mons, but am impelled from sense of duty
to say To your correspondent, Il. PluribuS
Unum. that NV statement. which he eyi-
IDENTITY does not believe and Al which he saws
the community was surprised Is neverthe-
less true. and was not written impeuously or
without due reflection and deliberation do
not doubt his statement as to his own expert
ence 10 the contrary 1t NAV be that he and
others have not lived quite as long as ! have
or had knowledge of something's that happen
10 know: but even admitting that no liquor
seller now would dare confront the blaze of
ditfused light on the subject by refusing the
request not to sell to husbands. sons or broth
ers. when asked not to do so by wives, mothers
or sisters. still the very fact of such requests
being made is a powerful argument against
the business which gives occasion for such re-
quests. The more | think over the matter
the deeper Is my conviction that all good
citizens ought to unite in an effort to stop the
licensing Of men to sell Intoxicating drinks.
which is wrong in every possible view, In
so far as the law iayors it, the good citizen
should vote to have the law changed.
