THE MUNICIPAL SALOON.
As Viewed by Mrs. I'm ma 4. Gran.
mer President Of IN State



A copy of circular letter addressed
to the members Of the South Dakota
legislature by attorney W. II. Lyon,
Rev. Grant and others concerning the
so-called municipal saloon lies before
me.
1t is difficult to persuade ones self
that any person wEo is really abreast
OF the times SO far as the temperance
movement IS concerned would seriously
advocate such a theory. No one, can
make u careful study Of the Gothenbury
system without reaching the conclusion
that it is a delusion and snare. The
letter to which refer promises COM
promises between the license system
and prohibition "which will not lntefere
with the individual right of citizens" J"
Let us remember between right and
wrong there is no ground save battle
ground.
Our prohibitory law does not dictate
what man shall drink but does pro-
vide that intOxicants as beverage shall
not be sold or given away. The supreme
court says there is no inherent right ia
the citizen TO manufacture or sell IN
toxicating liquors as a beverage.
This letter further states that the plan
is to prevent the abuse but not 10 pro
hibit the reasonable use of LIQUOR as a
beverage. Science tells us that such
liquors are poison and can not be used
at all ns beverage without injury, with.
out abuse. It is then 80 plausibly stated
that no liquor shall be sold, to minors.
nor arunkards, nor to anyone under the
influence Of drink, nor. to anyone who
has made an effort to reform from the
drink habit; that no liquor be sold op Sun.
day or election day and that lhe saloon
shall not be open later than 10 O'Clock.
That IS just the way saloon license al
ways reads. We have seen those cloven
footprints before and know their mean
ing. Such "restrictiOns' nre the Old. an
rendaya 1T all license lava and tho,
never were and mover will H.. enforced
NO lilnor shall b. nald ~ trunk sris J.

bers were elected tor the ensuing year:

Asst. Supt.-W. H. Kaufman.

Supt. Mr.. &. A Wood was reelected by
a unanimous vote of the members of the
church on Saturday evening for Supt.
of the Sunday school for the coming year.
With few exceptions most Of the old offi-
GERS were re instated.
Mr.. A. 7. Horton who has acted AS the
efficient secretary for the past two years,
and who was again placed in nomination,
declined to serve in that capacity longer,
stating that he desired to enter the
young mems class in the school. Mr..
Horton during his secretarysEip has been
faithful to his post of duty, his presence
rarely missed during his term of office.
The members of the school approaching
hs past labors would not let him wholly
out Of the harness but kept him in line
by electing him Assistant Secretary.
The year just passed has been very
prosperous one. both as to numbers and
also the financial condition OF affairs.
The new year starts out very encourag-
ing and promises to eclipse anything
heretofore done IN the work Of the school.

The Panama scandal in France is
shaking that country to its foundation.
The developments are Of the most start

resorted to to secure legislation for the

Reports from Pierre in regard to re-
submission are not as favorable for that
question as they were at first. The over
confident friends of the saloon predicted
an easy and victorious settlement of the
question, but as the members came to be
polled, the necessary majority for resub-
mission failed to show up. While the
present law has been openly violated in
many places, and is not always enforced
as it should be, still the people of South
Dakota are not going back to the open
saloon as remedy for this. The great
argument Of resubmsssionists is that the
law is not strictly enforced, but notwith-
standing this fact there are thousands OF
men in tie state who voted for license at
the adoption OF the constitutional amend
ment who are not in favor of q return OF
the legallized traffic, with all its attend
ant evils. That there has been change
Of sentiment in this respect is evidenced
by the fact that many of the open friends
of the saloon have not the hardihood to
advocate its return in the old form, but
plead for municipal or governmental
saloon. In another column will be
found scathing review Of this proposal
written by the president Of the State W.
