When Jchn Risse. now g years
old. a pioneer of Wyandotte county,
became too old to work or to take
care of business. he looked about for
a way to arrange his aff3ir so th2t
he would have an easy old age. The
plan he decided on was to sell his
property and take a mortgage for
the price. Then he would live on
the interest of the mortgage. SO he
sold for $1,000. which he thought
would give him an income Of 1920 a
year. But he found ont different.
He had always paid tax OF $3.50
a year on the property. and then he
was notified to appear and pay the
same amount on the mortgage. Yes
erday he went before the Wyandotte
county commissioners.
"Why must l pay on the mortgage,
when the man who now holds the
title pays on the property" he asked.
at is double taxation"
The commissioners agreed, and
could on'y plead that it was not
their fault, but the fault Of the Kan
sas law.

Rlsse said. Ard now part Of it is
taken from me. There is not enough

could not be enforced. They were en-
forcing the prohibition law in that short
time as we'll as the law against con-
Hcealed weapons.
Then, too, the outside world wanted
to see how the commission government
would take, but before time was taken
to test it the officers in charge of the
city practically conceded the law could
not be enforced, and they are engaged
in another civil war.
Prohibition can be enforced if the
right kind of officers are i'll charge. 1t
would be as hard to buy a bottle of
whiskey in Homer as it would be for

logging and a few blind tigers here for

PAY MEN IN CASH
Checks Induce Employees into Saloons
and There They Get Drunk.

Kansas City Journal May g; "On the
ground that pay check may lead work
ingmen to saloons to have it cashed, the
Metropolitan Street Railway Company
will pay all employees in money in the,
future. The first payment of street
railway men in currency was made yes
terday. The custom has been in vogue
for years Of making the bi-monthly
payments in checks drawn on the COM
pany. During this time the officials
have made determined fight against
their employees patronizing saloons. The
facility with which checks may be trans
formed into currency of the realm in
saloons and the frequency with which
that process is gone through at most
any corner 'refreshment' place, has had
a tendency, say the company officials, to
induce the railway workrnen to hike to
the nearest corner to cash their checks.
A couple of drinks are almost certain
to result, say the officials. and they in
tend paying with cash to remove the
temptation"
And when the saloon has absorbed
the earnings of the employees, who are
the greatest sufferers, the families of
the men who have wasted their hard
earnings in the saloon and the business
men, If the wife of the employe has no
money how can she buy what the bust
ness man has for sale, but if the sale is
on credit, how long will the credit be
good if the Nancy earned by the en-
ploye is spent in the saloon?

GATHERING OF PLACE
SEEKERS

From information received, Monroe
was thronged with a gathering of place
seekers. This gathering of men who
have been feasting and fattening at the
public crib was suggested by the Farm
Lands Congress then in session Since
then the developments would indicate
that very few crumbs of comfort are
left to the old feeders. Indeed the
garllerers have been thrown into a com
motion by the announcement that Judge
Hall will be candidate for governor
and that Ransdell is to contest Fosters
claim to his senatorial seat.
