The sellers Of rum are getting out OF tenn
per with US, and say, "Let us alone." We
ask them, why they demand this and they
reply, ssThe law sanctions our business as well
as yours, and how would you like us to abuse
you2' We answer, that we are not abusing
them. What we say is the truth, and il it
can be shown that such things as we say of
their business is true Of ours, we will at once
desist. On the contrary, we.contend that our
business is not only lawful, but right, while
theirs is lawful, but not right. We say they
are building up themselves on the ruins Of
others, and that they cause their ruin by selling
them the poison. sfhe controversy is a very
imporaas sone; the truth is all on our side
and, we have, the advantage in all the argu-
men,s and our neighbors who act so unlike
neighbors ssto wish US 10 buy poisonous bev-
erages from them, have no other plea than
"let US alone" To this we plainly respond,
No. never; by the grace of God we will never
Jet you alone while you continue the woeful
traffic. We will no. strike you blow with
the sword, or Try 10 iniure you, but we will.
without ceasing, pour upon yeu the vollies of
the truth from hearts full OF love for you. and
for our race N::'Let US slons2" When you
"quit the trade''-- then we will.
