Declaration that they would mot br

present, Arsenc Perrilliat, has more
than $1,000 members in Louisiana,
Addressing Mr.. Bryan, the league in
its telegram said it wished to take issue
with him on the matter of prohibition,
and added:
"You and the school of thought YOU
speak for violate the spirit of our coun-
try and the intent of our constitution
every time you attempt to enforce in
the form Of sumptuary laws your ex-
trcme impracticablc and unwhoesomc

I've are glad the saloons have beer
closed. but in denying us. the beverages
with our meals and in our homes to
which. during many generations, our
families. have been accustomed, your
school OF class control has done us a
very great dctrmcnt.
1--WE. ms voters. will not be in sym

which ignores. our demands for the
modification Of the Nolstead law. 1t is
