At the temperance meeting at the
| Kansas Avenue NJ. E. church Tuesday
evening, Judge Carver made a practical
temperance address, urging the necessi-
ty of voting only for well known tenn
perance men, after which the following
| resolutions were introduced: Whereas,
The state of Kansas has constitutional
and statutory prohibition of the liquor
traffic; and, Whereas, We believe the
public sentiment of the state on the
evils of the sale and use of intoxicating
liquors to be in harmony with the law
and the constitution; and, Whereas,
The laws of the state in regard to this
I
sentiment studiously and contemptuous-
ly thwarted; therefore be it Resolved,
That we, the Temperance Workers of
North Topeka, hereby favor such state,
county and township organization as
may most effectively unite the entire
temperance sentiment of the state into
one homogeneous power that will Sc
cure the enforcement of law and there
by the actual suppression of the Hquor
traffic. Resolved, That we recognize in
this issue the one dominant political
question in this state, upon which the
temperance voters of all parties may
consistently unite regardless of their diff
ferences upon other issues, and there
fore we invite such harmonious Chris
Iian unity, and, regardless of our polit-
ical affiliations, pledge ourselves to vote
for the hest temperance men that may
be nominated by any political party 1or
state. county township or city offices,
between this and the next presidential
campaign, during which time no great
national issues can be introduced unless
for buncombe Resolved, That in this
line of action we recognize the highest
degree of nOn-partisan policy, and we
therefore urge the State Temperance
union to at once place itself in favor OF
such policy, and that it Immediately de-
clare its purpose to support in the next
state campaign the best known and
that may be nominated, and none 9TH
ers. regardless of party names, anG we
suggest that this determined purpose
should be announced in unmistakable
terms before any party conventions are
held.
