the Commercial and Industrial Pros

Delusive Sentimentalism ?
The Stnto Banker ? , Merchants and Manufacturers Organize
for Mutual Protection Against the Prohibitory Amendment
to-thelConstltutlon , In Order to avert the Blight that
Always Follows In the Wake of Prohibition.
-We , the Undersigned Business Men of the State
Of JMebraska , In view of the results app'arent
from the attempts heretofore made to enforce
prohibition in neighboring States , believing
that prohibition is not a true aid to temper

material welfare of the people of the State , by
retarding its development , depressing real

known as the State Business Men's and
4. 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-
