User-Contributed Transcription Be sure you are right and then go ahead. If we would accomplish anything in the temperance cause, or in any good cause, we must have perseverance and resolution - no difficulties or opposition must be allowed to turn us from our purpose - we must never do evil that good may come, nor having put our hand to the plough, turn back lest we may hurt the feelings of some. We say that ours is a strong organization, because "in union is strength"; but we shall be weak indeed if we shoot our arrows only where they will hurt nobody. If we would put down the liquor traffick in our midst - we must work earnestly and without the fear of man. We cannot now prevent the granting of licenses, but can see that no one violates them - Let us be earnest about this, and not ask, what will be the consequences.
