November 7, 1913. THE AM E
Brace Americans Will Not Surrender
Editorial by John F. Cunneen.

Blind pig keepers and bootleggers are anarchists.
They defy the will of the people and spit upon the
law. Like the thief, thug and murderer, they are
criminals. 1t costs money to keep them behind prison
bars, but it is cheaper for the community do that
than to let them prey upon the people.
The saloonkeeper through the saloon makes
drunkards criminals paupers, and sends people
early grave by law. The blind pig keeper and boot
logger does the thing in spite of the law
The licensed saoonkeeper is the agent of the
people. Like the hired who executes the muir
derer by throwing the electric current cuts the
rope that holds up the trapdoor he performs
pleasant task for the money there is in it.
The murderer is put to death to protect society.
The saloon exists because there some people who
willing it should .debauch and destroy people as
long it pays for the privilege and others who say
that if you vote the saloon out awbreakers will sell
liquor anyhow This is demand that American peo-
pie must surrender to anarchists. Strange to say
numbers Of American citizens crnge before anarchists
and cry, 1--WE surrender Others, like Benedict
Arnold, sell themselves to the worst enemy of their
country and do their utmost to give victory to the
destroyers of the people, Numbers Of American citi-
of foreign birth stand soldly with brave native
Americans who fight for human rights George Wash
ington had many men of foreign birth who aided him
to win freedom of country. In every struggle our
country had of foreign birth who shed their blood
dhd SdCIced themselves Ior th1S country In every
moral struggle foregnborn citizens have fought with
native Americans to bring victory to the cause Of
righteousness. Many oreign-born citizens are today
struggling with native Americans to crush the saloon
but unfortunately, numbers of native Americans oin
the enemies of law and order and sobriety and bring
defeat to the Of righteousness. 1t is pitiabe
that descendants of Revolutionary heroes and war
riors of later say must surrender the blind
pig keeper and bootlegger They haul down the
and stripes and let the awbreakers hoist the black flag
of riot and ruin.
They would let this country change from "the
land of the free and the home of the brave the land
of the spree and the home of the knave'
Every license vote is white flag of surrender to
the lawbreakers. Brave Americans native and natural
led will not surrender to anarchists. Lawbreakers
