“According t« th* Moore Model the

change from Hondo to Moore. Yancey

Frio county is* building nrads and Me-
dina in not. ‘ Devine News. What in

road*'' And were we deceived
when we were told that Medina
county had opened up u road from
Yancey to int»ir-*-et a Frio county road
at the couuty line, thereby making it
possible to change the mail route?
What sinister motive is behind thi-*
INtse deception? Where are we at?
It is passing strange that any saloon
man will allow even the suspicion that
the law is tieing violated about his
place of business. When th«w allow it,
they rob themselves of every defense
that can !»* offered for their business
anti lay down a gap for prohibition to
march through to victory. Tho people
who consume liquor and wish to buy it
without the inconvenience of sending
away for it anti being compelled to take
whatever vile stuff the mail order con-
cern sends them have a right to demand
that saloons conform to the law When
they do conform to.the law the onward
march of prohibition will Is- stopped.
