But How Get the Licenses9

Among the laws passed by the leg
islature is one providing that in all
prosecutions brought for the violation
Of the prohibilory law the fact that
United States government liquor
license has been issued TO the defend
ant shall be prima facio evidence TINT
such defendant is engaged in the sell
ing Of intoxicating liquors at the
place and during the entire time men
toned In such license; and II judy
ment be rendered against the defend
ant in any such prosecution, such
Judgment shall include an order per-
petually enjoining and restraining
the defendant from selling intoXicat-
ing liquors in violation OF the laws Of
the State.
As the holder Of the government
license cannot be made to testify
against himself as to his possession
thereof and that the internal revenue
collector, government official, can
not 10 made to come into court by a
county attorney nor to produce his
records there, the law appears to be
more ornamental than useful.

Legislative Extravaganza.

In some respects the Legislature
Just closed was q success, II others
"a dismal failure. 1t has sinned
most in its extravaganza. This Is Of
all times period in Kansas history
when economy is necessary, when it
is the duty Of the State, county and
municipality to spend money wisely
and get value received, to secure
every income possible and swell the
surplus, II by any good fortune one
exists, or diminish the debt II by any
III luck one is present.
The Kansas legislature in its clos
ing hours was sight for men and
gods in the reckless throwing out Of
money to everybody who asked for it.
Some Of the little items, which
come under the head OF small-fry
steals, are as follows:
W. G. Webb $3.50, for revising bills;
J. +. Myers STA, for owning type
writer's;
Ed. Snow 800, for extra printing;
Frank Forrest 5000, for extra jani-
tor work;
Assistant janitors $l,64S, for extra
work.
Ben Rich $3.50, for Ben Rich;
The Advocate $1,000, for regular
work;
Executive Council $4,000, for TX
ecutive Council;
Railroad Commissioners 81, 900, for
Railroad Commissioners;
And so on, the total amounting TO
100000.
1t reminds us Of the Kansas man
who made a tour Of Europe. During
the journey he was besieged for tips
on every hand, and asked for money
wherever he turned. When 1t was all
over and he stood on the steamer
ready to leave the dock TO cross the
Atlantic homeward, he eyed the
crowd on the dock and taking out his
purse exclaimed. "IIere now, durn
ye, il there's anybody in Europe that
| haven't paid come an get yer
money"
The Legislature at its close seems
to have given the same invitation and
hen paid all bills presented.
Such wasteiulness il at all times
lisgraceiul. IL is doubly so in Kan
'as' present condition and 1t does not
essen the crime that the Republican
mouse and the populist senate joined
hands In the wholesale treasury loot

ABILENE WEEKLY REFLECTOR ABILENE KANSAS MARCH a. 1925

Speaking Of the kind Of footing that
the fopulists have INDUCED in, sena-
tor Scott says: Zone Of the shame
ful and outrageous thing that has
come to light during the past few
weeks is the way the state house has
been looted Of its furniture. One OF
the new state officers told me that
when he took possession Of bis office
there were only two chairs in it and
they were both broken. And al
though both representative hall and
the senate chamber and the rooms at
tached to them were fully furnished
two years ago, it was found necessary
this winter TO reft them almost en-
tirely, over two thousand dollars hay-
ing been spent for that purpose" 1t
would seem to be good thing to
elect officers who already have their
houses furnished.

What a Newspaper Tells.

Some way man knows whether
contemporary in an adjoining county
or q remote county has to "hustle his
ads, whether he has to dun his sub
scribers, whether he lives In town
that reads, whether his people are
enterprising or not. The whole paper
speaks out these things, and change
for the better or the worse in a town,
is printed to the world in the papers
that 60 out Of it--on the good and the
bad, on the Just and the unjust alike.
The low class paper, the paper that
starves an editor, makes him hope
less, hsartless, worthless-comes from
a town where the little scrap OF city
printing is lot to the lowest bidder
while the city ink and the city blank
books are purchased at ten prices from
the nickle-plate drummer who tells
the mayor q funny story and fills him
full OF bad cigar smoke, town where
the citizens walk outside the rough
stone Sidewalk in a little path, a town
where the Preside Companion and
the lectures Of lngersoll are the pub
lie library, where The public spirit
consists In an annual failure to get up
Fourth Of July celebration, a town
with a factional fight, town with a
long and unbroken history OF neglect
cd opportunities, and a town thai
needs paint, needs enterprise and
above oil needs from two to ten first
class funerals. Twill White.

There is little question of prohibi-

They have a way Of cvading the
prohibitory law down on the state
line that Is at least ingenious but
ought not to be hard to stop. The
dives are built for the purpose and
are located on the Missouri side with
a stockadc fifteen feet high extending
over into Kansas. A government
license to sell liquor in Kansas is the
only license Of any kind taken out.
The prohibition laws Of this state per-
nit the conliscation Of all liquor
found in the state, and to avoid this
the whisky, beer, etc, is kept in Mis-
souri,. The customer makes known
his wants, goes into the stockade,
which puts him in Kansas, and there
he gets his liquor from the Missouri
saloon.
