but I shall not waste words on such shal
low argument.
Husbands do you want your wives and
daughters insulted when passing along
the street by some drunken slouch. If not
stand up like men and say you will prose
cute the hrst man who opens a saloon
hero.
Look at York county this state ; it is
noted far and near as not having a saloon
in the county, and -for the high moral
standing of its citizens. Is its property
depreciating m value? Look at York the
county seat, a town which has increased
almost one thousand in population in the
last eighteeen months, ana then answer
me. Look again at- Seward a neighboring
town, which is but little larger now than
it was five years ago. And from these
two comparisons you may draw a conclu
sion, although I could cite you to dozens
of others. But hold, this is not a lecture
but before I close I want to say, and I
want it distinctly understood too, that the
party who opens a saloon here, must go
according to the Slocum Law, or he will
get into the worst kind of troubles.
