Jasper County Democrat, Volume 9, Number 29, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 20 October 1906 — THE PEOPLE WILL PROSECUTE OFFENDERS. [ARTICLE]

THE PEOPLE WILL PROSECUTE OFFENDERS.

The Democrat believes it voices the sentiment of a large majority of the citizens of Rensselaer in saying that a fair trial should be given the no liquor license feature just inaugurated here in the closing of the last saloon last Friday night via the remonstrance route, and whoever attempts to set the wih of the people aside in trafficking illegally in intoxicating liquors will do so at his own peril. The sentiment here is too unanimous toward giving" the no saloon feature a good honest trial to submit to any “blind tigers,” “boot legging’’ or any other method of illegal dispensing of liquors, a fact which anyone who is disposed to disregard the liquor laws will do well to paste in their hat.
