RAISE new POINT
Bone Dry Law May Help Out
Liquor ViOlatOrs.
Lawyers Contend II Knocks Out
Penitentiary Sentence.

The bone dry law may prove boon
to persistent liquor violators thru
which they may escape a penitentiary
sentence. During the present term of
the district court it will fall to the lot
of Judge Whitcomb to decide this
point of law.
There are three liquor cases on the
docket in which the county has pre-
pared felony charge. punishable by a
state prison term, for persistent vio-
lations of the liquor law. The first
case appeared on the criminal docket
today in which Bee Adams is the de-
PENDANT.
Elisha Scott Topeka attorney. i'm
mediately raised the point which will
decide the disposition of all three cases
following Judge Whitcomb's ruling
John ]. Schenck and Tinl<ham Neale
who are watching with interest for
Judge Whitcomb's decision in the
Adams case.
In a motion to quash, Scott main
tains that in no section of the bone
dry statute is state prison mentioned
as a punishment for violation of any
section. A prison term and a fine
are the only punishments provided il
the stringent law made by the state
legislature.
Where no sales are proven and
liquor is merely found in the posses
sion of any person, even if he has
been found guilty of liquor violations
Scott contends that under the Intent
of the bone dry law the man escapes
a state prison sentence. Robert D
Carver, county attorney, maintain:
that the statute states that it is add
tional and supplemental to all Other
laws and that the felony charge may
be as applicable now as in the past
In these three cases, liquor has
i merely been found in the possession
of those charged with persistent VIC
lations. No sales have been proven

TO PREVENT FIRES
Observance National Day, October 8.
Turnout Kansas.

There will be a more general OBJ
servance of national fire prevention
day in Kansas this year than ever be-
fore since the custom was instituted,
unless all signs fail Practically every
city and county superintendent in the
state is cooperating in the distribu-
ton among their teachers of a bulle-
tin furnished by the state fire mar
shall This bulletin contains material
for a program consisting of recita-
tons, songs and subject matter for es-
says and talks on fire prevention, to
be used on fire prevention day. Tues
day, October 9, the anniversary of the
great Chicago fire. Already orders
have been received by the department
for about $4,000 copies:
Posters calling attention to fire
prevention day are being sent out to
every postoffice, mayor. fire chief and
newspaper in the state with the re-
quest that they be posted in some
public place.
Fire departments are requested to
put on a demonstration run as a part
of the days arrangements. City Off
Gals are requested to inspect their fire
fighting equipment with a view to
bringing it up to standard if it is
found to be deficient. Only recently
small town in Kansas suffered a Sc
we're fire loss because when the alarm
was sounded the apparatus was found
to be unfit for use A general clean
up of all streets, alleys and yards is
suggested, especially the removal of
all weeds and tall grass. Private in
dlviduals are urged TO inspect their
flues on that day or before fall fires
are started and to put their cellars

Ministerial Union Decides on CeIebra.
ton of Anniversary in Topeka.

The four-hundredth anniversary of
the climax of the work of Martin
Luther will be celebrated in every
church in the city the last of this
month, it has been decided at a meet
ing of the Ministerial union. The
work of Martin Luther will be re-
called from practically every pulpit of
the city during the last week of the
month.
Perhaps the largest feature of the
church program in celebration of the
Reformation will be a mass meeting
October 81 at the city auditorium.
Tentative plans call for a united dem
onstration on that date as the ami
versary of the mailing of the ninety
five theses on the door of the Castle
church, al Wittenberg. The program
calls for a celebrated church speaker
for this occasion, but as Yet no names
have been suggested. A community
sing of the Luther hymns will also
be on the program. Then another fea-
ture of the celebration will be a Grand
Reformation oratorio to be given by
the local church men and women.
Sunday, October 20, has been des-
lgnated az the day on which every
minister of the city will preach on
the works of Martin Luther and on
the reformation. The services will be
held in the morning

LOOKING INTO FUTURE
United States Not Lax on Prepared

Paris, Oct. 1.-THE Temps regarding
the mission given Col E. NJ. House in
gathering historical data on the en-
trance of America into the war says:
President Wilson thinks it is i'm
possible to govern without foreseeing
and that one cannot foresee without
studying. While the United states
is still engaged in building its powerful
war machine its president creates an
instrument that will serve later to pre-
pare for peace. This demonstration
of study is coIfided to Colonel House,
a sagacious man who keeps himself
outside of politics.
Thus the knowledge of all the
specialists may be centralized and
elaborated in accord with the national
interest and placed in the hands of the
government Happy organizers are
they who will build the future,

After leaving Bucharest, Duras

where an American embassy employe
saw him on the Nevski Prospekt es-

administration law. Trouble con-
fronting Kansas grain men in secur-

caused trouble in Kansas One ruling
by the district director provided
against shipments of grain to any
point except Kansas City, the zone
