Den.oc yt © rule wt tic people, say ad On {cratic TAKEN TOTS | By the Prohibitionest for Our Logte on the All-Important Question, Epiror Times: “ e have ever regard. every movement looking to the moraland material weltare of our country, and with »pride have noted the many tiinely words it bas uttered in behalf ot jaw and order jin the part. But judge of our surprise bon reading the article in your last issue entitled “Prohibition vs Democracy.” We regarded this 2 very unfortunate ar ; ticle, not so much for the alliance as tor the ‘Limes and its influence. tn the first place the Times had aright to accept or, the alliance. We make no complaint tory ot the prohibition movement the grand old Democracic party has done more than any other party to curry it tom ward, in tact Democracy gave it birth, fer the first constitutional amendment was adopted py a Democratic state, con- trolled by men ‘voting Demucratic princi- ples. Besides to say that the Democratic party ot Missouri al present is opposed to prohibition is wide ot the mark. ‘The editor of the Times was present at the Democratic state eonvention at Jefferson City and surely has not fe gotten the uncomfortable blow the ar wing of the party there received. We were proud of the Demucratic party cf Missouri when she said ther —Down with your anti-prohibition plank.”” We, the Democratic party ot Missouri, are in tavor of the largest per- sonal liberty con istant with the public welfare. This isthe clause in the plat- torm bearing on ths subject. Largest personal liberty consistant with pubiic welfare, not uniestricted liberty, but the largest that will not interfeic with public | - good. Now we will not argue the question as to whether the whiske, traffic is for the public good or not. This we think hardly admits o 4 question. Listen to Senator Vest in his Boonville speech: “The regulations of saloons demand the earnest and anxious consideration of every honest man and good citizen. Our sons appeal to us, our old mothers, wives and orphans with teartul eyes look up to us tor redress, My countryme n, the wrong has been with us; the wrong has been with the jurors of the country; the wrong has been with the voters of the country who did not elect officers to car- ry into execution the present statute laws.”” Remember that Senator Vesi is not a prohibitionist, but he here admits this traffic tu be a greatevil. He also ad- mits that it isnot inconsistant with the Democratic principles to be a prohibi- tionest. Prohibition is not undemocratic. be manufacture and sale ot obscene literature is prohibition,and no Democra ic conven- tion ever discarded the erin then talk of opposing prol principle, but again the principle or licensing ig prohibition The power tw license implies the power to prohibit in fact licensing is prot nin a meas ure e Times may be oppos:d to probi- bition and honestly so, bur we protest against having the party thus imisrepre-* sented. Having ‘ong been identified w.ta the Democratic party, we dislike to see our several princip inrepresented. t the peopiebe ieard. It the major- ity say away with the traffic, it is Demo- to udd a prohititory amend- ment; but if a majurity are opposed to it we submit, and not ti‘! them. (Signed) A NUMBER oF DEMOCRATS. For Rent.
