MESA
GROWERS ENTHUSIASTIC.
Interesting Meeting Fridsy-Director Elected to Succeed B. Wingar,
 Resigned.

The Mesa Produce Growers assOci- ation held an enthusiastic meeting yesterday at the town hall with Vice President Bracket in the chair. It was the unanimous sentiment of the stockholders that the association be incorporated at once and get ready to do business. There are a number of the stockholders who have garden stuff ready to ship. The secretary has been instructed to get in communica- tion with all the reliable shippers over the country and get the association before the public.
 The resignation of Bert Wingar as a member of the board of directors and also president of the association. was read and accepted unanimously. Fred Bracket was elected as a direc- tor of the association. According to the bylaws the directors will choose president from among their number at their next meeting.
 The meeting was enthusiastic from start to finish and without a doubt the future success of the association is as sured. For a long time it has been recognized as necessary association in the vicinity of Mesa, where garden stuff is grown with profit but it re- mained for a number of the more progressive ranchers to band them selves together for this purpose. It is anticipated that the organization will be in working order within a month and that they will be ship ping produce in their own name. A special poster is to be prepared which will be on every crate or box of pro- duce sent from this place. This will not only give the association stand ing. but will advertise it along the road and at it's destination.

God himself hath sworn that he

limit is to die, to die as if by

Mr.. Editor, 1 want the voters
to consider the nature of the op-
posing forces in this battle of
the "Arnageddon, in which
God is pleading with the nations.
On one side we see God and
the angels and the spirits of just
men made perfect and mighty
host of patriots, men, woman
and children, arrayed on one
side. And on the other Satan,
the great arch-fend, with legions
of devils and lost men, followed
by some of the ignorant or errlng
sons of earth. l want the voter
to think seriously which side he
believes God is on and then vote
accordingly, for we all believe
that God is on the right side. For
Right is right, as God is God
And right the day shall win,
To doubt would be disloyalty.
To falter would be sin"
Then letius press the battle to
the gate and ALL vote for pro-
hibition, and come up as one
man to the help of the Lord
against the mighty.

If you vote for liquor, throw
off your sickly, csnting hyprO-
crisy, quit the church and be
faithful to the devil, whose SER
want you are.
If prohibition did not prophibit,
the whiskey league would not
spend money to buy your votes,
nor hire broken down politicians
to do their wicked work.
If you vote the whiskey side,
be frank about it, and though
you must be ashamed of it, let
your wives, sisters, mothers and
neighbors know you have enlisted
for the devil.
If liquor is a good thing why
not have it near the churches of
North carolina.
Do you want a saloon near
your home? If not why near your
neighbor's home, and which one
of them? =
What are the boys of North
Carolina worth to the State? Are
they not worth more than all
the saloons ever paid into the
State treasury?
Neighbor, what is your boy
worth?
For what in dollars and cents,
will you sell the home, happiness
and soul of your boy to the whis-
key league?
Building a City on Blood"
was the subject of a recent temp

That is what every city does that

If YOUvote for the manufact-

or" YOU cannot escape respon-
sibility for the crimes committed
by men who buy it, drink it and
are crazed by it.

ter the chance of a lifetime to
serve his country in the most vi

COOdGI ICarSOn
ON Prohibition

To the Editor: Affections and
suffering have, up to this time,
prevented me from taking any
hand in the great prohibition
movement now on foot. But
with your permission I cannot
let this occasion pass away with
out saying at least a good word
in behalf of the temperance
cause.
This great, non-partisan upris-
ing of the people against the
drink evil, this glorious Christian
enterprise appeals to the heart
of every man who has any of
the milk of human kindness
in his soul.
want to let my friends and
my enemies know where | stand
on this great question. / believe
that the cause of prohibition
and of temperance is the cause
of God, and l believe thaa the
Whiskey business is the Devils
business. | believe that every
man, woman or child that makes
it, or sells it, or drinks it as a be-
verage. or advocates it, is doing
the devils work. And | believe
that any editor Of any newspaper
who will, for filthy lucre, oppose
the cause of prohibition, or any
public speaker, who for like
consideration, will go through
this, country and make stump
speeches against prohibition and
temperance and in the interest of
whiskey and any voter who will
sell his vote to the cause of
Whiskey, are each and every one
of them, and all of them sunk so
low in moral degradation that it
would take at least two miracles
to save them. In the first place it
would take an extraordinary mi
racle to bring them up to a level
with human depravity, and after
that it would take the ordinary
miracle of Grace to save them.
In gratitude to God for mercies
past, and in hope of blessings to
come, feel authorized and called
by the Spirit of Divine Truth to
warn the men who are leading in
this evil work that they are
treading dangerously near that
unseen line that markes the
boundary betwe en- God s patienc
The French Broad hustler. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1896-1912, 1908-05-21

Only one question, Is it posi-
BILE that men will vote to estab-
lish an instution inNorth Carolina
which all admit ha but one result
namely, the destruction of every
other instution which we gladly
support by service, money and
prayer? 1t is preposterous!Absurd
To the voters!
Voters: Do you realize that this
election offers you a chance to
bless every man, woman and
child in North Carolina?
This is no political question.
Great men in both the great par
ties are nightly advocating the
noble cause at issue
Every ballot powerfully says
My owner respects the church
values the schools, prizes his
home and loves his country, or it
terribly says: My owner desires
to say he condemns the church
despises the schools, destroys the
home and betrays his country!
Reader what shall your vote say?
Seventeen great words accu-
rately describe the liquor traffic:
''Tree of all subtlety and mis-
chief, thou child of the devil, thou
enemy of all righteousness.
Behold the wicked origin, the
sneaking natureand the malicious
purpose of the most notorious en-
emy of every heart and home of
our land! This monster must die!!
Say: I'll help kill it'll!
Among those who will vote
against prohibition are some who
have surrendered to a vicious ap-
petite, others who propose to deal
it out to their fellows for blood
and some who have set a price
on their small influence.
Unrestricted personal liberty
means brute force; then the
weak are at the mercy of the
vicious and strong.
Civil liberty permits men to do
as they please without injuring
others, but there personal liberty
ends.
| believe in local option. This
election is local option on a grand
scale. The state is the locality.
If you vote for liquor, you vote
to open wide the throttle and let
the engines drive the mills that
make criminals and drunkards
of the boys.
Is not the boy of your neighbor
worth as much to his parents?
The French Broad hustler. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1896-1912, 1908-05-21

By voting for prohibition you
will personally help reform many
a helpless drunkard, release from
poverty and torture and slavery
scores of heartbroken sisters,
wives, and mothers, and save
them shame, squalor and unspeak
able suffering hundreds of sweet
little children of drinkers, distill-
ers and dealers. Reader does your
bosom carry a heart that will en-
snare manhood, enslave woman
hood and slaughter the innocents? ?
Yes, or No. which?

THE WORKING MANS MONEY

In one of our large cities a lab
oring man leaving a large saloon,
saw a costly carriage and pair
standing in front occupied by
two ladies elegantly attired, con-
versing with the proprietor.
Whose establishment is that?"
he said to the saloon-keeper as
the carriage rolled away.
1T is mine, /" replied the dealer
proudly. 1t cost thirty-five
hundred dollars. My wifeXand
daughter cannot do without it. -
The mechanic bowed his head
a moment in deep thought, then,
looking up, said with the energy
of man suddenly aroused by
some startling flash, 'I see it!
I see it!
''See what?" quired the saloon
keeper. See where, for years,
my wages have gone. I helped
pay for that carriage, for those
horses and gold-mounted harness,
and for the silks and laces for your
family. The money that have
earned, that should have given
my wife and children a home of
our own, and good clothing, I
have spent at your bar. My wages
and the wages of others like me
have gone to support you and
your family in luxury. Here after
my wife shall have the benefit of
my wages; and, by the help of
God, l will neve spend another
dime for drink"
