Editor Leader: The contest nov
on in Missouri is the most vital
one in all our history. Never be-

fronted with an enemy who seeks
to dominate completely our public
life and rule at whatever cost.
Every issue in former times was
one Of policy on which people
could honestly differ. but this is.
sue is not such. There is abSo-
lutely no truth nor right nor VIZ
tue on the side of the liquor trafiir.
This issue involves the very life
of the home, and the home is the
pillar of the state. The liquor
traffic is a great wrong. not wrong
incidentally or occasionally but
absolutely and fundamentally
wrong first, last and all the time.
1t is a common criminal without
one redeeming feature. 1t can
not and will not be regulated AMI

population is small, but it's a busy

pitable people, charitable to marked
degree.
