B1t. IN regard to state prohibi-
bition. we think differently. One
Iofths oldest principles for which
the Democratic Party stood was
that OF local self government.
They did not believe that one
portion of stats had the right to
dictate what the other section OF
that state should or should not do
ia matters OF this kind. We be-
lieve with the oldtime Democrats
| in this and while rot condemn
fnS anyone for advocating what
ihsy believe to be right we reser-
We the same right to our own op-
iaions that we allow others.
| The Anti-Sslooa League has
done q great deal OF good il this
and other states and will doubt
Iess contizue their good work.
/ hey deserve much praise for the
perseverance and the sell sacri-
AciHg spirit which they nave dis,
lpl=yed, Still we do not always
agree with tAen Bor do We be-
heve that Virginia will be ready
for state prohibition until every
county il the state shall have
abolished the sale of liquor by a
Sufficient majority.

NJ * +Lolg LEAGUE
- STATEWHE PROHIBITION

7 newspapers Of the State that
'the Anti-Salooa League OF Xir-
ginia has made declaration in
favor of the passage OF a State
wide Prohibitory Law. These
statements have apparently been
based upon reports of speeches
made by some perscSs who are
connected with the Anti-Saloon
League work. The position of
the Anti-Salooa League upon
this question is found in the re-
port Of the Legislative Committee
adopted By the Anti-Saloon Lea
que Convention on February 9th.
II9oS.
We favor the principle of To-
cal option in carrying ON our
work Of the abolition Of the sa
loon; and if we are given such
legislation as will present evasion
of the law and as will provide adj
equate penalties for law violation
and as will give full opportunity
for fair expression Of the wishes
OF the duly qualified electorate.
We see no good reason to depart
from our present policy. But, if
vie cannot obtain legislation that
will protect us in our rights and
give relief to the people from the
present comfortable evasion and
violation of the law. we shall be
obliged to change our method
and demand the right to vote on
Statewide prohibition.
This is the last official utter
ance OF the Aati-Saloon League,
and no one has any authority TO
advance beyond this positioA and
claim that in SO doing he is rep
resemting the hnti-Saloon L ca
que. Individual members Of the
Neague may express their own
personal views, and they may be
given such weight as may seem
proper to the public; but until tie
next Annual Convention in Nor
folk on Feb. 10th. 1909, the pol
icy OF the Anti-Saloon League is
IS that outlined in the above res
olUtion. So far as the nnderSign-
ed is Informed. no person cor
Rscted with the executive force
Of the Anti-Saloou League has
made any declarations that are
inconsistent with the policy dein-
ed IN the above resolution. This
policy has been pursued consist
emily by the. League during the
past year. and under this policy
the saloon has been voted out Of
the cities of Winchester, Dan
vile, Fredericksburg, LyEcbbure,
Suffolk, and a number OF smaller
places. 1t is the purpose to car
~ on the work Of agitation and
education in Petersburg, Ports
mouth. Newport News, Norfolk,
and Richmond, and in all other
wet" communities Of the State
and as soon as conditions Justify
il local option elections vii! be
held,
ONo one is authorized to state
what policy will be adopted by
the League at the Convention in
Fubruary, 1909. Should any
change De made at any time ia
the future. it will be based upon
such facts as will amply justify
the change. In the meantime,
the League viii continue it's cam
paign of education of public GEN.
tinent against the saloon, and
will follow in the future the sane
and conservative methods which
have commended it in the past 10
the favor and support OF tbs
good people Of Virginia.
