persons ins the city, counting men,
women and children. This IS, OF
course, q preposterous average. IL ls
demoralizing in the last degree, Ii Is
a detriment to legitimate business,
and to none lis it more, ruinous than
to the liquor dealers themselves. 1t
is impossible for them all to make a
livingssaand in the struggle for exist
epce some of the lower class drift into
all sorts of evil ways. The family
trade, the cultivation Of custom
among boy pool and card play
ers, the creation of headquarters
for gangs of ~loafers, the family, side
door, can and bottle trade, the sale to
men already drunk, the frequenting
of saloons by loose women-all these
things which make the liquor traffic
most evil and most dangerous are
largely the result of the mad over
crowding of the business and the re-
sulting competition for patronage.
1t was hoped that the Werts law by
placing the license at a good, stiff
figure, $3.50, would reduce the evil.
1t did in a certain degree. Many low
groggeries and filthy dives were wiped
out. But the breweries came to the
rescue of many places which had no
legitimate reason for existing, and so
the number of open saloons in the
city has-skept steadily ahead OF the
city's needs.
IA place ofSthis size and with our
mixed population has probably fair
business for 450 to 500 well conducted
saloons and bar rooms of.all classes.
If the number could be reduced to
that point the abuses of liquor sell
ing would, to a certainty, be reduced
to a minimum. The number that we
are likely still to have after he prom
ised reduction, will run anywhere
from 600 to 700. The relief even in
this reduction will be great and bene-
ficially felt. But, in the long run,
either the saloons must close or the
city must grow up to them. There
is not a living for all.
The reduction OF city revenue from
the change will not prove a serious
matter. The bad thing is the number
of vacant stores that are likely to be
thrown on the market. They may
have a very bad effect ons rents for "a
time. But that will pass too, and in
the long run the city will be a gamer
in every way through ceasing to be
run ridden in the shocking degree
that now prevails.
