QUOTATIONS-NOTBYMRDEECAN LIVERPO )L.—“ I observe that the diminution in drunkenness to which the hoa constable refers synchronises with the diminution in the number of public houses. If that is more than an accidental coincidence* if there is a relation of cause qnd effect, the matter suggests very grave consideration by those who are charged with the granting, withholding or renewal of licenses.” 1 —(Lord Chief Justice Russell.) If wo could make England sober we might shut up 9-lOlhs nf our gaols.” — ( The present Lord Chief Justice of England.) “ Drink is the greatest curse that afflicts a nation.”— (Lord Chief Justice of Ireland). “’The root of almost all crime is drink.”- (Lord Justice Hawkins). “ Total and universal abstinence from Alcoholic liquors would greatly contribute to the health,' the prosperity, the morality, and the happiness of the human race.”- (Declaration signed by over 2006 Physicians and Surgeons. “ My experience leads me to take a decided stand sgainst the use of stimulants of all kinds.”- (Dr Nansen). I “Thousands of young men in Kansas never saw a saloon.”—(Goaernor Stanley, 1902). “ Igo so far as to say this, that if the State does not soon control the Liquor the Liquor Trade will control the State.”—(Lord Rosebery.) “ I am so much distressed at the evil work which alcohol is doing that at times I I feel fnclined to give up my profession, to give up everything, and go forth into tho world declaring a holy crusade against this enemy of mankind.” I — (Sir Andrew Clark, the eminent Physician). FELLOW ELECTORS : Will you vote for the perpetuation of a traffic that is declared by the highest authorities to be the chief scourge of the human race? We cannot believe you will, and therefore ask you to z STRIKE OUT THE TOP LINE ONLY ON THE DAY OF THE POLL.
