Last week an important meeting of prominent Republican farmers was held In Columbus a t the Invi­ tation of Chairman Jones of the State Republican Committee. The object of tho meeting was to have the farmers endor# the Spraguo congregational bill, which was done, and the McDermott liquor license hill, but this was rejected by a vote of 89 to 5 regardless of tlie fac t th a t Gov. Willis had askad for such an endorsement. The action of the farmers proved quite a surprise as much was ex­ pected of them in giving their support to the new license measure. S. A. Deltrick was chairman of the meeting and Mr. Halverstolt of Marion, secretary. T* G. Laylln, of Huron, former master of the S tate Grange Was chairman of the resolution committee time refused to endorse any kind of a license proposition. The position these farmers have taken is identical with the views of thousands of temperance people tha t will vote against tho Mc­ Darmott law next Tuesday. The public was tricked in the adoption of liquor license following ths con­ stitutional convention a few years ago and i t is not probable th a t temperance people will be mislead next Tuesday in giving their ap­ proval of anpther form of license law. As the law i» now the Gover­ nor of ttta state is responsible for the issuing of licenses and law en­ forcement. Under the McDarmott law, if i t is adopted, the politicians are given complete control of tho license situation which means no law enforcement and a probable re­ turn to the open Sunday saloon in tho wet cities. ‘‘S in s O f A Father Polite Vaudeville Between Acts.
