THE SALOONS

The mass meeting held in the Meth
odist church, South, yesterday at ;
p. m. by the recently launched Citi
zens' Civic movement exceeded the
| expectations of the most sanglIine
The attendance was unusually large
for an afternoon meeting and the in
terest manifested indicated to the
| most casual observer that public sen

| that things be doing at The spring ell
ection ON the saloon issue. 1t was
evident that the representative aud
fence as a whole would not stand for
any sidetracking of the real issue
The declarations made were very
clear that the issue must be settled
around candidates for the council

loon license policy and whose charac-
ter would be sufficient guarantee OF
such pledges.
The speakers selected to open the
series of mass meetings to be held
by the Citizeas' movement were DR..
George Fowler and Rev. p. T. Ram
sey. DIR. Fowler spoke ON THE Liq-
uor Traffic from an Economic Stand
point" He spoke poiltedly and with
telling effect. His arguments on tne
financial loss to a community and na-
tioa caused by this traffic were unan-
Swerable. Some have requested that
it be given again in the near future.
"All wealth." he said, lis created
by labor. That which decreases the
efficiency of labor is an economic loss,
a financial loss He showed that this
traffic destroys completely the effic-
iency of one man in ten. That it de-
creases the products of labor. and
the demand for labor's products. IL
therefore depresses every legitimate
business and in addition adds pauper-
sm, criminals and helpless families

SO showed conclusively that the man

o the money involved furnishes less
than one-fifth as much labor as the
same amount of capital in other lines
of productive business. That with the
brewies and distileries closed there
would not only be less idleness but
there would be a greater demand for
labor. This would apply further in
the demand for life's necessities ana
Injuries, as the merchant and the
banker would find, as il has been
found to be true.
The address by Mr.. Ramsey dealt
with phases of the local campaign
which have thus far developed. Mr..
Ramsey began by saying that ne had
been asked to speak, not because he
was a minister but because he was
irst a citizen and that this meeting
represented a citizens movement. He
declared that there was no intention
