Prohibition Speech in Ohio Legislature 1857
A lengthy speech by Hon. L. C. Todd delivered January 26 1857 in the Ohio House argues for a stricter liquor ban. He denounces the intoxicating traffic as a public nuisance, links it to crime pauperism and political corruption, and urges enforcement by the people through the ballot box.
