How Paddock Law" Worked and
Closing of the saloons.

remarkable address was given
"Wednesday evening at the Church Of
Oar Father. Thirteenth aand L streets,
BY Hon. c. W. Tricket, assistant attor-
ney general of tho State OF Kansas. It
was not tho ordinary temperance die
course, made up OF the speakers views
and opinions. but a lawyer-like recital
OF facts Of personal experience in the
enforcement Of law.
The speaker told how in June 1906
he was sent to Kansas City. Kans.. a
city Of 10000 people. separated only by
an imaginary line from Kansas City,
No. 10 enforce the prohibitory law %
the State OF Kansas. The city had then,
on the Kansas side. 256 saloons. which
were under a virtual license system. dis
guised as system OF fines" and
bringing SlO0,0O0 revenue. The then
mayor. he said. had been elected on the
avowed platform Of D the cOnsti-
tuition and the laws" and had appoint
ed a police force in league with the
saloon interests.
Convictions in the criminal courts for
liquor selling had been proved prac;i-
cally impossible since always at Least
one liquor sympathizer could get on a
Jury TO cause a mistrial. Hence the
prosecutor resoVted 10 injunctions e. 4
court Of equity, sorbldding men to VIC
late the law Of the State Of Kansas,
and Furnishing them with fine and i'm
prisonment for contempt when they dis
obeyed +he mandate Of tho court. With
this he put in force the long-ueGIected
common nuisance clause of the law,
and 10 "abate the nuisance" when de-
clared, the court ordered the sheriff TO
lock up the places where the nuisance
existed. and keep them locked, a sys-
TEN which has come TO be known as
''the paddock law" Within thirty days
every saloon IN Kansas City. Kans,, was
closed. and the streets were full of
wagons hauling saloon fixtures across
the Missouri border.
The economic results are amazing. The

Saved Money by ''Forcc Account" !"

Saved Money by Force Account"
The construction of the Upper
Deer Flat reservoir of the Payette-
Boise irrigation project, Idaho. by
force account affords an illustration
CT the economy effected by the gov
crnment In doing It's own work under
certain conditions. The lowest offer
for moving earthwork for this dam
was 26 cents per cubic yard. The ac-
tual cost OF doing the work during
the month of March, 1907, when la
Dor conditions were not particularly
favorable and the weather was raw,
shows that the total cost to the gov
eminent was less than IS cents per
cubic yard, or less than one-half OF
the lowest bid received. This in
cludes what is known as the over
charge, that is the cost of the equip
ment and getting the material on the
ground.
While this result is somewhat OK
ceptional, the results justify the stand
taken by the secretary of the interior
at various times In refusing to ac-
cent bids which appear to be high
and In ordering the work done by
the competent engineers on the
ground Most of these men have been
selected with reference 20 their eX-
rerienc and ability in handling work,
and under the present conditions in
the west are most competent to car
~ on the work economically and ef-
flciently than the ordinary contract
or moro especially as they do not
have to provide for extraordinary
emcr gcncies which must be consider
ed by the contractor in offering his
bid.--Rolse Capital-News.
