Tom C. Rye, Governor of Tennessee,
says:
"Highest amount of revenue receiv-
ed from liquor traffic in one year since
1910, $334,000. This decreased to
$476 for 1916. We have lost it and
we the glad and submit, this as proof
of prohibition in Tennessee. Debt Of
Tennessee is largely relic of Civil War
and days of reconstruction and none
of it the result of prohibition. Ten
nessee is spending 1-3 of its gross rev.
enue for school purposes, is building
more and better school houses, more
and better roads, taking better care of
her insane and other unfortunates than
ever in her history. Since the forward
law enforcement of the past year
crime has been reduced in our cities.
The streets are free or drunkenness
and safe for women and children. Ev-
erybody who wants it has job and
deposits have increased enormously,
and all desirable property formerly
occupied for saloon purposes has been
acl orbed for legitimate business and
none save older citizens can point out
where saloons were. The atmosphere
is cleaner, property more valuable, life
safer, people more prosperous, and
happier, public morals upon a higher
plane and churches more progressive
and exective under prohibition. These
facts cannot be emphasized too strong

Watch for Bands on Wild Ducks

If you kill or capture a wild duck
bearing an aluminium band around one
leg, having a number on one side and
on the other a statement attesting
that the United States Department of
Agriculture, or the Biological Survey,
be notified you are requested to send
this band at once to the Bureau of
Biological Survey, Washington, D. G.
This band, if accompanied by a
statement as to the date, place and
circumstances under which the bird
was taken, will be of service to the sur

evity of individual ducks and the
routes of migration of the species,
The bands are being attached to con-
siderable numbers of wild duck OF
several species which have been cured
of the duck sickness prevalent around
Great Salt Lake, Utah, and there re-
leased. The department is particu-
larly anxious to secure reports from
these birds to determine their COM
plete recovery from this malady
which has killed hundreds of thous-
ands of ducks in Utah.

Mr.. Gray outlined the growth of the
brick plant in the past year and stat
ed that still larger growth was ex-

of larger dumping ground, and that
the plant desired to purchase from

owned by the plant.
No definite action was taken by the

GOVERNORS OF DRY
STATES RfFUTE CANARDs
Capper, Governor Of Kansas, Tells
What Prohibition Has Done for
His Great State.
TESTIMONY FROM THE SOUTH.
Business Disaster" Cry is Routed by
Facts From Those in Position
to Know Real Truth.

In five different states where phohi-
bition campaigns are being waged the
liquor interests are filling the news
papers with advertisements and SOW
ing the country with circulars telling
how prohibition has ruined Kansas.
They tell that the jails, insane asy-
lums and poorhouses are overfowing,
that there is more crime in Kansas
than in any other state, that the
schools are emptier, that taxes are
higher, that farm lands are lower in
price, that population is falling off
and that a pail of general hard times
hangs over the state.
Governor Capper, of Kansas, says
of his own State:
81 think one of the greatest blessings
ever bestowed upon this state, and the
law which is doing more to make good
men and women and to bring prosper
ity and happiness to the people of Kan
sas, is the amendment to the constitu-
tion prohibiting the traffic in intoxi-
eating liquors.
at may fairly be said that prohibi-
ton has been on trial in Kansas for a
sufficient time to give adequate evi-
dence of its merits and demerits. And
at the end Of nearly generation un-
der prohibition in this state, it may
truthfully be said that the Prohibitory
Law has never been so we'll enforced
as now, and never so generally approv-
ed by the people of the state.
"The value Of the Kansas orchard,
field and live stock crops of 1915 was
more than 652 million dollars. l do
not claim that the Prohibitory Law is
the sole cause of this great agricul-
tural wealth, but surely this wealth is
evidence that prohibition does not de-
stroy business and the property of
the state, as the liquor interests so ar
IDENTIFY contend.
"And prohibition does prohibit.
Kansas saves 80 million dollars every
year directly through prohibition in
money saved that would be spent for
drink if saloons existed in this state.
The indirect gain is not subject to
compensation, but is certainly greater
still.
SIN short, prohibition is an unquali-
fled success in Kansas, and our people
would not think for one moment Of
going back to the saloon.
every respectfully,
"Arthu-a Capper, Governor"

H. H. Hatfield, governor of West
Virginia, sets forth the sentiment of
his fellow citizens thus:
"There has been wodnerful i'm
provement in general moral and in
dustrial conditions in West Virginia
under prohibition. There has been
great decrease in number Of arrests
made in this state, also in number Of
persons admitted to insane asylums.
l am thoroughly convinced that pro-
hibition is meritorious and am sure
if West Virginians voted again upon
proposition there would be no ques-
ton but the people would indicate
people are heartily in favor of it,
Personally, | am unhesitatingly in
favor if prohibition. The situation
in this state has been grossly misrep-
resented by the liquor interests"
