MPERIAL's DESTINY INVOLVED

The city of Imperial will in a few
days vote on the question of licensing
saloons, and with keen irony there
comes forward an alleged organization
calling itself the Imperial Progressive
League
Imperial county never yet has had a
place licensed TO sell liquor for beverage
purposes, and now this league of prog
ress'' proposes to install booze endowed
with governmental authority.
For more than a hundred years the
American people have been making
progress in the restriction of intemper-
anoe,- but now this league" proposes To
progress backward to the point which
the American people are rapidly desert
ing.
Imperial, with full warrant. has been
proud of its school system, admitted
standing in the very forefront of the
schools of California, and because of the
high character of the schools. pupils have
gone there from all parts of the valley
Now the league proposes to supplement
the schools of the town with saloons. in
which the young men can take post grad
uate courses and fit themselves for the
duties of life by drunkenness under the
sanction of law.
And how many families is it supposed
will send the.r children from the country
to the schools of town that tells them
that the proper finishing course OF an
education is the debauchery that is in
separable from saloons?
Is any person so lost in imbecility
that he can for moment imagine that
the same town can be renowned for its
schools and for its licensed drunken
ness? The day saloons enter Imperial its
high-school dies. 1t may continue as

There may be, and there probably are
standing who are led into favoring Ii
cense, but with them there is eeery
gambler. every loafer in the community
and the whole valley has been raked
over for voters to register ss residents
of Imperial and help trap the town into
the abyss of debauchery which lies in
its path
The people of Imperial, left to them
selves. would never seriously consider so
templated, but unfortunately they are
not left to themselves.
This is no question in which Imperial
alone is interested. The Los Angeles
brewers have decided to attempt the
debauchery of this valley. They have
singled out Imperial for the first attack.
The votes of all the vicious element in
the valley are being concentrated there
for that purpose. Later the same votes

be brought in line for booze-if the pro-
gram succeeds.
The issue is one in which the entire
valley has great interest. and the
valley must never make progress" of
the kind proposed in Imperial, back to
the reign of drunkenness and debauchery
out of which all the enlightenment of the
world is leading the people.

corpse, but the life, the self-respect, the
soul Of the school is dead.
And what is this so-called league?
1t is the Los Angeles brewers. 1t is
the men who have made small fortunes
by trampling law under foot 1t is the
men who have opened brothels and gam
bling houses in the town and have al
ready given the town the first degree
of degradation, which they would make
permanent by the sanctity of law. II
is the men who expect to sell the Ii
censed booze, who expect immunity for
the brothels and gambling dens which
will go with the transformation of the
town into new Mexicali hell,
The literature" of the league is as
fine specimen of irony as one could
find. 1t says:
We believe that well regulated sa
looms is the most effective method of
eliminating blind pigs"
That is funny, even aside from its
hutchery of the English language. 1t
is funny, for it is a notorious fact that
there are more blind pigs in license ter
ritory than in prohibition territory. The
reason for this is apparent. Under pro
hibitjon the temperance people have an
object in trying to wipe out tn Illegal
sale of liquor, but in license territory
the Temperance people are comparatively
Indifferent to the Illicit sale. and the
blind piggers are rarely molested.
The claim that the saloons will see
that the law is enforced is the richest
Joke of all. The fact is that the over
whelming majority of saloon keepers
.rample the law under foot, and they
dare not molest other law breakers for
fear of retaliation, and the blind pig
gers are the very ones to catch the sa-
loon keepers.
Why, in Imperial itself the very men
Vho are expecting to get licenses are
those who are most notorious for having
violated the law in the past.
When the licensed saloon enters I'm
perial there will be immunity for the
blind pigger as well as for the brothel
md the gambling den, the natural ad-
juncts of a saloon.
This league of progress" pledges its
membership to work TO the end that
Imperial shall become a model city" with
all the accessories of depravity.
But who are they who make this
pledge? Why are not their names made
known that the people can judge the
value of the pledge? Will Leroy Holt
and L. ]. Thomas, the bankers of the
city. sign such a pledge on behalf of
saloons?
VIII such merchants as George Varney,
the Stevenson Brothers. W. D. Conser,
Edgar Brothers, and others who consti-
tute the backbone of the towns COM
merce pledge peace and good order if
booze is endowed with legal standing?
Will Mr. Hockenberry or Mr.. Shibley.
principals of the schools, come forward
with such a pledge?
