Why the Dry Legislative Candidate Should Be Nominated

! The big issue is law enforcement,
which permeates every department of
state government It would. therefore,
| be inconsistent to choose man 10
| preside over a legislative body who
| has a record opposing the enforce
ment Of the law, or one who has been
! elected by the liberals, to break down
| the law enforcement machinery. Nv
| cry candidate should at this time ex-
pcct his constituency to desire to know
! how those seeking their votes stand
not only on law enforcement and
other anti-s0lOon measures, but also
on the organization Of the legisla
| ture.
The vets have not stopped fighting.
| Instead they have organized the Ma
tiGnal Association Opposed to Prohibit
| ton. They have already built an or
| ganilajion in Il states They boast
! OF a billion dollars to be used to re-
! peal the Prohibition statute.
For the above reasons, in every leg
| islative district in the state, the drys
must fight for men who are true to
| tho fundamental principles of our GOV
| ernmen. 1t is no longer a question
Of man favoring or opposing Prohi-
| bition, hut whether he is willing TO
stand by the Constitution OF the
! United States of America and lend his
efforts in public and private for the
enforcement Of its provisions.
The vets are pinning their hopes
! this time on the fact that the drys
are often prone to quit before the
| fight is entirely over and that par
! tial victory sometimes lulls the drys
to sleep In view CT the difficult cam
/ paien before us, the drys must wage
this fight vigorously. They should
insist that the legislative candidate
for whom they vote shall be pledged
absolutely, above other considerations,
TO stand. fight and vote against any
attempt to circumyent the dry laws
/ already enacted, and to insist on and
assist in, he big task Of enforcement
of those laws.
From Il careful survey Of the voting
| in the last legislature, it can easily be
seen that the election Of a law en-
fCrcement legislature will not be an
| easy thing to accomplish, and that 1t
| viii take the active support of every
| friend of the cause to get a majority
| in the next Assembly. The last time
| we had 81 twhen it required not less
than ~ for ratification, and 80 for
| law enforcement lwhen it required
not les than ~.
| | d Sale county should have at least
,, one vote in the general assembly that
will count on the dry side. If nomi-
mated and elected pledge myself to
support by work and by vote, any and
| all dry legislation and enforcement
measures; to oppose any and all at
tempt to rc.define Intoxicating beve"-
age, or any attempt to enact laws that
will permit Of the manufacture and
sale OF light wines and beer.
