Resolred, That We respectfully call
on the anti-prohibitio' lists of this
county and State everywhere to organ
iZe clubs, am! in all future elections
make prohibition the main issue, to
the end tnat Kansas be again free, and
future governors Of this common
wealth no longer see the necessity to
offer large rewards to spies and in
formers I'd see that legally elected off,
GERS or our largest counties and cities
do obey the law.
