A SOBER APPEAL TO THINKING HEN.
Shall the Commercial and Industrial Prosperity -
perity of the State be Sacrificed to a
Delusive Sentimentalism ?
IBMSii'S ' MTEBIiL ffELFffi IfflLLHD.
Stnto Bonkcr ? , Merchnnts and Manufacturers Organize
for Mutual Protection Against the Prohibitory Amendment
to the Constitution , in Order to avert the Blight that
Always Follows In the Wake ofProhibition. .
We , the Undersigned Business Men of the State
\ Of Nebraska , In view of the results apparent
| l , from the attempts heretofore made to enforce
' $ prohibition in neighboring States , believing
that prohibition is not a true aid to temper
ance , do assert as a business proposition that
the incorporation of a prohibitory amendment
into the Constitution of the State of Nebraska
will be inimical to the best interests and
material welfare of the people of the State'by
retarding its development , depressing real
estate values , producing a disastrous stagna
tion of commerce and stoppage of immigration -
tion ;
Therefore , for our mutual protection and the
maintenance of our trade interests , we do hereby
organize ourselves into an association to bee
o
! known as the State Business Men's and
i
. / Bankers' Association , with headquarters at
Lincoln , Neb. , and auxiliary branches in the
cities , towns and villages throughout the State.
And we do hereby advise and urge our
friends to work and vote against said prohibitory
amendment at the election to be held Novem
ber 4 , 1890 :
