Alexander Replies to Maddox Over saloon and law clash
Hooper Alexander, champion of the Tippins bill, responds to ex Mayor Robert F. Maddox who said the measure would harm the state. Alexander questions what makes a saloon a saloon and labels two clubs as Maddox’s, notes law officers’ focus on illegal gambling while neglecting influential clubs, and accuses the state of revenue loss from franchise grants and a large stock watering over a power company. He defends Vigour law as sane and conservative and warns his own drastic bill may prove worthy after passage. He ends by inviting a further reply in a different vein.
