scheme was to engross the prohi-

out Of an effort of the Democrats
to make political football OF the
joint and concurrent resolutions

April election in St. Louis and
other cities approached carly in
April, it became evident to the
Democrats that they must pre-
vent the brewery and saloon in

pub'icans or submit to defeat. In
order to intimidate those interests
the threat of prohibition was re-
sorted to. Democratic leaders,
who for many years. have oppos-
