Editor TIMES:
Allow me 10 occupy
small space in your valuable columns to
bring before the people of Dodge City
the Modus Operandi of the so called
champions of prohibition which has sim
ply developed in to Gaping game,
Il would call making business for one an,
Other" that is If one prosecutes the other
defends, with the final result-a settle
ment between prosecution and defense.
Now Just look at the enormous cost OF
the taxpayers; the expence of trial; wit
nesses and jury fees and confinement dur
ing the thirty days of imprisonment, say
nothing about boarding and doctor bills.
All this to simply gratify and fatten the
pockets of those that the prOhibitory
laws appoint to prosecute at the rate OF
$500 for each conviction. and at a cost
to the tax payers of from S5G0.00 to $1,000
90 in each case. Can you see any SINGER
ity in such proceedings, can they them
selves. There has been but three con-
victions in all these years of turmoil and
labor, but they were not for selling liqu-
or contrary to the prohibition law, they
were for contempt of court as everybody
knows.
But what does inscriptions vaga-
bonds care how much the people are tax
ed SO long as they can further their own
selfish ends, they as a rule have nothing.
consequently nothing to pay taxes on.
From 81 to 6per cent IS what we are
paying every year, and most of it to en-
force the prohibition law which is moth
ing but farce and failure from the start
to finish. 1t is time to strip such people
of the power they have been exercising
and acknowledge prohibition failure
Try the high license plan which will GER
tainIy place the liquor traffic IN the hands
of responsible citizens, under forfiture of
license if they sell to habitual drunkard
or minhr, with heavy fine and imprison-
ment that people will fear and respect.
This will bring about much better results
than fanaticism of cranks and the money
there is in it for the INSCRIPTIONS and
greedy prosecutors.
/ don't think the state is much worried
about prohibition or its strict enforce
ment from the very fact of joints running
open in all the largest and most prosper
GUS cities in the state such as Wichita,
Atkinson, Leavenworth, Arkansas City
and other places of less importance, where
there are no fanatics or unprincipled mon
grel informers. Prohibition at present is
like waif hunting purchaser or parent
to harbor or adopt it, irrespective of par
ty or politics; any body or any thing to
MAINTAIN or help it to continue maintain
ance, but it is SO badly distigured and
thoroughly disgusting that 10 body will
haye it either by adoption or purchase
even its late owner has tried ii and thrown
it upon the market being sick of such a
bargain. Poor. fellow he paid to much
for it and there is no sale for such an ar
ticle in Kansas; she has tried it for eight
years and knows the consequence.
