MRS. nation
To Be 0utdohe By The
Piohibitionists
IN KANSAS CITY
Justice Mason viii Seize Ii.
quor From Delivery Teams

Topeka, Kan, Dec 27.-Yesterday
the Prohibitionists of Kansas City,
Kan, began a crusade on the liquor
traffic that will make Mrs. Nation 's
recent efforts magnificent by compar.
ison. An imaginary line divides Kan.
sas City, Kan. from Kansas City,
Mo.
Representatives of all the temper
ance and church organizations in the
Kansas town held meeting in Justice
y. M. Mason's court room Tuesday
and formulated brand new plan by
which they hope to enforce the pro-
Ehlbitory laws. They decided to seize
Iall beer and whiskey brought into the
city
They do not intend to wait until the
goods have been delivered. Deputy
constables are stationed at three wag-
ION bridges leading from Kansas City,
NO., and the drivers, the wagons, the
horses and the liquor will be seized
and taken to Justice Mason's district.
The Hurrel search aod seizure law
gives constable or his deputies this
authority, according to Justice Mason.
As all the beer and whisky used In the
Kansas town Is purchased in Missouri,
and as it is all delivered by wagon. the
Prohibitionists hope to stop the sale
Of liquor in Kansas City, Kan, entire
".
Justice Mason ..has been one OF the
most active prohibition workers in
Wyandotte county. About three
months ago he started crusade and
without the sanction of the County
Attorney issued warrants for the ar
gaet Of several saloon keepers, seized
their gouds and convicted them. Tho
crusade YVES stopped by the County
Commissioners, who refused to allow
the Justice and his constables fee for
this work.
As result of0these raids, however,
Justice Mason has the contents
OF five or six saloons in the cellar un.
der his court room AMI there has been
no disposition n ade of the goods.
