The Platform
/. The prohibition home protection party in
national convention assembled acknowledge
Almighty God as the rlghtlul sovereign Of all
men. and from whom the Just powers Of gov
crnment are derived 10 whose laws human
enactment should conform. and that peace,
prosperity, and happiness only can come TO the
people when the laws Of the national and state
governments are in accord with the divine will.
2. That the importation, manufacture, sup.
ply. and sale Of alcoholic beverage created and
maintained by the laws Of the national and
state governments, during the entire history Of
such laws, is everywhere shown to be the bro
noting cause Of intcmpcraucc, with resulting
crime and paupcrism, making large demands
upon public and private charity, imposing
large and unjust taxation aud public burdens
