The Saloon Never Respectable,

Catholic Temperance Advocated
Malcolm r. Patterson, Ex-Governor of
Tennessee, and eloquent advocate of state
wide, nationwide, and worldwide prohibi-
ton, speaking to large audiance at the
Grand Opera House, Dubuque, Iowa, on
March 9Th, predicted the final downfall of
the liquor traffic. He said:
"Science condemns it as poison unfit
for use, and human experience testifies to
the same story in the record of insanity
and death caused by this plague. Two
billion year is the tribute money paid by
Americans to liquor.
'sThere is scarcely an American family
that does not bear scar from drink, and
every cemetery tells the pitiful story of a
drunkard's death. 1t is the creator of
public death, and destroys the efficiency
of men. You cannot compromise with the
liquor traffic, you cannot regulate it.
Vote it out, and it will come back in the
speak easy The government has on
right to commercialize vice and crime.
There never was, never will, and never
can be respectable saloon. The saloon
is ofttimes called the poor mans club, that
beats the life and character out of the man
that frequents it, takes the bread from his
children's mouths and the heart out of his
wife. Ninety per cent of poverty is direct
ly traced to srong drink. Drink is useless
unmanly, cowardy, and breeds disease
and evil desires. 1t would be mercy tc
the saloon man to put him out of business
and a mercy to the working man if the
saloons were closed.
''We are starting rebellion against the
slavery of alcohol, and we are going tc
succeed in the name of home, of country
and in every land"

Give not thy strength unto women, nor
thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.
xxi, 3.
Correct thy son, and he shall give thee
rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy
soul.-xxix, II.
Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain:
but woman that feareth the Lord, she
shall be praised.-xxxi, 80.
The horseback hath two daughters, cry
ing, Give, give. There are three things
that are never satisfied, yea, four things
say not, 1t is enough.-xxx, 10.
Surely l am more british than any man,
and have not the understanding of man.
neither learned wisdom, nor have the
knowledge of the holy.-xxx, 2-3.
For the transgression of land many
are the princes thereof: but by man OF
understanding and knowledge the state
thereof shall be prolonged.-xxviii, 2.
He that hateth dissembleth with his lips,
and layeth up deceit within him; when he
speaketh fair, believe him not: for there
are seven denominations in his heart
XVI, 24-25.
If thine enemy be hungry, give him
bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him
water to drink: for thou shalt heap Goals
of fire upon his head, and the Lord shall
reward thee.-xxvi, 21-22.
AS the fining pot for silver, and the fur

Though thou should bray fool in mortal

foolishness depart from him.-xxvii, 1928
There is generation that curseth thei
