LEAGUE DENOUNCEs PARTY
"Omnipartizan" Leaders in Conference at Des
Moines Determine to Ignore Prohibi-
tionists in the Future

Especial Dispatch to the Inter Ocean,
DEs MONIES, Iowa, November 12-At secret
session of the central district convention of the
American Anti-Saoon League this afternoon it
was decided tc adopt a policy ignoring the Prohi-
bition party entirely. Trickery on the part of the
Prohibitionists during the recent campaign in Ne
braska was openly charged.
1t was further declared that amalgamaton with
the Prohibition party had resulted in failure and
defeat for the Anti-Saloon League in every state
where it had been attempted
State superintendent present asserted that the
Prohibition party was their greatest foe in
the fight to secure the election of legislators
favorable to temperance legislation
National Superintendent P. A. Baker pointed
out disadvantages of cooperation with the Prohi-
biton party
