Is he moro likely to take his first drink In n saloon, or will he go to the Ho la c. thousand times more likely . Ho la. a thousand times fore likely to take- his first drink in the back room of tho Prohibition drug store tho "respectable blind pig" than to seek the open saloon This is, obvious to any mun who has taken the trouble to personally fol low tho devious trail of practical Pro hlbltlon in theoretically Prohibition States Wo also find It confirmed by the re port on tho liquor problem endorsed by such men as President Kllott and Seth Low. This report, referring to tho failure of Prohibition in Iowa, says: "Rut it soon appeared that the drug storo was even harder tq regu late than the saloon, and that men would drink at the drug storo who would not, under a license system, hao drunk at a public bar." That boy Is far sufer In a commun ity that regulates its liquor traffic by laws that arc effcctlvo and responsive to public sentiment, than ho is In the city, State or Torrltory, where Prohi bition leads to tho conditions created in Iowa, of which the same report says: "The sanctity of private llfo waB violated. WltncsBop perjurod them selves upon tho stand, Juries refused to render a verdict of guilty, cton where the testimony was ample and uncontradicted. If the case was tak en before the Grand Jury, It was often Impossible to secure an Indictment. "While the statutes were constantly augmenting In Bovorlty, the .public opinion, which alone could give them validity wus crystallizing In opposl tlon to the enforcement. The popular respect for law rapidly declined be foro the spectacle of the Impotence of tho government to compel obcdlonce to It." JUST SUPP0S1N'.
