THEY CAN'T EXPLAIN THIS AWAY. lu a democratic country votes talk, and when they have spoken there is uo doubt about what they mean. Now, ask the New Zealand liquor traffic, how it is that, in the U.S.A., in the States that went dry before National Prohibition, the people, after trying it, voted to keep Prohibition by increasing majorities. Here are some of the votes that show that the voting majority like Prohibition: — Arizona. Dry majority, 1914 3.144 Dry majority, 1916 12.000 Increase in dry majority 8.856 Colorado. Dry majority. 1914 11,572 Dry majority, 1918 85.792 Increase m dry majority 74,220 Michigan. Dry majority, 1916 68,624 Dry majority. 1919 206,936 Increase in dry majority 138.312 Oregon. Dry majority. 1914 36,480 Dry majority, I'JK! 54.020 Inerea -c in dry majority 18,146 Ohio. Dry majority. Increase in di Washington. Increase in dry majority 196,404 The total aggregate increase in the "dry" majority for the si.\ .States was 7<j(V:2<) votes, after two years' trial. When we get New Zealand Prohibition we shall find the same results. People find out. when the liquor trafficis abolished, that a wasteful, unmitigated nuisance has been removedOnce they have tasted the benefits of Prohibition, no amount of lying and yelling by the liquor interests can befool the people into voting it back again. Prohibition is just eomraousensc.—N.Z. Alliance Publicity. (65).
