~)EFORE allowing yourself to be misled by specious advertisements appealing to your cupidity—tho basest of all J 1 human pass-ions-Ajonsidor earetully tho following facts : As Wluch Money is spent in Liquor undor No-License as under License. Tho Customs and* Excise Duties collected in Invorcargill No-License District, last year, for spirits and boor, exceeded by £162 3S 2d tho amount collected in 1903 under License. No-License introduces the evil of Sly-grog? selling and merely substitutes unsupervised drinking for drinking under proper supervision. This constitutes a real danger to the home, as it leads tv increased drinking among young: men. Inspector Mitchell, of Invercargill, in his official report, last year, s^id:—"lt is by no means an uncommon sight to see a number of young fellows collected round a keg on the nadside, or in an adjoining paddock, some of them showing signs of excessive drinking, and yet tho police are powerless. In a rocent case, the nolice proved tho sale of 117 gallons of beer and 80 cases of whisky in two months, and express their belief that this represented only half or quarter the actual amount sold." This is oni,t one case out of dozsns, WILL YOU VOTE FOR THE "RUIN AND DEGRADATION OF THE YOUNG EVEN IF IT FAYS YOU ? The S.M. Court returns at Ashburton show that the total sums sued for in the last throe years of License amounted to JC9.151 5s lid. In the first three years of No-Licenae that increased to £10,579 Is Bd. VOTE THUS: I VOTE THAT THE NUMBER OF LICENSES EXISTING IN THE DISTRICT CONTINUE., Remember to Strike Out the Two Last Lines.
