Temperance and the Anti-Saloon League

We do not know whether it is the liquor interests, or what is behind it; but we are receiving, from time to time, various communications against the Anti-Saloon League. We are told that it has been in existence nearly nineteen years, "bled the churches right and left for money, until their missionary efforts were crippled; and has made no accounting whatever for funds. If this is true, we are sorry, indeed. We stand for temperance and for every good thing that will help temperance on. We are sure that some of the Anti-Saloon League men are excellent men. We do not know that all are not. We wish, however, that it would be possible for workers in temperance lines to get together, to drop out of their politics all other issues save that of temperance, and hold to the one thing.
