DEFENDS MRS. NATION
Kansas City Preachers Denounce the
Police For Arresting her when
they do not MOlest SalOOnists

Kansas City, April 26-The entire
police department of Kansas City was
embraced in sweeping, bitter denunci-
alton at a meeting at the Union Mis-
sion last night. Mrs. Carrie Nation,
being detained in Jail at Wichita, was
unable to be present in the flesh, but
she was present in the spirit.
The meeting was held as a protest
against the action of the police in ar
resting Mrs. Carrie Nation, while they
failed to arrest saloon keepers who
were violating the Sunday closing
law. Rev. William Carter, pastor of
of the First Presbyterian church, de-
clared that, in his opinion, Mrs. Ma
tion was not guilty Of even technical
violation, and paraphrasing Mark
ham, called Police Judge McAuley "a
'half brother to the ass"
Rev. John w. Coontz, pastor of the
Washington Street Methodist church,
South, ridiculed McAuley's action in
refusing diamond as present from
saloon men, declaring that he did not
make anything by it.
Judge McAuley need not fear he
will ever be misunderstood by the peo-
pie of this city," said Rev. Mr..
Coontz. "If we should misunderstood
him it would be compliment to
him."
Rev. Mr.. Alton, pastor of the West
port Methodist church, south, said the
treatment Mrs. Nation received was
"enough to make every decent man in
Kansas City blush with shame" Pro
ceeding, he said that he did not want
to be misunderstood as saying tha
there were no ohonest, conscientious po
lice officers.
Instantly Rev. Mr.. Carter broke in
"If it isfound out, though, they are
Immediately brought before the com
missioners."
The remark was followed by cries
of "FlanniganW "Flannigan." anC
wild cheers intermingled with Kisses
which were evidently meant for thepo
lice commissioners.
The meeting closed with the adop
tion of resolutions in which the mem
bers of the police commission wer'
mentioned by name and warned tina
steps would be taken to have them inn
peached unless they enforcet
the Sunday law, and calling
upon the governor to consider tn
moral state of affairs that exists to
day" in Kansas City,
1t is not intended to let the fight en
with mere denunciations. Ever
church in the city and every oragniza
tion desirous of seeing the laws Ell
forced is asked to appoint a commit
of three to meet with other committee
of like character at the Midlan
hotel Monday afternoon. An organ
zation will then be formed for carry
ing on the fight which was started wit
= the arrest of Mrs. Nation.
