WHAT TIE PAPERS SAY.
S Coed Reae ons.

Here are six good reasons why YER
mont should vote in favor of the Ferry
Referendum at the coming March meet
ing:
1.-The liquor saloon always exerts
an evil influence. To license it, there
fore, is wrong and against public
policy.
"A town having license even for
single year suffers from the evil effects
for years afterwards. GrOton Is an
instance.
3--Tne demoralizing effects of the
licensed liquor saloon reach the sur
rounding towns, even tho Ugh they vote
strongly against license. This is
where the local option idea Stops over.
4-The annual vote on the license
question is always disturbing element
IN town meeting and tends toward
corrupt politics, bribery and fraud.
Whiskey and polite, don't mix well,
'alf-an'-'aIf.
5-The trend of the age is against
the use Of jntox sting liquors and the
liquor traffic. Big business and Zig
enterprises are no longer fabricated by
glass Of grog.
6-State- wide prohibition is just what
the liquor interests do not want. The
best of reasons, theI e fore, why We
should vote for it,
Everybody recognizes the haneful
influence Of the saloon Then why
attempt to regulate it 3! We believe in
discriminating it-St. JohnshuTy Re-
publican.

THE SALOON FOR THE SICK

Last week the Vergennes Enterprise
editorially discussed the subject. cal
cohol in the Sick ROOM quoted from
a recent Monitor editorial, and asked
why this paper. while admitting that
alcohol may have an occasional use in
medicine, supports the Perry bill which
forhids the legal purchase of alcohol
in Vermont. The Vergennes editor is
very careless to have missed para
graph in the editorial of ours from
which he quoted, in which this very
question was answered. Our point was
too feebly made it appears and the
Monitor will once more try to explain
The saloon, the legal offspring of the
local option law, cannot be brought TO
the sickroom nor can the sickroom be
taken to the saloon, and no physician
to our knowledge ever prescribed the
saloon for his patient.
Medically the saloon has absolutely
no place, and because there may tie 4
small use for alcohol in medicine is no
reason why Burlington needs 20 saloons
If saloons are necessary for medical
PURPOSES, think of the injustice local
option works on the east SIDE ofVermont
where some ten saloons, in the smaller
towns and at the extremes of the dis
trict are our only fount of health.
Not ONLY are we almost destitute Of
saloons but large sections over here
are without a druggists license, yet
we claim as good heath and lower
death rate than the west side of the
state
IF saloons are necessary for health
and the sick room, and stations for the
procuring of aIcoho! needed in every
town, then the present law is doing a
great Injustice
IF thew are not necessary will the
Vergennes editor do the Monitor the
favor of telling it just why he, wher
his editorial gives US to infer that he
il mot in favor of the open saloon,
supports measure which allows
licenses and protects open saloons! l.
the local option law espouses thne
in which YOU do not believe, what il
YOUR reason for supporting it? If 1t il
still because of this "alcohol for medi
cal purposes" buncombe, we depend
upon the Vergennes editor to set u
right on oar premises above.
And so we support the Perry measure
because we believe the saloon (Which
the Vergennes editor does not believe
in and whose sole existence is for thu
purpose of selling liquor as beverage
does much more harm than any curtail
ment or Punishment of the use o
alcohol for medical purposes can pos
sibly do.

TeIeurams In 1867.

Telegraphing by semaphore was in

by Lord George Murray, and by its
means the Admiralty was placed within

Outside Liquor Interests Working in
Vermont.
The campaign over the temperance
referendum for statewide prohibition
which is now interesting the people of
Vermont has enlisted the the active
support of the Wholesale Liquor Deal
ers' Association of Cincinnati, who
have been flooding the state with their
literature. Perhaps the most ms cad
ing of the literature that is flooding
the state is clipping from Finance.
a prominent financial paper, wherein it
is stated that the South is in a most
distressful condition financially be-
cause of prohibition. This article ap-
pears to be an editorial from Ell
nance" but the facts of the case are
it was printed in the paper as paid
advertisement in the interests Of
the liquor dealers. This is only a
sample of the unfair methods adopted
by those outsiders who are opposed to
statewide prohibition.
Campaign headquarters have been
opened in Burlington by an organlZa-
ton known as the Burlington Licensees
Association. This organization is well
equipped with an office force and the
necessary accessories for vigorous
campaign and is in charge Of George
H Steele Of Manchester. N. H.

now appears as experimenting one side

the big liquor interests 1t has also
| been announced that the Brewers
Association has offered to pay back
taxes of 700 citizens of Burlington and
that no qnes iois will he asked as to
how they will vote CD March z. There
is the best of reason for believing that
the Vermont Lo"al Option League is in
active correspondence with the Bur.

out.
