We are willing for every man
to worship God as his conscience
directs him. But we demand the
same right. A-
Historj records much ^of past
troubles as caused by intelbr«toee
and Anaerica. a wild, unlnVliiCiDg,
savage dbuntry, was IsettlSd' to
escape intolerance. No. greater
blessing has come to humanity
than religious and political liber
ty, and that has built up Araer-
iicaimade it the greatest nation onr
earth. Are you tired of that, too?
Yes, history is a long drawnout
recital of intolerance, and the
Protestants, who were driven
from the Old World into the New
claimed the? were not responsi
ble for that intolerance, and I
believe history. Still, many main-
;ain that there is no danger of
liatory repeating itself. It is
very evident many have fears
on this feature of the situation.
It remains to be seen whether
the bosses can drive voters to
vote against their better judg
ments, and fall into line at the
order of their masters. We hope
the day of the party boss has
gone forever.
The day will come when we
will know exactivyvbo is right in
this contention dividing the Dem*
ocratic party. The party is di
vided. There can be no denying
that. Some prohibitionists are
laboring for prohibition by work
ing against it. Queer situation.'
