THE RICHMOND NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. NovEMBER 2s 1918

II was the first OF a series of meet
ings to be held throughout Ohio In an
EFFORT to place the State in the dry
column and to procure national pro-
hfbition.
In his argument for a national pro-
hibition amendment the former Gov
ernor said national prohibition would
strengthen the character of the ma
ton and create In this government a
new conscience and a new mind. He
pleaded with his hearers to be more
intelligent and more civilized and de-
stroy the liquor traffic in order to
bring about this change.
THE question Is not whether the
liquor traffic Is right or wrong, but
whether or not there is strength
enough in the American people to
eradicate national evil" he said.
IF this is done no scale can weigh
the good results that will flow from
the destruction of the liquor traffic. >

Il have never seen a city. State or
community rid itself OF the saloon
that has not been benefited The
poor man who thinks the saloon is
his friend is mistaken IF for no other
reason than the injustice the saloon
does to the poor. In requesting a ma
honal prohibition amendment we are
asking the government to pull the
liquor traffic out by the roots and
give humanity chance to grow.
ohio Is little backward, but 1t Is
coming. Here in Cincinnati when the
saloons arc gone you will have less
debt, better streets and better city.
The liquor traffic must go and
nothing can stop the onward march
of this movement"
Mr.. Patterson said when he was
Governor OF Tenness ee- he believed in
regulation and high license in regu
lating the liquor traffic, but he was
thankful he had found out the only

 Such station in Arizona would han dle the solution of such large problems as would be national in scope. while the State Bureau of Mines would handle the local problems It would m~an much to Arizona, as it would mean that the researches of a competent corps of investigators will be directed towards the many problems that have heretofore been unsolved. and which have kept many mineral deposits from operation.
