It traces 1853 1875 laws, compares repeal by tax regulation, and criticizes third party influence, urging Republicans to defend temperance by supporting constitutional prohibitions and existing laws.

She cites departments of work, opposes aligning with the national prohibition party, and backs Blaine over Cleveland while stressing constitutional methods and state action for prohibition.
