WOMEN EXCLUDED

If a saloon is a necessary ad- junct to a town, and the men and boys cant really get along without one, 1t seems a little queer that the women should be entirdly excluded. It is not fair and we claim the privelige of going in if we want to, besides we have to contribute to the support of these necessary t9 institutions, in boys, husbands and fathers. clothes, food ane pleasure, then why exclude our presence2 We pay taxes to keep up the prisons, jails, aims houses, reformataries. etc. then then why cant We be allowed to go in and have a little fun? It is mighty curious ruling. Fact is, brother, l think the whole human race ought to be eX- cluded from a place our city dads and our great state has de- clared bad for women. Such a place is not really safe for any boby.
 Think of man of good moral charactsr() being granted li- cense by good moral community to keep a place unfit for your wife or daughter to enter.
 tell you it is preposterous and I beg of you, don't send my boy where your girl can't go, and say, there's no danger for boys, you know. ;" There is no more excuse for my boy to be low thar your girl. Then, please do not l tell him so. This worlds old lie is a boys worst foe to good or tc bad they both must go. ;"

MORE OF THE KNOXVILLE FAILURE :. :

The chief of police said that the man who wrote the articles for the Chattanooga Times could have found on looking at the books of the city comptroller that Knox vile never, in any one year, re- ceived over S22, GOO as license and this, with the advalorem, did not bring it to S25, 900; hence he could not truthfully boast of $6O, 900 loss to the city as revenue as he tried to do. Any third-grade pupil" this chief of police said, ''could tell you that l12 saloons, paying S2OO a year did not pro- duce $60, 900 revenue to the city, This writer, whom we believe paid l2 l-2 cents per line for his printing, spoke of the vacant houses and signs for rent at these same l12used-to-be saloons. This chief of police says: Il would like for any man to point out as many as six business hous- es for rent ini Knoxville. " He further says: "A former saloon man himself renewed the lease on his building for five years at a big price. and another saloonis on Gay street corner store took a ninety-nine year lease.
 He also adds that instead of men selling whiskey at the soft drink stands without molestation. as the writer stated, that if he had gone to the criminal court clerk office he would have found convictions and indictments ga lore against these men for violat- ing the law. and some of them getting term" somewhere that they least expected. In one soft drink stand the proprietor and every employer is indicted from two to four times each.
 This has been given quite a deal of publicity in our own Ar kansas big dailies recently. It received, however, quite a jolt when Chief of Police Chandler said: The writer of these arti- cles had free access to the records of the police department as we'll as those of the city recorder, the criminal court clerk and justices of the peace. He never asked me for a word or a figure, but had he done so would have 9lad- ly given them to him correctly. In comparison for the three months just past he could have learned the following: Arrests November, December and Jan- .uary, wet, l045, drunk, 649.
 Arrests November, December and January, dry. 594. drunk 296."
