Michigan Business Man Says Prohi-
bition Will Succeed

What Prohibition Is being assailed
by smany citizens in the East should
NATURALLY be expected says I. N.
Mplkey, of the Mulkey Salt Co. alt
is history repeating itself. It has
been SO in every state that adopted
Prohibition previous to the national
amendment TO The constitution.
Il was resident of Kansas when
Prohibition was adopted in 1881. Ny
experience with local option by
towns and cities in my native state,
Illinois, had left me with the opinion
thas high license was the only way
of controlling the liquor traffic.
Hence | registered my vote against
Prohibition. Following its adoption,
Ia 4,essness rcighed such as no sts.e
ever experienced Public opinion
was so evenly balanced that en-
forccment was defed. Saloons ran
wide open in all cities. officers of
the law refused to attempt enforce
ment, iures with absolutely proven
cases would bring in yerdicts of not
guilty.
The Democrats at their next con-
yention after the adoption OF Prohi-
bition, nominated George w. Click
for governor upon wet platform,
and with the assistance OF the So
called whisky Republicans, defeated
the apostle OF Prohibition OF the day.
John z. St. John, Republican. Mr..
Click was the first and | think the
last Democratic governor elected in
the state, but he tailed to have a
legislature with him. Each sue
ceeding election year the Democrats
met in convention and demanded the
re-submission OF the Prohibition
amendment for another vote, and

DUTY OF EVERY CITIZEN

II required several years to
demonstrate the success of
Prohibition in Kansas. There
was need OF a general develop
ment of public sentiment in
support OF the law, and OF con-
tinually increasing pressure
upon officials 10 the end that
the law might be enforced. But
Prohibition actually came in
Kansas. despite the tremendous
handicaps that existed with wet
states adjacent.
There i no reason TO believe
that Prohibition in tho country
as whole may not come Just
Is it came in Kansas. And enc
OF the best ways 10 make II
reality is for those who regard
II as desirable to lend their
constant sympathy and support
10 the city. state and federal
officials whose duty It is to en-
force the law. Prohibition and
provision for its enforcement
have been made a part of the
constitution and laws Of tho
United States, and it is the
emphatic duty OF every citizen
to obey the law and aid in It's
