Nation, Carry Amelia, 1846-1911

"The Use and Need of the Life of Carry A. Nation"

And last March when he came to Topeka, Kansas, he outraged
every loyal citizen of the state by bringing into it a dive and all
who wished an intoxicating drink could get it by tipping the waiter. Let
his ministers deny this for him also. He ought to have been arrested
as any other dive-keeper.
This President who enjoys the sport of killing innocent animals,
this man who costs the people more than any other president, who has
so little regard for the people's treasury that he spent a quarter of
a million to look at the American fleet and took the treasured relics
of the people and sold them to a junk shop, vandalism!

MY VISIT TO YALE UNIVERSITY.
I have been to all the principal universities of the United States.
At Cambridge, where Harvard is situated, there are no saloons allowed,
but in Ann Arbor the places are thick where manhood is drugged and
destroyed. Also Yale, the latter being the worst I have ever seen. I will
insert two letters which I got on March 1st, 1904, and have received several
more of the kind from the students:
"Dear Mrs. Nation:--As an ardent prohibitionist and an enemy of
the liquor traffic, I feel obliged to bring to your notice some of the things
that are served to the young men at Yale Dining Hall by the college
authorities." (In this letter were several bills of fare.) "You will see
how many of the dishes are served with intoxicating liquors as sauces.
