WAR ON BUFFETS.
Anti-SaIoon League Issues Bulletin to
Railroad Men.

Railroad Men.
A fight is being waged in New York
by the Anti-SalOon league against
drinking on dining cars in that state.
A recent bulletin, copies of which
have been received in Topeka, says:
1.-The question of practicability is
not involved. Various far western
roads have stopped the sale of liquor
on trains or will do so on January l
Action on this question was taken by
the roads leading out of Chicago and
st. Louis some time ago. Two of the
largest and best known railway sys-
TENS in the United States, operating
from New York, the New Haven and
the Pennsylvania, have already taken
this action.
stopping the sale of liquor on
trains will cause displeasUre to some,
but continued it will be an offense
to many mere Public sentiment has
reached the point in some states where
even the drinking of liquor on trains
is prohibited. And yet women and
children who would not desire or he
permitted 10 visit saloons, are fire.
quently compelled either to go hun
CRY or else, in what are practically
barrooms on wheels, to witness drink
ing scenes and smell the odor of al
coholic liquor"
This condition, as described by the
New York Temperance bulletin, does
not exist in Kansas. Diners and buffet
cars do not serve intoxicants while
passing through the state and it is a
violation of law to do any drinking
on q train.
