was the knife. the pistol, the bludgeon
and the purse. If the saloons were
deposed from power, if these meeting
places were scattered and destroyed 1t
would take them out of politics. There
would be no trouble to secure the con
viction of the bootlegger, but that the
Indictment of the saloon keeper Is
hard tn secure. and after indictment
the conviction of the keeper of an open
saloon was a difficult proposition.
Mr.. Hughes further said that DARK
as was the history of the saloon IN the
matters Just referred to, that they fur-
n;sbed only dim outline of what were
tbo real injuries inflicted upon society
nv the open saloon. That it was IN
its relation to society as a social COM
;,act that the greatest harm was done,
fine destruction of moral character, the
want and penury inflicted upon those
who were helpless to resist 1t.
That very recently the country had
been flooded with letters and appeals
from the Society for the Prevention OF
Child Labor; that he himself had re-
lceived several such communications
and that he heartily endorsed the pur-
nose of the League, but that he felt
like replying to these communications
that one of the surest methods OF pre-
venting child labor would be to de-
stroy the saloon and send back TO the
pursuits of life and labor the men VINO
, were suuandering their means In the
qualification of their thirst, and VINO
were in many instances taking the
very earnings of their family for that
nurnose. The motto of this League
as EXPRESSED on their circulars and
, papers is an expression of philips
Brooks. to the effect that HE who
, helps a child, helps humanity, with
4, distinctness and immediateness thai
j.. such help at any other period OF hu
f man life cannot give" Mr.. Hughes
said that as an antithesis to this Il
/. should be said that he who injuries
r child, morally Injuries humanity VIII
: a distinctness and immediateness ina
e an injury inflicted upon human iir'
q at anv other time would not produce
E such disastrous results.
e In conclusion Mr.. Hughes Appealed
5 to every lover of order to every tru'
e patriot, to every man who reyerence'
a his Maker. who loved his home ant
a who was willing to protect his neigh
$ boris home and his neighbor's DO!
