On November Sth. eleven
amendments to the constitution of
Missouri, will be voted upon.
Amendment No. 10 is to prohibit
the manufacture and sale of in
tOxicantS.
At that time voters viii have
a chance to rid their beloved
state of beer, rum, and ruin; to
say that Missouri shall not be a
dumping ground, nor a base of
supplies for the drinking men
whom nearby dry states will no
longer tolerate within their Dor
derS.
They will have a chance to save
their boys, well knowing that
the liquor trattlc cannot be run
without boys. A chance to put
purity and integrity into the
heart of a boy, and sunshine into
the heart of his mother; a chance
to prevent crime, to feed wives
and children, to add to the
peace, wealth and prosperity of
the state.
Father, husband, brother and
son do not fail or neglect on Nov.
Sth, to do for your child, your
wife, your sister, your mother,
what they cannot do for them
selveS-vote for Amendment No.
10. Mark out the word "No".

tins state, for at least thirty
years, no citizen could hope for a
nomination or election till he had
bargained with the brewers and
liquor dealers and their allied
thugs and thieves.
Is that the personal liberty
the self-government-for which
you plead2 Excuse me if you
please.
You say, We know that pro
hibition would create intOlerable
conditions in the liquor traffic,
substituting the lawleSS, unlicen-
sed, unregulated den for the reg
ulated, orderly saloon" In my
youth l dreamed such thoughts
but the experience of fifty have
dispelled the illusion. l have
seen, and l see every day the
reality.
Man in palatial homes, bank
ers and business men in every
walk and station in large cities
and small towns wherever
the saloon and brewer can
S~ubSiSt-arrogant and proud
of the wealth and power gain
ed through the poverty and mis-
cry which they have entailed-I
see men like these in every COM
munity uphOldng a traffic in liq-
or, because of the dollars it con
trolls, and without thought or
care for the misery and social
ruin in its train.
You, in your pamphlets, have
stated the ease stronger than Il
had imagined. Of st. Louis you
say, "Not less than one-fourth
of the manufacture and commerce
of the city would be eliminated
not less than one-fourth of the
of the city would be
deprived of the means of living
not less than $40, 100000 of pror+,
would be destroyed"
If that be true under a law
permitting a regulated saloon then
is high time to halt and start
on another road. One-fourth of
the population of st. Louis de-
pendent ON saloons and brewers
for means of living should be res
put ON a more sub
Stantlal and trustworthy basis of
business. And one-fourth of the
population dependent on saloons
Is an army of vice, corruptingI
and destroying the virtue and
manhood of st. Louis and the
state at large, if not the nation
at large. Can a state permit
such a traffic to continue, and
'tll hope to enforce law and
preserve personal libertyY

around you and the causes which

Stop and think a while. Forget

st. Louis and Missouri, but in the

the hope that thereby the state
as well as its large cities may be
set free from the chains and
