WOMAN WRITES IN FAVOR
OF LICENSED SALOON

Editor Capital Journal: Hearing
and reading so much in regard to this
coming election, it may seem strange,
as l am a temperance woman to write
this.
A very dear friend of mine was
born and raised in a prohibition state.
Hearing liquor discussed so much, he
determined, when old enough, to go in
to wet state to find out what they
were talking about, Well, he did. I
believe, if his home state had been wet
that young man might have lived an
honored man.
For eight years I lived in dry. town.
Oh, yes, it seemed fine--no saloons, no
place to tempt the young. Yes, we
women thought so.
It did not take many Of us long to
find we were living in flood,
wrecked, unhappy homes on all sides It
seemed like an epidemic of drunken
ness.
Salem is, as far as can be seen, a
clean, well conducted little city. Most
of its sins are open Once let this town
be dry and blind pigs will spring up
in a night, and, while the surface may
may look bright and clear, a good
place to live in, across the Willamette,
how about that Why clean up one
place, only to throw it somewhere else ?
My experience has taught me an open

trolled is better than things hushed

one act. You will surely find the bal
anee to be on the right side of the ledg-
er.
Many believe that saloon is a nee
essary and legitimate business, but
they want them strictly regulated.
No business is legitimate which does
or may do injury to others. The sa-
loon does, or may do irreparable in
jury to a great number of persons, and
through them to society at large.
Regulation does not, will not and
can not regulate. We have regulating
ordinances, and state laws, closing
laws, Sunday laws and state laws
against selling to minors and persons
intoxicated, etc. With our complacent
policemen, sheriffs, prosecuting attor
neys, judges and juries, the whole
batch has become a bowling farce. just
as long as saloons exist and money
greed is in the heart of man, liquor
can be had by any one in any quantity,
at any time, day or night. There is
only one way to regulate saloon and
that is to kill it.
An election for or against the sa-
loon is coming. Before voting go over
and take look at your public build
ings, paid for wholly, or in part, out of
license fees. Take a ride over your
paved streets, paid for in like manner,
remembering that the mortar in which
the bricks are laid was mixed with
tears Of mothers and sisters; that the
song of the trowel was the horrid
laugh of debauched daughters in the
brothel; that the hammer strokes were
the groans Of widows and forsaken
wives; that the paint is tinted with the
blood Of the worse than orphaned chill
dren, and as you ride remember the
streets are paved with lost souls, and
the rumblings under the wheels of your
car are the curses from the dunkards
