michigan State Hotelmen'e associa
tion, wiil be submitted to a -, ote at
tue general stil^ eiei-tl-.n next April
-. The Michigan supreme court Saturday denied the application of the
Micblg&p Anti Saloon league for a
writ of mandamus to prevent the secretary of stat.' from subaiitting the
iioeodmeut at i-lie April election,
If adopted by the people tu the
April election, toe proposed amend
■lent will permit the sale of beer an'l
j gbt wines m Michigan. Onr read-
era will remember Uiat petitions
were presented to the sccreiery of
•late last year asking for the snbmiss
ion of this question but oar supreme
court ruled that the petitions were
mot in proper firm and that ended
tbe matter at that  time.
Fortunately we we shall n>t have
to depend on any outside inforrua-
ttOD aa to whether we need saloons
here again. We have had object
Jeeeons along both lines and no one
need profess any ignorance on the
•object. When the saloon came
back it was necessary to hate the
marshal! devote his entire time to
preserving >'.'' order. Previously he
a ad beeu street commissioner also
and could give most of his time to
that work. On Saturday evenings
•ne adcitiocai man and frequently
two, were provided to look after the
■ranks. At tbe present time the
office of m*rsbail is a mere sinecure
bo far as order is concerned. Weeds
(trow luxuriantly in our jail yard, and
one misses those delightful spews
that so frequently ornamented the
depot platform
Let no one take seriously this talk
afeovt "hotel men" backing thismove-
neoa. This is mere camouflage. Last
year it was the "Ucme'Rule League. "
it is tbe same bunch and tbey are
located mostly at Milwaukee. Tnev
were not satisfied with being buried
under a majority of 108,000 a short
lime ago. Let it be made 200,000 this
time and that will   end tbe   matter.
Fortunately the women cf the state
can have a hand in this. It, is possible there may be a women in Clare
■o. who would rots to restore the
•onditions that every one knows exalted bare with tbe saicoDS but we do
m*% beheye it.

A short time ago we advertised t*t
auction for James Walsh of Vernon.
As ustration of   how   newspaper
arivc, ..ning pays, he informed us at'
erward mat among   other   things   h
advertised was a grade yearling   bull.
Before the sale, a neighbor came ace
wanted to   buy   the   animal,   offering
him $45 00 for it.    While   Mr.   Walsh
was inclined to   think this   would   be
all ne would get  at   .he   sale,   tie   n
formed  toe  man    Uiat   he   could   no;
sell it as it was on the bill '.;*r  sale   »'
t h e    auctiou.       At    the     »ale   the
::-'^ial brought *62 COand was bought
by a man who came over 20   miles   t
the sale and wiio bought also a   nun.
ber of other things.     Not a   hill   war
posted  within 15 miles   of   where   th
man lived and he leain.d ot   the   sa!>
through tbe Sentinel.
This illustrates the tolly of attempting to advertise an auction by tin
use of b lis only. The best customei
at an auction, the ones that makn
the auction a great success, ne.er
sees one or the bills. Tne smal
amount spent fur an auction ad <-
iikeiy to he made two or three timer-
over on the enhanced amount receivd
for any one of a dozen articles.

Germany, on the other hand, need

Most of Russia Is already in tbe

Finland,
Bohemia,     Serbia,     Rpnrnania     and
Montenegro have already reached  the
famine point and are suffering a heavy .
toll of death.    The Armenian   popula- ,
tion   Is   falling   each   week   as   hunger i
takes  its  toll,  and  in  Greece,  Albania
and Roumanla fo serious are the food .
shortages   that   famine   Is   near.     Al-
though starvation is not yet imminent, I
Italy,  Switzerland. Bulgaria   and Turkey are In the throes of serious f trin- ;
gencles. f
In order  to  fulfill   America's v.eQRe
in world relief we will have to export
every  ton of food  which can  be  handled through our ports.    This means at
the very least a minimum of 2U.O00.000 •
tons compared with 6,000.000 tons pre- ;

If we fall to lighten the black ?po's |

peace  for which  we  foprht  ami  bled
will be threatened,   Revo   and anarchy
