saloon. Other business men keep mute
mouthed because they receive certain
favors or derive certain profits from the
saloon-keepers; others offer no opposi-
ton lest their own business should
suffer in consequence. The influence,
therefore, which flows out from the
saloon. on account of the large profits.
IS as subtle as it is baleful, penetrating
into every nook and corner Of society,
binding eyes, shutting mouths, stopp-
ing ears; intercepting. counteracting,
and folestalling good Influences; con-
Eliminating by its pervasion the whole
social atmosphere.
Money, then, throttles all opposition
to the saloon; and not only that. The
large profits induce the dealers to en-
courage drinking, and until the element
of private gain is taken out of the bust
ness we may expect to see the use of
liquor spreading. Greed behind the
bar will scruple at no device that prom
ises to increase the amount of drinking
and the number of drinkers. Boys are
captured and added to the roll OF habit
ual drinkers before they are of age.
2. As to greed's loss of interest in
the saloon. But little need be said in
regard to this, for it is manifest that
the interest of greed in the saloon is
wholly due to the gains. If. therefore,
the saloons were put into the hands of
temperance companies, the present
saloon-keepers might become the nois-
lest and most determined prohibition
lists. They may have contracted the
drink habit themselves, and their tastes
may have become so depraved that they
would want the saloon for the sake of
their appetites and because of their
craving for the old familiar and vulgar
associations. Otherwise they would
have no interest whatever If after a
time the saloons should be abolished by
a prohibitory law with the understand
ing that if they were revived they
should go again into the hands of tenn
perance companies. the present saloon
keeping class would make only feeble
effort to secure their restoration. If
that were true in Iowa to-day the pres
ent prohibitory law there would be in
little or no danger of repeal. -
