"The sale of liquor should be limited. It cannot now be abolished. The saloon offers the working people the only kind of social relaxation they have. It is to them what dinner parties are to some other people. Besides, neither the saloons nor the theaters, with all their evil consequences, do so much harm as the deadening monotony of unrelieved toil."
