Patriotic Thieves

The patriotism of the brewers and dstillers Of
America has long been favorite theme of wet ora
tors and wet editors A visitor from Mars unac-
quainted with these makers of whisky and beer gain
ing all his information about their patriotism from
the mentioned above, would be fully per-
suaded that the average distiller and the average
brewer conducting his business for the sole purpose
of furnishing revenue to Uncle Sam. Revenue to keep
this glorious country off the financial rocks; that is
the distlers first He is the original Simon
pure patriot in America. He admits it himself His
own profits accrung from the business merely in
cidenta His first, his chief, is to keep Uncle
Sam from going bankrupt.
Such prattle may sound all right to man from
Mars but to the twentieth century American citizen
the distller's avowed concern for the governments
revenues is bosh. That $2o,oooooo robbery with
Uncle Sam the victim, perpetrated by Southern dis
tillers, which has just come to light gives true
estimate of whiskys patriotism. Then, too all the
people have not forgotten the whisky ring and its
depredatiOns of 1874.
The fact is brewers and distiers have but one
object in view, and that is to get the money.

Now Let the Gamblers and Holdup Men Make
Their Bids

According to a newspaper report one Sam u
Walker, former wholesale liquor dealer of West
Virginia. has made public offer to give bond to
pay off Virginia's debt of twelve million dollars with
interest and contribute $4,000 annually to perma-
nent highways in return for the license privileges in
West Virginia.
This offer coming from a wholesale liquor dealer
is interesting. Can be that wholesale liquor dealers
doing a thriving business in West Virginia?
Members of the trade better known the public than
Mr.. Walker insisting that Prohibition does not
prohibit that increased dry territory increased
sales for the wholesaler and mail order man.
Maybe Mr.. Walker is moved by spirit of pa
triotsm but suspect that the average West Virgin
ian will interpret his offer in the light of insult.
Any who thinks that he bride state with
a twelve million dollar offer to nAict the saloon
upon the people, after those people have outlawed the
saloon by 10000 majority misjudges the temper of
the rank and file of the commonwealth 1t is i'll

what's the matter with the Protective Association OF
Highway Robbers going the gamblers better in
