Dr.. Satterlee closed the meeting with q
short speech, every sentence of which de-
molished pet theory of the license ad-
vocate. Among other things he said:
"The advocates of high license had
been driven into the position of defend
ing it per Sc. They are obliged to uphold
1t as system. They tell Is that it is not
permission but restriction, and it is this
line of sophistry that we must fight all
through this campaign. They go back tc
a state of barbarism (the only place they
can go) and tell US that there we find the
right to sell intoxicants exists as FREQ as
the right to sell anything else. But even
then the liquor dealer would be a criminal
because the manufacture and indiscrim-
mate sale of poison is q crime against ma
ture. But society, finding this state of
things, makes laws taking away this
right from the individual. 1t gathers up
all these snakes that were crawling about
promiscuously, puts them into an iron
cage, and then gives to certain men, for
q consideration, the right to make holes
in the cage and let out the snakes. And
these holes they call restriction! But
they say, Now, there are too many of
these holes So where there were ten
holes before they make FIVE and let out
all the snakes through the five holes.
But they say that license is a punish
ment, a fine on the business. What!
Fine man for crime before he has COM
mitted it? That is indulgence. There is
no restraint in high license, and it isn't
intended there should be. In the country,
where $1,000 fee would sometimes
amount to practical prohibition, they fix
the fee at $500, so the dealer can pay it
and continue the business"
. Such were some of the arguments pre-
sented to an intelligent audience, many of
whom were delegates to the general con-
ference of the M. E. church, who will
carry the same truths and retail them in
every state and in hundreds of cities and
towns in our land.

candidates on the submission issue Such
action is not right, not wise, not good
politics: 1.-THE Prohibitionists of Lancaster

workings of the high license law which
has lately gone into effect in that state
that they have decided not to nominate a
separate legislative ticket. They seem to
have reached the sensible conclusion that
the Republican party, which adopted this
measure, is the most practical means Of

been published in all the city papers, and
ignorance of the character of the places on
