Dear Sir
Darlington has been dry town since the spring OF
1908 We then had four saloons paying altogether into the
village treasury $4,000 This was used for general
village expenses Its absence from the treasury made no
difference in our improvements in any way. We had no
dehct We seemed to get better without the money
than with it.
The village tax the year after saloons were voted
out was lighter than before 1t $500 per hundred as
against $85 under license. Our present tax rate is S. Sc
per hundred.
Since the saloon there has been large in
crease IN trade almost thirty three and per cent
The deposits in the bank thirty cent larger than
under license The reputable business of Darlington
are more than satisfied with the results of license We
have good streets good walks, fine works. electric
light for streets and homes, prosperous churches
cellent public school, quiet town, clubs
organizations, almost and occasion arrests
or law suits After six years experience with noicense
the people we'll satisfied that question of license
will not come at all this spring
The citizens of Darlington do believe it is good
to pay the sa1oonkeeper $4,000 order to get
back $5oooo to nothing of the social evil disorder
it brings, and various forms arising
You depend keep the flag of Prohibition
