Liquor Traffic.

the senate Judiciary committee con
tinued arguments today for submis

amendment barring the liquor traffic.
Dr. James Cannon. Jr., superintendent
of the, Virginia Anttr Saloon League,
replying to Senator Borah’s remarks
that the prohibitionists would have to
convince senators that the amendment
would be the most effective way of
fighting the traffic, declared no one
could tell positively how far-reaching
the owners do not pay taexs for them
and do not keep them in the backyards
where dogs should stay.
"If there should be an epidemic of
hydrophobia there are enough dogs run
ning about the street to bite hundreds
of people and, besides, when they are’nt
afflicted witli hydrophobia, they are a
menace to the children on Greene and
other streets of the city where the lit
tle fellows play, for is no telling
when one of them will be bitten,
