The National Anti Saloon league in Washington denounces the saloon and urges overthrow of the traffic.

The Lever urges practical, unified political effort to suppress liquor despite league cautions.

Hard Times and Tax No Real Drop in Saloons

The Ohio State Journal notes that despite higher Dow tax from 250 to 360 dollars, saloon numbers remain about the same. It argues hard times and tax increases did not curb liquor traffic, aligning with Prohibition advocates' claim that taxation cannot cripple the trade.

Prohibitionists Embrace Independent Reform Path

In a call for unity, Prohibitionists reject party fusion and urge sticking to their course. They argue reforms must center on a common goal: overthrow the liquor traffic as the core obstacle to Christian citizenship and broader reform success.

Prohibition National Committee Plans Campaign Drive

The Prohibition National Executive Committee met in Chicago at the Sherman House and urged raising a twenty five thousand dollar campaign fund for 1897. They will deploy organizers nationwide, hire a press secretary, and attend state conferences while rejecting fusion with other parties. Liberally contributed funds signal strong voluntary support as the year promises heightened Prohibition activity.

Prohibition Party Urges Nationwide Alcohol Ban

The National Prohibition Convention declares the aim to suppress manufacture export import and sale of alcoholic beverages as vital to protect social and political institutions. It calls for unity of citizens to support prohibition through state and national legislation and refrains from pressuring other political questions. A state convention is planned for April 6-7 with Columbus likely as the site. The piece notes internal party moves in Chicago including resignation of a committee member for backing the Democrats.
