Dick BdrthO1dt'S Logic

Missouri has congressman named Richard
Bartholdt He has minor interest in number of
things but the chief purpose of his life seems to be
to guard the personal liberty" of the people of Mis-
souri, and this United States from those who would
check or prohibit the swlling down Of beer.
The other day in Congress- after Congressman
Hobson had made speech in favor of Prohibition,
Barthodt got up and said that God put temptation in
the Garden of Eden in order that might be made
strong and that if you removed temptation people
would become weak.
Dick also said that whisky good thing to
have around the house. because to have it and to
resist the temptation drink it would show that you
were strong man. Dick further averred that If the
Prohbitionsts logical they would have to advo-
cate the abolition of guns because some men shoot

Does it Prohibit j?

The AntiSaloon League of America is planning
campaign for nationwide Prohibition. Will they
wer this question: Does Prohibition prohibit? : Boston
Traveller
Now, that's the question Does it prohibit? Well,
do the laws against adulterating Boston baked beans
prohibit? Do the laws against notwithstanding,
horse stealing, forgery and adultery prohibit?
Really, it is wearsome to the soul to have some
fellow raising that sort of question every day. Of
course the laws don't prohibit. The Ten Command
ments prohibited. The constitution of the
United States does not prohibit There is no law of
God or man that prohibits. What then do away with
the law? But there penalties, and lawbreakers
frequently find that out to their sorrow
Does the regulation of saloons regulate? Does
the licensing of saloons restrict or restrain?

What NOW?

The Committee of One Thousand appointed by
the Columbus convention had done its work in SPLEEN
did fashion Instead of Committee of One Thousand,
there at least two thousand The National w. C.
T. D. came along three hundred strong in support
of the League program.
Congress sat up and took notice. The house gave
a public hearing on the Sheppard-Hobson proposal
twentyfour hours after it was introduced. And four
hours later, the house chamber filled with Con-
gressmen to hear radical Prohibition speech.
In boosting the national movement, don't forget
your local and state enterprises. Don't forget your
local campaigns for local option in certain states and
statewide Prohibition in Others For it is in both the
successes and failures of these enterprises that
the arguments for the national Prohibition policy.
Just the bee extracts honey from the thistle and
the alike, just does the reormer extract argu
ments for national Prohibition from both success and
failure in local undertakings.
