- HE following constitution and
platform is the outgrowth of
meeting held in Chicago iD
August. This organization
does not take the place of ex-
listing Patriotic Organizations,
neither does it assume to come in
conflict with any movement seeking
to check the aggression of Political
Romanism. Our great aim is to edu-
cate voters that only such men may
be elected to Office as will anchor
firmly to the principles set forth in
our platform.
We accomplish our work through
many channels. We have on our list
hundreds of religious, fraternaI and
SECULAR newspapers to which we are
furnishing weekly an article leading
up to educating the voter as to the
perils of popery.
We hope to assist lecturers in
every State in the Union to speak to
the people and enlist them in the
cause.
When no local patriotic societies
exist we will attempt to install So
ciety suited to the needs of the To-
cality.
No one can measure the value of
our patriotic press. Our work is to
do all we can to increase the circu-
lation of these publications.
in every State we will have vice
president and probably recording
secretary.
We have no paid officers of this
organization with the exception of
Nno man Much ie,
by officers who pay their own travel
ing expenses.
We need $4,000 during the next
twelve months to carry on the plans
now formed. This is insignificant if
every patriot will do his part.

What the League is Driving at

Ever sace the organization of the Anti-Saoon
League in America, in 1885, the organization has
had one purpose; but end in view. This pur-
pose set forth in Article of the constitution
The determination of the beverage liquor traffic"
For years at the head of most of its periodicals ap
peared the slogan, "The Saloon Must Co."
Nothing short of this has ever been considered
for moment the ultimate object of the organza-
ton. National Prohibition with a government in
Washington to make it effective is and has always
been the goal to be attained
But what mire of wicked Misrepresentation has
been waded through in the pursuit of this objective.
If some League speaker urged total abstinence
somewhere and they all did, the cry up that the
League was milk and water temperance organ-
zation.'
1t here and there League speakers urged local
option law temporary step in the direction OF
statewide Prohibition, the shout went up that the
League was willy-nilly local option compromise"
scheme sort of feather-bed for the politicians.
1t mattered not that the League in Prohibition
states fighting against local option and that in
county unit states the League fighting for state
wide Prohibition, there croakers to misrepresent
its ultimate purpose expressed in its very constitution
1.-THE DIFFERENTIATION of the traffic"
Theorists may growl till they are black in the
face because the League in the interest of success
may follow strategy in one state and another
system in another state ust General Grant fol-
lowed strategy at Fort Donaldson and another at
Appomattox- one fact remains that the liquor in
terests are ALWAYS in the field contestng the very
things that the League proposes
Whatever mistakes the League may have made
it has been found lining up in the legislature
clamoring for the things that the liquor men
want or fighting for the things that the liquor
men are fighting for
In states where statewide Prohibition exists, the
liquor men are always fighting for local option, and
the League is always found in defense of the state
wide policy
But in state like Pennsylvania, where the whole
liquor power is fighting against county option, the
League is found struggling the other side-both
sides we'll knowing that the county option proposal is
merely opening wedge to statewide Prohibition,
just statewide Prohibition is the opening wedge
to national Prohibition
