One Towns Prosperity Without
Saloon "Revenue'

Saloon Revenue"
Butler Mo-, has refuted the old argument that
"a dry town is dead town." by its history and de-
veopment since the adoption of the local option law
and the shutting up of its four saloons nearly eight
years ago.
December 70, 1907, the people of the town voted
out the saloons. Up to the beginning of that year
Butler had gone along like most county-seat towns
in Missouri toleratng the saloons in the belief that
they contributing to the payment of taxes and
the support of the city government However, that
spring few men, little holder and more far-seeing
than their neighbors, began quietly to agtate the
question of getting rid of the towns four saloons Of
course, they told it an impossibility, that
the town could get along without the revenue"
derived and that if the saloons voted out bust
would leave and go other towns with saloons.
Notwithstanding all the objections offered ma
jority of I62 returned against the saloons the
election December TO- 1907 and the last saloon went
out of business early in 1908
The Knockers" of course, were plentiful and at
got busy predicting the ruin of business "Grass
would grow in the streets and the trade coming here
from the south and would all go Rich Hill and
other towns" But it did not it is still coming to
Butler. The store rooms occupied by saloons
filled by other lines of business.
Butler is today richer and more prosperous
town than The merchants carry better stocks
the business houses neater cleaner and better;
the people live in attractive homes and enjoy
life in more rational and healthful ways There are
fewer idle people and the merchants have to carry
fewer bad debts.
Buffers bonded debt something like $4,000
on its electric light plant when the saloons voted
out and in spite of the derived it had been
hard to meet the interest payments while the liqu
dation of the principal seemed far off, Since the clos
ing of the saloons this debt has been paid, and many

rate is lower than ever before.

"Facts Versus Fallacies"

in Philadelphia have accepted certain articles at ad

Brewers Association The general topic Of these
articles is Facts Fallacies They appear twice

these papers is bonanza and pulls money from the

which surprises the public is that of the type

booze seems to be giving the lie to it's
defenders. From Thursday mornings
Lewiston Sun we clip the following:
Drunkenness in Lewiston seems to
be on the increase and especially dur
fact been particularly noticeable.
Whether draught beer has anything
to do with it is a question.
An Auburn man said to The Sun
Yesterday: II have always argued that
if we must have open rum shops that
it was better to have draught beer
where man could go in and buy a
glass and then go along about his
business. than to have it in bottles. as
when it is in bottles, man must buy
two drinks in order to get one. But
I am beginning to change my mind.
for it seems to me l have seen more
drunkenness in Lewiston since Tues
day morning than l had seen before
in two months l don't know whether
if is the draught beer or so much
rainy weather that is causing so many
to go wrong At one time during the
bon street, l counted seven persons
staggering along the street. l am no
temperance crank, but l like to see
things half decent. l must say the
present situation is disgusting and
nobody seems to know when or where
it will end l am told that conditions
are about as bad in Portland, as they
are here and at Old Orchard l am told
they are serving beer and ale with
meals at some of the restaurants"
During the day, nine arrests for in
toxication were made by the Lewiston
police, but later, three were released.
Considering the weather, the rum
shops are reported to be doing an ex-
cellent business.

Editorial Comment
Germany Cannot Win.

philadelphia Public Ledger)
In the eyes Of the United States and
Of all the neutral Powers, this war is,
more than ever, at the end of one year.
a mighty struggle which must affect
the future Of all mankind. 1t is q
contest between tyranny and freedom,
between the law or conquest and the
law Of national life. No greater issues
hung upon the conflict of Rome with
Carthage. of Christian Europe with
Muslem Asia. Germany has put forth
her strength and all but overpowered
her enemies. Yet it is still difficult
to believe that victory will come to her
in the end. 1t might not be far from
the ruth to say that German diplomacy
has undone in advance what German
military power might have accom-
plisned. 1t shared the defect of the
German people-the inability to grasp
any point of view but its own. 1t as
sumed that Belgium would offer no re-
sistance. that the English navy would
hold aloof, that the perfectly sound
strategy which contemplated crushinA
first France and then Russia could be
carried out. 1t exaggerated their weak
ness of other nations. their lack of
preparedness: it believed that England
was on the brink of revolution, that
France had lost her vitality, that Italy
would be Indifferent to the fate of both,
that Russia would remain an inert
mass, not to he conquered, perhaps,
but still not to be greatly feared 1t
relied too much on the energy of Aus
tria. on the dissensions among the
Balkan States on the ability of Tur-
key to make mischief in the East.
W orst of all. it failed to anticipate the
vast indignation which its cynical re-
pudiation of national morality by the
tearing up of treaties would arouse
among the neutral nations.
Truth is not forever on the scaffold,
ror wrong forever on the throne. The
great Hildebrand loved righteousness
and hated iniquity, and therefore he
died in exile. He and many another
learned that rewards and puniShments
are not always impartially admins
tered in this imperfect world. Yet in
the long run it is the moral forces that
rule. Were it not so we should still
be in the darkness of barbarism.
all the powers of destruction beat in
vain. What German triumph would
mean has been made absolutely clear.
United as the German people may be
in their determination to secure it. eff
ficient as their method of making war
has proved, the very terror they have
created is in itself a weapon against
them. The fate of Belgium is SYM
Dol and a prophecy 1t has brought
different nations and races together to
fight to the last desperate gasp. No
purely military analysis of the results
of this one year can solve the painful
riddle of the future. Germany has
struck her great blow with wonderful
results: but what of the counter
stroke? If the world is ruled by ideas,
the German idea will not dictate the
course of civilization. For it is based
en- an illusion and a fallacy; and in all

contained in their pretended reports
is shown by the report just issued by
