Walker became dry when election to Congress required it. ExGov. Edwin P. Morrow became dry when political expediency demanded it. They are the dry leaders now. neither because they have ever rendered the cause one bit of service nor because they have ever practicedwhat they are now preaching. but solely by vote of the people. While openly opposing the views of Governor Smith on prohibition and immigration. I supported the Democratic ticket. because through the Democratic Party lay the only hope of remedying certain dangerous and deplorable conditions. A calloused public conscience seems to condone lawlessness among citizens and dishonesty amnong public officials.
