LET EVERYBODY
 LOOK AT FACTS
IT WOULD BE WELL TO STOP, LOOK AND LISTEN
 BEFORE VOTING.

Kansas is the favorite dry" ex- ample which the Prohibitionist uses. The United States Statistical Alb stracts for 1913 show that Kansas is far from being the model State that the uninitiated are apt to believe.
 When dry" Kansas is compared with the wet" States some interest ing figures are revealed. It is also to be noticed that the Prohibitionist never shouts of Maine, Georgia, Ten nessee, Virginia, West Virginia and other "dry" States, but holds up Kan sas as the seventh Heaven"
 Therefore, proof that Kansas is not the angel State of America is proof that no "dry" State holds that posi- tion.
 The Anti-Saloon League Year Book is the acknowledged authority of the Prohibitionists to show that Prohibit ion is the State of health and happi- ness and prosperity. This little vol ume gives many pages of statistics to prove it's claim and yet some of the figures, while correct and official, have been used without realizing that they prove the contrary of the text. For instance, Kansas is held as the model Prohibition State, and the real land of Canaan among the States of the West.
 But the editor of the year book did not select his statistics with care to demonstrate his assertions. He ar gues that the health, happiness and prosperity of the people are measur- ed by the occupants of the peniten- tairies, the insane asylums, the poor houses and the number of children in the homes that give a guarantee against race suicide. After making this argument so convincing that no sane man deny it, the Anti-Saloon League Year Book presents these fig ures for the year 1910:

 These figures are strangely confus- ing when taken into consideration with the text of the argument that Prohibition is a sure protection against crime, pauperism, insanity and race suicide. The first group of figures show that dry" Kansas had more crime and more prisoners iii her penitentiaries and jails than wet" Nebraska. The third group shows that dry Kansas had more insane than wet" Nebraska.

SYNOPSIS.

Mary Page, actress, is accused of the
murder of James Pollock and is defended
by her lover, Philip Langdon. Pollock
was intoxicated. AT Marys trial she ad-
raits she had the revolver. Her maid
testifies that Mary threatened Pollock
with it previously, and Mary's leading
man duplicates Langdon. How Mary dis
appeared from the scene of the crime is a

DOMINICAN REBELS
AGREE TO DISARM

WASHINGTON, Jul; AN agree
ment for disarmament OF Santo Do
minge revolutionists virtually has
been perfected by a peace conference
in which the various Dominican fac
lions were represented. according 10
dispatch to the navy department. to-
day. from Rear Admiral Caperton. The
conference is said TO have paved the
way for suspension Of hosilllties
while further negotiations over the
future form Of the Dominican govern
ment are in progress.
The agreement was. regarded, by
officials here as indicating the col
lapse OF the revolution led by General
Arias. and forecasting an early re-
Storation of peace in the turbulent
little republic so that the contem-
plated new regime, with American
supervision similar to that now eX-
ercised in Haiti soon might be estab-
lished.
Officials were confident tonight that
the resumption OF negotiations would
result in a complete agreement upon
the plan for American direction OF
lection of revenues and disburse-
ments. Proposal Of a new treaty TO
accomplish that purpose is expected
to be one Of the first steps after the
rebels diSarm.
