Let me give you some figures that speab for themselves. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1906, the national government had partner ship in 1885 distilleries. As its snai*. of that year’s business, our national government received, $143,394,044.12 an increase of over $143,394,000.00 over the previous year. During the same time our national government was also partner In a brewing busi ness that turned out 54,524,553 bar rels of beer. As Its dividend of rev enue from that Investment, the na tional government received 956.641,- 861.66. Why, then, is oar national government engaged In the drunkard making business? For the same rea son that every other individual now making or selling It is engaged In the business, for the money there Is In it For the sake of a few hundred mil lion dollars Uncle Sam is willing to sell the lives and liberty and happi ness of those whom he is pledged to protect. The man, the city, the State or the nation that would do that is gnllty before God and man. The liquor traffic and its attendant evil, drunkenness, is oar national sin. And our national government, more than any other power that be, is respon sible for that awful evil. If Uncle Sam would get out of the business it would not take long to put every other fellow out.
