THE CRUSADE IN KANSAS.
Temperance Spirit seems TO Pervad,


Topeka, Kan. Feb. 1s.-The anti-sa-
loon crusade, started by Mrs Nation
and her hatchet, now promises to sweep
the whole state and to continue until
not one saloon remains within its bor-
ders. Everywhere the plan seems the
same-a warning to the dealers in
liquor to close their places for good and
remove stocks and fixtures from the
state, and if this is ignored, a raid upon
every establishment which is in CON
fiict with the prohibitory law.
Never has the Temperance spirit been
SO much in evidence, the present cru
sade outdoing even that one made ia
nous by the election of John r. st.
