The League asserts th a t if the-wet proposal be made a pa rt of tho Con­ stitution, not only will i t repeal county option and tie the hands of tho legislature in enacting any further prohibitory laws, but It will also jeopardize the laws now on the statute books prohibiting Sunday selling and selling to minors and habitual drunkards. The League also holds that the liquor men are attempting to de­ ceive the voters by designating oa tbe ballot as the title for their proposal th a t i t “provides for home rule on the subject of intoxicating liquors,” wheja ip fact its object Is to destroy existing temperance laws and prevent the enactment of others. The League, therefore, will pre­ sent as an alternative, an amend­ ment for absolute state-wide Prohi­ bition, believing the voters will adopt it and end the attempted domination of the brewers of the affairs of the state* Pitts* Man’s Dilution.
