BY extracting From these figures the
precincts in Jefferson Davis parish, at
the date of June 9, 1908 it will readily
be seen that our new parish of Jeffer.
son Davis voted adry majority of over
five hundred, and aS we feel that the
voters of our parish have long realized
the benefit and the tranquility of our
community, they will stick to the same
theory and vote the parish dry. AS the
voting of wet parish means hungry
and ragged women and children and
convicted fathers, let the voters of
jefferson Davis Parish be loyal to
their vote of June 3, 1908 and rid the
Parish of the drug that leads to
poverty and braken hearted homes
and not vote to. share the greed of a
few who care forsthe S, not the homes.
The homes support our parish, not
the whiskey, ard the stamping out

the coming generation tina will
probably never be forgotten and that
our children and grand children can
say: we can liVnas our fatherSdid, in a
land of happiness and prosperity
which always prevails in a4dry terri
tory where. mother and father can
meet their sons at the fo8t of the

Priest Makes DatY Plain

THE following paragraphs were tax
en- from a speech. given at the Fifteenth
National Convention of the AntiSalooD
League of America. by Rev, Father
Patrick j, Murphy on the subject,
why Should We Do Away With the
Saloon Business in the United States. }
There are seventy.fye million people
the United States who are not in
.avor OF saloons. There are ninety mil
lion people in the United States Who are
personally and individually opposed to
the manufacture and sale of distilled
liquors. And yet we have saloons.
Why? Because it never occurred to US
until quite recently that we qauld put
an end to,them.
One hundred thousand drunkards
year may not be oyerestimates OF the
finished product of an industry, III
which you and l are engaged IS CO.
operators, by granting licenses under
the seal of our various states.
A saloon is an institution for making
drunkards..
One OF the strongest arguments
against the saloon may be summed up
in these words: THE; saloon makes
drunkarks; the supply of drunkardS at
the present time is beyond the demand;
let us close down the works until adj
vancing civilization finds some use for
the product. And in the meantime let
us take good care of the drunkards we
have, for we helped to make them.
The strongest argument against the
saloon is a moral argument. The
strongest is a business argument. Let
us analyze it. The most energetic pro-
motors Of drunkendess today are those
who have money invested in the bust
ness, and who want to make it pay
That promoter may be the owner of the
brewery or the wholesale agent for the
distiller. These men may not want tc

there is no Fun in it. But they have
their money up against the happiness Of
your home, against the good name anC

own immortal soul, and they would
rather see you lose than lose them

why JEFFERSON DAVIS
SHOULD GO DRY.

We wish to quote few figures
showing the results of special cleo.
ton held in our mother parish on June
8, 1908, wherein the returns are shown
at each precinct, with total vote dry,
also the total vote wet and the total
majority, also showing the precincts
in Jefferson Davis parish that voted on
the question at that date, which is, we
feel, convincing that the same or
larger majority will be carried at the
next election. The following table will
show that the dry vote was 2,776, the
wet vote $751; with dry majority of
1909.
