Excerpt from The Logic of ProhibitionThese studies are the outgrowth of practical campaign experience. They are designed to place before the reader, citizen or advocate, the salient points of the prohibition side of the great controversy at the smallest ex pense of time and labor. The subjects Were suggested by the opposition in speeches, pamphlets and joint debates. The discussion has to do with prin ciples and therefore makes little use of statistics. These change from year to year and are always available from other sources. In the long con¿ict the lines of battle are continually shifted and the methods of defense frequently changed. For this reason new prepa ration is needed for each campaign. A series of newspaper articles, some of which were circulated as pamphlets, brought such numerous requests for publication in permanent form that this little book is given to the public in the hope that it will prove helpful. The author desires to acknowledge the kindly services rendered in publi cation by Mr. Charles H. Prisk, editor and publisher of The Pasadena Star.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
