Saloons a Losing Investment in Marshall
J. M. Huff argues saloons in Marshall yield poor returns. Assuming seven saloons earn $50 daily each, yearly gross nears $128, 000. City licenses bring $8,400. county and state total $6,600, yielding about $14,000. After expenses, brewers and distillers absorb much of the rest, leaving a small net for public gains.
