NATIONWIDE PROHIBITION
Two Strong Articles For and Against
the Proposition

Two Strong Articles For and Against
the Proposition
For the Proposition-"I regard as
almost blasphemous the attempt to
invoke the sacred principles of state
rights and local self-government for
the protection of the liquor traffic.
There ought to be no such thing IN
county, state or nation as right to
authorize a wrong. Those who urge
the doctrine of state rights against
national prohibition say in effect
that they are entirely willing that
the liquor traffic should flourish in
this nation as long as a single state
desires it. The liquor interests in
this county would go wild with joy if
every Prohibitionist would take that
view. 1t would mean. their perpetual
ton. 1t would mean that from their
states that would continue to pour a
tide of corruption over all the land.
I do not underrate the value OF state
county and precinct prohibition
These are infinitely better than no
prohibition at all. But the liquor
traffic spreads from a few centers
all over the country; its ramifica-
lions are everywhere. 1t is nation
al as well as local evil, and its pow
er is so tireless and so terrible that
the nation will never be safe as long
as it fiourishes in even one or a few
states. 1t is certainly to be regretted
that the doctrine of state rights
should be invoked in behalf of the
liquor traffic, which Is universally
recognized as the most concienceless
viOlator of state rights the country
has ever known. The liquor traffic
persistently fought interstate liquor
legislation by congress on the
grounds that the state had no right to
interfere with the liquor traffic in the
nation; now it fights the national
prohibition amendment on the
ground that the nation has no right
to interfere with it in the states.
IL the constitutional views of those
who urge the state rights principle
I'm this controversy had prevailed in
the past, the states that voted against
or failed to ratify the federal income
tax or the direct election of senator's
would still be exempt from the levy
of the tax within their borders, or
would still be electing senators by
the legislatures and not by the peo-
pie. They seem to be seriously alarm
ed lest the United States army might
be ordered out to suppress a blind
tiger" or capture ''bootlegger" in
the event the national amendment
should be adopted. The mere state
ment of such a proposition is it's own
refutation.
These gentlemen are afraid that if
the states get together in sufficient
number, as they have right to do,
and summon their creature, the fed
eral government, to join them and CO.
operate with them in the contest
against the liquor traffic that it will
mean the death of state governments,
the disappearance of state identity.
They seem to be afraid that if the
states do right in this instance the
shock will be so great that they will
