THE BOOZE QUESTION.

1t is indeed a lot of drivel that
comes through the mail nowadays
to the county newspaper man. \
letter from the Constitutional a.
mendment association says that
now is the accepted time" to
put prohibition through Missouri
that the people of the state are
ready and anxious to vote on the
mOmentOus subject that the dam
nable traffic must cease immedi-
ately. A circular from the Anti
Saloon league calls our attention
to the fact that the time is not
yet ripe for a statewide vote in
regard to the knocking out of
the iniquitous rum shops; that
the state needs a wide and thor
Ough campaign of education {;
that for the present the best re-
suits are obtainable through To-
cal option, which viii gradually
lead. to the departure of saloons
from the state.
A pamphlet from the Model Lii
cense league enlightens us to the
effect that prohibition where it
is tried is a total failure; that
absolutely no booze is impracti-
cable and undesirable that we
need saloons, but properly regu-
lated saloons. A book from a
large brewing concern gives us
the valuable information that
beer is healthful and, if properly
used, beneficial that the prohibi-
ton wave has reached its height
that the free-born American cit
liens will not give up their lib
erty.
A post card from a distillery
offers us six quarts of red-eye
for some advertising.
An anonymous letter asks why
our spineless, sickly jelly fish rag
does not come out on the side of
righteousness and stand for the
crushing out Of the vile hell-holes.
1t is easy to understand why
the beer factories are being en-
