OF keeping ones hair on his head
IL he would enter a military life
is no more absurd than Is the logic
that Tom, Dick and Harry need only
to acquire something thata success
full man chanced TO have In order
that they, too, shall become success
full.
Opportunity In life is everything.
In bald truth, too, most of the sue
cessful men in this world failed to
recognize their opportunity until af-
ter some necessity had launched
them toward II. This is enough, too,
in most of the complexities OF life.
Finally to recognize an opportunity
after chance has made IL and to act
wisely in making the best OF that
opportunity frequently requires all
the wisdom and faculties that are
accorded the ordinary mortal.
For the quack ignorantly to as
cribe more to the average success

and stone walls against the young
man OF ambition and meriocre quail
ifications. And thousand medic

economic evil.

up the present situation:
There are now Ave Prohibition
states--Malne. Georgia, North Da-

eight states and territories-Mon-

Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico
saloons are licensed with virtually no
restrictions. although some of these
have recently passed Sunday closing
laws. In all the other states there
is some form of local option. In
nearly all these local option states
the dry" territory has been stead
lily increasing for the last ten years.
In the south as whole IL has
doubled! In Texas 1t has tripled; In
Kentucky It has spread so widely
that the prediction is confidently
made that within three years the
state will take its place beside Gepr-

Apparently this remarkable gain
is not due to the Prohibition party,
as an organization, but to growth of
public sentiment adverse to the domi-
nance OF saloons. In the last Presl-
Dental election the Prohibition vote
was only double what II was twenty
years before, although under the
operation OF local option there had
been n vast increase in the number
of persons going dry" The anti
saloon movement has been -particu-
larly Strong. in the south but has
been quiet and free from sensational
features or spectacular leadership.
In the south its spread is attributed
chiefly to the belief that most OF the
crimes OF violence. especially those
committed by negroes which lead 70
lynchlng, are due to drink.

Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1908-01-02


In the foregoing the aim has been
simply to state the facts, without re-
gard to sentiment or opinion.
Their significance, as recognized
by leading organs OF the wine, beer
and liquor interests OF this country,
is that saloon keepers everywhere
should pay wholesome respect TO
public sentiment with regard to linn
itation OF number, hours OF closing,
restriction OF territory, and so
forth.
The pernicious activity OF the sa-
loon interest in politics In many
municipalities and states has been
one OF the exciting causes of prohibit
tory legislation. II is but reasonable
and natural that the makers and
dealers In intoxlcants should aim 10
protect their business, but in doing
so they should ba mindful OF the
evils, which II entails. Like Brewer
Busch, they should defer TO public
sentiment, not arrogantly oppose II.
Every respectable saloon keeper
should aid in the suppression of low
dives, and In the abolition OF every
feature OF the liquor traffic that Il
vicious and deplorable.
Saloons in the residence districts
of towns and cities are among the
confessed evils, and the producing
wine, brewing and liquor interests
should not be misled into opposing
their abolition.

SPREAD OF PROHIBITION
IN THE UNITED STATES

(From the Daily Sacramento Bee, a
n Anti-Prohibition Paper.) /.
Just because Asheville, North Car
olina. has adopted Prohibition, John
A. Roebling, after living there ten
wears. has given his half-million-
dollar mansion and country estate 20
the Home Mission Board Of the
Northern Presbyterian church, and
will return to New Jersey. He has
done this, he says, as a matter OF
principle, because he is opposed to
Prohibition.
Mr.. Roebling's convictions are en-
titled to respect, and no doubt he
believes Prohibition violation OF
individual liberty. Yet 1t is a funda-
mental principle of government in
this country that majorities rule, AMI
the doctrine has been laid down by
our highest courts that the liquor
traffic is entirely within the control
of the respective states. So IL a ma
jority Of tn voters In any state de-
eide for Prohibition, no resident has
a right to complain. And however
dry North Carolina might become
there would be nothing to prevent
Mr.. Roebling from drinking anything
he liked in his own home.

The march of Prohibition is so
rapid that a man bent on escaping u
might have to move pretty often,
and perhaps not be permanently set
tied anywhere outside of the grave
yard. The sale of intoxicants is now
prohibited in half the area of the
United States, inhabited by $4,000
600 people, which is considerably
more than one-third the total popula-
ton. This is due chiefly to local op-
tion laws. The population of the
United States has increased two and
a half times since 1870, while during
the same period the number OF per-
sons living under laws prohibiting
the sale of liquor has increased ten
fold.
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1908-01-02

Sunday closing Is also making
rapid progress in states and cities
where the sale of liquor is permitted.
In st. Louis and many other places
It Is strcitly enforced New Jersey
has of late set about IL actively.
There is a strong and growing agi-
tatioh in the state OF New York for
further restriction of the liquor
traffic, and the anti-saloon agitators
are hopeful of fast increasing the
number of dry" towns and of Sc
curing legislation allowing precinct
prohibition in Greater New York
and other large cities, which the leg
islatur o year ago refused to enact.
In California a large number OF
towns and cities, especially in the
southern part OF the state prohibit
saloons. and some connties are Who'll
ly "dry." Unquestionably, the drift
OF public sentiment in this states IS
toward further restriction OF the
liquor traffic, under tho operation Of
high license and local option.
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1908-01-02

Absolute Prohibition goes into
operation in Georgia on New Years
day. and a state Prohibition cam
paign is active In South Carolina,
whose former dispensary law has
been succeeded by local option. A
lively Prohibition movement is like
wise under way in North Carolina
and Mississippi. Only three cities In
Tennessee allow the sal eof liquor,
and 1t is likely to become a Prohibit
tion state before many years. In A
of 115 counties in Missouri. and lat
out of 247 In Texas, there are no
saloons. In Ohio so per cent of the
municipalities are dry" and in In
dianan more than half the town
ships.
