TO PROHIBITIONISTS
Tennessee Governor Ad-
dresses Convention at
Washington

Washington, December 10.-ATalcolm r.
Patterson. former governor of Tennes-

stitution of the United States to prohibit
the manufacture and sale of liquor i'll
the United States
I'VE know said the ex-governor, that
the use of liquor fills no human want;
that the habit of indulgence is always
acquired: that abstinence alone is the
guarantee OF safety. and that the de-
struction of liquor itself is the only guar
Rntee Of abstinence.
THE manufacture and sale of liquor Is
now forbidden in nine states of the union,
either by general legislation or consti-
tutional amendment Of the organic law,
and in others it will be forbidden as soon
as the people have opportunity to vote
on the question and have their will re-
corded in proper form.
The contests in the towns and cities
and states nave largely diminished the
evils, but they have sometimes failed in
full results owing to the case with which
liquor is received into dry territory from
other states under the protection of the
federal government, and the time has now
come when the friends of temperance
Fortified, strengthened and marshaled all
over the United States demand that this
intolerable condition shall cease.
Civilization and Christianity now de-
mand another constitutional amendment
to be presented to the states for their rati-
fcation or rejection. that the voice and
sovereignty of the people as the first and
ultimate source of power may be exercised

mine whether or not the manufacture and
sale Of Intoxicating drinks exists with
