TIME TO THINK
When the prohibition question was
put up to the state of Washington it
was impossible to make the business
men of the stute, especially the liquor
dealers, themselves, believe that pro
hibition could possibly be put upon
Washington—that state never had
been “dry,” consequently it never
could be; the barkeep had been sell
ing booze all his life; consequently
you could not convince him that he
would ever be denied the right to sell
malt or spirituous beverages in the
state of Washington. For the senti
ment of the thing and for their re
luctance to say a word or do a public
act in opposition to the work of the
women and some of the ministers,
prohibition was not openly or by com
plete organization fought in Wash
ington. The breweries and the liquor
men increased their advertising in the;
local papers, more for prevention of
those papers openly assisting prohi
bition than for work against it. The
newspapers took little part in the
light, not caring to oppose generally!
the proposition and having no desire
to support it. The business men and ;
the liquor interests held a mammotn
“dosed” meeting in Seattle one night;
to consider the proposition confront
ing them, and it was the general
sense of the meeting that the thing
was a joke—that prohibition could
never carry in Washington, and that
there was no need of lighting the
theorists and visionaries who believed
they could make the state “dry.”
George Butler, formerly of Fairbanks,
stood up in the meeting and told those
men that, let any crazy man stump
the streets of Seattle with any crazy
idea that his crazed mind might
evolve, continue to agitate for his idea
and be all the time unopposed by
those vitally interested in seeing that
no craziness creep into the system of
things, and it is only a question or
time until that man and his idea have
a following, and that it is possible for
such following to, unopposer, reach a
strength which is sullicient to put that
crazy, idea to work there. And, the
liquor men and the business^paen of
Seattle laughed George to scorn. The
result was prohibition in Washington.
Washington, like Alaska, was never

intended to be “dry.” Their popula
tions and business interests as well
as their civic interests, are ugainat
prohibition. Yet, they ARE “dry” in
Washington, because the people did
not appreciate the danger and fight
for their own best interests. They are
sorry now, and the newspapers and
the ministers of the local churches are
lighting the conditions which exists
because they would not light the
danger when it threatened. Those
same business men in February, by
committee, waited upon George But
ler and asked him if he would not take
charge of the work of replacing
Washington in the “wet”' ranks, and
he told them that he could not be in
duced to do so, easily. Rev. Mat
thews, Seattle’s most popular mini
ster, from the pulpit scores prohibi
tion as it is working in Beattie, and
as a workable civic propisition. Car
dinal Gibbons and many other noted
divines also openly oppose prohibition
upon any and every occasion. The
business men of Seattle found out that
just what was told them would hap
pen, did happen, with the coming of
prohibition. They found out that the
reduced revenues must be made up,
and by themselves, and they are not
doing it. The city is heavily mort
gaged and is jumping sideways for
money to keep going on. Reduced
revenues mean reduced paying pow
er, in every town and always. It
could not be otherwise. Also, apathy
and the neglect to do protective work
in time spells ruin or less in any
camp.
We note that our two newspaper
contemporaries are not pleased with
our opposition to prohibition. Wo
are not surprised at that. They
haven’t much to think with, so do
little thinking; also, it is their chronic
disposition to knock any movement,
good or bad, which another newspap
er takes up and advocates. As a
newspaper proposition this fact af
fects us not in the least. If their esti
mate of this newspaper could afTeet
its conduct, there would be no hope
of the News-Miner ever becoming a
newspaper. But, as a civic proposi
| tion, affecting the welfare of this city
and threatening to reduce the city's
revenues by one-third or more—
j meaning that much less civic efficiency
and beauty and strength—we feel
constrained to warn the business men
of Fairbanks, whose patronage makes
those newspapers possible, that money
spent to strengthen a newspaper
which will by act or thought seek to
deprive Fairbanks of one-third or
more of its revenue is poor business
policy. There’s no use in saying that
their opposition cannot harm—it has
been proven that any crazy idea may
obtain a following.
Where is the $20,000 to $30,000 an
nual income from licenses coming
from for Fairbanks if Alaska is made
“dry?” It is a business proposition,
simply, and it is t?me for the business
men to demand that those who are
for prohibition “show them” clearly
how this shortage is to be made up,
before the business men can put in
with the prohiBitionists or encourage
in any way any newspaper in the
community which is working to re
duce the necessary revenues by that
amount. It is not a matter of senti
ment; it is a matter of business. And,
the business man who depreciates the
possibility of such a reduction in rev
enues is not a really-good business
man—he only thinks he is. — I* air
