NO HOPE IN KAN.
Liquor Lovers VIII Never Get
Beer and Light Wines.
Federal Court Rulings Won't
Affect Law of This State.
HAWKES. GIVES OUT OPINION
Each State Allowed To Make

Drink With .OO1 Per Cent AL
cOhOI Unlawful in Kansas.

The department of justice may ulti-
inately hold that beer and light wines
are not under the liquor ban. The
United States Supreme court may up
bold that view. But it means nothing
N the puritan life OF Kansas. In this
state the lid will not tilt the fraction
! Of an inch
q Kansas is to adhere strictly and re-
/. Iigiously to her sacred bone dry law.
\ The man. who owns even the portion
Of a bottle Of demon liquor is subject
. to a term in the donjon keep, And
Il will be ever thus and possibly more
so. according to Judge s. y. Hawkes.
. assistant attorney general.
Not a Chance In Kansas.
Under the Kansas law the possess
= sion of liquors or malts is positively
and absolutely prohibited. II is IL
legal to transport II into Kansas by
rail. motor car. on foot or horseback.
And the possession of any wine,
( whisky, malt or other vinous extracts
| as construed and interpreted by the
courts of the land. is a violation of the
statutes made and provided therein.
The law Is clear, emphatic, a bit
drastic and very, very final.
This law is upheld by the state and
United States supreme court decision.

and near liquor question. Kansas Will
stand pat-and also progressive-on

" Kansas Her Own Judge.
N 1T doesn't make any difference
Inwhat the department of justice may
nisay or what the supreme court of the
United States may rule regarding the

ulation of liquor traffic has been held

disturbed in the least The bone dry

and any rejoicing which may come in
other states cannot apply to the thirsty
pilgrims of Kansas"
Provisions of the Kansas bone dry
law make mere possession of liquor
by individual, firm or corporation
prima face evidence of violation
Under this law railroads and express

1t makes no difference Judge

as to the amount or percentage oil
