Speakeasies were places where drugs were sold illegally, they were where all alcohol was drank when it was illegal. They were called 'speakeasies' because if the police heard them say 'drugs', they would shut the illegal drug place. So they told people to speak 'easy' about them, meaning 'quietly'.
