The Prohibitory Amendment.

Sunday a week ago an agent Of
the brewery interests Of Missouri
was in Jasper for the purpose of
placing advertising matter in this
paper to aid in the defeat of the
proposed statewide prohibition
amendment to the constitution of
Missouri. The matter was a care
fully written argument against the
amendment and was headed
"Statewide Prohibition in Mis-
souri," with the following sub
heads: THE Square Deal"
Home Rule in Missouri and
Consider the Cost"
We don't make a practice of re-
fusing advertising that pays as
good rates as the brewers are will
ing to pay-this gentleman told us
we could name our fgure-but we
do not propose to prostitute the
columns of this paper toGthe liquor
interests if we know it, any more
than we will print news of the ugly
side of life that is occasionally
brought to our notice, and our
readers know we do not do that
The brewers pleading for "a
Square Deall" a square deal for
whom? For the boys and girls,
wives, mothers. honest men and
happy homes of this country. or
for BUSINESS that spreads sorrow
and destruction equal to the
European war?
The brewers want Home Rule in
Missouri" But they don't want
the Home" to rule in Missouri.
What they mean and what they
know is the truth is that Missouri
homes have pushed the saloon out
of the rural districts into half
a dozen OF the cities. and they want
the people from the country to quit
fighting them, and allow them to
continue to grow fat by debauching
the poor and ignorant element of
the populated centers, and leave
them where they can continue to
send booze into dry territory.
And then they tell the taxpayers
to Consider the Cost" If the
taxpayers of this state will con-
slider the cost of paying police de-
partments, paying court expenses,
running jails and poor farms and a
thousand other things the saloon
makes the taxpayers pay for, they
will put the Missouri saloon out OF
business November 7 by voting for
the prohibitory amendment.
