Heart TO Heart Hint to Hematite
Number 5

Mr.. Editor. we are going 20 take
your editorial OF last week as the basis
of this weeks talk to the Amasa read
ers of this journal.
Like Yourself we have wondered why
some of those conscientious workers for
the welfare OF Amasa who have but re.
Gently succeeded in their fond ambi-
ton do not come TO the defense Of
their actions. We have purposely pro-
voked them. We have tried TO rouse
them from their lethergy. We have
dared "sticks and stones and broken
bones in our single handed endeavor
ana all TO no purpose at this writing.
However In this editorial one gains
the impression that we are against the
term dry" in all OF it's qualifications.
We wish TO correct this impression.
We're the State of Michigan or the
county of Iron voted dry" we assure
you that there would be no complaint
whatever from this quarter. We be-
lieve strictly in the Voice of the Peo-
pie" when the people are uninhuenced
and alive to the issue at stake.
But against Amasa is the grip of the
Anti Saloon League aud under would
be Prohibition rule that does not pro.
hibit we take decided stand. OF our
efforts in this line we have nothing to
say except that they furnish one means
of blowing off steam.
We have pictured local conditions in
the Confessions of a reformed dry"
and therefore would suggest that ar
ticle as a basis for the REPUTATION pro-
posed by the Editor. We welcome his
suggestion and il we may be permitted
would 20 one step further and ask any
Of our Amasa readers 10 send In 10 the
Diamond Drill his opinion Of these ar
ticles whether be- is in favor of them
or against them. II you request. the
Editor no will not publish your name.
We offer this suggestion for the pur-
pose of finding out IL these articles are
acceptable II you want them contin
ned send 10 your opinion and DO TT

Outlook Brighter.

The outlook for prohibition
seems brighter than everbefort
as we see it. Surely the senti-
ment in favor Of doing away
with liquor is growing rapidly.
Some of our leading newspapers
are refusing to carry liquor al
vertisements. A few years ago
that would not have been con-
sidcred by our influential news
papers. The fact that wine has
no place in the White House
argues great things for the flu
ture. We have heard it said
that President Wilson and Vice
President Marshall are both
prohibitionists. Be that as it
may, they are both great Sun
day school men and that means
they are praying men, and
therefore in favor Of the best
interest Of the whole country.
The new internal revenue com
missioner, Mr.. Osborne, says
that he and his deputies are de
termined to put the bloCkaders
out Of business, When that is
done our local officers can man
age the business. We think
that the prohibitionists of the
State ought to call a convention
Of the temperance workers and
mcmorialize the legislature to
pass q law at the next session
Of that body allowing the State
to vote upon q statewide pro
hibitiOn law, and let us vote on
the issue as q measure and not
on men. Let the whole State
have a chance to express their
desires at the ballot box and let
us throw the thing forever out
Of politics in our State. And
furtl + let us Danish forever tn

stroy ing monster from our state

You say the saloon is all right in

l defy any man to show me that
the saloon has ever lessened the bur
den of taxation.
| defy any man to show me a town
that has saloons where the taxes are
lower than in a town without sa-

Eighty-two per cent. Of all crimes
are caused by liquor.
Five points. New York, was a spot
as near hell as any spot on earth.
The licensed liquor business is the
cause Of three-fourths OF all the costs
Of our criminal system.
To license such a thing as the sa-
loon is the most low-down sinking
thing the American people can stoop
to.
Booze is the parent of crime and
the mother of sin.
To license such an incarnate fiend
of hell is the dirtiest, most damn
nable business on the top of this
old earth.
The saloon comes as near being a
rat hole into which to pour money,
as anything on earth.
Do you say to do away with the sa-
loon would kill business? Well, to
begin with you are a dirty liar. In
the second place, even if it were true
it would be better to die in the Lord
than die in booze.
The booze question is the one big
question before the American peo-
pie.
If you want to consort with the
blackleg and the thief and the
drunkard and the prostitute, go to
the saloon.

The saloon is a liar; it promises
good cheer and sends sorrow. 1t
