East Liverpool Review.

There seems to be pretty general
satisfaction with the form in which
the liquor license proposition is to be
submitted to the people of Ohio by the
action of the constitutional convention.
AS indicated in a recent editorial, the
triumph of the more conservative ele'
ment in the convention in putting
through restricted license proposal
struck a happy medium between the
two extremes-the uncompromising
vets" and the unyielding "drys"-
which may find favor at the polls next
November and become a part of the
fundamental law of the state.
The question now before the people
of Ohio, is, or will be, as to whether
the saloons shall be regulated by Ii
cense instead of being subject to the
whims of succeeding legislatures and
the changeable moods of public
opinion.

License Plan
Mansfield Evening News.

Perhaps radicals on both sides Of
the liquor license proposition may not
be satisfied with this proposal 1t is
still to be passed upon by the people
and their attitude on this matter, as
well as upon others that may be in
Cluded in the work of the convention,
will determine the fate of the measure
as indeed the entire work of the con.
vention.
There are certain features of the
law that will commend themselves to
many people. That there should be
regulation there is no question
No practical regulation can be
secured either through local option or
by statewide prohibition. That has
been demonstrated so often, and is
still so evident wherever prohibition
s tried, that few, save the salary-get
ters of the Anti-Saloon league and
some ultra theorists will attempt to
deny that prohibition, save self-pro
hibition, is impracticable.
Under a license the liquor traffic
can be regulated. If county, a city
e township or a village desires to be
dry" it is still privileged to indulge
in that theory, as none of the pro
hibitive or regulatory legislation ex
listing is abandoned on account of the
proposed license Where the traffic is
licensed it is proposed to hold the
dealers strictly accountable, not only
through the state license law, but it
still remains with municipalities to
adopt regulations as to hours of clos
ing saloons and various other features
connected with the operation of them.

The only way to continue the saloon
is by high license system, so safe
guarded ny regulations for the benefit
of society, that the saloon man him.
self will not violate the regulations.
When violation means the violater
will lose his license and his business,
there is not going to be much viola,
ton. Instead there will be a whole
some respect for the laws and ordt
nances and the saloon will be better
conducted.
If, instead of fighting all the
time for the impossible, absolute pro.
hibition, the anti-saloon league and its
allies would lend a hand toward Sc.
suring high license and strict regula,
tion, then something worth while
would result
The thought has often occurred tc
many, that perhaps, those active in
the anti-saloon league do not want tc
see the question settled for fear OF
losing their good paying jobs.

GAINESVILLE Times Recorder.

AS between the saloon as it existed
prior to three years ago and the speak
easies as they exist to-day there is
little choice. 1t would be impossible
to point with pride to either. II
would be hard to imagine anything
less desirable than either in any com
munity. The promise held out to rs
at. this time is that the saloon win be
regulated and restricted and made tn
obey strict laws and ordinances en-
acted for it's control. 1t now appears
certain that license clause viii be
voted into the state constitution. That
would make it possible to limit the
number of saloons in any locality.

the saloonist and to put him out Of

In submitting a liquor license plank
to the people, which retains all the
prohibitory laws now in force, and pro
vides further undoubted restrictions in
the way of forfeiting license for a
second violation of the liquor law,
the Constitutional Convention will
strengthen and advance the cause OF
temperance in Ohio. 1t would separ'
ate the liquor selling business from
politics, close the saloons in the cities
on Sunday, and automatically put the
saloonkeeper out of business for good
in the state for second violation OF
the law. Judge Henry K. Smith, Ge-
auga's delegate in the Constitutional
Convention, voted to submit the IL
oense amendment, and all fair-minded
temperance people will thank him for
doing so.
