it's own, our legislature simply reflected sentiment
in the North and bent to the mandates of politi-
clans from states having millions of foreign-born
voters. For the additionally dry South to bow to
material interests of French, Italian, Spanish and
British distillers is inc6mprehensibe. The South
was recently the last outpost of untainted Ameri-
canism. Today she kisses this cherished heritage
goodbye at the behest Of bloatedbellied politicians
sent to Washington from the foreign sums of New
York, Chicago Cleveland, and Detroit. This is a
picture for southerners to contemplate with shame
and disgust. They have given an attentive ear to
the forces of depravity, debauchery, lust, and
rapne. In meeting this onslaught the dry forces
of North Carolina have been as impotent as little
children attempting to hold back an army. If any
generalship was displayed by the drys at Raleigh
during the 1885 session, when the bars were first
let down to liquor, then it has not come to our
attention.
