0'NEAL SPEAKS
AT DADEYILLE
DELIVERS ADDRESS AGAINST THE
AMENDMENT BEFORE CROWD
ABOUT $50 PEOPLE-DEFEND
THOROUGHLY SATISFIED.

Dadevil1e, November 4.-(Special1-
Emmett ONeal of Florence spoke to a
packed courthouse, containing probably
$50 people, today In opposition to the
proposed amendment to the constitu-
ton. He was introduced by Mr.. Lackey
of Dadeville, who said in Introducing
the speaker that whether he agreed
with Mr.. O'Neal or not in the present
fight he certainly believed him, from a
long acquaintance. to be absolutely sin
cere in his convictions, and paid a fine
tribute to Mr.. O'Neal personally.
The speaker made Il strong speech
in support of his side of the question,
charging that the amendment would not
add or detract one iota to or from the
present prohibition laws. He urged that
it was the creature of his excellency
the governor to continue his popularity
with the people of Alabama and to die
tate his successor.
He said that the burden of proof was
on the amenders to show good cause
why the constitution should be amend
ed at this time, and charged that they
had failed to measure up to that bur-
den.
Colonel O'Neal said that the amend
lists had charged that there was no
connection between the Fuller and Car
michael bills and this campaign, and
tn ere was no reason why those bills
should be brought into this discussion
at all. Mr.. O'Neal, however, insisted
that they were connected with this
campaign in that they were all drawn
up by the same man. and should be
taken as an Indication of what the
same leader might do under the amend
ment If, the amendment were adopted.
He said that the legislature might
pass laws prohibiting a man to have
any liquor at all and such law would
be valid under the amendment. in spite
of the fact that Mr.. Weakley denied
that such a law would be good, be-
cause, the speaker said, that under the
Wilson law the regulation of liquor is
left to each state under its own police
laws. and passes out of tn hands of the
federal authorities as soon as it enters
the state.
The defenders are thoroughly salts
fed with the meeting and with the
crowd.

The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1909-11-05

Bishop Lillis of Kansas says: THE
laws now on the statute books of most
states are sufficient for the proper
regulation of the liquor traffic, but in
many instances these laws have not
been enforced, have been winked at,
or have been enforced in a haphazard
manner Consequently new legislation
is the almost universal cry, but to my
mind this fever for new legislation,
however honestly it may be seeking to
remedy the evil, far overshoots the
mark"
The historian Gibbon says that the
decline Of Rome was the result of a
multiplicity of laws. Alabama has been
afflicted with the Comercratic legisla-
ture. which legislature passed more I'M
constitutional laws than any four Leg
islatures preceding it.
The Alabama voter is not ready to
ingraft a new and dangerous doctrine
into the organic law.
There is something more important
for the people than regulating rail-
roads, or even regulating the liquor
traffic. 1t Is the regulating of a mans
home. If you vote for the amendment
you surrender to the legislature the
right you now have to regulate your
home and your habits!
Well, it was a political parson, ]. o.
