LIQUOR AND TAXATION.
washington Post.)

Tennessee now makes a law over
the governors veto, closing the dis
tilleries of that state. Property said
to be worth $10,0OO,00O is affected,
and large revenue collected by the
government will be cut off.
What will be the end of all this
reform? Where is it to stop? 1t
would seem that the municipal laws
ought to be sufficient to regulate the
liquor traffic in any community with
out going to such lengths as the de-
struction of property and the curtail-
ment of government revenue. Ten
nessee can do what it pleases as to
local option, but when it strikes a
blow at the revenues its action be-
comes of Importance outside of the
state.
The temperance advocates are apt
to overlook the fact that they are
dealing with two-edged weapons
when they destroy breweries and
distilleries. The United States col
lects great sums through the taxa
tion of liquor The government is
sustained, in great measure, by its
receipts from the liquor traffic Al
ready the shrinkage in receipts as
a result of prohibition is very large,
and the deficit in the treasury grows
greater daily. If the internal reve-
nue. tax on liquor is to be wiped out,
another form of taxation must take
its place. Are the people ready TO
pay the price? They must be pre-
pared to go into their pockets in
support of their crusade against the
liquor trafic.
1t strikes us that a study of the
financial problems connected with
the prohibition movement would be
advisable. Reform is a fine thing,
but it is costly. Until the govern
ment shall have reorganized it's meth
ods of taxation, the prohibition
movement will not be one of senti-
ment alone. The fiscal system is
based upon recognition OF the liquor
traffic as lawful, subject to federal
license and taxation. II the states
make the traffic unlawful, and de-
stroy the revenue, they must look
for other and perhaps more burden.
some forms of federal taxation.
The question is not academic. II
is right at hand. Within two months
II Is probable that. the people will be
confronted with the subject in con
nection with the revision Of the tar

And now we have the mayor OF
that noted pottery town on our right,
East Liverpool, agitating the ques-
don of erecting a sanitarium for the
purpose of caring for the dope-hends
who have failed to patronize the
Ohio river boot-legger It's an actu-
al fact-Mayor Crawford, well known
as a prohibitionist and an enemy of
the saloon soliciting funds to care
for the unfortunate begger who re-
sorts to dope. 1t is needless to say
that East Liverpool is dry. 1t is per-
haps unnecessary to add that the
natural conclusion must be that if
prohibition OF the liquor business oc.
ours then dope takes the place of
liquor for those who are unable to
control their appetite. But will some
one inform US why the several thou.
sands OF moderate drinkers of East
Liverpool should be deprived Of their
PRIVILEGES because of the score or
more Of uneontrollables who abuse
themselves and everybody else.

Reading the speeches of some of
our Republican Senators relative to
the increase in tariff on certain ar
ticles we are impressed with the fact
of their animosiuy to the trusts. Tax
the trusts for revenue is their cry.
Increase the tax on tobacco nearly
double and we will get immediate
returns and compel the tobacco trust
to give up some of its ill-gotten gains.
We will protect the workingman by
making the tax on cheap cigars low
er, or at least let it remain as it is.
What rot. We wonder if there is
any misguided worker or voter in
the country who believes such talk?
DO you suppose for one minute that
the tobacco trust will pay any of the
increase? They're fools if they do.
The tobacco user will pay all increase
on taxes by the increase in the cost
OF the article they use. The tariff is
only scheme to take the dimes from
the pockets of the people without
their realizing that they are being
robbed.

1t is unanimously conceded that
Canton has the finest Auditorium,
with the largest seating capacity, Of
any city of its size in the U. S. or
even in the world. It is owned by
the peOple-the tax payers.
In our opinion it does not fulfil its
mission. Standing idle two thirds Of
the time because of the policy de-
manding compensation for its use.
Of course, it should not be indis-
criminately used by every Tom, Dick
or Harry that comes along, and only
the best productions are permissible.
There can, however, be new rules
inaugurated providing for its use by
concerts, lectures and meetings op-
Grated by the city that are not op-
Grated for gain, or course of popu-
lar lectures and concerts with an
admission charge of five or ten
cents to cover expenses. Even If it
did not pay expenses that should not
be any reason why the people could
not have the use of this magnificent
structure with the immense seating
capacity practically free Of charge,
and thus direct public benefit secur-

Our remarks of few weeks ago
that the anti-saloon movement was
simply a political game into which
the churches were being drawn, and
that it would result in the attempt to
control the state by the church is
borne out by the attitude of the U.
B. convention of last week which de-
clared itself ready to enter politics
in order to suppress monopoly and
ether things, among the good things
are-if you read between the lines
fat political jobs to be held by men
who declare themselves Saints.
Let me tell you, my brethren, ii
the Roman Catholic church had de-
clared itself as the U. B. church did,
within month we would have had
moving pictures showing the Pope
seated in the Presidential chair, and
hysterical churchmen calling on the
Governor for troops.

about dry towns read like a romance.
Every citizen filed with high re-
solve-instead of booze-and unborn
aphorisms, and empty of everything
else, showing us a Utopia for which
we ought to Immediately buy a ticket
and become imbued with soul thought
and pure living or be condemned to
the place where it is so dry that even
water is unknown. But-wait for a
year or two.

All the evils attendant upon the
saloon that were supposed to have
been discovered by the Anti-Saloon
league and the w. c. T. U. within
the time allotted to the brief span
given to our readers upon this earth,
were given to the world 5000 years
before Christ by Confucius. It's a
matter of history. The fact may re-
main that the Chinese have not dis
covered anything since, but the rea-
son is that they gave up the cup that
cheers and took up with the dope
pipe. No, there is nothing new in
all this argument.

We have in the city of Canton an
ardent Prohibitionist who is a deal
er in pianos. He denounces the sa.
loon at all times and all places-ex-
cept in the saloon where he goes to
sell his pianos. He is so indiscreet
as TO brag about how he takes the
saloon keepers money, and then de-
clares that every rum-seller is a
murderer" But he does not hesi-
tate to take the contaminated" mon
ey. Oh, no, that's purely business.
Holding the Democrat up by
one corner, he cried, Beer drops
from it, it's so wet" That's a mis-
take, my friend. That's only the
sweat created by the truths" about
Prohibition. The argument printed
is enough to make anybody sweat,
and the Anti-Saloon agitator is do
ing most of the perspiring.
