I believe he will either do this by advocating Prohibition, or else he will run on a Prohibition platform independent of the Democrats. But you will see that the year before the election he will organize a mammoth lecture tour and will make Prohibition the leading note of every address.”

It quickens: clarity, outline of leaf
But now the stark dignity of

has come upon them: rooted, they
grip down and begin to awaken”
