of the old internecine strife which will
be engendered by this whiskey agita

It is so unfortunate for the commu

taken place and the possibilities which
are for our plucking. Surely the con

may have, trying to help advance our

I have a horror of this whiskey fight.
I L means the loss of that splendid sup

mass of our people aie mere In favor
of prohibition than ever-, even though
they know it has not h.ni a fair show,
ami that it cannot have it until the
whole Stale of North Carolina has
been properly controlled. The condi

No law is ever enforced perfectly. It
cannot be in tin: nature of human

appeal to my friends, both wet and

I know It not possible to carry the

a change later which would permit It
but It. is not so now. If, however, the
policy was (hanged so as to sell liquor
