and democratic positions on the part IF
a great many Of the members who
voted tor it.
Let ne explain: A large number
of the representatives are opposed to
the prohibition OF the liquor traffic.
They say that they believe in the re-
striction and proper control Of thai
traffic by wise legislation, but do not
believe in its entire suppression and
abrogatisn. This they do on what
they are pleased to call constitutional
grounds We had supposed that many.

cere and honest in their professions.
Now. however, we write them down,
without hesitation, as q lot Of hvp-
critics Or fools. They cheerfuIly make

one is capable Of the greatest evil. OF
working out the greatest curses upon
