SOBRIETY PAYS IN KANSAS State Makes Answer to the Wholesale Liquor Dealers (Kansas City Star, March 17) Kansas, there it stands; first in wealth, first in health and first in education. That is the answer of Kansas to the statement issued recently by the National Wholesale Liquor Dealers' Association, that prohibition had brought the state below the average license state in morals, health and economic standards. Kansas has more wealth per capita; more young men and women in colleges and the university, in proportion 1o population; more children in the Sunday schools; a lower death rate; a lower percentage of illiteracy, fifty-three counties without a jail prisoner last year; forty-eight counties that did not send a prisoner to state prison; eighty-seven that did not have an insane patient last year. All of this credited to thirty years I of prohibition. Blasting Away at Kansas "The liquor interests of the coun-1 try are centering their attacks on j Kansas," declared Arthur Cappe., governor of the state, to a representative of The Weekly Star. "The country is being flooded with literature containing ridiculous and manufactured stories regarding the failure of prohibition in Kansas. With that monument to prohibition out of : the way, they feel they would have, removed their greatest obstacle. "Kansas people are stronger for | prohibition today than ever before.' nor is the reason for this approval far to seek. "As a result of prohibition the annual expenditure for liquor has been } reduced $21 per capita, the average j in the United States, to $1.25 in Kan-j sas. "Illiteracy among Kansas people j has been reduced to 2 per cent?the lowest in the United States. ,,wvUt T.r?...... 4-1 ' i a ui i\cllirt(ir> I'WllllllUA 111 LIIV state did not send a prisoner to the penitentiary, and eighty-seven Kan- I sas counties did not send a patient ! to an asylum last year. Criminal Cases Decreasing "More than a dozen counties have 1 not called a jury in ten years to try a criminal case. "Fifty-three counties were without prisoners in their county jail all last year; twenty-eight counties are without paupers in their almshouses. "The Kansas death rate is the low- , est in "the world?seven and one-half ! for each one thousand persons. "Kansas sends more students to its j colleges and university than any other state in the Union in proportion to population. Wealth Doubled in Ten Years "Kansas hank deposits have increased in ten years from 100 millioh to '200 million dollars. "The per capita wealth of Kansas is greater than any state in the Union?approximately $1,700 for every man, woman and child in the stat?-* "Instead of having one of the high est percentages of insanity, Kansahas about the lowest. Everv insai.e person in the state, practically, is in one of the state hospitals. Only forty-four insane in all the state were reported bv the counties last year as being outside the asylums. In uanv states the incurables are sent back to their home counties for care. Many states have more insane natients in the county asylums than in the state asylums. Kansas does not permit its insane to be returned to the counties. It keeps them in the hospitals where they can be cared for scientifically. Kansas Knows What's Happening "But, anyway, who but a wholesale liquor dealer would ever think to of fer as an argument that temperance induced insanity, or that intemperance made up for a greater degree of sanity?" W. Y. Morgan, lieutenant governor and editor of the Hutchinson News: "The onlv people who criticize prohibition in Kansas are those who live outside the state, know nothing about the subject and are interested in the sale or manufacture of liquor. In every way possible, by constitutional provision, bv statuatorv law. by resolution, be every political party and by the vote of the legislature representing the people of Kansas, the policy of prohibition is declared by the r sidents of our state beneficial, right and resulting in great good to the people and to the state. The men and women of Kansas certainly know what is happening around them better than the partisans of the liquor traffic which is not allowed to cross the state line of Kansas." Has Hotter Manners and Morals Chief Justice W. A. Johnston of the Kansas Supreme Court, while not willing to be interviewed on the subject, recently made this statement in conversation with a friend: "Kansas certainly has had better morals and better manners since we kicked the Wholesale Liquor Dealers' Association out of the state." Sends Children to Sunday School Justice John Marchall of tin upreme court: "The brewers mak tue strange complaint that Kansas i pot a church state. Church statistic are not available, but what will they s iy to this fact which is capable of exact figures: J. II. Engle, secretary of the Kansas State Sunday School A ociation, declares that Kansas has the largest Sunday school attendant-*- of any state in the Union, accordii to population. "Fifty-tW) per cent of the population of the state, in the last cet Ia> are native born Kansans. Of the prisoners sent to the state prison lust year less than 25 per cent were native born. The illiteracy of Kansas is 2.2 per cent, and it is on the <|e crease. 1 en years a>?o ?t was :: :i. "The greatest argument in fa m of prohibition is that Kansas has hail n for thirty years and still has it. This legislature now in session has parsed two measures that will make lav. violation more improbable than ever."

Don't forget to i Ten to One for Prohibition James A. Troutman, member of the Kansas State Senate: "In thirty years prohibition in Kansas has re. suited in a greater diffusion of general education and a smaller percentage of illiteracy and crime than any other organized community on tht globe. At the last election the Repulican, Democratic and Progressive candidates for governor stood on prohibition platforms and advocated prohibition without evasion or apology The candidate who represented the anti-prohibition sentiment polled only one-tenth of the combined vote giver the other three candidates?one vote in ten against prohibition." Decreases Prison Population Warden J. 1). Botkin of the state prison at Lansing: "We have a smaller number of prisoners in the state prison now than at any time in the last ten years. The prison population is steadily declining. On March 1, 11)15, we had 7t?K, and twenty-sis of this number are federal prisoners Forty per cent of this number were not residents of Kansas, but were 'floaters' who were captured foi crime within the state. "Eiirhtv ner cent of the miml.ei brought to the prison give liquor a> the cause of their downfall. Prohibition Decreases Taxes "Not a higher percentage of prisoners, I think, are sent to the Kansas prison for homicide, as charged b> the liquor dealers. The figures show that there is a constantly decreasing percentage, however, for that crimt in the state. In 1905-06 we received ninety-four for homicide; in 1906-8 we received sixty-six for the sanit crime; eightv-eight in 1909-10; fiftythree in 1911-12; forty-seven in 191U14." Associate .Justice John Dawson former attorney general of Kansas "That prohiition is best for thest cities is shown in the fact that thi Kansas cities that have received revenue whatever from vice have i lower tax rate than the cities whicV stuck to the license-fining system t< the last ditch. Conditions in I.eaven worth at the close of many years o: illicit revenues from fines is a mos striking example in support of this proposition. Leavenworth has no citj building of any kind. Its many year; of fines and saloon domination an just now being overcome. The citj of Leavenworth during the last threi or four years, deprived of its revenui from crime, has made its most re markable growth." [rem|S^RM EN.
