The Cost of the Liquor Traffic

The liquor traffic costs more each year than our whole civil service, our army, navy, and Congress, the river, harbor, and pension bills, all we pay for local government, all national, state, and county debts, and all the schools in the country. In fact, this government pays more for liquor than for every function of every kind of government.—New York Tribune.
