Liquor Men Aroused.
CHICAGO, September 10 sh.-At the Liquor
dealers and Ssloon.keepe:s' Convention to-
day at Rock Island, the Trustees report will
&c presented showing the results Of the past
years work. 1t takes a gloomy view of the
adoption by Iowa of the prohibition amend
ment; Of the Kansas fidelity to st. John
OF Nebraska's prohibition tendency of Mis-
souri's narrow escape. and of the growth of
prohibition in south Illinois, which. they say,
is like feeble victim of this robber of dem.
ocratic government of constitutionslity and
OF individual liberty. They attribute these
prohibition successes to sloth and inactivity.
The business of Illinois, they say, is threat
ened. The Board has been organizing, sgi-
tating and doing political aud legal work.
The services Of Rev. G. G. Bennett, of Iowa,
and other lecturers have been secured. This
kind of agitation is deemed the wisest,
and the Board recommends that means
be provided TO continue it. There has
been a large gain in the number of
local societies, and an increase of 40 per cent
membership has been achieved The Chicago
Wholesale Liquor Dealers Association has
been disrupted, and that class shows but lit
tie interest in the maintenance Of O powerful
organic ation. They must BE- aroused. The
membership of the retail dezlers is rs, an
increase during a yer c; 534. TIE tables
show that fully haif h CT les, villages and
towns of Illinois have b e1 won by the Pro.
hibitionists. This is an alarming fact"
The election of Judge Craig to the Supreme
Court in the Fifth District was a triumph for
the liquor interests. The election of men,
bers Of the Legislative requires active work
In November. The treasury has several thou.
sand dollars. The receipts for the wear were
SILL $50, and the disbursements Sc, 935. They
conclude that they will favor proper license
system which shsll make the trade respect
able.
