Socialists Position
on Liquor Question

Having: often been requested for an

ton on the liquor, question. here is an
outline of the Socialist doctrine so
far as il pertains 10 the liquor uucs-
ton. q Questio:! thnr IS inquest iona bly,
related to poverty, crane and general
human distress
No man conducts :: saloon from
choice or bCc;ilSe Ice believes il is;
n" buSircss that is bes: suited to his
tastes. Few men conduct saloons who
deep down in their hearts are not
ashamed of their business. Some how
or other they are made to fool that
the making of drllnEards is not quite
the business in which good man
shculG engage But men do never
theless conduct saloons. Why? Prof
its. that's the whole story Because
they can soil : cents worth cf whis-
Ky for 10 cents. Because they can
sell cents worth Ct beer for 5 ccnts.
Because they can get more money in
the saloon business than they can
earn in any other business aud just
so long as mea can be found who are
willing to pay 10 cents for , cents
worth of whisky. or :: cents for n
cents worth of beer, just so long will
be patrons of saloons lust 50 long as
will these saloons continue to make
drunkarGs. In other words there will
be DatrCls Of saloors Iustso long a.
