In our smaller cities throughout the
country has been, for some time. n

During the wet and dry campaign

hibition this Is what the editor said:
I'VE fought prohibition on economic
grounds alone. We believed that in

tion Of upwards Of 100000, prohibi-
ton would be destructive; that 1t
would bring on economic disaster.
We believed that under the license
system We had the liquor traffic as
we'll controlled a. it could be; we
wanted to let 1t alone and We fought
as hard as we could fight. But in
spite of all we could do, prohibition
carried and went into effect January
1. Its moral effect has been tremen-
dous. Seattle had 260 saloons and
we had an average of $500 arrests
month for crimes and misdemeanors
growing out Of liquor drinking. In
January we had only 400 arrests and
60 OF these were made January l,
