nccted by the interests Of the liquor uattic. /
Tine battle Is on in Nebraska and we must I
take "A bold stand. We commend the action /
OF both the republican and popuist parties !
or Nebraska In openly declaring Tor /
county option. Nc also admire the cout- ,
agC OF all political leaders in our great ,
statb. who have boldly pronounced against 4
Daihmanism and the dominion of rum and !
pledge our support only for men to office |
Wild are uncompromisey In favor of every !
measure looking TO temperance reform and
clean politics. We approve the plan OF
the temperance society OF the Methodist /
Episcopal church in setting apart one sun
day to he known as Worlds Temperance
Day" namely November IS, and ask all
pastors and churches to observe that day
and,
whereas. The Aanti-saloon league is a
practical federation Of all the churches
and other organizations opposed TO tue
saloon and IL is recognized by the liquor
interests as the best differed, best
financed and best legally advised orEani-
cation in the country and the general con
ference of our church has uneduevocally
endorsed this organization and our mem
bers are subscribing literally to maintain
the same !. therefore, be il
Resolved. That wehearuly endorse the
present administration of the league IN
operate with this federation with all other
societies that are opposed to the liquor
traffic. and that we hereby recognize the
Anti-Saloon league as our official agency
through which to secure advanced temper
anco legislation, and the retention OF all
desirable liquor laws now on the statute
books and we ask all our people to loyai
support of the league and pledge ourselves
To do our utmost in support of all candi-
dates pledged TO the cause OF county op-
ton in Nebraska. We rejoice In the
growth of the anti-saIoon and temperance
sentiment all over our state and nation as
a result of the quickenlng of the public
and individual conscience; we hail with
with pleasure the effectual WORK being
accomplished by the Anti-Saloon league TO
secure the speedy overthrow OF the liquor
people the present activity of the brewer
les. distilleres and the so-called personal
liberty clements. We believe that the next
session of our state legislature should
enact and have placed upon our statute
books a county option law. We believe
that Nebraska is face to face with crisis
on the temperance question: therefore De II
Resolved by this annual conference that
we publicly and privately urge our people
to support and vote for, only those candi-
dates who have declared themselves in
favor of the county option law that viii
give to the entire counties the right TO
prohibit the saloon. We are unuterably OPP
posed to J. c. Dahlman's election ,as gov
