COMPARISON AND CONTRAST

Thus while it is easy to discern an
apparent evil, to apply an appropriate
remedy is a sociological difficulty OF
great magnitude that taxes to the
utmost the hest trained intellects OF
students of the science of government.
Not infrequently the reactive effects OF
the force applied produce an i'm
measurablv greater evil than the one
it seeks to remove. What can be said
then OF the remedy that not only ag-
gravates the specific evil at which it is
aimed, but gives life and vigor to
others even more disastrousG This Is
precisely what has resulted in every
State that has declared for Statewide
prohibition. ANY man who wishes to
know the facts as a guide to an in
telligent discharge of his duty in the
pending issue between the two policies
of Statewide prohibition and local
option will be furnished them, accom-
panied by proof of accuracy that can
not. successfully, be gainsaid. Facts
and argument based on facts are what
the voter demands.
Let us then refer the two schemes
for the promotion of temperance now
submitted for decision by the people,
local option and Statewide prohibition.

cept as conclusive of the question its
decision. We grant that the advocates
of each plan are equally sincere. But
let the verdict of that high court be
our guide. There is no excuse for Vir-
ginia taking a leap in the dark on this
serious matter. There is light to guide
