toxicants. This we claim to have accomplished so far as our detectives have been able to discover, and they are con- stantly on watch. 1. There is now no gambling or policy shop connected with any saloon or place where liquors are sold. 2. No liquors are now being sold to minors, without a written order from parents, according to law. 3. Very little, if any, whiskey is sold without license. 4. Lewd women are not permitted to enter and remain in places where liquors are sold; no dance halls. 5. The midnight closing ordinance, passed by the County Commissioners at the instance of this association, is being strictly enforced, and the result thereof is greatly beneficial to the public peace. 6. The Mascot Variety Theatre was permanently closed by the association after a stubborn fight. 7. Seven gambling houses for whites and four for ne- groes were permanently closed as a result of our campaign. 8. Several thousand dollars were collected in liquor deal- ers' licenses by the county and state as the result of the work of our detectives. 9. Complaints against saloon-keepers have been reduced to the minimum, and immediate relief is given when com- plaint is filed with Secretary Paget, No. 2114 Mechanic street, in this city. Respectfully submitted, WHEELER & CLOUGH, Attorneys for Texas Brewers' Association.
