A sample as to what liquor will do was evidenced a few nights ago some miles from here when three men tanked up, went to a home, threw rocks against the house, cursed and snorted with the most awful language ever heard, tore down the door and frightened the woman and her aged mother almost to death, causing them to leave in the night without wraps. They went to a neighbor’s house and secured the aid of officers. When the officers entered they were met by a scene indescribable. The bed clothes were strewn all over the house, one of the animals rolled up in some of the things and the clean beds occupied by the others, shoes and all, and worst of all they had vomited all over the house. And yet thousands are saying “give us more liquor.” What would be the result with plenty of this vile stuff?
