commences with a dissertation on the
basis OF prohibition, III which are de-
tailed the catalogue of evils which ic..
low IL the train of intoxicants. The
growth OF the prohibitory sentiment is
reviewed, as are also the efforts WHICH
are aud have been made by those inter.
ested in the liquor traffic 70 obstruc. the
advance Of total abstinence IDEAS. The
national and State governments are held
responsible for licensing and fostering
over two hundred thousand wholesale

leading political parties are charged with
having ignored the issue Of prohibition.
hence the necessity OF organizing . new
