our working citizens the vast sum
of 100000 annually, without be-
slowing any benefit npon them,
simply that the city and schools
district may get the paultry$5,0 900?
But this great sum does not cover
all the money loss, for the evils
attendant upon the saloons, and
which do not exist without saloons
would no doubt consume great
sum besides. But we will place it
at half the amount and say $50, 900
more is taken from the producer
by these satellites of the saloon. Is
not this staggering sum for COM
munity, such as is tributary to
Boomers Ferry, to squander in one
year, for the sake of having $4,000
easy money to spend upon streets
and schools.
How our town would prosper if
this amount were added annually
to the legitimate lines of trade. We
could pay in taxes, four times the
amount we received of the license
money and never know we were
taxed. But as matter of fact our
little $4,000 is pretty we'll eaten up
by the additional court, police and
jail expenses caused by drink. But
to give the dollar proposition all
the credit possible, we will assume
that the proprietors of the saloons
and the owners OF the buildings are
making very good money and
laying up a sum in the bank. We
will say they make 10 per cent net
upon all money taken in over the
bar and by the kindred evils. Ter
per cent of $4,000 is $4,000. But
this is enormously more than any
legitimate business makes net
Then we have the $4,000 to thu
city and school, $21, 5000 to EN-
ployers, $4,000 to proprietors, 6

Our city and county have long
since passed the pionesr conditions
of the frontier, where the popula-
ton consisted to great extent Of
the hardy, and in most cases hon.
est and good hearted, prospector,
trapper and adventurer. This
class were often OF free and easy
morals in so far as drinking and
gambling were concerned, chiefly
because they were away from
friends and home, with no one de-
pendent upon them, and became
careless of their conduct.
But we are now in the home
building stage and should regulate
our institutions accordingly. We
think that there will scarcely be
anyone undertake to maintain that
the saloon is help in home build
ing. 1t is rather likely to bring
the blush to the face of the good
citizen, to observe the drunkenness
and debauchery which inevitably
accompanies the saloon.
1t is embarrassing to pass a sal
DON with your children, have them
observe with fear the drunken men
ambling in and out with the 2rivel-
ing look of an imbecile upon their
faces, and with the vile smell of
the bottle coming from with
in. 1t is embarrassing to have
these children ask you about this
place, as children will. 1t is hard
to answer all their questions with
out telling falsehood or incrim-
mating yourself. Is not this true?
1t is not long since, that some OF
; our citizens agitated the making
of an Ordinance to prohibit sign
, boards from projecting over the
, street. What was the chiefsreason
behind this movement. twas the

to twenty saloons, with their signs

family.
Boomers Ferry is surrounded by
fruit growing country equal to
enatchee, with this difference il
our favor, that we need not irrigate.
Shall we retain a "so-called BUSH
ness" in our midst which will scare
away from us many home builders2
Wenatchee has not missed the
trihing sum formerly received from
licenses, but since becoming dry"
has made greater strides in i'm
provements THAI ever before. In
stead of the surplus money of her
citizens going to the Golfers of the
brewers and liquor manufacturers
it has been used in enterprises
which build up homes and make
prosperity.
BoEs PROHIBITION PROHIBIT.
Do not be deceived by the cry
that prohibition does not prohib
it" While this is no doubt literally
true. the same as the fact that the
law prohibiting murder does not
prohibit, in that, it does not alto
gether stop murder. The same
may be said of any law. But the best
answer to this cry is: that the
liquor interests are ready to use
large sums of money, and are work
ing overtime to defeat every pro
hibitory law that is proposed. If al
some state, "There will he NOR,
liquor cold than at present." VIII,
should not the liquor interests en-
courage the passage of such a law
and thus escape the license which
they now pay.
This bubble of deceit is easil,
punctured. Some of the most accom-
plished business ability of tn
country if behind the liquor busi
ness, ane they know what they ar
doing when they are fi9hing tn
prohibitorv measures.
If these same men could be force

is building up liquor trust.

Is building up liquor trust.
1t is mystery how we stand it
and keep out of the poor house;
and if it were not for our enormous
resources and unhounded prosper
ity we would surely go to the wall.
The average wage Garner, count
ing days last in year, does not
receive, upon an average, perhaps,
more than 5000 per year in wages.
OF this sum it must take $500 per
year to clothes and feed, leaving a
balance of $500 to lay up for a
rainy day or to spend at the saloon.
1t would take upon this basis, an
army of 500 working men with no
one dependant upon them, and only
the absolute necessities to maintain
life, to keep these saloons. 1t
seems incredible, yet we believe
that if the actual figures can be
obtained it will show fully as bad
as herein depicted.
This is certainly a ruinous sys-
tenn, shall we not at least try some
other and see if it will not be better.
Another item of a money con-
sideration is the effect upon immi-
grafton which saloons have. In
quire among our Real Estate men
will develop the fact that great
many homeseekers inquire about
saloons, and when told the truth,
''pass up" our town and county for
some place where their families
will not be exposed to this evil in
huence. Every settler we lose il
money loss to our city.
An item in newspaper of recent
date says that Wenatchee has ad.

done this summer. enatchee il

Wednesday May Is, Is the Day Set by
the Co. Commissioners to Vote
on Local Option.
HERE ARE THE FACTS
Over 100000 Spent Annually For Liquor In
Boomers Ferry Alone. The Saloons
Must Go.

Remember May %, is the date
set for the Local Option. 1t you
think the saloon is injurious to our
County do not fail to see that your
name is on the Registrars books,
and then do not fail to get out and
vote. Take more interest than this;
see that your neighbors and friends
are registered and make 1T a point
to got them all out to vote.
We have long been waiting for
this opportunity to strike a blow
for our homes and morals, now let
US make the most of it. The result
is by no means certain, therefore do
not be Indifferent.
Are saloons profitable to Boomers
Ferry? We will for the time being
ignore the MANAGE TO morals, youth
and public safety and consider this
proposition from a cold blooded
dollar standpoint. Does it pay our
city in money to have the saloons?
There are six saloons. From the
best information obtainable they
will take in over the bar $40, 800
Bonners Ferry herald. [volume] (Bonners Ferry, Idaho) 1904-current, 1910-05-14

each during a year. This is a con-
servative estimate. That is, in
round figures 100000 for the six
of them in one year. Of this
amount the City and School Dis
trict get $4,410 plus the amount of
City License which has been placed
upon them, making total Of 5000.
This leaves practically $4,000.
Allow each saloon wage for three
men at 800 per month each, which
is fair pay in legitimate bushes,
and we have $21 600, which goes to
these Is men each year for conduct
ing business which not only ruins
the man on the outside of the bar,
bnt will also "get" the man inside
the bar sooner or later if he "stays
with it," But even this amount
still leaves $73,400 which is sent
outside to the brewers and distillers
for goods which do not nourish the
physical system, but undermine
and destroy it as we'll as the mora
system. Does it not seem folly tC
