How will You Vote q?


The election to occur on next Tues
day will be taken as an expression from
the citizens of st. Clairsville, whether OF
not they desire to continue the saloons
within the corporation. A vote--Pro
hibition No, will say that the saloons are
of benefit to the town and ought to be
encouraged. A vote-Yes, will mean
that the money which goes into the cof.
fers of our saloons would be better ex.
pended if it went into the tills of our
tradesmen for the necessaries of life.
A vote No, will mean that it is better
to have saloons convenient to your
school houses, to your new court house,
to your places of business.
A vote Yes. will mean that it is best
to remove the temptation as far as pos.
sibe from youth, middle age and old age.
A vote No, will mean that the saloon
promotes good order and morals in q
town.
A vote Yes, will mean that the saloon
strikes at the foundation of society, and
that it is destructive to its peace and
welfare.
These are some of the meanings which
will necessarily attach to vote Yes, or
No, on Tuesday. Citizens, when you go
to the polls, vote as your reason and con-
science dictates for the well being of
those around you, regardless of personal
preference or inclination, and you will
have done your duty.
