eapolis. Before the next issue of the
TRIBUNE reaches US, the battle be.
tween the friends of temperance and
the liquor gang, will have been fought
in Willmar. We are therefore anx.
iOusly awaiting to see if the prohi
bition cause is 80 strong in said city
at present, as it has been for the past
two years. We haye faith enough in
the voters of Willmar to believe that
they will not deem it necessary to re.
store the saloons to lawful rights, but
will unite and give the saloon gang a
crushing blow. Fellow citizens, when
you 60 to the polls next Tuesday,
think in pity of the many victims OF
rum, which are being ruined on every
hand, of the many boys who could
grow up to be useful men, but for Zig
uor are now miserable wrecks, of the
many homes through our dear land
that are ruined by rum, Of the poor
creatures who partake in the crime
and depravity which exist when the
liquor element reigns.. Can you with
any upright conscience vote to further
the interests of this ruinous traffic:
Can you vote to see humanity degrad.
ed at your own door? If not, the1
vote against the licensed saloon.
