tCnPetuuSS AAuoss'
The saloon supplies the weapons
for the uuceasing and deadly war
upon &ke,home.
When liquor dealers are busy, the
devil is glad.
Drink revenue is wet with tears
and stained with blood.
1 Many a man has drifted into the
drink habit through the advice of
physician.
"There is no plague that scourses
|ao lash that stings, no fire that
burns with such baneful heat as the
legahzed rum traftic-this blot of
sloss upon civilized nation
When the American conscience is
no longer stifled at the ballot box,
the American saloon will no longer
exist.
poverty never drives q man to
drink unless he wants to go; bat
drink drives a man to poverty
whether he wants to go or not,
Il would be like dynamite under
the saloon. if just where he is the
. minister would begin active work
{. against it; if, Just where he is, the
voter would cast his ballot for Pro
hibition.
The liquor question is the domi-
nant question in American politics
and the party that deals not with it
is born blind.
When saloon-meu are p.ating to
voters about the vast gosd done BY
license money they forget to tell how
much it costs to support the magis-
rtrates, the courts and the Jails.
"The making, selling or using of
Intoxicating beverages is a wrong
against the public welfare, and all
the legislation in the world can not
change the fact one way or the 9TH
er."
The mistake of the State is in
locking up the drinker instead of
the drink.
1.-The devil soon gets a mortgage
upon the man who drinkS-and he
already owns the man who sells"
Every dollar spent 'at the saloon
bar comes out of the grocer, baker,
butcher. dry goods man, and such
others as are ministerlng to the
needs of life.
''The almighty dollar still rules.
1t is that which upholds the liquor
traffic and shuts the mouths of hosts
of Christian voters. 1t is time for
Moses to descend from the mount
and waken the conscience of Israel
promenading around the golden
calf
"The way ont of the liquor curse,
aad the way out of every social
course is through ali enlarged con-
ception of the dignity and destiny
of man."
The saloon by its political infu.
ence, is peril to every free and
sacred institution of our nation.
Instead of the revenue from the
LIQUOR traffic supporting the govern
ment, the government must support
the traffic.
All other kinds of poisoning are
. few in comparison with those oc-
pSs;oaed bs the habltuai use of
strong drink.
The personal liberty of one
man should not spell personal slav-
cry for another.
The Bible presents stronger
Prohibitory Law than was ever
written on the statute books Of any
commonwealth. 1t is the law of
Christian Brotherhood and makes

The whisky Business Is forever
urder the ban of Christ. Temper
auce work is Christly work. So the
Christian cannot compromise here
and remain a Christian.
The great danger which threatens
the American people is not the ar
mics of Eurofe, or Chinese boy
colt, or an excessive high tariff. or
impure food.stuffs, but the legallzed
liquor traffic.
Saloons may go OR, like the
brook, forever. Men may die in
them like flies and hell grow fat on
irunkardS. Girls NAV be betrayed
and boys baited hellward. Homes
NAV be destroyed and women and
children beggared, but you can an
swer. Not by my rote.''
Take the sanction of law and the
protection of government away from
the liquor traffic, and the people will
soon trample the vile thing into the
very dust.
"The world never knew worse
iniquity than lutemperance. neither
morally, socially nor financially"
The pearl that sparkles in the bot
tom of wiue.glass is only the bub.
ble called disappointment"
Drinks grip can never close on
him who closes his lips against drink.
There may be no bread at home;
but there is always beer and whisky
at the bar.
All monopolies sink into insigni.
fcance when compared with the whis.
ky monopoly.

God to sweep intemperance from the
land don't mean it uuless he is will
ing that God should use him as the
broom with which to do the sweep

"The rum. hole must De closed or
the rum hell will engulf Christen-
DOM"
eff every flask of wine produced
should be taxed $1,000, 1t would not
be enough to pay for the tears i. has
wrung from the eyes of widows and
orphans, nor for the blood it has
dashed on the Christian church, nor
for the catastrophe of the millions il
has destroyed forever
DO YOU want to take a census to

The curse of Cain is resting
this nation, and as sure rs righteou
ness is right and sin is sin, thel>
must come a day of reckoning. Look
to yourself, voter; are you carrying
the brand of Cain:
"a river of rum. mountain of
gold, a cloud of tears, boulevard of
broken hearts, a led Niagara, down
which the best blood of the nationfs
pouring, valley of dry bones, white
with million rum-m made skeletons. "
This is the terrific indictment against
this internal liquor traffic.
War is terrible, and many of our
best men have gone to their graves
through wal; but strong drink has
carried more victims TO the grave in
America than has war.
