beginning with the phase Clement
ism is dead" The Herald retaliated
with a scrathing denunciation of
Gov McCulloughs methods in the ia
nous campaign of 1902 declaring
that private revenge rather than
public policy dictated the Banners
article. The Herald has its opponent
easily knocked out in the first
round and the Banner should hest

SHAH bennington Vote License9

With the present agitation in pro
gress in favor of no license in Ben
nington the thoughtful citizen should
consider carefully the question in or
der to vote for the best good of the
town.
1t is no argument in favor of no Ii |
cense that the state has in mean |
and narrow spirit taken away the IL
cense fees. To vote no on that &C
count would be to join hands with
Clarence Ferguson, the discredited
superintendent of the anti-saloon
league, who poses as a leader in
movement for morality and virtue,
but finds it necessary to bolster up
his cause by untruth and blackguard-
ism.
1t is not an argument for voting no
that somebody has been drunk or lost
his job through drinking. Men have
been doing that thing for a thousand
years and will for another thousand.
No law to control liquor traffic is an
entire success and never win be un-
til humanity improves to a marked
extent
The poorest argument advanced in
favor of voting no license is because
one is disgruntled over the distribu-
ton of licenses and things of that
character. No matter by what board
or by whose authority this part Of
the business is done. there will be
some injustice done at some time and
all cannot be pleased.
1t all falls back on the main ques-
ton and the one that should be de
cided on its merits-How can we best
control the abuse of liquor?
In order to make no license effec
tive the no vote must have back of il
public sentiment that will compe
the enforcement of the no mandate
1t would be silly to vote no and ther
4 expect the law to enforce itself. /
takes a strong local sentiment to en-
q force a police regulation in the mat
ter of morals and personal conduct
Has Bennington that kind Of sent
y ment.
Under the old prohibitory law Ben
: nington had from 20 to 40 saloon
and those saloons we're open "a hour
a day and seven days a week. Wit
the present system the eight saloon
in town are all closed on Sundays an
at 10 O'Clock at night. In our opinio
the condition here has very great
improved under the present law. W
believe that the law and the way
has been enforced here has bettere
the moral conditions in town.
We would gladly urge the either
to vote no il We believed they wei
ready to enforce no. A no yot
backed up by a genuine no sentimen
= is a desirable condition in any tow
but we do not believe that the sen
ment in Bennington is yet of Il
n kind to make a no vote anything b
~ farcial and abortive.
Il Any man is justified in voting
10 who is willing to stand up open
and support the no he votes. We I
respect citizens of this kind. b
N. the man who votes no because he h
res a crouch and merely kicks
cause the law is not enforc
is not helping his town
by voting no. The question has be
no pretty well agitated here a
the voters should turn out
. large numbers and decide the rest
according to their best judgment.
