Danvine Liquor
Interests Keep
Up Organization
Will Begin Fight at Once for Re-
opening of Saloons Two Years
Hence

According to The Champion oi
Fair Play, Danville liquor interests
have already begun stealthy cam
paign aiming at the return of the sa-
looms at the earliest possible moment
THAT the boys at Danville-and
there never was better, cleaner,
truer lot-have not completely lost
heart says The Champion, SIS shown
by the fact that out of the 73 members
ol have pledged themselves to main
tain the organization, pay in their
regular dues and wait and sec what
two years will bring forth
This action of the Danville liquor
organization is an example of what
the liquor dealers in dry towns in
variably do and should be warning
to the dry leaders not to give up their
organization after the town votes dry.
Bloomington, and several other cities
formerly dry, returned to the wet col
umns for no other reason than be-
cause the vets caught the drys nap
ping. Indifference has lost more cleo
tions for the drys of Illinois than any
other single thing.

TO MR.. WINDLE

We would commend to Mr.. VIM
die, leading writer and speaker for the
liquor interests of Illinois, the fol-
lowing paragraph from Coles Re-
view:
No man has ever advocated the
saloon who has been able to do so
and tell the whole truth. Not fact
in all history will stand up for the
business and every speaker and writer
of publicity knows it. He may take
the whisky or beer mans money for
service and attempt to earn it, but day
by day, as he digs into statistics and
finds the truth staring him in the face.
his conscience accuses him because
he distorts and abuses it.
As Mr.. Cole, editor of the Review,
was once publicity director of the
National Brewers Association. and
therefore co-laborer of Mr.. Windle,
his words should have great weight
with the editor of the Iconoclast.

Springfield Adopts
Bo1,e-Dry Ordinance

Springfield is now bone-dry so far
as the city authorities can make it so.
The commissioners recently adopted
an ordinance which it is claimed will
make it harder to secure liquor in
Springfield than in any.othcr city in
the United States. 1t not only for
bids the sale OF liquor in public drink
ing resorts, but. hits especially at
club rooms and other similar places.
Il also provides that any place
where liquors are sold in any form
shall be termed nuisance and the
property owner held liable to a fine
of not less than $50 and not more
than 5000. In short, the ordinance
applies to everyone. No one is an
exempt.
"Thc people voted the city dry"
said Commissioner Spaulding, father
of the ordinance, "and am in favor
OF making it as dry as possible"

BULLY FOR YOU, MIR.
MAYOR OF QUINCY
You Said the Right Thing to
Those Saloon Fellows

The Executive Committee of
the Quincy Liquor Dealers Asso-
citation held their customary con-
ference with the new Mayor of
that city a short time ago and
demanded to know "just what he
intended doing in the way of en-
forcing the law in regard to the
business of the retail liquor dealer
whether it was to be continued
as at present, half open, half
closed (The words quoted are
from liquor organ.)
Mr.. Thompson, the new Mayor,
did not mince matters in his reply.
II have been elected on a plat
form of law enforcement" he
said. THE law says that saloons
must be closed between midnight
and S o'clock in the morning on
week days and from midnight of
Saturday until S o'clock Monday
morning. During my administra-
tion there will be no saloons open
after IL o'clock midnight of week
days and there will be no open
saloons on Sunday"
Bully for you Mr.. Thompson,
you are made of the right metal!

BOOZE PATRIOTISM
Illinois House Approves War
Health Measure-With a
Condition

An example of booze patriot
ism. 100 per cent pure, an Incl
dent that happened a few days
ago in the Illinois House of Rep
resentatives, ranks easily first.
When the administrations code
bill. providing that anything tend
ing to impair the health of SOL
diers shall be barred in zone
having a radius of one-half mile
from a military camp, was intro
duced a short time ago in the
House, Immediately a number of
vets jumped to their feet and de-
manded to know If the measure
would prohibit the sale of liquor
to soldiers. On being assured
that it would not, they withdrew
their opposition and the bill was
passed without a single dissent
ing vote.
While every warning govern
ment on earth is restricting the
sale of liquor. in the interests of
the health and efficiency of its SOL
diers, the vets in Illinois Legis-
lature with blind obstinacy still
oppose such measure.
They are patriotic just as long
as patriotism docs not interfere
with their profits.

Grand Jury Puts
Lid Iilting Up to
Mayor thompson
Rept.rt That Mayor Has Power to
Z Hsk-l CT S Lilly Law AID Shcei5 :.
Do So

The Cook county April grand jury
in survey of the Sunday closing
question declared that enforcement ot
the Sunday law is primarily the duty
OF the Mayor of Chicago who can, il
he wants to, prevent lid fitting by the
use of his power OF revolling licenses.
Added to their report was list OF
354 saloonkeepers who violated the
law and whose cases were investi-
gated by the grand jury. They rec
onmended that the cases be sent
back to the Mayor for action.
Said to Have Been Inspired by Hoyne
1t is said that the grand jury took
up the Sunday closing question at the
request of States Attorney Hoyne.
Their report shows that they have
taken Mr.. Hoyne's view in the three
cornered fight between the States
Attorneys Office, the city hall and
the courts.
They do not believe" says the
grand jury report, chat the prose-
cutting officer of Cook county, or his
assistants, should conduct prosecu-
tions for violations of the Sunday
closing law, when convictions, if any,
would result only in fines, even
though the Mayor should pledge him
The American issue. [volume] (Westerville, Ohio) 1912-19??, 1917-05-11

SELF to revoke, and should revoke, Ii
censes OF offenders if convicted
With the thousands of policemen
at his command, the Mayor is in a
position to learn the facts accurately
and speedily when a complaint is
made
Opposed to Judge Newcomers Deci-
sion
This recommendation OF the grand
jury is opposed TO the decision OF
Judge Newcomer reported last week
in which the court ruled that cases OF
violators of the Sunday law should
be tried in the courts, and in which
he held that "if they were properly
prosecuted convictions would result
as in other cases"
The Issue has contcnded that both
the Mayor and the States Attorney
arc in duty bound to prosecute yio-
lators OF the state Sunday closing
law. The Mayor should use his
power OF revoking licenses and the
States Attorney should prosecute vio-
lators OF the Sunday law Just as he
violators OF any other
state law. He has no power or right
TO discriminate.
