Tfco Sflcr City Grit m um- WEDNESDAY. March 10, 1915 The man who occasionally gets drunk is generally not naturally & had man. but merely weak; .nrl thav vield to temptation whleh atronsrer men can resist. Therefore, the desire on the part of the majority of the people of the state to protect such weak men by putting whiskey with out their reach. And this is wise. The compromise measure tiud bv the legislature Satur dv will meet with the approval of the people of the state with out regard to party, ine new whlikev law to take effect Ap- 'i i.f mMh?t the delivery of more than one quart of whiskey In fifteen days; in other words, a person can receive two quarts month, and not one cfrop over Ttinm nartnlA who insist that whiskey is necessary as medieim can continue to get their whiskey. sinee they surely would not need over two quarts a month; where as the blind tiger will be pushed out of business, for two quarto 8 month would not be a start jus1 a tantalizing whetting.of the ap petite. The House had passed a bill by a vote of 103 to 7 absolutely pro- hihitinor the shioment of whis key into the state, but the Sen &t hv 24 to 22 refused to do this, and instead passed an amendment to let the people vjte on the matter next August. "conference" committee, from House and Senate then was ap pointed and this committee at once framed and introduced the compromise measure of two tuarts a month, and it passed both branches without a dissent iatr vote and will take effec April 1st Before making a statement, three important points should always be borne in mind: 1st, is it true; 2nd, is it kind; 3rd, is it necessary. With these three es sentials, no one need have any fears of being characterized as in the class of "they say" that class which goes about literally seeking whom they may devour. vVhen the likker bill was be ing debated in Senate last week. one Senator from an eastern county facetiously offered an amendment outlawing 'simmon beer. Taboo 'simmon beer? Whv. that's the national drink in the state of Randolph! On and after April 1st, the morallv stunted will have to make a quart go a long way or themselves go a long way after it And vet some affiirm that Time is immutable! Mortfafe Sale.
