THE FARCE GOES MERRILY ON

Just one report from Fort Smith OF
seizures made of con raband lqror en-
route to Oklahoma tells OF the confis.
cation of shipment of coffins loaded
with five-gallon jugs of whiskey con.
cealed in load of wood, in a box of
merchandise billed to woman's
name. and supposed to contain dry
goods. and in box of books, which
last would have gone through unsus-
pected, but that the literature"
sprang a leak.
And so the farce goes on of at
tempting to enforce statewide prohl.
bition laws which never have been en-.
forced, never will be and never can
be in communities where public sen.
timent opposes them. Meantime.
enough stuff gets through undetected
to make it worth while for 1,65S re-
tailers and thirty wholesalers to pay
the government special liquor tax in
the statewide prohibition state of
Oklahoma.

ANTLSALoON LEAGUE
EXPLAIN?

Superintendent Laughbaum of the
Anti-Saloon League is speaking in the
various communities of Colorado and
he tells his auditors that statewide
prohibition is a success in Oklahoma.
Read what the Daily OSlahoman has
to say on this subject.
(From the Daily Oklahoman, Au-
gust %, 1922:
Nearly two hundred persons in
Oklahoma City have paid a tax to the
federal government SO that the federal
officers will not disturb these two hun
dred persons for selling liquor. Nov
then, why haven't the enforcement of
ficers found out who these persons
are and why haven't they taken ac-
ton that they swore they would take .
How long will present conditions con
tinue? This is campaign year. Pos
sibly candidates for public office
don't want to antagonize the boot
leggers, but are the people satisfied
to have public officials enforce n few
laws and neglect others. Ask your
self if you are proud of the officials
who have sworn to enforce the law,
vet permit three times as many sa-
looms in Oklahoma City as we had
before we had the prohibitory law"
Oklahoma's prohibitory law is be-
ing openly and notoriously violated,

true. Why would he force such con-

 Shortly after the meeting had be- gun, Attorney General BalIard took the floor and said: What are you going 10 do about it? We Arizonans are coming to the coast and we are coming along the lines Of least re- sistance. We will come to Los An seles if we can, or we will go to san Diego.
 All Looking to Les Angeles
 With the same determined insist ence, representatives of the Imperial valley wanted 10 know What Los Angeles is going to do about it, They got their answer in the real Los Angeles way.
