"LEST We F0RGET!"

In the closing hours of This CAM align, don't forget certain things that
have developed.
The campaign waged by the foreign brewery and liquor corporations
under the name of the SO called South Dakota Local Option League"
has been the campaign waged in the interest of the saloons and dives of
South Dakota. DON'T FORGET THAT.
Every known thief and bawd in South Dakota every known gambler
and plug ugly in the state has lined up under the banners of the South
Dakota Local Option League to save the state for the saloon and dive in
ter@s. DON'T FORGET THAT.
Without a single exception, from the president down, every alleged
official of this alleged League has always fought for license when the
saloon question was up and has always fought for everything that the
saloon wanted locally or in the state legislature. DON'T FORGET THAT.
So rank has this been that more than one fourth of the county presi
dents of the alleged organization have Tepudiated the fake, publicly de-
Canng that the use OF their names in connection with the fake organi-
cation was not authorized and denounced the forgery of their names.
DON'T FORGET THAT.
The alleged statistics of the vets of deplorable conditions said to
exist in dry states have been proven to be cheats and lies. DON'T FOR
GET THAT.
The letters and the paid advertising of the VETS is not prepared by the
officers at all but by a paid emmisSary of the vets of the outside organiza-
tons located at Sioux Falls DON'T FORGET THAT.
They have hid behind a postofice box in Huron, South Dakota, the
mail being taken out by an ex saloonkeeper seeking to further cover
their trail. DON'T FORGET THAT.
Much of their advertising" has been put out simultaneously by
Chicago Brewers Association, the interests of the two concerns being <
cisely in common. DON'T FORGET THAT.

The ISSUE NOW UP TO THE PEOPLE.

It's now up to the people to decide whether South Dakota will con-
tnue to be a game preserve for the foreign brewery corporations or
whether the state will be run by the people for the benefit of the people.
It's up to the people of the state to determine whether they will con-
tnue to put a price on their son and daughters or whether they will
make the streets OF South Dakota clean and safe for the young.
It's up to the people of the state to decide whether they will con-
tnue to authorize the setting of traps to destroy the boys and debauch the
kota shall be free of brewery domination and a safe place for home build

You can not build up a state by tearing down its citizens.
You "a not promote sobriety and thrift by opening saloons for the
promotion of drunkenness and sloh.
You can not promote chastity and clean living by operating brothels
in communion with dirty saloons.
Let the news go out over the wires on the night of November 7 hat
South Dakota has repudlted the saloon, the dive, the gambling hell and
has decided to Join the 10 other clean, dry states.
So vote on November 7 that if your 10 asks you if you voted for
the saloons you will not have to tell him that it is none of his business.
