Tired of Their Lies

Sefprotectlon is the first law of nature There
is limit to all human endurance at which patience
to be a virtue. Without provocation, without
the slightest foundation for their assertions, the
opponents of prohibition have sought to single out
Kansas City, Kansas, and demonstrate her to be
''frightful example, of the business evils which,
they claim, follow prohibition. Every informed
person is well aware that Kansas City, Kansas since
the enforcement Of the prohbitory law, has made
greater increase in business, in population and
splendid development in civic affairs, than at
any similar period in her history.
Without discussing economic issues debating
moral questions the Mercantile Club of Kansas City,
Kansas feels that, as business proposition, it owes
it to the people and the business of the city
to present to the general public the actual situation
in their city, since the enforcement Of the prohbi-
tory law, which began to take final effect about
July l, 1906, and to determinedy resent the
pagn Of prevarication, misrepresentation and cal
umny Of which their city has been made the target.
We trust that the simple facts they exist in
Kansas City, Kansas, will be sufficient to convince
the opponents of prohibition that in the future it
will be just we'll for the liquor interests to let
Kansas City, Kansas, alone and to go about
their business of making paupers and drunk
ards, if they DESIRE while Kansas City, Kansas,
goes about her business of making happy homes,
hopeful children, conented wives and good citizens
and continuing to improve and develop her re-
sources
And the Club proceeds to offer official figures concerning
taxes, population bank deposits schools Streets etc. all
which show remarkable growth and prosperity for the
city.
