It would appear that the murderer was

his home, and that as the man stopped

the head, either of which would have
caused his death. Bloodstains on the wag-

As the harness had been stripped from

OCTOBER
w. A. EDGAR ASKS
FOR A DRY STATE

Dear Mr.. Voter: Who is most vi
tally concerned in this California
dry" movement? Whom shall we
consider most, first and last in the
study of this question?
l 1t has been accurately and scien-
tifically determined that alcoholic bev-
erages do no one any good, but in
\ stead do much harm to nearly all
who drink them. Where, then, is
there any merit upon which support
of alcohol can be maintained? Do
you say you like it? That, at best,
| is only catering to an improper ap-
petite. Does it give you more than
a momentary thrill, followed very
soon by dull, depressed and distressed
sensations, headaches, nausea, ETC..
You know, Mr.. Alcohol Drinker, by
experience, that there is no real sub
staniial lasting pleasure caused by
drinking it; that it is only sham,
deceiver. You know it is getting
a hold on you; that it is getting you
Idowa; that it is going to ruin you.
You feel, you know, the inevitable
consequences. Even if you take SC
little Of it yourself that it has only
very little perceptible evil effect up
on you, still you know that it is get
ting many others, perhaps some or
your associates or acquaintances, and
will eventually ruin them. Can't you
at least give up the habit and strike
alcohol a death blow on their account
anyhow?
Do I hear you say that to strike
the alcoholic liquor industries a death
blow will financially injure other peo-
pie? Well, let us see. What saloon
keeper is there who will admit that
he is not man enough to make his
living, and more, in some other way.
Why not one, of course, will admit
such weakness. He knows he can go
at something else and succeed at it
as well as anybody can. He believes
he is full sized man, of course
Then, what wholesale liquor dealer is
there who will admit that he cannot
make money some other way. Why,
rome, of course. Each of them, too,
believes himself to be a man. Now,
is there a manufacturer Of alcoholic
beverages who will admit that he can
not make money some other way?
Why, no, of course. He, too, believes
himself to be a man.
Well, then, Mr.. Voter, these three
classes are "out of it" by their own
frank and manly admissions. "They
can make money some other way if
California goes dry" they say. You
say, Mr.. Voter, they will be forced
to sustain financial loss if their
liquor business is done away with
Well, they are doing that business for
selfish gain, aren't they? Have you
not just as good a right to be selfish
as they have? Have you not just
as good a right to look out for your
self as they have? Why, of course
you have, and by taking proper care
of yourself you will be helping your
associate to regain his manhood. The
qualification of the saloonkeepers'
selfishness has no such worthy. re-
suit Your selfish welfare, properly
gratified, benefits all the world. The
liquor trafficker's selfshness, graft
4 fed by the liquor business, Injuries
all the world. You, Mr.. Voter, have
infinitely far better right to crafty
your proper selfishness than he has
to crafty his liquor business selfish
ness.
But your propoition that it will
cause the liquor dealer financial loss
|. is not worth CONSIDERING. hecause the
Imperial Valley press., 1914-10-29

financial loss will be so insignificant
that not even such liquor dealer will
make himself appear so small as to
mention it. What will it amount to,
anyway? His leftover liquors he will
not lose, for he will ship them to some
other wet district, and get his mon
cy out of them, and it will only be
when the last wet district goes dry
that there will be any liquor to ac-
tually throw away, and by that time
the amount of liquor will be so small
that it will not be worth mentioning,
and nearly all his other properties
can be used in some other profitable
way.
Still you say, Mr.. Voter, that the
wine grape industry will suffer. Whao
if it does? 1t is only one twohun-
dredtl part of the industry of Cali
fornif, and such a small minority as
one out of two hundred is too much
Cf man to squeal. He will just for
get his little bit of loss and put his
energies to another industry that will
pay him better.
Yet, you say, the wage earners
hired by the liquor traffickers will
be thrown out of work. Why so?
Your saloonkeeper, wholesale dealer,
liquor manufacturer and wine grape
grower have said that they are each
man enough to do something else to
make money, and each will make HIS
word good, too. And the best part
of it for the wage Garner is that any
thing else the liquor trafficker goes
at will use not less than four times
SIS much hired help as the liquor bus
mess uses. This is fact of statis-
ties end, of course, you admit it.
Now, Mr.. Voter, what else?
The saloonkeeper is out of the "wot
or dry" question. So, too, are the
wholesale dealer, the liquor maker,
the wine grape grower and the hired
help of those industries. All by thais,
own admission of manly ability to
make money in some other way.
There are just two points left to
consider, Mr. Voter-your own wei
fare snd the welfare of your fellow
man. Will you not now go into pri-
yacy for short time and just think?
Think Of the condition of "Califor-
MIA dry"
Think how it will benefit your
self.
Think how it will benefit, yes, make
a MAJ, of the other fellow.
Think how boys and girls will be
saved.
Think of your sister and what she
would wish you to do in the matter.
Think of your mother, God bless
her. You know what she wants you
to do.
Think of your chance to lessen the
cause of crime. 81
Think of that glorious eternity and
your God, and VOTE CALIFORNIA
DRY.
Vote yes on Amendments and 80.
