Away with such rot. It is somebody
else's business. It is everybody's
business, because everybody is interested.
My property and the property
of every other man iu Beaver Dam is
reduced in value by the presence of a
man or men who by their violation
of law bring reproach upon the fair
name of our town. Do Beaver Dam's
blind tigers add to the sales ofourdry
goods men? Does the spending of
money with these blind tigers thereby
make more money to be expended
with our groceries?Do the blind tigers
benefit our blacksmiths? Do they
bring mote trade to our liverymen?
Do they increase the business of our
Bank? Do they enable our millers to
sell more meal and flour? Do they
bring more students to our school?
Do they improve our society? Do they
bring larger congregations to our
public worship? Do they tend to establish
Christianity? Do they improve
the morals of our people? Then in
Heaven's name I ask, "what are they
good for?"
Dear reader, are you for or against
the blind tiger? If you are against it,
have you the grit to say so and stick
it? Are you willing to give the
weight of your name and influence to
stamp it out? The people of the town
and community can stop the sale of
whisky in Beaver Dam if they will
do it. OllSERVER.
