Anti-Saloon League


 tactics of the Prescott Courier waters and draw us into useless discussion article Profit and Loss" did or did not aege To save its face it consistently asserted that had stated that the expenditures institutions were taken out of money collected from saloon licenses msrepr entaon so astonishing that ask the public read the article in question carefully and judge itself
 But what could gain if the article had made that
 ement The only question presented the saloon cost than pays and the only Courier
 criticised with show of is that 7 per the soo pad the District Attorneys office and charged against the saloon is high. Cut altogether saloons costs us nearly S2o,ooo than they pay in.
 It important note in this that Courier had cut number of charges against the saloon pretence that only able claim about S3ooo profit county and offset for the social political moral ness and material deterioration resulting from drunkenness say anything ot the financial losses pointed out in Econ omc Of the Saloon printed last week and which the did not dare attack
 The Courier knew well enough driven ed position that the saloons profitable institution the W would be of and when found its position anked both sides and defensbe sought long enough to retreat and make new stand on another line of defense.
 It claims that prohibition will stop crime and cites statistics of Wichita Topeka City the and before through with the discussion this defense the Courier will realize uty placing any faith in statistics furnished by Liquor the Royal Arch and that while figures don't ie liars figure once in a while
 There significant reason why the Courier selected the e ample o these particular cities during the year NINETEEN HUNDRED AND FIVE These cities 1905 defy the laws o Kansas Kansas this time engaged desper O oil industries and everything else for me sight by the state officials and the people This proved opportune time for these cities nuy the laws against joint These cities had always been the scarlet letter sisters of and only the restraint of the kept When this removed have indicated nufcaion the rule this that started Carrie Nation-they and eaped the hachet this poor misguided the take the broken glass cracking mirrors Wichita Topeka viola on of the law and when that became of the defiance of law action taken by the Attorney General the 
 readiness place these cities under Mayor w. Rose Of Kansas City, oce socyard and packnghouse toughs thrown the second time and fined sIooo Space from giving all the details, but the nulihcaton of laws and the extraordinary record of crime with it. The Courier select ed the cities and the They whkey and prohibition cities for the time being They vied with open saloon cities for the honor of the highest record for Hun dred of children taken from school the support that their fathers squandered the saloons and demonstrated that the open saloon in prohibition states are not essentially different from the thing in license states It demonstrated that whkey and crime go together and natural that when the Courier threw its drag net the state ot Kansas to that rampant under prohibition under license that caught Kansas City, Wichita and Topeka finds its turned itself but that the fortune It supposed that had captured three possums and they turned pole and the Prescott Courier will take the advice of the old settlers will bury itself the best of getting rid of the scent They your kind of cities, Courier and you should derive great deal of satisfaction from their criminal records
 Of course easy get rid of the saloons would have been done long ago Wrongs that have existed for thousands of not cured day. but the right track and getting rich result The farmers and the lawyers buying in Kansas and litigation dying the especially practice Kansas best to the stories increasing majorites against attempt the saloon For number of Of the great political parties retained plank against prohibition and succeeding and decvey beaten until place in the platform Does that Kansas would stand for minute for prohibition ii all or of these stories true?
