THE HOME LEAGUES
RED LINE CIRCULAR

Last week a sheet bearing the name
The Record" was distributed about
town. Like a big city paper it had a
good deal OF red ink on several OF its
pages. and il was full Of pictures and
cartoons.
1t looked no more like a copy OF
the Canon City Record than does the
Denver Post but the name alone mignt
mix some people up.
The sheet referred to explains in
the head lines that it is Published
by the Colorado Business Mems Home
Rule League at Denver. Colorado It
is not a newspaper in any sense. but
is a hand-bill-a circular-put out
by the Denver league that is fighting
the prohibition amendment. The same
thing is being distributed all over
Colorado.
It has no connection in any way
with the Canon City Record

a deadly and treacherous weapon.
In the act of transferring it from
one pocket to another he touched the
hair-trigger instead of the guard,
and his death was the result
Colonel Walters discussed the
open door in Albany from three
standpoints-the moral standpoint,
the legal standpoint and the finan-
cial standpoint. The open door in
Albany must close" said he in dra-
matte tones, and great applause
greeted his words You have had
wrecks enough caused by that open
door. Go to the penitentiaries, state
and federal, and see the wrecks that
open door has made Go to the sad
dest place in Georgia, the asylum for
! the insane, and see the wrecks of the
| open door there The past is lined
with its skeletons. We pave our
streets, build beautiful buildings
and put in the white way to make
our city attractive to strangers, but
place no restraint on those evil per-
/ sons and places of vice and iniquity.
! They are invited to come by and ply
/ their nefarious vacations without re-
/ straint and | might say under the

ment.

to look after these things. l who
speak to you have been selfish.
have paid no attention to my neigh
Dor. But l here give you my solemn
pledge, with one hand on my boys
silent grave and the other on the
bleeding heart of his mother, that
this open door shall close"
Colonel Walters spoke of the blind
tiger, the gambling den and an evil
which, he said, is worse than all the
others, which carries on the work OF
wrecking the youth Of Albany under
the protection of the municipal gov
eminent. Colonel Walters called on
the women first and then the men
to pledge him their support in what
from this time would be his life
work. He received a general and
spontaneous response, and the incep'
ton of an organization to clean Al.
banv was the result. He asserted
that if one hundred men would band
together to fight the open door the
evils that he spoke of could not ex
isl in Albany.
His words were spoken under
stress of feeling that was plainly Wis
ible to his hearers.
Colonel Walters remarks, while
brief, were impassioned, and were
frequently interrupted by applause
