Q: dug the (mum at the prohibitory kw is an impression that is not home out by the facts in Kansas ' itself Several of the Eastern papers have predicted as the result of the present disturbance that the prohibitory law wil! posithely be repealed in the near future. That is so hr from being the fact that If no time since the prohibit ory In: went into eflect, twenty years ago, has the sentiment for reaming thé law bum so strong a not. . The fitment legislature has 'vithin it let days passed a very stringent set, known as the Nui- sance Act,” passing it by a very large majority. This Act em- powers _ public officers to seize‘ liquor and the fixtures of saloonsi wherever found, taking the pieâ€"5 sence of them as prima-£acie evidence of the violation of the law. . .‘This‘ will enable police, officers and]; county oficiuls to act direct!“ without Waiting for the tediousi process 6: gaining evidence} through witnesses. Not' only isl resubmissiou ‘not a stinger at1 present, but it is not even a remote possibility, and our prohibitory statute was never solirmly es- tablished as now. . V This also should be slated as a fact, that eyery act which could in any way be termed lawless. where the temperance people have been roused by a long and exasperatiug failure of public officials to do - their duty, has been. widely "heruleled' and in many cséésgreatly enggenfied. Thegreut majority of as people of Kansas are law- nbibixig. They wish to see this particular law enforced. They fill never cox of the saloon. The worst lawlessness we havef ever vex‘perienced in connection! with the violation of our prohibit- ory ‘lsw does not begin" to compare in seriousness with the lawlessness to be found in thousands of townsl where the saloon is’a licensed: 'nstitution. »-' In. many editorislsé Who- utterances in coniinnni- r ties where the saloon flourishes: there have been more indignant? eateries against the, lawlessnessI 6f Mrs; Nation than have been! heard from those editorials» or! public utterances against the saloon for years. The most Inw- leis institution we have in this country today is the saloon. If there had been as much outcry against that‘within the last ten years as there has been against Mrs. Nation within the last ten ‘days, it would seem like a little more proportionate. outcry, when everything is taken into account. > Are you onvour subscription list? ‘ If not, why not? This much the good temperanc’e‘ people of Kansas wish to empha- size: we' believe in. making the saloon outlaw, and, we its going to work to elect men, regardless of partisan politids,'who will en- force this law as the people mean to have it enforced. We are also going to do our best to train our children in habits of “total chafin- enée, and by every process of education and through legally established processes rid on; com- munities as far find an fégt as possible from the greatest curse of tbe age.â€"_â€"Tonu, Km. consent to the licensing mgnmmpomfi ' Y “Local politics in Higiland Burl promises to. .spring a sensafiéna scandal on that otherwise“ panda suburb,and all because than is u cry- made that ”a' reform mayor in wanwd. -- ‘ Daniel Cobb; the result: nominee of what is called the Tammany kick at, ismakiug a hard fight against. the nominee of’tbe Regular city ticket, Roben G.
