The remedy you propose is Of the most
simple kind and universally known 10 be Sover-
eign. 1t is merely TO lei strong drink alone as
beverage But yon find il difficult 10 induce
people TO Try ihis remedy, and one great him
derance is that when abroad both old and young
can seldom find public house except those
which vend intox ealing drngs and at which
may frequently be seen among others, eminent
men recommending, by their dram drinking
examples all others to lake the steps that legit-
macy tend 10 incmperance. And thus while

by empowering Courts 10 grant licences. 10
persons 10 keep temperance taverns, have laid
temperance men under new obligation 10

proof that temperance houses are feasible, and
better than rum selling ones.
! To show that the friends of temperance are
under great Objection 10 extend succour TO
this means Of aiding the temperance cause, it
is proper here 10 state. that the landlord in
the country who dispenses with his dram shop
prabably cuts himself off from receiving in the
net profits Of his liquor bills, more than enough
10 pay the rent of his establishment.
Yet with all the hnderances 10 so worthy an
object, it is believed that you are both bic and
willing, 10 secure egouph patronage 10 induce
good landlord TO provide a well furnished
house.
Pledges like the following have presented

been enacted, which, if carried into effect, will
prove very advantageous 10 us as nation
Our nation has suffered heretofore, much on
account of the 'sou- killing" effects of spurious
liquors, which have flooded our country almost
to perfect inundation and we have thought
it wise in us to arrest, if possible, its maddened
course. And our Council has passed law,
which is to take effect on the 1st of January,
1912, That all persons bringing in or retailing
spurious liquors in the Cherokee Nation, will
subject themselves to a fine of $500 for every
offence, and the liquor to be poured out upon
the ground. And it is to be hoped that the
State of Arkansas will pass some law to COOP
