papers are to be penalized by such
underhand and disingenuous legisla-

der that the friends of this legisla-
ton have never thought of the BOOM
erang effects of such enterprise. There
are multitudes of persons who stand
for prohibition who do not stand for
tapping the tills of the newspapers as
punishment to them for failing in
all instances to support the prohibition
propaganda. There are hundreds of
persons who would vote for the cause
on merit who will be turned away
from it. if it adopts the proposed tao
tics. The measure is condemned in
public intelligence because it does not
harm the ones against whom it is pro-
fessedly directed-the Srewer; be-
cause it assails. the freedom of the
press which is the freedom of the
people; because it represents tactics
that are discreditable; because it is
dangerous innovation, and because it
is inspired by general aninus sgz.,,s.

should be and is likely to be killed
