THE SALOON BAR.
A bar to heaven, a door to hell,
Whoever named it, named it well,
A bar to manliness and wealth,
A door to want and broken health,
A bar to honor, pride and fame,
A door to darkness and to shame
A bar that shuts from useful life.
A door to brawling, senseless strife,
A bar to all that’s true and brave,
A door to every drunkard’s grave,
A bar to joy that home imparts,
A door to tears and broken hearts,
A bar to heaven and door to hell,
Whoever named it, named it well.

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,

all Americans who love their

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 ?

Now is your time.
