Prohibitions.

BRO. MEAD II have just been read
ing Bro. Snnett's letter in your pa
per, and fully indorse the facts there
i'm set forth, especially what he says
about Introducing prohibition into
our Antimonopoly organization. We
cannot have too much temperance,
but prohibition is quite Il different
thing. Temperance il not only a
moral virtue, but it i also a chris
tian virtue: for, il Holy writ be true,
no person can be christian, and at
the same time q drunkard. There
fore. il the cause Of temperance can
be advanced 10y interdirtinS laws,
christianity can also be advanced by
the same process, and il that be so,
we want no more fooling about this
matter, but instead Of prohibitory
liquor amendment, let us have the
constitution Of Iowa SO amended as
to fix the religious status Of every
person in tho state, and thereby
bring about the millennium ut once.
Yours for the cause Of tho people,
