BOOZE BILL OF
kE0kUk SMALL
Little Money paid Here For Liquid
Cheer in Comparison With
Some Other
Cities.
RECEIPTS TOOK A DROP
over Twice as Much Was Taken in
During the Construction
of the Water
Power.
RECEIPTS TOOK A DROP

/ How much money is spent FOL
wine. beer. and whiskey in keokui
annually?
/ How much do the fourteen saloon
keepers of the city spend annually
! in the city for wages, rent, light
heat. cigars, ice, beer and other eN
penses incidental TO their business
/ These questions have been asked
many times since it became certain
that Keokuk and Iowa would be dry
on and after January l, 1916.
/ Few of these questions can be an
swered with accuracy because Of the
reluctance of the average man g
give out information concerning ms
Income and expenditures during the
year.
The amount of money spent over
the bars of saloons in this city dur
ing the past year probably is small
er than the average perscn would
think unless they had made an In
yestigation and obtained the figures
Depending upon estimates made
from figures approximately correct
keokuk's fourteen saloons took IN
but little more than 100000 last
year. This amount really is small
when it is compared to the estimates
made for oSaer cities, Between
two millions and two and half mil,
lion dollars were spent in Cedar Rap
ids saloons last year. according to
newspaper reports. There are thirty.
two saloons in that city.
According to one saloonkeeper
here, the amount of money taken in
here last year was but about two
fifths of that taken in during the
construction of the water power.
This man estimated tina. about $780,
600 year was spent in saloons here
at that time He figured that the
average gross income of saloons
here then was between $4,000 and
$4,000. At the present time, he
says. it will run between $4,000 and
s2o. 00O
OF the annual gross income OF 10.
cal saloons at least $4,000 must be
taken in before the saloon pays eS-
penses. Over that amount. the gross
income is about half profit, provided
no salary to the saloonkeeper is paid.
The large part of the 100000 an
nuaay spent in saloons here. is In
turn spent by the saloonkeepsrs in
the city This money is spent on
rent, taxes, wages. beer, cigars. pop
water, light. subscriptions to charity
and other incidentals.

VOTE YES, JUNE 20, At BOND
ELECTION.

Voters OF Independent School Dis,
No. 3, Liberty township, men and WON
en- are going to have another opportun,
ity of declaring that their children
shall have educational opportunities.
This cannot be the claim II the manual
training and domestic economy propo
sition is again defeated. The prepon.
derance Of sentiment In District No. g.
is now in favor Of this project. but in
the other election when this subject
was before the public, those who for
one reason or another, were opposed
to It voted. while those who favored
same remained at home.
As advertised there is $500 needed
for this purpose. The interest on the
same at 4k% Is $157.50. We had en-
rolled In the high school this year
thirty-eight pupils, twenty-6x of them
were nonresident, from whom we col
lected $3.50 per month each, or $819.
Had our school not been approved. our
twelve resident pupils could have gone
some place else at an expense of $3.50
per month to us or 1878. 1919. the
amount collected plus 1878, the amount
saved equals $1,197.
SO from financial standpoint we
should vote these bonds. There is no
alternative but to add these two sub
jects to our course of study or lose
our approval, that is the law. The men
and women Of this district should re-
solve to roll up an overwhelming ma.
jority In favor Of this bond ISSUE Do
your part by voting early and by bring.
