Mk 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 to 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 of prohibition. * Blasting Away at Kansas *' "The liquor interests of the country are centering their attacks on Kansas," declared Arthur Capp*-., 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 in the United States, to $1.25 in Kanr sas. "Illiteracy among Kansas people has been reduced to 2 per cent?th< j lowest in the United States. "Forty-eight Kansas counties in the'' state did not send a prisoner to the penitentiary, and eighty-seven Kansas counties did not send a patient to an asylum last year. Criminal Cases Decreasing "More than a dozen counties hav? j not called a jury in ten years to tr> \ 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 lowest in the world?seven and one-half for each one thousand persons. "Kansas sends more students to its colleges and university than any other state in the Union in proportion to population. Wealth Doubled in Ten Years "Kansas bank deposits have increased in ten years from 100 million to 200 million dollars. "The per capita wealth of Kansas is greater than any state in the Un- L ion?approximately $1,700 for every . man, woman and child in the st9te. "Instead of having one of the higjfcj est percentages of insanity, KaryyQjf^ has about the lowest. Everv "TnsaiWF^ person in the state, practically, is in i" one of the state hospitals. Only s forty-four insane in all the state were e reported by the counties last year as a being outside the asylums. In manv ? states the incurables are sent back B to their home counties for care. Many u states have more insane patients in ? the county asylums than in the state asylums. Kansas does not permit its Jj insane to be returned to the counties. It keeps them in the hospitals where a they can he cared for scientifically. 0 Kansas Knows What's Happening r "Rut, anyway, who but a wholesale 11 liquor dealer would ever think to offer as an argument that temperance induced insanity, or that intemper- p ance made up for a greater degree e of sanity?" p W. Y. Morgan, lieutenant governor 1: and editor of the Hutchinson News: t . "The only people who criticize pro- 1 hibition in Kansas are those who live o outside the state, know nothing about f the subject and are interested in the n - sale or manufacture of liquor. In '1 every way possible, by constitutional c provision, by statuatory law. by resolution, be every political party and by b the vote of the legislature represent- t ing the people of Kansas, the policy ' of prohibition is declared by the residents of our state beneficial, right { 't and resulting in great good to the ' people and to the state. The men and ? j women of Kansas certainly know ^ what is happening around them bet. tor than the partisans of the liquor ? traffic which is not allowed to cross r [ the state line of Kansas." Has Better Manners and Morals c j Chief Justice VV. A. Johnston of the ^ . Kansas Supreme Court, while not i I willing to he interviewed on the sub. ject, recently made this statement in f ? conversation with a friend: ? "Kansas certainly has had better c morals and better manners since we j t kicked the Wholesale Liquor Dealers' r t Association out of the state." j, t Sends Children to Sunday School s , Justice John Marchall of the su- t preme court: "The brewers make the v strange complaint that Kansas is not i y a church state. Church statistics are Is I not available, but what will they say j <> to this fact which is capable of exact f figures: J. H. Engle, secretary of the k Kansas State Sunday School Asso- i ciation, declares that Kansas has the t largest Sunday school attendance of 1 any state in the Union, according to ] population. 1 "Fifty-two per cent of the population of the state, in the last censu.-., are native horn Kansans. Of the prisoners sent to the state prison last year less than 2:"> per cent were' naf tive horn. The illiteracy of Kansas is 2.2 per cent, and it is on the dee crease. Ten years ago it was 2.9. "The greatest argument in favor of prohibition is that Kansas has had lr for thirty years and still has it. This * legislature r.ow in session has passed * two measures that will make law vioC lation more improbable than ever." 1 Get Ou Why ] / The United States I MERS of UNION COW A tax of 2 mills, 01* 20 cei taxable property will sa every dollar the farmer save $15.00 in hauling c the TOWNS and CORI SOUTH CAROLINA is LIN A is spending ONE ish.

Don't forget to vo Ten to One for Prohibition .James A. Troutman, member of the ftmsas State Senate: "In thirty bars prohibition in Kansas has reulted in a greater diffusion of genial education and a smaller percentge of illiteracy and crime than any thor organized community on the ;lobe. At the last election the Replican, Democratic and Progressive andidates for governor stood on proibition platforms and advocated pro libition without evasion or apology, 'he candidate who represented the .nti-prohibition sentiment polled only ne-tenth of the combined vote given he ether three candidates?one vote n ten against prohibition." Decreases Prison Population Warden J. I). Botkin of the state trison at Lansing: "We have a smallr number of prisoners in the state irison now than at any time in the ast ten years. The prison populaion is steadily declining. On March , 1015, we had 758, and twenty-six f this number are federal prisoners. 'Wty per cent of this number were lot residents of Kansas, but were floaters' who were captured for rime within the state. "Eighty per cent of the number rought to the prison give liquor as ho cause of their downfall. Prohibition Decreases Taxes "N'ot a higher percentage of prisners, I think, are sent to the Kansas uison for homicide, as charged by he liquor dealers. The figures show hat there is a constantly decreasing icrcentage, however, for that crime ri the state. In 1905-05 we received linety-four for homicide; in 1905-8 fe received sixty-six for the same rime; eightv-eight in 1909-10; fiftyhive in 1911-12; forty-seven in 19184." Associate Justice John Dawson, ormer attorney general of Kansas. That prohiition is best for these ities is shown in the fact that the Kansas cities that have received no evenue whatever from vice have a ower tax rate than the cities which tuck to the license-fining system to he last ditch. Conditions in Leavenworth at the close of many years of llicit revenues from fines is a most triking example in support of this reposition. Leavenworth has no city uihling of any kind. Its many years ?f fines and saloon domination are list now being overcome. The city ?f Leavenworth during the last three >r lour years, deprived ot its revenue roni crime, has made its most renaikable growth." raaommanaaBHaMBaanaMHm " THEO^REUIABLE" 1 REMEDY FORMENn The villain in the melodrama also I is some difficulty trying to make \ s glances as dark as his moustache. t of The Ruts!
