License the Worst

The worst way to sell liquor, to buy it,
or drink it, is at the open, well-regulated
saloons The next worst way to buy,
or sell, or drink liquor, is at the blind
tiger. The next worst to the dispensary
is the little dispensed at home where the
liquors are bought from far away dealers
and dispensed by the owner to his friends.
There is no good way to buy it, sell it
or use it. The choice is between the worst
ways, for the community and the midi
vidual. An evil has no good side
