light men have their problems is diverse the
individuals themselves and diverse light necessarily
leads to diverse opinions. We under every obiga-

these persuasons of the truth in every proper way
possible. These facts being recognized It is
clearly generally recognized however, that

Hon. 1t is Done

One of the most glaring falsehoods-their number
is legon-and the frequently conjured up by
the high priests of the liquor traffic. is in reference to
the actual conditions obtaining in 'dry" districts
There is for this. In free-for-al fist
fight, naturally enough pays most attention to the
opponent dealing the hardest blows. There is abso
lutely question about the expulsion OF the saloon
greatly improving financial, social and domestic con-
dtions in community. This fact gathered from
actual experience by the most reliable citizens in thou
sands of communities, is inconrovertble and is dealing
staggering blows to the liquor traffic In order to
minimize and weaken the effect of it, the liquor people

against the "bootegger" and blindtger" alleged to
exist in "dry" districts, they dig up frayed,

ago, "take the money and do they taught They
always find what they go after They report "blind
tigers" and "boot1eggers" galore shocking cond-
tons, etc.
These faked-up reports" are given widest pub
licity Then the liquor dealers and their stoolpgeons
everywhere throw up their clean hands in holy horror
at the number of illicit dealers claimed to have been
found by these liquor mercenaries in dry territory.

that too by testimony that would be admitted COM
peent in any court yet the liquor dealers keep right
on restricting these fasehoods and reashng them in
the hope that the gulble may be deceived thereby.
The United States Internal Revenue Record, No. 10,
shows that there speakeasies under license
