Many intelligent' and well-mumn; eltuem, deceived and misled by the prohibition cry “Make Nebraska Dry,” believe that the adaption of the prohibitory amendment will make Nebraska “dry” and Innllh alcoholic bevenges from the state. That thu belul is a delusion and unloundd in fact is proven by the official promisei and statements of the organization which framed the Nebraska proln‘buory amendment and is leading the campaign for its adophon. The “Nebruh Dry Federation” in lh official arcument in support of the amendment filed with the Secretary of State says: “The proposed amendment does not ATTEMPT TO DEAL with the HABITS AND APPETITES of our citizens.” This is an astoundmg statement coming from the organization which is imploring citizens to “vote _Nebraska dry” and endeavoring by every means to persuade citizens to- believe that the adoption of the amendment will make Nebraska “dry.” mhn's::l to reduce either the USE_&F the ABUSE of alcoholic It is not intended to keep alcoholic beverages from the dnmhrd ‘nor the boy. But it is A PROMISE that under pro- _ hibitioh every person may USE or ABUSE these beverages in any, degree 3o long as they follow the “MAIL-ORDER PLAN” and send their money OUTSIDE THE STATE. prohibition advocates admit l.lut the amendment is not * The. statement' deserves -repeating: “NO ATTEMPT TO DEAL WITH THE HABITS AND APPETITES OF OUR CITI- ZENS.” Can anyone be deluded into the belief that this will make Nebraska “dry?” that.it will improve conditions and foster tem- perance when its only command is—“Use all you w.mt—but buy it qutsxde the state?” ‘ Kansas has tried this method and has suffered the penalty of .increased intemperance, increased \ crime, juvenile delinquency, pauperism and in- creased taxation. The result of this system of - “mail order” and “alley joint” distribution of atco- holic bevemges in prohibition states is forcnbly illustrated in the/following extnct. From the Wichita (Kan.) “Belcpn of September 20, 1916. The “Beacon” says:— “A young man suffering with a severe back strain called at the office of a Schweiter building physician a few days ago for treatment. While the doctor was attending him he told how he was injured. ‘I work in one of the railway freight warehouses,” }le said. ‘Last week we got a little behind with the unloading of iquor, cars, We unloaded one a day that week and this left us with three cars to unload Monday. I was hustllng along with the otbcr workmen and strained by back trying to lift a barrel of whisky.” The workman told the,physician that the railroad for which he workeéd brought from seven 1 ten carloads of beer and whisky to Wichita every week X These conditions are offered to Nebraska by the advo- cates of prohibition,—not a “dry” Nebraska but a Neb- raska flooded with an unrestricted supply of alcoholic fivegges far the mtemperate and the minor as well as others. { The Nebraska Prosperity League_ OPPOSED TOII‘A‘I'I PROHIBITION. .
