the trusts than all or the Democrats
in the country put together In the
present campaign the Democratic
party has one plank TO stand upon
and that is the insincere issue of state
wide prohibition. Prohibition does not
mean temperance for you cannot leg
islate temperance into people 1t can
not be forced upon a people by I'm.

must come from within. 1t must mean

right government OF affairs the kind
OF government that the party has al.
ways given the people OF this great
commonwealth"
