Reports Of bootlegging and IL
legal sales of whiskey in Kansas. a
prohibition state, are wildly exagg-
Grated, declares H. c. Byers. who is

He asserts that there is less than
one-fifth the amount Of liquor sold
in that state as is generally supposed
Kansas is a dry state and it is
Lax that there is any liquor sold, -
said Mr.. Byers. In Leavenworth ,
fer instance, there are no boot
leegers and it is impossible to get
a drink In Topeka there are few
places where booze can be secured,
providing the prospective purchas-
el can be youched for. The very
secrecy which must be maintained
naturally cuts down the amount of
business any one bootlegger dare do
The hotels is where the most of the
would be an easy matter for the To-
cal authorities to check the law
breaking.
There is more money in Kansas
banks per capita than there is in any
state in the union. | know of no
better argument for prohibition
In the six months time l have trav-
eled through Kansas l have never
seen liquor sold. l have been in
formed of a few places where it
could be obtained but | never at
tempted to get any, nor did l see
anyone who did.
kansas City, Kan, is naturally
some what iwetter than any other
Kansas town, for the liquor can be
obtained by going into Kansas City,

booze consumed than there was

towns. There was more money in
the prohibition cities and collections
were better. Travelling statesmen
soon learn these things and for that
reason we always gave more atten-
ton TO the places where whiskey was
not sold than to the places where
there was plenty of it.
I have been greatly amused at
the stories told of conditions in Kan
sas. | don't think that any person
who stops to think for a minute
ever believes such fairy stories. A
state which has more bank. deposits
per capita than other states in the
union can stand to be slandered
Although crops were extremely
