WIN Prohibition Prohibit?

Wc submit that there is no reason
why the State cannot just as easily en-
force prohibition law, not engaged in
selling whiskey as beverage, as it
can engage in the business as u State

for it

Tho waters Of the Lithia Springs
are odorless, free from color, with a
pleasant saliney taste, rather palat.
able When taken in considerable
quantity, they do lot nauseate, purge,
or produce any feeling of discom-
fort. find from the analysis Of the
waters, they contain Chloride Sodium,
Carb. Potash, Carb. Soda, Carb.
Lithia, Carb. Iron and Sulphate
Magnosia. These waters act directly
upon tho mucous coating of the
stomach and alimentary canal, they
arc powerfully Alternative and tonic
They aro everything to inAamed or
lrrltated surfaces. They act upon
the blood, changing it from acid to
alkaline. In Indigestion, Catarrh of
Stomach and Gastrelgia, supple
monted with proper dict, they are
a certain cure. The action upon the
kidneys is marked. Tho Sodium,
Potash, Soda, Iithia, are tho best
solvents of uric acid, all calculi of an
acid character, whether litary or

confident that tho profession will find
it very nsoful in casea where this

Can II Christian Vote for the DIspcnsary. :.

This is II serious question and one
that every Democratic voter in the
c0urty will have to answer for him< elf
before he casts his ballot. don't be-
liCvc he can or vote for any man who
will support such Il measure. One Of
the greatest evils of the dispcnsary law
is that it attempts to make respectable
what VIC have heretofore condemned
and Outlawcd as a disrcputablc business
fnr man to engage in, and when Il man
talks about having been prohibitions
ist ali his life, but is now a supporter OF
the diSpcnsary, whiskry has convert
cd him and he has no further place
with the prohibitouist5. The very
fact that he admits he has been convert
cd to the sale Of whiskcy by the dis
pcnsary law is one Of the strongest
arguments for its defeat. J.
