An interesting address by u. j,
Nitsche was read. the main points OF
which were that "the saloon reduces
the earning capacity of the laborine
man who patronizes it," and therefore
increases the supply of cheap labor,
and also produces nnder-c consumers OF
the products of skilled labor" while
Labor must bear its heavy burden taS
to support the criminals, imbeciles ano
paupers produced by the saloon.
Similar opinions were quoted IRON
