A Saloonless Flatten and How
By A. Hewitt.
There has been volumes written
and spoken about saloons, and also
of the beauties ot a saloonless na-
tion, on which we will
or write, but on the how.
The saloon like the most of the
other evils that exist, is only a
creature of circumstances, and prob I the sole object, it is not the end, bul
ably will exist as long as that condi. j the means to that end that is tui-
tion lusts that permits it, for as long j higher, the liberation of the soul
as social conditions permits a thing j Ttie conditions that cause men to en
just so long you tnay expect j gage in the liquor business is ethic-
ally wrong anil must be stopped or
civilization will perish, as Lincoln
said, "Governments cannot continue
long halt Iree and half slave, under
conditions ol extreme wealth anil
poverty, power and servitude, tin* is
wrong and should not continue,
secure to each laborer the wh
I product (and not lose hall of it
i profit) of liis labor an nearly as p.is
sible, is a worthy object of' anv l: ■■
I eminent. " To right this wron
discontinue this abuse and ni
"to secure to each laborer the wlio'e
product of his labor, " is your busi
"ess and my business the business of
every minister and follower of .Jesus
Christ. I'he laws, customs, eduea
lion, public opinion, morals and. all
human institutions, have their roots
111 the economic soil,
to be.
to be bothered with it.
In the Ilrst place we do not see, in
the remedies suggested, any tasting
material benefit, unless the national
government passes a law, prohibit
inn the manufacture, sale and lm
portation of intoxicants in the Unit.
ed States, and then you have legis.
lated out ol existence, something
that might be of some benefit, you
just tlial long you might juat as well
stop the use of strychnine or any
other poison, which is a benefit,
when rightly used; then why use this
method when prohibition does not
only in a measure prohibit, and then j
why make war on a few.'ot the minor!
evils when there are others far reat- !
er, and when there is a better reme. I
■'y that will not only correct this one
but others as well? In the the first j

I Produce taken at
the real cause ol all the j subscription-
crime, committed by the use ot in
toxicants. The remedy lies in de
stroyiug the conditions th.it create
the incentive to make and sell it,
which is production for protit. It is
necessary to eradicate the cause in
order to get rid of the effect. Out-
present society is to be transformed,
through a class conscious revolt of
the woikers, having tor its object the
capture of the machinery of social
control that the productive and dis
trib'itive forces of society may be
collectively organized in the intesest j
of all p-oducers. The liquor ques j
tlon is uti economic one, and must be I
dealt with as such. The sale ot in. |
toxicatiug minks only represent the 8"rrv "1:lt li(n- ^ (
survival of the fittest, as applied to
the social development, and must be
removed by the adoption and appli-
cation of the principles of collectiv- I 111 I' "
Ism, democracy and equality of op.
portunity, which will end the profit
system. Society operating under
these rules, will make it possible
then, that no man will be able to
exploit another, by prolit from beer
or any other commodity. The com
mon man will have a chance to bring
out those iuuate qualities in him.
Then and aot until then will lie
have a chance to bring out that
which God put in him. Nearly all
believe that man consists of more
than animal and we all know that the
world liao not, up to date given the
average man a chance to develop
anything more than the animal. The j
