The "Plea for Justice"

From the Record, Marion, Kansas,
paper ozVned by Governor Hoch).l
We have received, with the compl-
ments of Mr.. Busch-recognize the
name?-a pamphlet entitled "a Plea for
Justice" The title page announces that
it is by "a Professor in an American
University" We have taken the pains
yes, the pains-to look over the docu-
ment. 1t is plea for the saloon, and
after reading the thing you will not at
all wonder that the Professor" failed to
give his name or the name OF the Uni
versity with which he is connected In
fact very careful perusal, attention be-
ing paid to logic, grammer and style,
leads one to the conclusion that the
Professor" was very probably rolling
kegs in one Of Mr.. Busch's numerous
breweries when he was snatched from
the obscurity he adorned and directed to
rise in his majesty and make this pal
pitating "Plea for Justice" Thanks
awfully for the pamphlet, Mr. Busch.
And some day when he is sober, kindly
extend our fluctuations to the PROBES
sor, will you?

THE NATIONAL PRoHIBITIoNIsT

all internal evidence made of such CLASH
hcation a palpable untruth. The whole
life and every word and work of the
Liberator gave the lie to the libel. The
man who devoted his tremendous toll
to taking chains from the limbs of a
portion of the people an advocate Of a
moral and economic slavery for the
whole race! The accusation
answered itself.
We refrained from mention of the
curious fact. that the liquor interests
did not cite the time and place and
circumstances when Lincoln wrote or
spoke the words which they attribute to
him. So far, we have seen no
reply to the denunciation of them by
the Prohibitionists as "a fake and a
forgery"
However, we considered the matter
of authenticity unimportant. Because,
even if Our greatest American had
spoken Of controlling a mans appetite
by legislation" his whole life and
thought and action confuted any such
isolated utterance
With the single exception of the at
tempt of the whisky trade to put the
burden of the American saloon upon
the shoulders of Jesus Christ, the liquor
people have made no such blunder as
their essay to identify Abraham Lincoln
with the drunkard and the dive.

The Worst Profanity

[Dr. Joseph Henry Crooker in Unity.l
To plaster fields and buildings with
lying praises of intoxicants; to bonn
bard the sensitive minds of women and
chil1fen with false and odious glorihca-
tioIs of drinks that turn men into
brutes; and to put to foul uses the
pictures of beautiful women: What
greater profanity can curse the world?
To what an alarming extent this
PROCLAMATION has gone. If we open a
copy Of many of Our leading news
papers, the wonderful merits of some
new brand of whisky beer, or wine
are paraded before us in letters six
inches long. If we look upward to the
blue sky, the great bllboards on the
housetops, proclaiming the virtues of
some liquor, shut out the glories Of the
horizon. If we turn the pages Of many
a magazine, we see between notices of
books and schools the picture Of brew
cry or of dstillery If we lift Our eyes
to heaven we often behold the church
steeple framed in liquor signs. If we
enter trolley car, there too the lurid
appeals to mans lowest appetite are
blazoned forth. If we take the wings
of the morning and go to the quiet
countryside, even there on cliff or stable
the traffic has put its defacing sign
manual Of disease and death! What
is all this but the worst form of pro-
family?

The biggest asses on earth are the
brewers who try to make the people be-
lieve they are in the temperance bust
ness. ). The people are not fools,
even though a wealthy association of
brewers thinks they are Bad as their
beer is, it is better bait to catch suckers
with than their temperance" argument.

A Pair of Side Lights
From the Detroit Free Press.

From the DefrOt Free Press. :
The county option law has been in
force for nearly twenty-one years. 1t
had the effect of removing the Prohibi-
tiom issue from politics, but only one
county, Van Buren,, has ever availed
itself of the provisions of the law for
any considerable space of time.
From a Galveston Press Dispatch.
The Texas brewers believe that a
crusade against disreputable resorts and
unclean saloons is the most effective
weapon to fight Prohibition with and
they urge their brethren in those states
to apply this method.
