BEER FLOOD IN "DRY" KANSAS

Perhaps if it hadn't been for a suit
in court, the entire United States
might never have learned of the ex-
uaordinary thirst of little Wier City,
in prohibition Kansas.
The following from the Buffalo
IN. " Enquirer has caused some
chagrin among citizens who are try
ing to prove that Kansas is as dry"
as the Congressional Record:
The appended dispatch, clipped
from the New York World, is highly
Illuminating and will no doubt be
read with much joy by the advocates
of national, statewide and worldwide
prohibition:
Alleging JhaI 90 'aIloduo OF peeI
were sold at Wier City, in the north
part of Cherokee county, during the
past five years, and claiming that he
is entitled to commission on all
sales, Mike Simone OF that place has
brought suit against the Dick Broth
ers Quincy Brewing Co., of Kansas
City, Mo-, for the collection of $l2,-
600, charging that the commissions
amounted to at least that sum-"

the above dispatch, the revelations are
somewhat astonishing. Wier City,
