Springfield Journal: Congress propos-
es to restrict the number of liquor saloons in
the district OF Columbia to 200. This is a |
slap right into the face OF the majority in |
the next congress-. 1t will be an infringe |
ment ofpersonal liberty and is direct
atfront. The aforesaid majority that is TO |
be will very probably know how TO help !
itself--if it wants to. But the action Of the |
present majority would indicate that, in It's |
belief at least, the coming majority can be |
supplied with all the whiskey it may want !
by considerably less number of saloons
than were necessary to supply the present |
minority. Instead of "a slap in the face Cf |
tho majority of the next congress-" this lin
it upon the number Of Saloons in the dis.
trict by the present congress Is a direct
slap in its own face.
