State League First to Take
Worldwide Action ;.
CAMPAIGN BEGINS
With GREAT RALLY
A Victory Meeting and Worldwide
Conference Combined
DIR. RUSSELL PRESENT

Immediately following the great vic
tory at the state house Illinois drys
prepared for the next step in the
campaign against John Barleycorn.
Even after America is dry there will
be no rest for the wicked booze
traffic. The following account OF the
worldwide Prohibition conference,
the first in Illinois, is taken from the
Springfield State Journal:
with clenched fist and appraised
arm, and repeating By Gods help we
will sec this thing through the audi
ence at the dry victory celebration
at the First Methodist church went
on record as favoring fight for
world wide Prohibition.
with not less than twenty-seven
states having ratified the amendment
to the Constitution, and considering
il foregonc conclusion that sufficient
states would fall in line, the officials
and friends of the ant-saoon forces
pledged their loyalty to campaign
for temperance among all the civilized
nations of the world.
'Interspersed with amens. hymns
and applause, the Prohibition forces
under the leadership Of State Super
intendent F. Scott Mcbride, had a
celebration and jollifcaton meeting
over the Prohibition victory OF few
hours previous. Tribute was paid to
early leaders OF the movement, such
as Frances Z. Willard and Abraham
Lincoln, who is credited with having
drawn up the draft of the first anti
saloon bill presented to the Illinois
Legislature.
"Attention was called to the fact
that the fight is not yet won over
even in this country, and that it will
mean many a bitter struggle before
ssme officials and the residents of
some portions of the country see that
The general sentiment of the country
is for the abolition of the traffic.

ovation Briefly he reviewed the his
tory of the fight for ratification COM
mencing two years ago and ending
when the roll call began on the morn

Dr. p. A. Baker, national superin

satisfaction he wired him the result
Of the vote The officers and work
ers Of the Anti-Saloon League were
presented to the audience.
Howard II. Russell of Wcsterville.
the founder of the Anti-Saloon
League, made the main address of the
rally. He spoke of Lincoln and his
work for temperance, stating that in
the campaign of 1851 Lincoln was the
chief speaker for the drys. Doctor
Russell also mentioned Frances Will
lard and John c. Wolley as famous
Illinoisians whose work contributed
to the victory. Doctor Russell
brought out the fact that for six years
and half he was a resident of Illi-
nois. Just before organizing the
Anti-Saloon League Doctor Russell
was preacher in Chicago. Referring

Not without thy wondrous story
Illinois, When the Speaker of the
House of Representative at 12:47
p m, on January 14th announced the
vote of "a to 90 in favor of the Ma
tional Prohibition resolution, Illinois
took her place OH the honor roll The
Illinois Senate had previously ratified
by a vote OF SO to Is, therefore the
House vote was the final act in the
long and hard fight to win Illinois as
one OF the thirty-six states needed to
s,rlis,c .lffc c1ltii. ii " ecr
tutional amendment
First Wet State This Year
Unless California. which ratified on
the same day, took action at an earlier
hour, Illinois was the first wet state
to ratify this year In other words
Illinois was the first state to ratify
with Legislature elected on the rati-
fication issue. States previously rati-
Tying were either dry or had been
voted dry before the Legislature con-
vened.
Race Against Other States
In accordance with an agreement
made by Representatives on both sides
the ratification resolution was to be
the first legislative business of the
Illinois House when it convened on
Tuesday. The dry forces were not
only anxious to ratify, but were eager
to do so among the first thirty-siX.
The race against time added to the
unprecedented interest in the passage
of the resolution itself Fear that by
some combination of unfavorablc cir
cumstances ratification might be de-
fcated was not greater than anxiety
lest even slight delay might put Hi
nois on the honor list only after the
names of thirty-siX other states had
been written there first
Drys Ready for the Test
When the House was called to or
der shortly before II o'clock the dry
forces were fully prepared for the
fight, Weeks of tireless efforts on
the part of dry leaders eliminated
with every man ready to do his part
when the Speakers gavel fell at the
eventful hour.
The Battle Commences
Homer Tice, Republican, of Green
view was the floor leader of the drys
Truman r. Smell of Carlinvile was
the dry leader on the Democratic side
When Speaker Shanahan announced
that the business before the House
was the consideration of the National
Prohibition resolution, Mr.. Tice
moved that the House concur in the
action taken by the Senate and pass
the resolution. Immediately Thomas
Curran of Chicago, one of the wet
leaders, moved to lay the motion on
the table. The battle was on. Fur
ther action on the resolution was then
delayed just long enough to admin
lister the oath of Office to Representa-
tive Garry Noonan of Chicago Moo
nan was wet and the taking of his
seat completed the mobilization Of
the liquor forces on the floor. During
the interruption the vets switched
their tactics. Tom Curran withdrew
his motion to lay the motion for con-
sideration of the resolution on the
table. Then Lee Oneal Brown got
into action. He moved to refer the

Wet Tactics Exposed

wei ioSiSS EApOSSu
As this committee was rot yet APP
pointed the success OF his motion
would have delayed further action on
ratification for two weeks Al the least.
Mr.. Brown argued that Illinois might
make herself ridiculous in the eyes of
the nation should She take hasty ac-
tion on the amendment. Trnnan
Snell exposed Braun,s ilssineeFit i cx=
planned that delay was an expedient to
defeat. and declared that Illinois
would be made ridiculous should she
fail to act until after 80 other states
had ratified The people in The gal
leries greeted Smells thrust at Brown
with ringing applause. 1t was appar-
ent that their sympathes were over
whemingly dry. Few vets were on
hand to see the fight. Lee Oneal
Brown Immediately rose and pro-
tested vigorously against the dcmon-
stration.
WctS t1dVC mo SnOW at All
The audience continued applaudng
while the Speaker raped for order.
As soon as Brown could make HIM
self heard he irritably declared that
the proceedings we're not vaudeville
show The galleries good naturedly
subsidized. They senscd prospective
victory for the first time during the
tense morning from the fact that the
vets were fighting for delay, an adj
mission that they had no show at all'
OF defeating the resolution if it was
brought TO vote.
Drys Win on First Vote
Wasting no further words the drys
on the floor started the machinery ia
tlatten out the wet opposition on the
floor OF the Illinois House Floor
Leader Tice moved to lay Browns
motion on the table The clerk called
the roll The result was 81 to o5
against referring the resolution TO the
judiciary committee. This meant that
the drys were ready for business and
that they had at least 81 votes, four
more than the II needed to pass the
resolution. The question then was.
Shall the House concur in the pas
sage OF the ratification resolution
The Debate Opens
The drys did not plan any oratory.
In former sessions they had made
many speeches on the floor of the
House But OH this day for the first
time they had enough votes to win,
and actions speak louder than
words" The proceedings promised
to be dry in double sense. But the
next half hour was perhaps the most
thrilling ever experienced in Illinois
legislative fights on the drink ques-
ton.
Colored Orator Springs Sensation
Dieterich of Beardstown uncorked
the wet arguments, and very, very un-
Intentionally precipitated spectacu-
lar and sensational debate on the floor
of the House. Admitting that he did
not expect to make any votes Repre-
sentative Dieterich based his speech
on an editorial from the Chicago
Tribune of Sunday, January II. In
the editorial which opposed ratifca-
tion the writer stated that it was writ
