CANNOT MAKE WING
LESS ANGELSB BYLAW
In Unusual Letter, Full OF Truth
And Wisdom, Peter Demple
OF Sheridan Says Price Is
Too High For Prohibition.
Editor of Sheridan Post:

Editor of Sheridan Post:
What crime has not been committed
in the name of prohibition? What
outrage of liberty has not occurred in.
the name of this futile fanaticism?
We have seen, in two years, more
lives sacrificed to prohibition than the
open sale of liquors would take in half
a century. We have seen public Of
ficials debauched to defeat a form OF
sumptuary legislation to which man.
kind has never submitted-and never
will submit. We have seen legislat-
i've bodies prostituted il the name OF
morals" and these law-making bod
les enact legislation as pleased the
fancy of fanatics: and sleek reform
ers who live in ease and luxury thru
the oppression of the American peo-
pie.
We have seen the constitution SCOT
fed and Knocked by advocates OF pro-
hibition; and its guarantees overrfden
in a vain attempt to compel the peo-
pie to submit to a tyranny more abso-
lutte than ever dared by the despots
Of old. We have seen even the home
ruthlessly invaded by officials OF the
law, in defiance of the fourth amend
ment to the constitution and to the
outrage of every concept OF liberty. In
the name of prohibition. we have seer
the CONSTITUTIONS document written
ten to express the hopes of mankind
for thousands of years-undermined
aud ridiculed so that a spurious
amendment attached thereto through
hypocrisy and c%owardice may be fore
ed upon a people who object to its ty-
ranny.
We have seen the laws OF fanatics
strike down the exalted patriotism of
millions of our citizens; and turn love
of country to distrust of country. We
have see millions of our youths sent
forth to die for liberty; and those
who returned told that liberty is q
moth-eaten fallacy Of the enemy they
faced that freedom might endure.
We have Lied. we have oppressed,
we ave groveled in the mire of de-
ceit to serve the ends Of fantfcism
and tyranny. Today we are reaping
the harvest OF infamy that we have
sown, To-day we hear the cry going
up that we are sweeping forward to
the destruction of all law and order:
the result of arbitrary legislation
which was to make us a nation of
wingless angels.
Liquor is a mixture of smiles and
tears, of happiness and sorrow; even
as love is. In it turks danger, as
turks danger in gold, government and
religion. when abused. Its evils are
many and its joys are more. But, ac-
cuse it as one may: prove its evils as
one can, 1t has never in all the ages
swept a nation into tyranny and des-
truction. But despotism and fanatic
ism have wrecked nations from the
beginning of history. They will wreck
ours il we submit.
Liberty is too great a price to pay
for prohibition.

TWO ARE INJURED
IN AUTO ACCIDENT

An automobile accident which oc.
CURED on the canyon road east of the
Shoshone dam on Tuesday afternoon
resulted in the injuring of two ladies
Mrs. McCaskil and Miss Mccall of
Fromberg. Montana-and the shaking
up of Terry Barefield, driver and own
err of the car.
Another car, driven by Donald Nc.
Call. brother of the young lady victim.
had accompanied the Barefield a on
a trip up the river, and the accident
occurred on the way back to Cody.
While going down quite a steep
grade the brake clevis pulled loose,
making it impossible to hold the car
In check. AS the auto gained momen-
tum Mr.. Barefeld chose the alterna-
tive of steering 1t into the bank on
the upper side of the road, thus pre-
venting 1t from plunging over the
grade and into the river far below.
AS he did so the auto turned over.
Bareield and Mrs. McCaskill were
caught in the wreck, while Miss Nc
Call was thrown clear. She suffered
a dislocated shoulder, however. from
the force OF the fall. while Mrs. Nc
Caskill sustained a very wicked flesh
wound above her ankle. 1t is thought
no bones were broken.
The victims are now making pro-
gress toward recovery and congratu-
lating themselves that the accident
did not result in even more serious
consequences.
