LONE WOMAN IN
WAR ON SALOON
Mrs. Emma Jones Says Sale of
Liquor on Sunday Must
Cease in Moline.
TO PROTECT HER OWN HOME
Declares Her Husband Spends Most
of His Income Over Bar-Be-
gins Campaign Yesterday.

Mrs. Emma Jones, 1903 Eleventh
street, Moline. who declares she has
been driven to the washtub because
her husband spends more money
than he can afford on liquor, has de-
clared war on the Sunday saloon in
her home city. She vows she will
not cease her campaign until every
saloon in that city closes its doors
Saturday night and does not open
them again until Monday morning.
She is not trying to put the saloon
out OF business, she states, but she
insists that every man, including her
own husband, ought to be able to
get all he wants to drink in six
days, and to pass the Sabbath day
at his home with his family instead
of hanging over saloon bars. That's
the import OF the statement Mrs.
Jones gave out today.
De1ied Police Escort.
The woman has resided in Moline
all of her life, and says she does not
want any further reward in her pres
ent war than to see the bars closed
on Sunday. Yesterday noon. before
she started out, she telephoned po-
lice headquarters and asked that an
officer be allowed to accompany her.
She was informed that all of the men
IN the department were otherwise oc
cupied. Mrs. Jones visited IL ,sa-
looms. She found four open and six
closed. She suspects that the six
where the doors were locked had re-
ceived a tip of her coming. The five
places where she was able to enter
were:
Arthur Deloof. 1901 Tenth street.
B. e. Johnson, 1903 Fifteenth
street.
Edward vanDaeIe. 14O1 Seventh
avenue.
E. W. Wolstencroft, SGT Four
teenth street.
Warrants sworn Out.
Mrs. Jones this morning swore out
warrants against the four charging
them with keeping their saloons open
on Sunday.
I'm not a crank" Mrs. Jones said
today. But the Sunday saloon has
kept me bending over the wash tub
to meet the deficit in the family in
come that goes over the bars on Sun
day in my city. It's fight to live
with me, and I'm not going to quit
until every barreom is silenced on

inclined TO deal leniently with native
sons who boosted their census returns.
Census. Director Durand has taken
this occasion to point out that lasting

two conspicuous examples Of injurious

hundreds Of thousands of cases of

The reason is simple; while the
