NEW STEP.


Miss LlDA Brooks, the talented
daughter Of Rev. John A. Brooks, In her
eloquent Warrensburg address, says:
tsThink you, young men, that you can
longer lead Us to the altar with the fumes
Of whisky on your BREATH In the name
of the young ladies Of Missouri, I tell you
defantly tell you-noi The yoanx
man who SO far forgets himself and dis
traces his m~anliness,- shaA no lo0ger daF-
ken the doors Of our pariors, much less
WOO and win our hearts and hands In
matrimony." Yes, we do. That is oil In
my eye. We know some ofas good hus-
bands and fathers and sons - there are
In the State Of Missouri, who 60 home
sswith the smell of whisky on their
BREATH" and we know some OF y beaa-
tiful, intelligent and v~fytuous young
women Is there are In the State who will
marry men who are notitotal abstafners.
The trouble with the Prohibitionists il
that they do not know the difference be-
tween 80 ,snifter" and Q jug full. A man
had better have the fumes Of whisky on
his breath than the brand Of q hypocrite
on his heart.-Sedalia Democrat.
The LEDGER will agree with Miss
Ida, (well-known to the editor Of
this paper as a bright and talented
young LADY, that young men who do
not drink sometimes make better hus.
bands than those who do, and some
times wee versa. II we had o daugh-
ter we should much prefer that shs
would marry q man who did moi
drink, but there are other and many
objections to the young men Of this
age besides drinking; but the point
we want to make now and for thu
hundreth time, is that prohibition doei
not prohibit and that the cause Of
temperance is not helped by this party
of "reformers." Miss Ida sayI
that young men who drink ''shall no
darken our parlors or WOO our hearts,
Is Miss Ida speaking for herself o.
for all the girls Of the State? Sh'
is wrong either way-young men Of
ten darken her parlors and keep he
company who drink. Her statemen
is q little strong and vindictive. /
won't work-prohibition does no
prohibit.
