farious business, We need
state constitutional prohibition
and then stringent laws to en-
force il. When we have federal
prohibition and State prohibition
and where both federal and
state officers cooperate to break
up the selling of intoXicants, it
can he done.
Some say, 1T looks to me like
the whisky business is dead,
have killed snakes in my life and
would have "A pretty hard time to
hit one a deadly lick when he was
wriggling and striking, but after
| got him still snd apparently
dead always gave him a lick
when | had a good chance at him
to make sure of my game. So |
want to give this business one
more good lick while | have th,
chance.
Do you know that when wal
time prohibition went into elrec,
July LIST there were more whisky
| in bond in Kentucky than in nj
the rest of the United States put
together? And do YOU think
those distillers are going to let il
lie there and make no effort tt
dispose of it? Millions of dollars
lying up in these warehouses anC
make no effort to dispose of it
nc YOU think so you are badly
fooled. If any State needs
prohibition amendment certainly
| Kentucky does We now have ;
chance to get it, Shall we avail
ourselves of this opportunity
The Indifference of the temper
ance people can defeat it, nothing
else can.
