Now AT KEHYoNs THROAT.

Senator Kenyon, having announced
that he will not vote for the covenant
with it's No. 10 provision that pledges
the United States to engage in every
war that might arise in the world over
boundary lines, the Des Moines Reg
lister turns upon and rends him. The
Register is running smuck among re-
publican senators. So far Senator
Kenyon had escaped the knife, perhaps
because the Register has always taken
the supreme credit to itself Of having
made Kenyon senator" Now at the
first intimation that the senator Is not
prepared to bend the submissive hinges
of the knee to the entire Wilson House
program the Register turns juramen-
tado and seeks to mangle that which it
has claimed with a SNUG, proprietary
smile as it's own creation.
However, Iowa is not likely to make

ence will follow the order.

MOHAMET BLAMED FOR
LOSS OF WAR

Constantinople, May, (By Mail.)-
The religious Turk is very much dis
couraged. The mosques are not as
we'll patronized as formerly for Ma
homet is blamed for the loss of the
war. Turks whose dogs were taken
away from them and dumped on an
island in the Marmora Sea there to
starve with ten OF thousands OF other
Constantinople mongrels some years
ago see in Turkeys present plight a
just Judgment from Mahomet. Those
who prophesied at the time that the
Wholesale massacre of the dogs would
bring bad luck to Turkey are now
wagging their heads sagely and recall
ing their prophecies. ,--aa~-
The Mosque of Ahmed is deserted.
The Germans when they left carried
off all the precious rugs and the faith
full refuse to enter the mosque on the
ground that it has been profaned and
is unclean. More than 300 deaths
from cholera took place in this mos
que during the war.
The Howling Dervishes in particu-
lar declare that there is no hope for
Turkey unless the Great Prophet,
Wilson interviews. Recently the
American Red Cross Mission for Ru-
mania stopped off at Constantinople
and, while waiting for their boat to
coal, visited the Howling Dervishes.
With hot Goals in his mouth and
with his priests sticking knives
through their cheeks in time-honored
fashion, the high priest called down
the blessings of Mahomet upon Ameri-
ca and maledictions upon all the enc
mics of Turkey. A young Turk trans
lated the Head Howler's lamentations
and blessings.
Memet vi. the Sultan, has not lost
faith in Mahomet, however. Each
Friday morning he visits the YildeZ
Mosque to pray. His visit is a cere-
mony attended not only by thousands
of Turkish onlookers and guards but
also by hundreds of Allied officers
all equipped with caremas of every
size and description.
American army officers and Red
Cross girls now find it easy to visit
the mosques, St Sophia is open to
all corners and the American army
man is not forced even to take off his
shoes He merely slips them into a
pair of huge slippers and shuffles
about on the precious carpets which
are aligned in the general direction of
Mecca

OASIS OF THE WEST TO
ENTER THE DRY RANKS
MANUFACTURE AND SALE OF L.
QUOR TO CEASE.

. Cheyenne, Wyo., June 20.-Wyom-
ing, long the oasis of this section of
the west, will enter the ranks of pro-
hibition states On July l. Sale and
manufacture of liquor within the state
will cease on that date regardless of
whether national prohibition is effec-
tive in the nation
Under terms of the constitutional
Amendment adopted by the voters at
last Novembers election, Wyoming
would have gone dry January 1, 1920.
When the legislature met last jan
uary however, it was deemed advis-
able to put the state law into effect
July |, this year, at the same time
that it appeared national war time
prohibition would be effective A law
was passed by the Legislature uthoriz-
ing this.
In addition to the power placed by
state law in the hands of state pro-
hibition commissioner there will be
a Law Enforcement League, privately
financed and privately operated to en-
force the new law. This league al
ready has begun the work of keeping
Wyoming free of illegal manufacture
and sale of liquor after July l.
State house gossip is that Fred L.
Crabbe, now superintendent of the
Wyoming Anti-Saloon League, will be
chosen Prohibition Commissioner.
"Not only bootlegging but CONNER
cial traffic in liquor must cease in ac-
cordance with the wishes of the peo-
pie" said Mr. Crabbe in a statement
to the Associated Press. THE voters
gave the largest per capita dry MAORI
ty of any state in the Union and they
are going to see that the law will be
enforced The law as passed by the
legislature is one of the most drastic
Of it's kind"
Saloons in Wyoming now pay COM
bined revenue of 100000 for privi-
lege of operating. In the face of the
approaching dry spell' breweries
are turning to other lines. Most of
them will manufacture soft" drinks
Data gathered in the three largest
cities in the state--Sheridan Casper
and Cheyenne-shows virtually every
barroOm and saloon has been spoken
fer by proprietors of candy shops, soft
drink parlors, cafes, music stores and
res taurants.
Saloon men are clening out their
stocks as rapidly as possible. 1t is
stated with authority that respectable
citizens of the state who lay in mod
crate supply OF liquor now for their
own use after July l will not be mo-
Tested, but the authorities have an
nounced there will be eternal and vigil
liant warfare waged on the man who
buy now to sell later
Mail order business practically is
at standstill, the Reed Law having
stopped much of the Importation into
nearby states.
