Haze No Argument

Advocates of the saloon have no argument that
will stand the test of logic and good unbiased udg-
ment. They will bring forth alleged justification for
their position but when you apply the test you will
find that somewhere the argument has hole in it
and that it will not hold water Right is right and
evil is evil and these principles have been opposed to
each other throughout eternity. No person of in
tellgence whose eyes not blinded by greed self
seeking or sophisty questions the proposition that
drunkenness is evil and that therefore, the supply
ing of liquor beverage is evil But the friends of
intemperance or the the fence are constantly
trying to gloss the saloon apologize for its
existence. The only thing for the friends of righteous
ness to do is to stand firm and make compromise
