of ProW-
iH
kitioa H«r«.
Th« People ha» received the follow
ing communication, with the requeat
that it be published:
We, the members of the Prohibition
Prayer Circle, wish to present the four
reasons following as a basis of our
belief that it wUl be an evil day for our
county if the dispensary is reinstated
therein:
Plrat. Its principle is inherently
Irrong; if the selling of whiakey by the
individual is sinful, which the Scrip
tures support, fee selling of it by the
county is none fee loss so and each
supporter of it makes himself partly
i^spobiibte for the terrible results of
this traffic.
Second. We fool assured that the
county will not profit from a material
standpoint, for the Treasurer’s books
show that the bulk of the debt now
owed by the county was contracted
during the time when we had a dis
pensary. Its unprofitableness is well
illustrated by our State Dispensary, for
who will not aay that more than every
dollar of profit has been eaten
up by graft and corruption and invest!
gations of same?
Third. Wherever the sale of liquor
is legalized it is productive of political
ring rule of the very worst type. Those
who control it soon control the State
or county, as the case may be, hold
ing it with a grasp almost impossible to
loosen.
Fourth. We have good reason to
believe that not long hence Congress
will pass a rational law against the
granting of licenses for the sale of al
coholic liquor* wherever the State law*
prohibit
We ask for these ' reasons'' the
thoughtful and prayerful consideration
of every cituen of the county, particu
larly the voter*
