AN APPEAL.
Rev. A. 3. Carhart Addresses the Pablic
In Q Formal Letter.

Rev. A. q. Carhart Addresses the Pablic
In . Formsl Letter.
The following has been handed THE
COURIER for publication, and in ac-
cordance with our custom to permit the
outspoken opinion of any man to
occur in our columns we present it
for the readers consideration and not AS
the opinion of The COURIER.
FELLOW CITIZENS: May not have
q few earnest words with you relative
to the liquor traffic?
These words are written without a
shadow Of personal prejudice of any
kind, but wholly with view to the
common interests of all.
There are three petitions in the hands
of our city clerk.
One OF these asks for an election next
Monday to determine whether we legal
ize saloons in Elk Point or not.
The others specify that Wesley Gull
laume and Gillett & Close are all men
Of good moral character, and the petit
TONERS pray that licenses to sell intOxi-
eating liquors In our town be granted
to those men.
The assumption seems to be quite
general that our people will give right
Of way to the saloon, and that our city
administration is to be conducted in
their interests.
Let me call attention to the following
points:
l. For years Elk Point was prohi-
bitiOn town.
2. The people have never yet asked
for q return OF that enemy of all man.
kind-the saloon.
8. Cases OF drunkenness, disorder,
damage and even death have been mul-
tiplied among us by reason Of its return.
4. Our present salOonkeepers, who
now ask for legalized opportunity to
continue their course OF ruin, actually
sold the liquor which slew Attorney
FAwcett, and the whole tendency OF the
business 10 to produce like results.
5. The business, II continued among
us, must lead to the gradual ruin OF
many, and to the absolute and horrible
destruction Of some.
6. Many families must be impov-
erished, and many hearts filed with
anguish while the saloons remain.
I. Young men and boys four sons)
will surely take the places OF those who
persisted through drink; while our
daughters will grow up to lives OF
misery-perhaps to worse than death.
8. A . financisl proposition, the
saloons are the most inveterate foes OF
all business interests. The probable
trade OF legalized saloons in Elk Point
will be go, 600 per annum. The in
direct DAMAGE nv reason AZ idl0noas
poverty, increased gambling, and other
vices will be e2O, 600 more. Every dol
lar Of this large amount il drawn from
the trade Of our Elk Point merchants.
I. The saloons invite to town gang
Of vicious, criminal and thriftless men.
These by their presence poison the
morals Of our young men and women,
and incits 70 the gr0ssest type Of life.
10. We cannot subject our children
70 an evil envir0nment and eecape
reaping the sad fruits Of our evil SOW
Ing.
