SCHOOL OF FORES! RY IN
AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
At the meeting of the trustees
in June, Professor Akerman with
the consent of Chancellor Barrow
and Dean Soule, recommended
that the School of Forestry, un
til then an independent branch
of the University be made a
part of the College of Agricuture
The principal object of the change
w is to bring the school of fores
try into closer relations with the
woodlands which are under the
control of the College of Agri
c liture.
Professor Akerman, wishing
to leave the authorities of the
College of Agriculture entirely
free in their ehoice of a profess
<r of forestry, tendered his res
ig lation and went on duty with
the United States Forest service,
o which he is an officer. He
has been recalled however and
placed in charge of the work in
t ie College of Agriculture.

For thjs reason the L'chll i‘ion na
tional committee Is more eloselv In
touch with needa arid envietions
of the preut mass of peaplc throughout
the country than any other political or
ganization
This year as never before every dol
lar of support Is being stretched to the
very limit of its possibility in reach
ing the voters of the nation, and every
contribution to the national work nt
the present time, whatever the amount
may be. will count for many times
more during the nest forty days than
nt any other period in the whole his
tory of the Prohibition movement.
The Prohibition committee should
have $.",0,000 to help close tills record
breaking canvass in the most effective
and vote making fashion. In addition
to the continued loyal support of those
who have aided in the years past, and
confidently expects the co-operation of
hundreds of temperance voters who
for the first time this year have heard
the message of Clialin and Watkins
and 'he ether nrt!anal field workers.
All such contiiliutions will be prompt
ly welcomed and acknowledged if sent
at once to Prohibition national head
quarters. 92 I.a Salle street. Chicago.
Bryan Is an Anti=Prohibi=
tionist.
lion. William .1. Bryan Is also a total
abstainer, but is on record as having
voted and openly stumped the state
against Prohibition in Nebraska In
1839. when the liquor power of the na
tion concern rated Its forces upon that
state, padded the IS9O census returns
of Omaha. Lincoln anil other cities to
enable them to cover up wholesale bal
lot box stuffing, hired thugs to assault
Prohibition speakers and intimidate
voters and bought up the leading news
papers to achieve the most corrupt vic
tory ever won by tlie booze trust.
Last April Lincoln, Neb., Mr. Bryan’s
home, went through a terrific battle for
local Prohibition, which was lost by
only 178 votes. Mr. Bryan's personal
support might easily have changed the
result, but lie was not heard from dur
ing the canvass.
The Present Crisis.
The liquor traffic of America, panic
stricken at the rising tide of long over
' due public condemnation, is openly
consolidating its interests in the strong
est national organization that unlimit
ed capital and frightened greed can de
vise with the avowed purpose of mak
ing direct assault upon every local
Prohibition community and laying siege
to every state where the saloon busi
ness bas been abolished.
This means that the patriotic citizen
ship of America must take up their
gauge of final conflict thus impudently
flung down and meet them squarely in
nation wide battle or retire from the
field disastrously worsted.
Taft on Prohibition.
lion. William IT. Taft, Republican
candidate for president, is opposed to
Prohibition, championed the canteen,
delivered campaign addresses against
the Oklahoma Prohibition constitution
in 1007. Is in lorsed by P.r -h. Jones
and oilier big* brewers, and dm liquor
press of tbe nation is quoting with Ap
proval ids criticism of Prohibition laws
in “Pour Aspects of Civic Dufy." lie
has never spoken a friendly word or
done a friendly act. public or other
wise, on'Hiehalf of Prohibition.
What Killed Prohibition In
the Past.
The Mquor traffic is in politics, and it
must bo met and put to death in that
citadel. Call the long roll of states
which have in the past secured state
Prohibition and ask how they lost it.
Political bargains and treachery tell
the tale in every instance. Political
organization is the only remedy to
prevent the repetition of the same sad
story in ail the territory that is now
freeing itself from this curse.
Why is Prohibition sweeping the
country? Some definite answers to
this question will be sent any one who
Incloses a two cent stamp to Charles
It. Jones. 02 La Salle street. Chicago.
