SITUATION IN KANSAS.


A fine, ruddy-faced, outstanding,
deep-chested Kansas farmer, who APP
peared to be of Teutonic descent and
consequently could hardly have in
herited a bigoted view of the whisky
question, put 1t this way:
Yes; man can get whisky and
get drunk in Kansas If he's bound to.
II may be true that some men who are
bound to will drink more out OF bot
tie than they would over a bar But,
you see, when man reaches the stage
where he Is bound to have whisky or
bust you can't do much for him any
way. And IL you ask that man he'll
probably tell you that he got his
whisky habit from visiting saloons for
sochbility. It's the boys we are think
ing of. We believe a normal boy isn't
very apt to get a whisky habit out of
a bootlegger's bottle. Nine times out
of ten, II he gets the habit at all 1t
will be by dropping into a saloon with
his friends for a social glass. SO far
as the hardened soak is concerned,
maybe our law is failure; but the
hardened soak is failure, too. We
don't want to bring up a fresh crop
Out in my locality resubmission would
be defeated two to one"
