WHISKY AND BUSINESS

In some Kansas towns where there is
pronounced anti-prohibition sentiment
the argument is made that saloons help
the business of a town, and some people
pretend to believe it. That this t'argu-
ment'' is the worst kind of sophistry is
evident when one remembers that sa-
looms absorb q, great deal of money
that should go to the grocery, clothing
and dry goods stores, and other legiti-
mate lines of business. The man who
wastes his money for liquor cannot
spend it in the support of his family.
and every dollar that is spent in joints
is that much lost to the legitimate lines
of business.
For many years Fort Scott has been
notorious joint town but recently the
joints have been closed and it is re-
ported that they are closed for keeps.
In commenting on the situation the
Fort Scott Republican makes these very
sensible remarks:
''Since the lid went on, all the lunch
rooms and soda proprietors report a
big increase in their business. This
is natural, for many of the patrons of
the booze joints, on a pinch, can get
along by the liberal use of legitimate
beverages of q mild nature. Further,
there will be Just as much money in
circulation as before. The wage earn
ers will spend their money for some
thing else besides whisky and beer, and
before long we predict that every mer-
chant in the city will find that the clos
ing of the saloons has benefited his
business. There will be more clothes
bought for the family, more shoes for
the children, and men who have been
carrying debts at different places In
the past will have some money to
square UP. We are speaking now of
the reasonably temperate class of peo-
ple-the kind that takes a couple of
glasses of beer every day, amounting to
several dollars a month, but who will
not stoop to hiding out in the weeds
with a. gang of bootleggers tapping a
key.
I'VE are aware of the fact that MANY
business men Of Fort Scott honestly
think that the closing of the saloons
means ruin to the town. and an add
tional burden to the tax payers, But
that is all wrong. Have we forgotten
that the palmiest days Fort Scott evel
had were back in. the eighties. when moi
saloon was doing business?
LAS for the matter of revenue, thai
can be adjusted easily by a fair ana
a more equal distribution of taxation
not by raising taxes to any extent. Tn,
