Whew What a Whopper !!

Midas Criterion for March whisky Magazine(
prints the following in article from its high-brow
correspondent in Louisville Ky.
1t has been many year since twenty-five
upon the market but take from the farmer the demand for
by the dsters and twenty five will be the rule
The demand for rye negligible except by dister take
them from the rye market and great farming crop will fall
practically nothing at all.
In these days. when chemicals enter SO largely
into the manufacture of liquor the above statement
will make even the farmers mule laugh.

paid out by the city for this work. If, prior
May 1 the Mayor and his wet Commissioners had call
ed the former saloonkeepers before them and told
them pointedly and plainly that they would have
close the evening of May and stay closed
go to JAIL nearly ALL if not all, would have quit and
this $1,000 need not have been spent by the city, and
their booteggng friends taught the important lesson
that Prohibition may prohibit, but when enforced
it does change some peoples boarding place.
Public Officials Should Not Claim Credit for Law
Enforcement
Although the Mayor and his wet Commissioners,
trying to take all the credit for this law
forcement there were rumors of recall that made
them get busy. They were really falsely accused by
their friends, who blamed them for going too far and
treading upon their toes. They certainly not to
blame" for the blame should be placed where it be-
longs and that is with the grand jury which did such
efficient work. having been selected as stated above.
The present council is four wet and one dry. Mr.
Ruhrauff, who has been subjected to all of in
digntes by his wet colleagues during his term of Of
flee, is a candidate the Citizens Good Government
Ticket and at the primary received 1888 votes
than the highest of the VETS showing his vndication
by the people.
The matter of enforcing the law was further
taken up by the Board of Supervisors who upon the
recommendation of States Attorney J. L. Deck, set
aside fund Of $1,000 for this purpose Up until the
present time about $500 had been paid of this fund
The lesson taught by this experience at Decatur is
that the dry people should support candidates for Of
flee who will enforce the law.

The Real Situation in Decatur


After careful consideration we are in position to
give the real situation at Decatur
The dry law went into force on May g. 1914 The
Mayor and the three wet commissioners opposed
having any ordinance at all on the liquor question:
saying that the state local option law enough The
citizens demanded that dry ordinance should be pre-
pared and they appointed counsel to confer with the
city council and its attorney and finally May 25
1914 an ordinance passed and signed. 1t was not
published until June IS, 1914, and it did not go into
effect until Tune 25 1914 The saloons continued to
operate substantially they had done before without
any license being paid to the city While the coun-
Gil was causing this delay, the Citizens Good Govern
League secretly employed detectives to get evi-
dence against violators. In June nearly $500, sub
scribed by the League, paid to get this evidence
There were about twenty arrested and convicted at the
August term of the county court
Open Violations of Law
During the carnival the saloons ran wide open,
under the subterfuge of clubs, and it only by the
persistent and constant demands OF the Citizens Good
Government League that the Mayor and the three
Commissioners 1.-TWO of whom with him, candi-
dates for reelection the ticket compelled
to enforce the law They did want to enforce it
because the volators their personal friends and
they had always stood together. Finally, after
threatened recall they Tred detecIVeS ana WHen the
work of the detectives had been completed there
still of the places which the detectives had
not been able to and get the evidence necessary
for conviction The grand jury was in session at this
time and took up this work One half of the Board
of Supervisors elected by the dry element of Deca-
tur by uniting upon fusion ticket. This made the
Board of Supervisors dry The grand jury which they
selected considered by the Judge of the dry
est grand ures in the city's history The grand jury
found what frequented these places and
brought these up and put them under OATH and in
this way they got the evidence wanted and when the
indictments returned they contained the names
of not only the detectives but also twenty to twenty
five of their customers Indictments against about IS
were returned. When the defendants saw the list of
witnesses nearly all pleaded guilty instead of fighting
the cases as they had done before Sometime like ST roo
