LOSS OF ENORMOUS REVENUE AND COST
OF PROHIBITION enforcement BOOSTING
TAXES TO LIMIT OF ENDURANCE, CLAIM

Washington, Mar. 29.-The rela-
ton of national prohibition to taxes
presents some startling features that
deserve the attention of the American
citizen as he pays his first quarterly
tax installment, announced Captain
w. II. Stayton, head of the Associa-
ton Against the Prohibition Amend
ment, in a statement tonight.
These payments, said Captain Stay
ton, go to meet an annual total of
public expenses that has risen to the
enormous figure of $500, 200, 900 con-
stituting n burden that has almost
reached the limit Of endurance. This
burden, he declared, had been in
creased in two directions by the
existing prohibition laws; first, by the
Withholding of enormous revenues
from the Treasury formerly obtained
from the legalized liquor traffic, and,
second, through the great and con-
stantly increasing sums expended
yearly in wholly Intellectual efforts to
enforce the prohibition laws.
According to figures supplied by
the Mechanics and Metals National
Bank of New York, the increased
pace of public expenses has brought
us to a yearly total of seven and one
half billion dollars in taxation said
Captain Stayton. That means that
out of every $4,000 earned in bust
ness and by labor in 1922, $1,000 was
applied in payment of some kind of
taxes. Three-fifths of the total are
absorbed in state and local taxes.
1.-THE national prohibition laws
have swept one of the most import
ant sources of public revenuc that
existed on the statute books of the
country. The annual receipts by the
federal government from this source
ran into hundreds of millions. Rev
enues through licensing gave still
greater sums in the aggregate to the
States, counties and municipalities.
Under various forms of practical
regulation of the liquor traffic, with
out the return of the saloon, these
former sums could be greatly in
creased, amounting to far more than
any relief hat be devised in any
other n by national legislators
for the relief of the people.
Sane revision of the prohibition
enforcement laws would also lift an
enormous and steadily growing item
of expense which the tax payer must
meet in the futile efforts to enforce
prohibition. The prohibitionists start
ed with a demand for 100000 for
enforcement purposes. This amount

DANGER IN DELAY

Kidney Diseases are too dangerous
for Cody people to neglect.
The great danger of kidney troubles
is that they so often get n firm hold
before the sufferer recognizes them.
Health will be gradually u%nderminer.
Backache, headache, ervousness
lameness, soreness, lumbago, urinary
troubles, dropsy, gravel and Bright's
disease may follow as the kidneys get
worse. Don't neglect your kidneys.
Help the kidneys with Doan's
Pills, which are so strongly recon-
mcnded right here in Cody.
Mrs. f. Raines, Rumsey Ave. Cody,
says: 81 had a slight attack of kidney
trouble some years ago. I was lame
and there vas n soreness over my
Kidneys. When l did any STOPPING
or bending sharp pains cut across my
back. I began using Doan's
Pills and one box drove the trouble
away. ! haven't been bothered since,

has since been trebled in direct an.
preparations or demands for appro.
priations. Indirectly, the amount o,
actual expenditures is far greater
through the increased number of fed.
eral judges made necessary through
sumptuary legislation alone, etc. The
states and counties have been called
upon for larger expenditures for the
same purposes. Yet the courts are
congested everywhere, the process of
justice is clogged.
yet this double cost, enormous as
it is, is probably equalled, if not ex-
ceeded, by another form of indirect
loss, namely, that of the drain of
American money by foreign sources,
through the contraband liquor indus
try. No one knows the magnitude of
this drain, but the landing of 100, 600
cases of liquor by rum-running yes
sells on the Atlantic Coast in a single
week gives a faint clew. The farce
of enforcement goes on, but the f.
nancial drain of America, to the bene-
hit of other countries, is unchecked.
The Senate through its ratiica-
ton of the highly ingenious treaty
with Great Britain, permitting Brit
ish vessels to bring in liquor under
seal in return for an extension of the
three-mile limit, adds to the farce.
The Eighteenth Amendment is again
violated, but the Anti Saloon League
expresses complacent satisfaction ov
err this latest and most fragrant form
of qualifications Great Rr;taip
doubtless, will be satisfied as well,
The rum-running enterprises of that
country will continue their highly
lucrative trade with small additional
obstacles. The financial drain here
will become financial increment there,
II it is kept up long enough, the Brit
ish pound should eventually be ex-
changeable for six dollars in Ameri-
can money.
"Sane Legislative regulation of the
liquor traffic would change the whole
situation. Directly and indirectly, il
would result in a transfer from the
debit to the credit side of the Ameri-
can financial ledger of at least ST.
100000, 900 annually. With taxes the
paramount issue. this amount merits
the serious consideration of every
member of Congress, of the strong
bonus advocate, of every business
man, of the farmer looking for a mar
ket for his surplus grain, and, above
all, of the millions of tax payers who
have to shoulder the burden laid on
them by the fanatical prohibitionists."

HOMESPUN POETRY

SUNLIGHT
In Northeast Wyoming, sir,
Cuddled out of sight,
Is a spot of hidden beauty;
We call it Sunlight.
Climb up on Dead Indian, sir,
Look-not so far to the right!
To the left you'll see it, sir;
Yes, that's it-Sunlight!
Do you sec those mountains, sir?
Those rugged signs of might?
Those, sir, surround our valley,
The spot we call Sunlight!
DO you see those green fields, sir?
Don't they look all right?
You bet we've got it all, sir,
Out here in Sunlight!
Here we see the mountain sheep,
The eagle in it's flight.
Anything you want to see?
Well, come to Sunlight!
It's the prettiest spot on earth, sir.
Oh, you don't think I'm right?
Huh! Just you stay a month, sir,
In good old Sunlight.
And then, I'll bet you, stranger,
That you'll be on the fight,
If any ignoramus slams
Good old Sunlight.

HUGE SKELETON
FOUND IN IDAHO

LEWISTOWN, Ida, March 90
A huge skeleton, believed to be that
of a prehistoric human being, has
been discovered in the Salmon river
country, south of here, by two mem
bers of the state highway department
who have brought their find to the
city. The lower jaw and vertebra
will be sent to the Smithsonian Insti-
tute at Washington, d. C. for anal
ysis as to the probable date of exist
ence.
The bones were found in the side
of a cliff at a depth estimated to be
so feet. Nearly the entire skeleton
IA recovered, the excavators pro-
ceeding with more care after deter
mining that the find might prove OF
be of scientific value.
Measuring more than eight feet in
heighth and possessing numerous
strange features, the skeleton has
aroused widespread interest. Three
physicians who examined it pro-
nounced it to be that of a woman.
Belief that the person was of a
herbivorous race has been expressed,
owing to the peculiar formation of the
jaws and teeth. Both the upper and
lower jaws have only 10 teeth each
and all + intact.
