There IS other states in which between Is and so
per cent of the population is living under no-cense
and the remaining states have large sections of
tory and large proportion of the population which by
one means another have excluded the traffic In
fact is conservatvely estimated that 90 per of

WHAT IS REQUIRED.
The fight to secure an amendment to the consttu-
ton, however, will be easy one It means that
the temperance forces will face the of conflict
in every congressional district they have been
PEELED to face in every state legislative district in the
effort to state legislation Each who voted
for the Kenyon-Webb bill in Congress has already been
spotted; the liquor interests of the country will not
spare efforts money his defeat This issue
will present itself in practically every election in every
congressional district of the United States from this
time forward and it will be necessary for the temper
ance and moral forces to be organized in every
gressona district as to insure majority in Congress
in favor of submitting this whole proposition to the
people in the several states.
LIQUOR NO LONGER A NECESSITY.
Scientific Investigations and experiments along
various lines have finally established the fact that
oxicating liquors longer necessary for any pur
pose For long years, the mistaken idea intoxicat
ing liquors essential for medicinal pharmaceutical
sacramento scientific purposes fooled the public
The great hospitals of the world however, during the
past twenty years. have largely done away with the
use OF intoxicants. Many of the greatest medical
scientists of this and other countries have discontinued
altogether the of Intoxicating liquors. Denatured
alcohol is largely taking the place of spirits in the arts
Hundreds of drug stores have ceased sell the stuff
the great chain of Lgge drug throughout the
United States just few weeks ago having published
large advertisement in the leading papers of twenty
eight cities of the United States announcing that from
that time forward Intoxicating liquors would not be
sold in any Liggett drug store.

from this traffic If the United States was ever in the
condition where it absolutely dependent upon such
revenue certainly that time has long since passed The
Federal reports for the last fiscal year show the ord
nary government receipts to have been $6o1 14o455
while the ordinary government disbursements were
only $6548o4625, showing the income of the United
States government to have been almost 100000 in
excess OF the government expenses for the year.
Furthermore, the income tax amendment to the
United States constitution which has lust been ratified
by twothrds of the states will at conservative esti
mate increase the of the United States gov
eminent from $1oo,oooooo to $4,000 900 year.
Ii there ever was an excuse for drawing from the
liquor traffic OF this country the money necessary to
run United States government that excuse will no
longer hold, for the income tax alone will provide
almost as much money the government receives each
year in revenue from the liquor traffic.
DEFENDERS OF THE CONSTITUTION.
The friends of temperance reform pressing for
needed anlquor legislation both in state and national
legislative ood1es have constantly been with the
cry that all such legislation "is unconstitutional" It
IS perhaps safe to say that single ant-quor law
from search and seizure of other enforcement measure
to Prohibition statute has ever been presented to
legislative body in this country that it has not been
declared unconstitutional by the members of the legal
PROFESSION who tor one another have seen fit
to ally themselves with the liquor crowd Yet of all
these hundreds of laws that have been enacted to find
one that has been declared unconstitutional by the
supreme court of the United states like looking for
needle in haystack. United States Senator Suther-
land and others who led the fight against the Kenyon
Webb bill in the United States senate were loud in
their condemnation of present liquor abuses. They
were perfectly willing, according their declarations
to do anything which would be constitutional to relieve
the preesnt situation Senator Sutherland declared that
IT by his single pronouncement all Intoxicating liquors
could be put in the bottom of the ocean, it would
promptly be done the only thing in the way was the
constitution of the United States
TAKE THEM AT THEIR WORD.
Let us take these gentlemen at their word Let us
have showdown this proposition According to
declarations of these leading advocates of the liquor in
terests, perfectly willing join hands to amend
the constitution. Let give them the opportunity.
OF course, they will find some other weapon with
which to fight They will at once discover some other
great calamity that would upon the people if the
Prohibition amendment the constitution were to be

sU1u III any Llggett drug store.
The operations of law passed in Kansas about
four years ago prohibiting the sale of liquors for any
purpose except for sacramento use, which was rdi-
culed at the time by many fair-minded men, has fully
demonstrated that the sale of Intoxicating liquors for
even medicinal or mechanical purposes is necessary
In short has been demonstrated beyond the question
of doubt that intoxicating liquors do in any sense
under the head of necessities and thus the last
faint argument for their continued manufacture and
sale has failed.
REVENUE NOT NOW ESSENTIAL.
From the time the Federal revenue tax was put on
the liquor traffic, fifty years ago, of the avorte
pro-quor arguments has been the effect that the
government can not without the revenue derived
