where mo LICENSE" FAILED.

Worcester, Mass, once heraided
as the largest no-license city In the
world" has had It's experience with
prohibition theories, and at the re.
cent election, when the liquor ques-
tion was again submitted to the peo-
pie, voted for return to license"
The reason for this was that the
methods of the Prohibitionists had
been given fair trial and found
wanting.
Worcester decided, by the ballot,
against the licensed saloon at it's
election year ago. The problem
of license or no-license came up
again. and there was energetic work
by both the Prohibitionists and the
'wets." The "wets" won by an
overwhelming majority.
Up TO the moment that the votes
were counted, even the most ardent
advocates of license were in doubt
about the result of the election. The
city had gone dry by compare
lively small margin In the previous
election, and at the best, the license
advocates hoped that they might win
me battle by similarly small ma
IJorlty of votes. But the policy of
granting licenses carried by a sur
prisingly large margin.
Oddly enough, Mayor James Logan,
candidate for reelection, was vigor-
ously opposed TO the license plan vet
tDe was elected over his opponent by
u big majority.
The reports of the contest convey
ne interesting information that
speil-oinding" had little to do with
Ithe result OF the election. It is in

Because men will go TO great lengths
to drink liquor and to sell it; because
police captains will accept brides; be-
cause juries can be packed and
will refuse to convict; because officials
will betray official trust and prostitute
judicial forms, they the liquor gang say
we cannot prohibit the liquor traffic.
Which is TO say, that this is govern
ment of the weak and the vicious, for
the weak and the vicious, by the weak
and the vicious, government OF de-
generates and traitors. A victory for
the amendment will do more than any
other one thing 10 denounce that insult
TO the great state OF Florida. This
amendment denies that the civic power
is in the hands OF saloon controlled Off
Gals; it declares that THE PEOPLE are
to organize and administer the govern
ment on the basis OF making it easy for
bad men TO be good and good men to be
hetter, and that children may have
decent chance for a clean, prosperous
and happy life; that the people ought TO
rule; that what they ought TO do THEY
CAN DO.

The Saloons Contempt For Law


The saloon tells us that II we prohibit
its business by law it will break the law
1t tells Us that by doing so it will bring
the law into contempt and thereby teach
our young men TO view the law with
contempt and TO become generation OF
Iawbreakers. All of this is true. The
saloon will do these things and more.
But while this is so, | fail TO see where
the violation of prohibition law will
have any more of a tendency TO produce
contempt OF all laws than the violation
of a regulation law has 10 produce con-
tempt for present laws. And II the sa-
loon is to make business of breaking
laws and holding them up to contempt
and ridicule, would just as soon have
il break one as another.
A law prohibiting the saloon does,
however, reduce the consumption OF
liquor and il reduces the amount of in
temperance and drunkenness, as well.
For these reasons, if for no other, !
should vote for the amendment.
There is also another reason why
shall vote for the amendment, and that
is because the saloon interests are
against il. Those interests are not fight
ing for me or my business or my boy
or for you or your business or your boy.
They are fighting to perpetuate THEIR
OWN PARTICULAR BUSINESS. Lin.
coin said that when II came TO a contest
between the dollar and the man, he was
on the side of the man; the dollar
could take care of itself. By the same
reasoning, when II comes 10 a question
between the saloon and the boy, am
on the side of the boy; the saloon can
take care OF itself. II the saloon must
have some one TO stand for it, TO speak
for il, TO vote for it-whether under the
guiSe of "local option" or regulation"
or whatever may be IFS refuge-it will
have to get some one else to do the
speaking and the voting, decline 10
do il. do not profess TO be any better
than the average man. Possibly ! am
worse. don't think any of us have
great deal 10 boast about. But whatever
| may have TO answer for when the day
for answering comes, there will be al
least one thing which can never be laid
at my door and that is the responsibility
for the open saloon. may not be able
10 abolish the saloon, but If il Is to con-
iinue to exist IL will have TO be over my
protest II some one must be response
Bile for its existence, the responsibility
will have to rest on other shoulders; il |
cannot rest on mine.

How To Stop
-
Stubborn Cough

We don't mean just stop the irri-
tation in your throat-but cure the
underlying cause.
Cough syrups cannot do this. 1t
takes a constitutional tonic body
builder to do the work properly
and cure you to stay cured. Vinol
is the remedy you need.
HERE Is PROOF
Mrs. Minnie Osgood, of GIens Falls,
n. Y, writes:- "After trying several rem
edies for a bad cough and cold without
benefit, was asked to try VinoI. 1t
worked like magic. 1t cured my cold
and cough and gained in health and
strength. I consider vinol the most
saw"
Ii we cannot stop that cough
with VINOL-our delicious cod
liver and iron tonic-which is made
without OLIVE will not charge
you a cent for the medicine you
buy. This seems like a pretty fair
proposition-and ought to be ac-
cepted. Don't you think so? With
this understanding we ask you to
try a bottle of VINOL.

The bodies OF seven men, all vic.
tins of the recent hurricane, were
washed up by the waves at Punta
Gorda Six of the seven were sailors
on four Spanish fishing smacks which
went to pieces near Boca Grande dur
ing the height of the storm. 1t is also
believed that seventh spaniard was
drowned, but nothing has been seen
Of his body. The other fatality was
a negro, badly decomposed, who is
believed to be the same who drove his
team into the Peace river on
bridge which washed away as he got
half way. There are many more men
missing in that vicinity, and IL Is
likely that the toll Of the hurricane
will reach ten drowned.

It's the close OF the campaign. Most
of the papers of the state have said their
last say for the statewide amendment.
Now that it is too late TO refute their
false, misleading statements, the organ
lied liquor gang at Jacksonville will
burden the mails with them in the hope
OF stemming the tide ofvoters who have
already made up their minds to support
the amendment. Look at these matters
thoughtfully. The liquor gang has no
morals, no conscience. They will ''lie
like hell" to secure votes. Why shouldn't
they; Isn't the liquor gang the envoy
extraordinary and minister plenipoten-
tiary OF He'll to the United States? AS a
gang, isn't il doing its full share to make
hell on earth? Remember this when
you read their death struggle misstate-
ments-their covert appeals for a con.
tinuance OF power in Florida.
