Liquor Interests Are Laying Plot tC
Entrap the LabOrer

Entrap the LabOrer
The saloon, which is the greatest
enemy to labor and the large class
of men who must earn their bread
by the sweat of their brow, is always
trying to make the laborer believe the
saloon is his friend. No organization
will be led into this trap. The "Free
Press is calling upon the trade" to
help the printers, as follows:
"The Typographical Union is now en-
gagged in a struggle for the eight-hour
rule and the closed shop, and it would
be we'll for every liquor man to do what
he can to help the boys along. The
labor people have always been the
friends and patrons of the liquor trade,
and the trade should support them
wnen they are in trouble. 1t may not
be long before the labor people may
have chance to help the liquor people
to get square deal
IF every liquor man will make 1t his
business to demand that every bill and
business card and statement and piece
OIL advertising matter that came into his
place shall bear the union label, it will
not cost anybody a cent, and it will be
appreciated by every friend of organ
lied labor. Then the trade will have
valuable friends to call on when the
time comes for friends to come to the
front for the cause of personal liberty"

This will not help the cause of labor.

not stand for it.

Who Does the Calling?

Every politician thinks he is called
by his country. Some of these ilk are
very much mistaken. A good story for
such is the following: 81 believe" said
a candidate to an old farmer, "that my
country is calling me-" eff you air
alludin' ter that noise that you hearn
jest now" said the granger, 'you air
somewhat mistook; it wuz nothin' but
the old mule a-brayin' in the lot" This
is applicable to some men that now
want to go to the legislature. 1t is not
their country calling them, it is not the
better element of our citizenship call
ing them, it is not the church people
that want them to run, but the saloons
and the saloons only. The bray is the
same as that of the old farmers mule.

he met friend, and being hail fell
low we'll met, he invited him into
"Bill's'' for a drink. There. were others
there and the father treated the crowd,
and then threw down dollar that just
paid for the drinks.
Just then the saloonkeeper's daughter
entered, and going behind the bar, said:
Papa, I want one dollar for my spring
hat
"All right" said the dealer, as he
pushed to her the dollar just laid on
the bar.

A Farmer Gives Some Good Reasons
Why He Thinks 1t Is

J. D. Brown, prominent farmer of
Antioch neighbOrhoOd, and we'll known
in Rossville, wrote the Press the follow
ing letter this week:
Hoopeston, Ill.
Editor Press: I would like to take
the privilege of expressing my senti-
ments on the anti-saloon question.
I, as farmer, think we, as farmers,
have a right to express our sentiments,
or at least throw our whole soul influ-
ence into crushing down the saloon
element of our neighboring towns.
We, as fathers, do not know what
influence our sons and daughters are
while in association of those who come
under the saloon influence. AS an ex-
ample is the farmer who depends on
hired help. If the saloon we're not in
nearby towns it would not be so much
a temptation for the man who drinks
moderately to drink frequently and
sometimes long.
I know of a case where man who
was working for farmer who tried in
vain to persuade the farmers son to
taste the liquor he had gotten in
neighboring town and which might, in
many cases, have caused the farmers
son to be drunkard. Therefore, we,
as citizens of our neighboring towns
and all other places, should throw our
influence to put down the liquor traffic.
We often hear fathers of family
say: cit will not hurt me and my fam
lily" I cannot resist asking whether
you, as fathers, are sowing the seeds
of righteousness before your family and
others as you should.
Dear Christian people of Rossville,
earnestly pray that you be successful
in this election J. D. Brown.-From
