BEER RAN FREE
FOR ONE YEAR
Eccentric Millionaire and
Banker in Missouri Town
Gives it Free to Everyone
Who Wished it.
HIS COUNTY WAS DRY
Legislature Had Provided
no Law Under Which he
Could be Convicted.

county dry" John Morrison Fuller,
a millionaire bank president, opened
n personal liberty hail." ami for
twelve months served free beer to all
who came and as much as they de-
sired to drink at any time except
Sundays. Each week day for the
last year his place was open.
No restrictions were placed upon
the consumption of the beer; 1t was
as free as the water that flowed in
the Missouri river past the town. A
fresh barrel OF IL always was on
tap, and rich men or poor, working
men or idlers, strangers or natives
held themselves.
AS lure for men TO come and
drink and as an enticement for them
to lilger long and drink more, the
room where free beer flowed had an
equipment OF easy chairs and set
tees and a long table with the latest
newspapers and magazines Two
white men and a negro in white uni
forms kept the beer mugs clean and
tapped a fresh keg when the one in
the ice box ran dry. In the whole
year there never was drought,
never lack OF beer.
After a year of this free dizpen-
sat.ol Of beer Mr.. Morrison-Fuller
has closed his personal liberty hall

cost is parched and dry.

The people OF the town even the

no Increase in drunkenness i'm the
year that beer was free. There was
even less drinking than when the
town had four saloons.
