THE SEATTLE STAR BY STAR PUBLISHING co. 1907-1309 Seventh Ave. Every AFTERNOON EXCEPT SUNDAY. Ratered meme the Postotinoe at Heattia Washington. as second othvee e = mere ALL NIGHT SALOONS ane matter When former Mayor William Hickman Moore gave the Ofer that put an end to the “all night saloons” in the city of | Seattle he did that for which he will always be entitled to the Gratitude of every reputable man and woman in Seattle—and We include therein the reputable saloonkeeper The move was one of the very best things of an admin istration of municipal affairs that has never been excelled in the history of the city, It was the beginning of the end of the Wildness of the seaport town, It was that and other acts of | Mayor Moore that gave us the courage to turn our coat collars down, throw our shoulders back and look straight into the eye Of the visitor and tell him that nowhere in America was there @ cleaner town than Seattle And we had hoped that at least the saloon policy of Mayor Moore was to be left to us. It had not occurred to us that there would come from any source a suggestion of a change. But we have erred in our conclusions, Recause the city Would be enriched therefrom to the extent of $75,000 or $80,000 ® year it is suggested by a member of the city council that an Ofdinance be passed providing that saloons be permitted to remain open all night upon the payment of a supplementary license fee of $250. For $75,000 or $80,000 a year we are to go back to the days when the saloon dives of Seattle harbored criminals from all parts of the world. Instead of going further upward we are to go down a step. li there was one valid excuse for such a change we : ght be inclined to stop a moment and consider it. But there is and can be no excuse for the all night saloon. If we must have this $75,000 or $80,000 a year why not license the highwayman and the burglar, the pickpocket and the thief? There will be ripe picking for these criminal gentry dur img the exposition year, and we might, by sharing in their plunder, reap a greater harvest than that which would come t6 us from the all night saloon. If the all night saloon is harmful—and no one will deny that it is—all the money that comes into every moncy drawer fm every saloon in Seattle in an entire year shouldn't be suf- ficient to tempt us to allow the passage of such an ordinance as is suggested. | There can be no question about the infamy of such legislation. And no decent, self-respecting councilman would vote for such a measure.
