" The question of regulation or prohibition of the saloon is being continually brought before every city seeking the best in- terests of its citizens. In this connection an 132 THE BETTER CITY epoc-making decision has been recently handed down by Judge Samuel Artman of the Circuit Court of Indiana, in refusing to allow the granting of a saloon license. He held that the State cannot delegate to the saloon a legal existence under the guise of a license, in that a saloon leads to immorality, suffe...ring and loss of life. Is it any wonder that in the majority of American municipalities there is a strong sen- timent toward greater and still greater re- strictions upon the traffic, until its final ex- tinction has been secured? Many -convinced that it is a check upon the highest progress are ready to ask with Dr. Robert Burdette : "Can you name one good thing the saloon has done for humanity one good thing but one instance in which it has brought forth fruit unto righteousness one influence, sweet and healthful and pure and gracious and beau- tiful, which will linger lovingly in the mem- ory of men, when you have buried the rum power to make them say, 'God bless the sa- loon for the good it did?' Search through the history of this hateful thing and try to discover one page over which a mother can bow her grateful head and thank God for all the saloon did for her boy.
