MORE ABOUT TENNESSEE

Several days ago we provided an article for this space devoted to the failure of prohibition in Tennessee.
 |, has been designated by a pr. Gil- |lespie as utterly false, a deliberate
 islander on the people of that state and Justification of conditions
 which exist there. The good doctor is about as consistent as his brother
 prohibitionists, however, as later in
 his letter, he confirms what we said
 about non enforcement of prohibition in that state.
 For the benefit of the doctor and others who may have read his de nunciation of the Arizona Local Self Government League. we will sub init the following facts, in proof of our contentious, and which. if the doctor is as conversant with condi tions in Tennessee as he professes,
 should be known to him.
 After the passage of statewide pro- hibition, the legislature enacted a law licensing, and giving cities and coun- ties the right to license saloons Gov ernOr Hooper of that state, pro hibitionist. signed that law. The li
 cense for saloons is placed at s12J a quarter and cities may charge what they like in addition. On Sept
 ember of this year, Governor Hoop
 CTS tax agent, also a prohibitionist went to Chattanooga where seventy five saloons had failed to pay their
 state quarterly license They plead

license and continue, to operate. Did the state tell them to quit then? N3' it compromised with them for s97 7.5O each and they are still running.
 Can pr. Gillespie deny this?
 The four principal cities of Ten ressee, Memphis, Nashville, Chatta- nooga and Knoxville have more sa- looms and social clubs" dispensing liquors now and per capita consum : ton ill the state has shown no de- crease There are more saloons in Chattanooga today under the state privilege tax for retail liquor deai- CTS than there was under license.
 Will Dr. Gillespie deny that crime has increased in Tennessee under prohibition? The records show that in 1908, the last year of license in crime was $157,OO Last year it was s173 900 and this year it will be over S1S0,000. Will the good doctor deny that three years after Tennessee a6opted statewide prohibition, Mem rhs led all the cities of the world ill number of murders in proportion t1 population with 64.3 homicldeS per 100000 inhabitants in one year? If so, he is referred to the United States census reports, which will also tell him that wet" Milwaukees rec ord the same years was four per cent per 100000 population.
 The doctor nonchalantly puts us in the Ananias class when we say his state is getting more revenue from liquor now than when the state was wet He thinks that ought to settle the argument. A few days ago the state comptroller was asked to provide the actual figures. The comptroller is prohibitionist and is probably known to Dr. Gillespie, who should be interested in his figures Here they are:

tion in the west counties as in the dry.
 The overhead charges are as much in a small county as in a large one. The machinery is practically the same. There must be so many institutions, so many officials and so many salaries. The larger the county, the more people it has, the less it's per capita expense ought to be.
 The liquor traffic reverses this rule with these counties mentioned. To show that it is the liquor traffic and nothing else, we give some more fig ures for small counties:
 Pinal county assessment ..$223,9S4.l4 IA Coconino county assessment 255, ,135.24 Mohave county assessment. 192,949.44 Pinal county per capita tax. Z4.|6 Coconino county per capita tax. 31.3S Mohave county per capita tax... 51.15 Average. three wet counties ..$35.75 These three counties have a much smaller population than the three dry counties and ought to have much smaller per capita tax, if Johnny Wright was right But these counties run nearly three times as much as the three dry counties. Thus any voter ought to be able to see at glance that the liquor traffic increases taxes and prohibition lessens them and one does not need to go away from home tc prove it.
 However, Kansas and Nebraska fur | nish the outside proof. They started out in 1880, while both states were wet, with the following tax rates: Kansas state tax rate 5.5 mills; Ne braska state tax rate 3.9 mills. ] In 1913, after Kansas had tried pro- hibition and Nebraska had continued
 under license. the following was the tax
 rate:
 l Kansas state tax rate 1.2 mills; Ne braska state tax rate 7.7 mills. | Wet Nebraska's rate after trying out 1 the license system, is now more thar six times as much as Kansas under
 prohibition.

 new ones.

JOHNNY WRIGHT FIGURES

John B. Wright, who juggles figures 1 for the Arizona Local Self Government League, an organization of saloons 1 for saloons and by saloons, in a page advertisement in a Phoenix newspaper | takes exception to a statement of mine l to this effect:
 Apache and Graham counties have l the best record, and they are both dry under local option, Navajo has the third best record, and it has the least num- Der of saloons of any license county. I Just in proportion as saloons increase, crime increases and debts increase" MT. Wright does not dispute the l above in any particular, but he flies off on a tangent and says:
 But strangely enough, not a word I about tax rates, the ONLY evidence of what government costs the people. Here they are, county and state rates for 1913:
 1 Graham county (dry) ........ ...l94 Apache county (dry) .. .........1.9O l Navajo county nearly dry ........1 1.9O 1 Cochise county (wet .. ......... .1.05 l Yavapai county (Wet .. 100 l Gila and Maricopa counties (weD .06 1 Here Johnny Wright rests his case and it goes to the jury. Johnny is wearing a supercilous smile and shrugs l his shoulders as though emphasizing his mental expression, There, I guess that will hold you for awhile, at least until I can invent another one"
 MT. Wright underscores the word 1 "ONLY'' and stakes his all on the haZ- ard of that die. But here he is wrong, as usual The cost of government is measured by returns as compared with investment. ss"< lIS!
 It does mighty little good to knock Johnny Wright down with a fact. for
 he bobs up again with new qulb or quibble, like typical pettyfogger, and you have the job to do all over again
 Here is a straight arm jab in his solar plexus:
 Graham county assessment. $131 ,195.ll Apache county assessment. 4,547.S' Navajo county assessment. 4,243.S1 | Three dry counties. S3S5, ,9S6.S.

 They are the positive evidence of the cost of government to the people. The
 three wet counties cost six times as
 much to run them as the three dry | counties.
 However. this is not quite fair. The three wet counties have much more
