185411905New-York: American Temperance Union 1854. 1854. 16pp stitched. Light tan and wear old rubberstamp number Good. <br/><br/> Despite his "known character as a high-minded honorable man" Governor Seymour vetoed a bill that would prohibit the sale of intoxicating liquors. Seymour's argument that the bill constitutes an excessive governmental intrusion into private lives is nonsense: the traffic in liquor causes "murders and robberies and riots" and other social evils; moreover a State has constitutional power to regulate "its own internal traffic" as the U.S. Supreme Court has said. "Friends of temperance! We have a great conflict before us. We have fought long and we have fought well.The rotten license system can not stand." The good guys will win eventually although "the rum interest is a mighty power." <br/>Sabin 92840. Not in Eberstadt Decker BEAL. American Temperance Union unknown books
