our knowledge and observation. the
best and most effective results are
obtained through strict regulation
and high license. When any one says
that the American saloon is an insti-
tuition of good morals he is making a
statement which every one knows is
false and there Is no defense of the
saloon as an institution. We recog-
nize 1t as an evil that cannot be elm
mated from our social or industrial
fabric and under such conditions its
evil influences may be minimized
and regulated by law, its immoral
tendency can be successfully COM
bated only by moral suasion and
training. There is constant improve
ment along this line as we may learn
by eomparisonof conditions now with a
few years ago when a man could hold
positions and drink, while now 1t Is
the sober, temperate man who wins
in the race, This Is illustrated clear
ly to us in a business way. We adver-
tised for help in our mechanical de-
partment and out of a dozen appIi-
cations received nine OF the twelve
stated that they were temperate.
