The Governor and Internal Revenue
Collector of Kansas are now in dis
cussion through the papers on the ques-
ton of the Prohibition Law in this
state. The collector claims that if the
state and county and city authorities
enforced the laws as they should there
would be no government licenses issued
in Kansas, none would he needed.
He claims that it is not the state but
the U. S. authorities who are unearth-
ing the boot-leggers in all parts of
Kansas. And the state authorities in
turn blame it on the county authorities.
the county attornies, sheriffs and con-
stables, who are sworn in to ferret out
crime and don't do it but wait for some
one to make complaint, some one
with a grudge. The collector openly
charges that these minor officials well
know who are the violators in their re-
spective counties, but for some pecu-
liar reason do not bring prosecutions;
that the depot records, open to all legal
officers, plainly show who are the boot
leRgers, but that don't concern these
officials. 1t may be that there will be
an awakening soon.

In olden times the railroads kept all
their workings, especially of accidents,
secret and newspaper men found it
hard to catch on. Now they want to
make every thing public, so that people
can keep acquainted with troubles and
how 70 avoid them. The accident last
week to the Flyer near Ellis was in
vestigated by the railroad officials, who
called in couple of the best citizens
of Ellis and their report shows the &C
cident was caused by broken rail and
was unavoidable. The rails were new

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages,
and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh, being a constitutional dis
ease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon t. e
blood and mucous surfaces OF the
system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting nature
in doing it's work. The proprletors
have so much faith in its curative
powers that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to
cure. Send for list of testimonials.
