though | do take issue with the brother
| who preceded me. Now, we believe that
| in reaching the end toward which all
anti-hquor people are striving, we may
take the same advantage that engineers
do in laying railway up mountain
that Is, we may not go directly to the
ultimate end, by elm hing straight up the
mountain and running the risk of Slip
ping back or possibly falling outright,
but may eventually attain the height by
an easier and in the end more direct way.
Now, it seems to me |. would be wise
for oil temperance people TO sit down and
consider plan OF attack, TO see IL we
cannot advance the attack more rapidly
in the future taan it has been IN the
past This is the general principle
would lay down-that the majority
should rule. And If tho majority decides
that saloons should be run without prohs
to the individual, let them be &C con-
Quoted. There should be an eduoative
movement started that would teach the
masses the evil of drink. That would
remove one of the roots of the tree that
is sapping the life of tns nation: Then,
with the state control enforced, taking
away individual profit in the sale of
by .t1ese many means, each gong directly
at the root of the evil, we should finally
kill il outright.
"Now, as to prohibition, there is
great big il in the way. Its advocates
say, III the people would only rise against
the evil, it would soon be eXterminated,
ana hat is right, but the IF is still
there; and fear it will be long time
before it is re moved.
There are too many who do not be-
lieve in total prohibition. The German,
with his beer, and others who like their
wine at table, many of whom perhaps
favor the ABOLITION of the evils of the
saloon, cannot reasonably be expected to
vote away their privilege of doing as
they please in their own homes. They
have as much r ght that indulgence, lay
ing aside the effects Of alcohol on the
system, as you have to your coffee or tea.
When you attempt to curtail the per-
sonal liberties of the individual you raise
n strong antagonism from some of our
best citizens.
state control is free from these objec-
tions." 8
.Mr. Wright then introduced the Gotten
burg system, and showed how effectually
it had reduced the bad features of the
liquor traffic.
