Much-, aa I dislike to - tresspass
upon the time of the Senate, Ii
should be recreant to the noblest

J The other' day, while parti ci pat
ing in a discussion on the subject
of usury, the Senator from Mont
gomery, said with great force, that
that question was of the greatest
importance, that it hty at the bot
tom of all our diffitiultiea While I
fully recognire - tbe force 1 of ' his
rernaiks, I thought - there was a
greater evil in our midst and I am
inclined to the opinion with all due
respect to the honoroble Senator,
that if he had studied it with as
deep and ! persistent interest as he
has done the neurylaws, his honest
heart and candid mind would agree
with 'me; I "refer, to the "drink
traffic! This surely ia apparent
from the fact that there have prob
ably been five times as many bills
presented to the General Assembly
to restrict and regulate this traffic,
than have been presented on any
Other special question, i . j .
- I tAke it for granted that every
gentleman on this floor is here with
an earnest desire to do all in bis
power, ' by proper legislation, !- to
restrict", as much as possible,' the
evils resulting to society from this
traffic, that he will bring to bear an
impartial and unprejudiced mind
in the investigation of tbe question,
so that every one may be willing to
adopt whatever course seems most
likely to conduce to the., end we
seek, even if that course may be
opposed to his own preconceived
opinions. A ' t- nav '" J.t s
Tne question - before the Senate
is : . "ftnan tne local option provis
ion of the present law be sustained,
or shall it be' superseded by the old
system of license, placing the pow
er exclusively in the hands of the
County Commissioners to grant or
to refuse licenseT". , ,
Tho' object of all legislation on
this subject should be, to restrain
as far as possible, the evils falling
upon society by this traffic. If
this be our intention, then, in order
to arrive at safe conclusions, - we
should turn to the lamp of experi
ence and try to ascertain from it,
whether history and facts are in
favor of local option, or a so called
license law, to BOO which has tend
ed most to restrain the traffic and
protect society? - ' rl r
In 1859 the Geneial Assembly
passed what has latterly been called
by supporters of the traffic, 'a uiu-
dicious, well regulated license law." i
That law provided, that it ahonld
be ' unlawful to . sell intoxicants
without a license. 1 That' in order
fr" procure a 'license tho applicant
should advertise his intention in
a news aper in the county 20 days
before the Commissioners' Court,
so that persons might have an op
portunity to appear and show cause
why he should not have a license
granted him. I! That after such
notice had been given and the time
expired, he should come before tbe
County. Commissioners And prove
to their "satisf Action," that he was
"a man of good character and fit to
be trusted with a license'". After
proving that he was such an hon
orable and trustworthy personage,
and giving a bond payable to the J
State of Indiana, with at least two
freehold sureties l in the ' sum of
$500, conditioned that he would
keen an orderly and peaceable
house, he should be entitled to a t
license on the further condition
that he, should pay a fee of. $50,
which license fee was to be placed 4
in the school fund and thus form a
! . " sort orylauo'AStMr;''. ;
to compensate for the known evils
which wouIq result to society frcm
the traffic. What a burlesque, nay,
what , a " disgrace to onr boasted
civilization, " that 'our ; children's
education 'should thus be i made
dependent upon, the . license of a
traffic which tends more to the
ignorance, pauperism and rime of
the people than amy other cause!
This judicious, i well regnfated 'li
cense law provides further, that
the person so .licensed should be
de bared from selling to minors, or
on Sundsy, ox on election days, or
to a person in a state of intoxication.
In fact, this law of 1859 was prob
ably as : stringent a - raw as - any
license bill now pending before this
General Assembly. It is, therefore,
fair to presume, that it ' operated
just as well in regulating tbe traffic
in drink as would any license law
now sought to be passed. " ' a
' Now let us see what" was the re
suits of that law upon the public
weaL Did it restrain the traffic?
Did it lessen or fearfully tend to
increase the public evils necessa
rily attendant upon that suicidal
business? I invite tbe Senators on
this floor to refer . to " the United
States census, reports for 1860 and
1870, touching this State of Indiana,
covering , a ; period of ten years,
during which : time this judicious,
well regulated license law was in
fuU-operation What does that
census reveal? 1 Why it records the
astounding fact that while the pop
ulation, of - the JState increased 24
per cent, during these ten years,
the naanufactnrs of intoxicants in
oreased ' 305 ier cent-, more than
twelve times faster " than the popu
lation!'; This is regulating and re
stricting the ' traffic with a venge
ance! This is protecting the inter
est of the people! ; No wonder thai
every saloon keeper ia tbe State is
clamorous for a ""jttdicious, ".well
regulated license law a law tnat
will ; protect the dear people.and
add a. large revenue to the school
fond. -...?-v tuts g
As a legitimate result of this t-tu-pendous
increase in the ;. traffic pin
drink, we find by- a-f urthcr reference
to the United. tStetes centos report,
that during these same ten years in-
snity increased 43 per cent., idiocy
50, paaperism 130, and petvoas aefn
' a.lfy in rion 22U per cent. So that
aide by side with tne product of in
toxication increasing 12 times faster
than the increase of population, in
sanity and idiocy, increasedtwice a
last; paugensm ueanr mi times anu
crime nine times as fast. ;-1 ask the
'Sen itors how long under a judiciou.
- wUT-THiated license law this rate
will it take to make the State one
grand halacarst of pauiieriBairime
and insanity ? I defer to gentlemen
"who "are adept in arithmetic 1o calcu
late. That pauperism and crime obtain
just in proportion to the increase of
drinking saloons, there is surely no
gentleman on this floor will undertake
. . . . . . . i -
to aeuy. in me za counties ot mis
State containing the largest numWr of
" license'! saloons, the number of voters
is 92.790. There is one saloon to ev
ery 77 voters, and one convict to every
1W voters. The criminal and pauper
expenses are $3 72 per voter.' In the
' 23 counties where there are no licensed
saloons, with 54,53y voters, the pau
per and criminal expenses are tl 82
' per voter, not one-half the amount of
- the 23 counties with most saloons.
fThus establishing the fact beyopd all
?eirvil or controversy, that just in, ro
'IKrtioitto' the increase o? Saloons, is
the increase in pauperism and crime.
f?o much for the influence upon the
drink traffic and society of a judicious,
well-regnlated Rcense IawNa lqw to '
PROTECT THE DEAK PEOPLE , i
and increase the school fundi .
". Turn we now to ascertain.: what ef
fect the local option feature of the
' Dresent law has had upon the drink
traffic, and its results upon society.
,Uur present local option law was sp-
roved tn the 27 th ot'Pebruary, 1S73.
f a v ,o l A r.li
iu L'eceiuuer, ici, uutier me iuu
sway; of the judicious licence law,
! there was in the State 2tl,809 polls,
2,094 licensed saloons and. 345 con
victed criminals in that year. In De
cember, 1873, when the Wal option
Jaw had been barely iu operation ten
; months, during which time, aa Gov.
Hendricks says, ."It encountered de-
' teruiined hostility on the part of those
engaged in the liquor', business," and
when many of the officers of the law
virtually stood in the way of its exe-
, cution, we 2nd that although the polls
.of the State had run up to 2Ca?74,
being nearly 4,000 more than in 1872,
the number of saloons had fallen to j
1,4S7. nearly one-third less; the sum.
, ber of convicts committed had fallen
to 250, more than twenty-five per cent, j
kss, aud the number of counties with-
out saloons had run up to 23. two and
a half times as many us in 1872, under
the license law. , j .t , g.-,.
' But this is not all; druukenness had
.very largely decreased According to
reportsmade by truthful and reliable
T persons residing . in the . . respective
. counties reported, it appears that up to
January 1874, in 11 months, out of
'43 counties heard from, only one,- re
. ported it doubtful as to the decrease
in drunkenness, while the rest report
ed a decrease as follows: One, 100
per cent.; onef 80; twor 75; one, 66;
fourteen, 50; eight, 35. and the .bal
ance range from 1 to 28 pur cent., and
"slight" to "considerable.? t
: Thus it will be teen by these statis
tics, that from 1860 to 1870, under a
judicious,, well-regulated license law,
. the manufacture . of intoxicants in
creased twelve times faster than the
population; and, as a legitimate result,
1 insanity and idiocy iucrcbd. double
the ratio of , population, i pauperism
nearly six times, aqd crime nine times
as fast ! whereas, on the other hand,
in less than & year after the passage of
the local option law, and that, .too,
with an increase of nearly 4,000 polls,
'saloons decreased one-third, drunken
ness 33 per cent,, and convicts com
mitted decreased more than, 25 per
cent. I ask the Senators to ponder
oyer these facts, and give them due
consideration, before . they seek to
supplant local option with a license
law. And yet, in the face ot these
facts, we . hear the cry, that local
, option' is a failure.. "A fail ure' Yes;
it has failed to disappoint the iriends
of humanity! It has failed to, please
aioon keepers, brewers ana . aistn
, !er? 1 11 tma 1w has utterly Jailed
that thore who traffic in alcoholics are
eo bitterly opposed to it? . That, they
are opposed to it we know from the
declaration of Governor , Hendricks,
tor he says. It has encountered de-
lerminec Hostility on tne nan oi mose
eniraeed in the liquor business." This
V, is the strongest proof of its efficiency-
would the saloon keeper be so fear
fully anxious , to repeal "a failure?
, V ith "these facts . before.; us facts
. which no sophistry or locic can sain
' say can we, who profess to be here to
legislate, not in the interets ol a certain
class of men, but for the well-being of
. the people at large can we vote to re
peal a law which has worked so bene
. ficiently, and in its stead enact a law
which sad experience f roves, r to , be
fearfully opposed to the nubile cood ?
.The cry comes up from all parU' of
tne State tnat tne i a I

ot a patient and magnanimeus people.
Seeing then that this local option law
has tended so much te restrain the
ruinous traffic in drink, and to brjrely
decrease.drunkenness and its evils,
t why seek to repeal it? ; Why not sus
tain it strengthen and make it more
effective by restoring the ninth sec
tion, increasing the penalty for selling
without a permit, sad, it the people
demand a license fee, I care aot bow

best adapted to promote their satety J
and happiness, : Why not apply this ;
principle of popular sovereignty to
the people,, instead of the County
Commissioners er Auditor in grantanr
licem-e to sell that which is so inimical
to the public go ;d? Who U so eom
Ietent to pass on this' question as
those wbo are most immediately af
fected by the sale or non-sa!e of
lkiaor .-'-' .
. If the sale of intoxicants will pro
mote the welfare, effect the happiness
and decrease the burdens of any com
munity, will not they know it as well
as any one el?e in the county or State?
If, on the other hand, sucntraf5o is
injurious to their interests, interferes
with security to their lives, liberty or
happiness, which thry have the ina
lienable right to demand, who shall
dare to say those iH?rsons shall not
express their condemnation of the
traffic, and refuse to Eigo petitions
thereafter? Butt it may n be asked,
why apply this principle to the sale of
intoxicating liquors, alone? ; Why pot
apply Jthe same rule ' ;t ' v, , ' j
.TO OXIIEK KINDS OF HCSIXESS?, v
I answer, because all the ordinary
business of life is sustained , aud con
ducted under tho provisions of com
mon law. In our citato any one ! can
follow whatever pursuit be pleases,
provided he does not interfere with
the rights ot others. Jiut ihe very
moment he does that the common law
steps in to restrain and debar him.
At no time in tne History ot the tin
ted Spates has liquor selling at retail
lieen treated as a common law t rathe.
It has always been the creature of
statutory law, because the experience
has shown that the traffic ia alcoholics
aa a beverage is a curse to the drunk
ard, a curse to the State,; and conse
quently no State can aflord to give
this business tho freedom which ; is
granted to other trades. , !
; And what; I ask, can be more ; in
acoordauce with the genius of are
publican form of government, than to
allow the. people to determine for
themselves directly whether the traf
6o in intoxicants shall or shall not be
licensed in their midst? This is car
rying out the great principle so ably
advocated by the gallant and eloquent
Douglass, that of "popular sovereign
ty." Local option virtually declares
that if the people want licensed sa
loons in their midst they may so elect.
If, however, they do not want them
they may so ordain. How a fairer
system than this can be devised passes
my comprehension. - la it possible, to
construct a. general system ot license
tha t will adapt itself to popular feel ing
half eo well? Certainly not! A gen
eral system of license must in hun
dreds of case- overbear the popular
will, and thereby- become oppressive
and unjust. Wherever it does, that
locality is governed not by its own
votes, but by those of other counties
and townships which have no right to
meddle with it. . Aa act of the legisla
ture is passed by fifty-one votes iu tha
House and twenty-six iu the Semite.
.Now, if the requisite number of rep
resentatives and senators decide (bat
liquor selling .hall be licent-td for
SluO or 500, a year, that decision
makes it legal in townships aud coun
ties that don't want it. just as fully as
those wbo do. -. Hence ny man wbo
chooses to pay the license fee can sell
anywhere in spite of the people, even
if he be the only man in the township
that favors the traffic, A majority of
fifty to one is just as powerless to pro
tect itself from what it ctttems a great
evil, as a majority of one in filly or
500. So the popular will is forced to
yield to a general, unbondiug, unac
commodating law.' Surely nothing can
be further removed from pure demo
cratic iirinciples. of .government-,, than
this. What a tempest of opposition
would there be all through thisSt ite
if the legislature were to pat a law
empowering the county commission
ers to appoint even a road inspectsr,
without hrst having the consent ef a
majority of the voters in the road dis
trict. And yet of how much more im
portance is it to the well being of so
ciety that the people should, have Ihe
right to dec-id by a majority in refer
ence to the granting of license in their
neighborhood? Again, a licence ays -teat;
being established by law may be
the work of a bare majority, of the
two Houses fifty-ine members of the
lower. twenty-ix io the upper House.
These are isrnubed-by forty-one out
of uinely two counties.,) A majority of
one i. elected by minority ot tea of
the counties, A majority of - the other
by a miuority ot'euly f the coun
ties.fTbis is theeteet of the differ
ence in population. Marion county in
connection with Morgan elects three
Senators, and in ronnecion with Shel
by elects five Representatives, making
her equal in legislative power to Ben
ton .Newton. Jasper, White, Mar
shall. Fulton. Pulaski. Kosciusko and
Whitley in the Senate, and equal in
the House to Jasper. -White. Craw
ford. Orange. 'Martin. Dubois, Brown.
Bartholomew, : Fulton, Pulaski end
Starke. Jrhe equals nine counties in
the Senate and eleven i the House.
Hence her legislative power mar easily
decide the whole, question of license
in both - houses. ' Her vote is big
enough to rum a isrge minority into a
matyand thus fsree no less than
eioveo iether eonuties- tot have liqaor
aotd in tAem,woetAr tm peoyee want

Is it republican? en On the Other hand,
if Marion county opposed t liceese
she may defeat it for the whole State,
and 'force localities that wrt liquor
to go-without it.?Is 4bts righf?"ls it
democratfe? i Under-the local option
principle no large township like Cen

One of the primary f riuciples of the
common law is, that every man must
t bo held responsible for the results of
-his own acts. If, by any act of his,
injury comes to another he is respon
sible for that injury and must make
reparation, ttulesa he can satisfy the
. judge or jury that be wad not tosblame
for - his coaduet. Sometime it may
,- happen that this rule works hardships,
, but the rule exists for the benefit. and
protection of aggregated society, and
the good sense ef mankind declares
the principle is founded in juticei
Through the multifarious avocations
, and pursuits of life, we may, relyimt
on our boasted ability and mental de-
- velopment, deny our responsibtlity to
God and reckles--ly violate the laws of
nature, but we can aot, escape iron
the operation of this great law; com-
; manded by all intelligent persons
- that we are and mut be held accouat
eble to our fellows for any injury they
may receive through our misconduct,
negligence, or wilful j wrong doing,
Now, let us apply this grr-at funda
mental . principle to this : traffic
in drink, which is outside the pale of
common law, and only the fickle crea
ture of Statutory enactment.
If, by the common law, a man is
held responsible for his acts, should
we, when by statute we authorise a
business to be pursued, relieve him
from ' the responsibility , necessarily
growing out of that business, should I
we renounce this salutory provision
from a traffic that we ean not, and
, never hate trusted nrule.r th onmiuiiii
law? Nav. rather, as this traffin is f
universally regarded as against the
beat interests of society, should not
more rigid, instead of easier rules be
applied to its conduct so as te form a
cheek upon,' tha reckless evils - which
are continually flaming from this de
structive traffic. .When a man deter
mines te sell intoxicant be certainly
can not plead that he does not know'
what the results are likely to.be. He
' can not Teach the age of maturity and
: remain ignorant of the effects of the
use of liquor. From the time , when
he dreaded the drunkard to boyhood
' when be played the degraded sot-his
own experience demonstrated , the
dreadful consequences of the use of
liquor. Prompted by the spirit of
t avarice he engaged in the disgraced
tand degrading traffic solely -1 make
money for that is his only, object
and perfectly conscious that he will
make money at the expense ot the in
dustry, prosperity and happiness of
.others, to whom, ia retuin for these
.blessings, he furnishes the serpent
that ultimately stings to death those
who take it to their embrace. And
shall this man who thus deliberately
' plans and labors to injure.' and niay-
hapj destroy bis fellow, net be held
responsible by law for any injury he
may cause ? Most certainly he should
.-be held responsible as much as the
man who deliberately sets fire to his
neighbor's barn, for be is a wrong
- doer from the very moment be decides
to engage in this traffic, a violator of
the law of God which has .declared,
"Woe unto him whs putteth the cup
to his neighbor's lips, ' an outlaw from
the universal ruks. that find their
.legislation in the eemmon sense' t-f
: mankind; shly justifying his choice of
business by the plea, which may with
equal for oe be ased by tbe urger or
the burglar ia the land, i' he does it
for the moeey there is ta it," and will
you say this man must not be. held re
sponsible for the evils resulting to
persons and society from his business?
Monstrous inf'atuativn, indeed. . We
hold an apothecary responsible for the
mischief his mUeoaduct causes.; We
allow a doctor to be held in jdamages
for malpractice. We make a .lawyer
sutler for abuse of his duties te bis
'client. If a butcher sells bad meat
-we make him pay for it. - If a huck
ster sells decayed vert-tables we make
ihim settle for it.: If a farmer's ox
-gores, he is held responsible.' Why
not, then, put the liquor seller in the
same boat? Is he better than other
tradesmen,' that he shall be exempt
from the consequences of his misoon
d net, when nil others .are held to a
strict accountability ? si ;
