Henry W. Grady, one of the
greatest orators America ever
produced, said this of the liquor
traffic:
“Tonight it enters an humble
home to strike the roses from
the cheeks, and tomorrow it chai
lenges this republic in the halls
of congress.
“Today it 'strikes a crust of
bread from a starving child, and
tomorrow it levies a tribute from
the government itself.
“There is no cottage humble
enough to escape it; no place
strong enough to shut it out. It
defies the law when it cannot co-
erce it.
“It is flexible to cajole, but
merciless in victory. It is the
mortal enemy of peace and order,
the despoiler of men and women,
the cloud that shadows the face
of children, the demon that has
dug more graves and sent more
souls unshrouded to judgment
than all the wars since Joshua
stood before Jericho.
