their wages.
Beer and Meat Eating
You are not free if YOU can't spend
part of your wages on yourself, rs
you please, after you have looked out
for your family. What is beer, any
way? Beer is a vegetable food. Look
at the German race. The Germans are
the pink Of perfection, and they all
drink their beer. There are about
100000 600 invested in breweries in the
city of Wilmington. They want to con-
nscate them. Now what is to become
Of them If the prohibition law goes into
effect? Why, they will be turned into
slaughter houses, where animals win
be killed. for when you cut out beer
it means that you require more meat,
and that means more animals TO 30
killed The law of God says: Thou
shalt not kin, and yet prohibition
means more killing and the violation of
Gods law Should prohibition go into
effect, it means that employers, believ-
ing that less money was spent for
drink, would cut down the wages"
Chairman Saylor was followed by
Gallagher. who declared that prohibi-
ton had damaged every community in
which it had been tried. That It had
stagnated business. IF prohibition
gives you more wages. I am in favor Of
prohibition" Continuing Mr.. Gala
CHER said: 1--WE don't need college-bred
men to make laws for US. I don't want
no man TO come and tell me what
want. I am going to have what I want,
and I don't care who likes it or who
don's."
Mr.. Gallagher concluded his remarks
by advising every one to vote for his
personal liberties.
Hogan in Action.
William ]. Hogan declared that II the
prohibitory law should go into effect in
this city that the people would flock to
Chester to do their buying and that thous-
ands of dollars would be expended there.
"A law passed against the win of the
minority" said Mr.. Hogan, will surely
cause that minority to violate the law.
These prohibition people, if they had
their way. would say to you, do you go
to church, No Wen then go you
sucker and would use a black snake
whip to force you 10 go. If I had my
way the saloons would be open on Sun
day.
Hogan said he would not debate with
Mrs Lake as he did not believe in fight
ing women.
Mr. Hogan added that he would not an
swer any questions owing to the fact that
on the night previous persons stood be-
hind his back and fired a line Of questions
at him which had no bearing on the sub
ject.
Hogan again took up Mr.. spa'd. "Why
he came up and shook hands after he had
attacked me. What a nerve" said Hogan.
sarcastically. "And he is going to answer
me in church." continued Hogan. i guess
there won't be many Of you there to hear
him."
Portrays a Drunken Man.
Mr.. Hogan was emphatic in declaring
that the Business Mems Protective
League or the liquor men had nothing to
do with their meetings "Why, if we want
to light into a barkeeper who doesn't do
right we shall do so.Y sad. the speaker.
Hogan at. one time during the meeting
showed that he was an actor as well as
an orator. Relating an incident after the
Fifth and Market meeting he said that
a group of Prohlbitonists were discussing
his speech when a drunken man brushed
into them and said he, (the mani was
from Maine and that is where he learned
to drink, The speaker showed how the
drunken man reeled into the group Of
Prohibiuonists.
The speaker looked at his watch and
said he had an appointment with busi-
ness men who were aiding the campaign
OF the league. "for It takes finances to
run IT," said the speaker good naturedly.
When the speakers climbed down a
patriarchial looking citizen with a white
beard, who had been taking notes and in
dulging in curb stone talks with others in
the crowd wanted to mount the wagon
for talk but he didn't do SO.
There were a number of warm discus
sions among the crowds on the side but
on the whole the gathering was very ord
erly. At Twelfth and Orange streets the
meeting will be held tonight and Chair
man Saylor stated that there were many
calls for the wagon from all parts of the
city. The League proposes TO keep it NOV

During the meeting speaker Hogan an
