Tia association la strongly opposed to the adoption of local option in Maaon county, because it believea that local option Is opposed to tha beat interests of that community. Im resolution on the question the association says: "WE BELIEVE THAT THE LICENSED 8ALOON IS THE BEST AND MOST PRACTICAL MEANS OF CONTROLLING THE LIQ- OUR TRAFFIC." i Now read what Mayor Keiser, a practical buaineaa man who haa the best Intereeta of Ludington and Mason county at heart, aaya in an open letter to the voters of the county: "I have gone very carefully over the provisions of the local option law, and find that the shipment Into local option counties ia not prohibited, and the carrier who brings it ia not liable. Any man may give it to his guest In hia but not elsewhere. Druggists may sell to certain persons 'such aa superintendents of achools, hospitals, medical or educational institutions, dentists, clergymen, and to others, for art, chemical, scientific or mechanical purpoaea. In oner words, the law does not prohibit liquor being shipped into local option counties nor its sale to certain persons for certain purposes, but it punishes ita consumption or sale at a beverage.

"So the law makea it easy to get liquor -into the county, but says it must not be drank aa a beverage, "I may be wrong, but I take the broad ground that it Is a poor law that placea people in a position where they are greatly tempted and makea them criminala if they yield. "If the laws were ao framed aa to remove the temptation much might be said of it from the moral aide, but not for this local option law. 7 "I find no prospect that the practical workings of the local option law will not Increase immorality in Ludington. The stand of the association of which I am secretary ia squarely upon the moral side of the question, and not otherwise. "The present law provides that If the keeper of a saloon Is found guilty of two violations of the law his license can be revoked, and aa secretary of IHe Mason County Business association, and personally, I am heartily In favor of the endorsement of that provision.

I have devoted much time during the past year to make myself acquainted with the actual practical aide of the enforcement of the law, and if I could think that the local option law would improve the moral condition in our city, I would be willing to make considerable sacrifice of financial interests." These are the viewa of a practical and successful business man, honored by the people of hia city with the office of mayor, and who ia now unopposed for is loyal to every Interest of his city. He ia opposed to local option, and so ia the association of -business men of which he ia secretary. Think it over. VOTE "NO" ELECTION DAY, APRIL 5th. tertained by Mr.
