The whiskey power in this country comes before the people and says, “ Oh. but you cannot stop it; you cannot prohibit us from carrying on this business, Listen to what John F. Cun- we are too strong.

If I would come along pise the quiet, pure joys of your streets and hold you up and home; to become vile in word, in say, “ I am too strong; you can act, in aspiration, to fetter them not prohibit me. Now license selves body and soul with the me to rob, to steal, to murder” — drink demon’s chain. To license if I were to go to your county then, this liquor traffic, means . courts or anywhere else and to surrender to an evil. No li make that demand it wouldn’ t cense means war against an take very long to dispose of my evil. Surely good and true men case. And yet these saloons are will not surrender to an evil. demanding, because they are so It is certainly a grand tribute strong, that they shall send 152, to a people to vote out the sa 000 people to drunkard’s graves loon, and the greater the ma every year in this country, and jority against the saloon the say, “ You cannot prohibit us greater the tribute to the people. from doing this, but you can NATION-WIDE PROHIBITION license ijs and regulate us.” BY 1920. To America, the birthplace of the local, State, National and World’s Woman Christian Tem perance Union, we hereby pro claim that within a decade pro hibition shall be placed in the Constitution of the United, States; and to this end we call to active co-operation all temper ance, prohibition, religious and philanthropic bodies; all patriotic, frateVnal, civic associations and all Americans who love their country !—Lillian M. N. Stevens, President National W. C. T. U., Sept., 1912. I say that the saloon is the labor union's mortal enemy and that unionism will never rise to its proper place, and will never stand erect in pride and power if it allows the liquor traffic to hang around its neck and strap upon its back this cursed thing which men call the saloon.—Rev. Father James E. Cassidy. I wish well to all trades but with a reserve. I hope the baker may bake and sell more bread. I hope the clothier may sell more yards of cloth and make more coats. I hope every farmer may sell more wheat. But I cannot say in my heart and conscience that I hope the brewer may brew more beer, or the distiller distill more spirits, or the publi cans sell more of both. The prosperity I wish to this one trade is that it should cease.— Card inal Ma n ning. SAVE THE BOY ! Have you a boy to spare ? The saloon is a great factory and unless it can have 2,000,000 from each generation for raw material some of these factories must close. One family out o f every five must contribute a boy in order to keep up the supply. Are you voting to help the liquor traffic, or are you voting to save the boy ? P Now is your time. CO M E ON.
