Why Vote Prohibition ?
BECAUSE Liquor has proved itself a CURSE. BECAUSE Liquor is one of the greatest promoters of crime. BECAUSE Liquor thrives only upon wasted money, wrecked manhpod, ruined homes. BECAUSE Liquor helps to fill our Courts with criminal cases; our gaols with prisoners; our hospitals with patients; our orphanages with children; our asylums with inmates. BECAUSE a Government has no right to legalise, foster or receive revenue from that which blights the lives of citizens. BECAUSE where Prohibition lias really been tried it has lessened crime, relieved suffering, uplifted human lives and created prosperity. IT HAS BEEN A BLESSING AND NOT All RSE. I mu»t vote and 1 will vote “PROHIBITION.”
