"LYK0" NOT LIKED BY
COLORADO DISTRIBUTOR
Head Of Big Drug House in
Denver
Writes Firm Making So-Ca1led
Medicine
It's Sale Violates the Prohibition
Law

"Lyko," a patented medicine con-
tanning almost Is per cent OF alcohol.
cannot be sold in Colorado without
violating the Prohibition law, accord
ing to Mr.. W. A. Hover, president of
the Hover Wholesale Drug Co. The
Hover firm is the largest OF its kind
in the west and Mr.. Hover has noti-
fed the manufacturers OF the nostrun
that he has ordered the product with
drawn from the market.
Mr. Hover, in letter TO G. Arthur
Holloway, superintendent of the Anti
Saloon League of Colorado, says: 81
have made a personal examination of
lIyko' and am strongly inclined of the
opinion that the article should not be
marketed under our Prohibition
/ laws"
On February II Mr. Hover wrote
the manufacturers of "Lyko" as fol-
lows:
"Lyko Medicine Co..
kansas City. Mo.
"Gentlemen-The writer's attention
has been called to the fact that 'Lyko'
is being used in this state as an alco-
holic beverage. Examination OF the
article in question would indicate that
it undoubtedly can be SO used. Such
being the case, it would automatically
come within the provisions of our
Prohibition law, and the sale of the
same, should the question come before
the proper authorities, would undoubt-
edly be prohibited within the state.
After due consideration, we feel that
we are justified in withdrawing the
sale of Lyko' from the market, and
under the circumstances we would
suggest that you advise us as to what
disposition we will make of goods we
have yet remaining in our stock.
Respectfully yours,
wv. A. Hover & Co."

Whisky With Bootleg Value of
$4,000
Shipped to Lonely Desert Station
Seized
Camouhaged in Sacks of Bran and
Corn
WOULD MAKE MOONSHINE
Thought Shippers Intended to Use
Grain
WOULD MAKE MOoNSHINE
In the Manufacture OF Moonshine
Whisky

David Gershon, special agent of the
United States Department of Justice.
and his assistant, on February seized
shipment OF whisky consigned to
Mounds, Utah, with bootleg value of
twenty-five thousand dollars.
The booze was shipped from St.
Joseph, Missouri, and concealed in
240 sacks of bran and 90 sacks of
corn. The capture was made after
the officer had lain in waiting several
days until the arrival of the car Two
men alleged to have been instrumental
in shipping the liquor are now under
arrest and it is believed that others
will be apprchended soon.
Investigation has established the
fact that six thousand dollars was sent
from some point in Utah to two of
the conspirators in St. Joseph with
which to purchase the liquors.
Mounds is lonely station in the
desert southwest of Salt Lake and it
Is DtltNtu W HdNE uCth tile lllGullOh
of the gang of law breakers to boot
leg the liquors in the coal mining
towns within easy radius of the desert
station. 1t is also believed to have
been the intention of the gang to have
used the bran and corn in the making
of moonshne whisky, setting up a
still in the mountains not far from the
station where the car was dropped.
The car and its contraband were
brought TO Salt Lake at the direction
OF the officer and the liquors will be
held as evidence for the forthcoming
trial. The brar and corn have been
conhscated by the Rio Grande Rail-
road and will &c sold for freight
charges. The capture is one Of the
most important ever made by local
agents OF the Department OF Justice.

GENERAL WOOD SAYS
PROHIBITION WORTH
MANY TIMES WAR COST

Speaking in Chicago recently.
General Wood declared that
Prohibition measures in con-
nection with the army were
Gods own blessing" stating
that so per cent of the vice was
on the heels of rum. IF the
war did nothing else than give
us a dry country, it was worth
a dozen times what it cost" he
said. He attributed the good
condition of the returning men
to Prohibition. moral and physi-
cal docency, and military train
ing.

DYING BUT NOT DEAD

These propagandists; these liquor
men, are awfully jealous OF the
rights of the home They, who have
ruined more homes than any other
one influence, are wonderfully Jealous
in their pleas for personal liberty and
the rights OF the individual. They
are smart, too. in the presentation of
their side OF the case, Their argu-
ments have the ring Of sincerity.
Some OF them really sound plausible.
But back of it all is their purpose
to continue their damnablc business.
to thwart the will of the people. to
set at raught the highest power of the
United States--tbe constitution.
We have said the liquor fight is not
ovcr--the liquor interests are not
dead. They are drying. but they are
not dead--Nandalia Union

OLD BOOZE

(Walt Mason in Chicago News
Old Booze is dead. SO toll the knell
for this old maudlin knave; the
mourners raise a joyful yell as they
stand blythe grave Old Booze hung
on with teeth and nails, he tried to
dodge the tomb; he hoped to sell his
gins and ales until the crack OF doom.
He hoped to do his ancient task till
Father Time is gone; but we've out
grown the jug and flask, outgrown the
demiiohn. Old Booze is dead, at rest
he lies, cashed in beyond recall; he
never helped man to rise, but made
million fall. Old Booze will sleep
beneath the loan until the bright sun
pales; he never built toiler'S home,
but he filled many jails. Old Booze
has crossed the great divide to see
what's doing there; and we'll have less
OF suicide, and less OF black despair.
And We'll see less of women's tears,
OF children needing bread, of wages
gone for foaming beers, since Old
Man Booze is dead He'll dish no
more the poison drink to knock the
good man down; his funeral would
make you think circus is in town.
The sections chortle as they work and
dig the clafnmy clay and in the shad-
ow of the kirk the pastor yells "Hoo-
rayw The undertaken is on hand,
with festive Tits and runes. and by the
fence the village band is playing rag
time tunes.

Liberty Bonds Secretary OF Treas
ury Carter Glass on February IA Wig
orously denounced this slogan, IL
said
1t is inconceivable that no mat
ter what the difference of opinion
may be regarding Prohibition this
great nation or any part of it has
fallen to such depth in the social
scale that it could be suggested
even that a man should subordi-
nate his love OF country to his ap-
petite for drink to the extent of
even thinking of, much less refus-
ing to aid the forthcoming Lib

l do not want to be unrcasona-
BILE or say anything of a harsh
nature, but l do not believe any
man who would do such a thing
deserves a vote or to share the
inestimable blessings of our re-

think there will be a speedy reac-
ton from that thought if it really
has taken possession of the minds
of any community of the country.
! think the men have suggested
such thing will soon feel heartily
ashamed of themselves.
The laboring people of America
have demonstrated their patriot
ism and l do not believe the
thoughtful element among them
would be willing to mar the fine
record they have made during the

questionable enterprise as would
be involved in a movement of the
kind indicated.
Yes, labor has made a wonderft
record during the war in the name
in which it stuck Loyalty to its task i

one moment did it swerve or falte

willing TO put the beer key ahead {

There is no question about the pa
triotism OF the rank and file of Amer

question about the disloyaity of tn
brewing interests in this country.
is a matter of record that they ful
nished much of the money which wa
used by the kaiser's chief ally, tn
German-American Alliance, in distrit
uting pro-German literature and CAT

FRANK CRANE SAYS:

The passage OF the Prohibi-
ton amendment was a crafty
ing proof that this free and lib
erty-loving democracy is capa-
bic of limiting its liberty when
necessary, capable of discipline
and self-restraint.
1t means that democracy in
America has reached maturity;
America has come of age"

The upper house of the Rhode
Island Legislature has decided to
keep company with the senate OF Con-
necticut and has emphatically refused
to vote for ratification of the federal
Prohibition amendment. In taking
this attitude Rhode Island is simply
emphasizing its ancient tendency, con-
sistently followed throughout its his
tory, toward unenlightened Stubborn
ness.--Bloomington CID Paragraph.

y Undoubtedly Prohibition will work
great change in the public life OF our
larger cities. The wealth which has
found its way into the saloon will now
find its way into the making OF bet
ter streets, the building OF better
homes, into better parks. Human ma
ture is not going to be changed, how
ever. Prohibition does not furnish a
panacea nor a cure-ali for all human
ills. But its coming marks a great. a
vital, and far-reaching step in the
efforts of the worlds greatest democ-
racy to improve the conditions under
which its people must livc.-Shelby-

"The moral war, which paralleled
and even antedated the bloody one in
its formative and creative causes, was
brought to an end almost as suddenly
and to some people almost as unex-
pectedly as the so-called world war.
They are both over now, thanks be to
God. The years 1918 and 1919 will
be forever memorable on this account,
and when this generation and many
succeeding ones shall have passed
away it will be written down by the
wise ones a thousand years hence
that, truly, There were giants in
