Prohibition Party speeches stir Michigan readers and debates
In a letter to the editors a reader comments on two speeches, one by Rev John Russell of Muskegon advocating prohibition and a Senate seat, the other by Dr A W Nichols the Populist candidate. The writer doubts prohibition as the sole fix for intemperance, cites state histories, argues licenses often outperform prohibition, and warns against party ambitions. The piece ends promising more remarks on Nichols.
