Prohibition and the Jefferson Davis Letter on Liberty

A reprint of ex president Jefferson Davis of Mississippi’s 1887 letter to Colonel Lubbock arguing against Prohibition. He frames government as protecting natural rights and warns against state and federal overreach, urging temperate use over total bans. The piece includes Milam County crime statistics comparing prohibition and anti prohibition periods to question the policy’s effectiveness.

Local option protest letter from Milam County Anti-Prohibition Committee

The Anti-Prohibition Committee led by H. C. Meyer argues for local self-government in Milam County precincts on liquor licenses. They urge voters to reject a countywide local option, citing Woodrow Wilson and Jeffersonian democracy, and criticize the Anti-Saloon League, urging unity and prosperity without imposing a county mandate.
