TEMPERANCE MEETING
Address in Park to Large Audience BY
Rev. ]. ID. McAlister.

A large crowd was present in the
park Sunday afternoon to hear Rev. j.
d. McAlister, general secretary Of the
State Anti-Saloon League.
The meeting was opened with sing
ing by the audience and Rev. +. j.
Richardson led in prayer.
Mr.. B. p. Willis made few forceful
remarks and introduced the speaker.
Mr.. McAlster used as the basis of
his address Prov. 30:l5, "The horse
leech has two daughters, crying give,
give" The American saloon is the
great horseback of today; 10000
drunkards are made by it every year,
$500, 000, 900 goes down threats of people,
fortunes are swept away by it, homes
destroyed and lives blighted. The
two daughters are the appetite for
liquor and the greed for the yellow
dollar. The one inspiration for engag-
ing in the liquor traffic is the love of
money. We stand today against sa-
loon that hopes to make its fortune by
the exploitation of our young manhood.
The restriction of any business means
its destruction. The saloon cant be
regulated. The only well regulated sa-
loon is the one buried under the ballots
of the people.
We are not pleading for making men
sober by law, we are pleading for the
prevention of making men drunk by
law. The saloon fosters the blind
tiger. The saloon recognizes no right
but might. The saloon is willing to
prostitute the general prosperity of the
community for its own gain.
He spoke of the wonderful prosperity
of the State of North Carolina under
prohibition, an increase of SIT, 900, 900 in
banking business. a new schoolhouse
for every day in the year. He begged
the people for the sake of the boys. the
women, the men, the church, the
school to stand for the right and
keep the saloon out of the city.
He urged every voter to stand in a
mans place and do a mans work, to
neglect no opportunity for personal
work and to feel his individual respon-
sibility.
The address was a dignified presenta-
ton of the issue before the people and
was we'll received.
