fRn Local option League.l

Although it has been made perfectly
plain by the advocates of the saloon in
Rock Island that the question of taxes
is not involved in the present cam
paign, there are still some people who
are wondering a little how the city is
to get along without the $4,000 saloon
revenue.
The question is, will II be possible
to run the city, operate all the neces-
sary departments, and make desirable
public improvements when this rev
enue has been cut off? The following
solution of this weighty problem is re
specially submitted to the city coun-
ell and the voters of Rock Island:
There is no public Improvement that
is so urgently needed in this city as a
general cleaning up. There is no one
thing that can be done that will result
in more of cleaning up than the clos
ing of the saloons. If the city can be
cleaned up at a cost of $1,000, the
money will be well spent. Therefore,
let the city council appropriate the
sum of $55, 900 for public improvements
for next season and let the improve
ment be made a cleanup. Close the
saloons as a public improvement, and
the entire loss of revenue will be Gov
cred by the appropriation of $4,000
for this Improvement
A new public park, extensions Of the
pavements, new equipment for the fire
department, or any other public i'm
provement that can be suggested is
of slight consequence compared to the
great benefits to be derived from the
closing of the saloons. Here is the
solution of the revenue difficulty.
Close the saloons, and make the most
desirable improvement in the city that
can be made.
Neither the Anti-Saloon league of Illi-
nois nor the Local Option league Of
Rock Island has any connection what
ever with the prohibition party. The
Anti-Saloon league is not a political
party Its members include men of
every party and of every shade of po-
litical opinion, who are united by the
one common purpose, to drive out the
saloons. When the saloons have Il
nally been abolished. the anti-saloon
league will end its existence, having
no further excuse for its being.
The question involved in next Tues
days election is not one of revenue,
nor of prohibition, but it is question
of an institution. The open saloon, the
greatest menace to manhood, Is the
issue at stake. Whether man shall
drink beer or not does not enter into
the question. Clarence barrow says
that it would probably be better for a
man If he would not drink, just as it
would be better for him not to eat too
much, but the present issue is not in
dividual drinking.
Is it right to put temptation in the
way of the man who Is too weak to
resist It? Is it right to license an in
stitution which corrupts and makes a
disgrace OF our municipal government?
Is it right to allow a certain class of
men to violate the laws openly and de-
family at their will. for their personal

CIV AUTHORIZATION League

One of the favorite arguments of
the prohibitionists, and which they
triumphantly bring forth as unanswer-
able, is the why do liquor men OPP
pose prohibition if it does not pro-
hibit?'
Notwithstanding the confidence of
the prohibitionists in this argument,
little reflection can, readily refute it,
and demonstrate that the position of
the liquor men is entirely logical
Even though prohibition fails to pro-
hibit, by its very nature is casts the
DDS of trade that springs up in its
wake and drives the business into
hands that will adapt themselves to
this illegitimate trade. The liquor
men, while they could make as much,
if not more, gain. than before, natur-
ally do not wish to see their business
under ban, and relegated into the
bands of those who are not subjected
to regulation or restriction.
AS citizens of the community in
which they do business they do not
believe in introducing an element that
will disrupt society and tend to de-
moralization, on the one hand. and to
espionage and persecution on the
other. They see the manifold evils
that ensue where prohibition is at
tempted and oppose it on the general
ground Of the public good, as well as
on the ground of interference with
their business, which, from being
legitimate, is stamped with illegiti-
macy under the new regime of prohi-
bition
It is well known also that the quail
ity of the liquors vended deteriorate
under prohibition, while the quantity
rather increases than otherwise. and
also the use of deleterious drugs in
creases, so that the last state OF the
