THE HOME RULE BILL.
The advocates of prohibition are
zealous in their attempt to defeat the
Home Rule bill. Why? Does not the
Home Rule bill extend to them oppor
tunity for continuing local option, the
only difference from the present sys
tem being in the size of the unit
whether it shall be county or city. .
There is positively no reason why
a city should not control all of Its
institutions Including the people .whof j
dispense liquor. One thing is certain
if the cities are given that right there
will be a Btrlct regulation for then re
sponsibility will rest where it belongs
upon a city administration and It
will be up to the local community to
clean Itself up and keep itself cleanly.
Opponents to this measure say this
will not be done. How do they know?
Are they not presuming a good deal
when they assume that a city council
will not look after this much better
and bring better results than a coun
ty unit
Here Is the essence of the whole
matter: Liquor .will be sold, either
legally or Illegally. That Is admitted
by all. Now, the next step is to regu
late matters so that some one la re
sponsible for the sale of liquor. Ad
opt a measure that will bring a bar
keeper to time when he sells liquor to
a boy, to a confirmed drunkard or
to anyone whose name has been list
ed with him. Make this so strong that
the first violation will cause a cancel
lation of license, and then you have
the liquor traffic regulated so that
some one is responsible for misdeeds.
As conditions are now there is posi
tively no responsibility.
