with the woman's crusade movement.
The original crusade started in Ohio in

George w. Cartus and Thomas Mast, of

saloons and the outgrowth Of 1T, | think,
is the w. c. T. U, The saloons were

Mr.. Steele was asked if it was neces-
sary for the Kansas crusaders to take

the open violation of the no-lcense law.
He replied that lawlessness engenders
