LOOK AT FACTS
IT WOULD BE WELL TO STOP,
LOOK AND LISTEN
BEFORE VOTING.
Kansas is the favorite "dry" ex
ample which the Prohibitionist uses.
The United States Statistical Ab
stracts for 1913 show that Kansas is
far from being the model State that
the uninitiated are apt to believe.
When “dry” Kansas is compared
with the "wet” States some interest
ing figures are revealed. It is also
■ to be noticed that the Prohibitionist
I never shouts of Maine, Georgia, Ten
nessee, Virginia, West Virginia and
other “dry” States, but holds up Kan
sas as the "seventh Heaven.”
Therefore, proof that Kansas is not
' the angel State of America is proof
that no “dry” State holds that posi
tion.
The Anti-Saloon League Year Book
is the acknowledged authority of the
Prohibitionists to show that Prohibit
ion is the State of health and happi
ness and prosperity. This little vol
ume gives many pages of statistics
to prove its claim, and yet some of
the figures, while correct and official,
have been used without realizing
that they prove the contrary of the
text. For instance, Kansas is held
as the model Prohibition State, and
the real land of Canaan among the
ungodly States of the West.
But the editor of the year book did
not select his statistics with care to
demonstrate his assertions. He ar
gues that the health, happiness and
] prosperity of the people are measur
ed by the occupants of the peniten
I fairies, the insane asylums, the poor
houses and the number of children
in the homes that, give a guarantee
against race suicide. After making
this argument so convincing that no
sane man deny it, the Anti-Saloon
League Year Book presents these fig
ures for the year 1910:
Kansas Nebraska
Prisoners per 100,
000 population., 85.4 55.2 ,
Paupers per 100,
000 population.. 43.5 46.2
Insane per 100,000
population . 172.2 167.0
Number of persons
to 100 families.. 427.3 449.0
These figures are strangely confus
ing when taken into consideration
with the text of the argument that
Prohibition is a sure protection
against crime, pauperism, insanity
and race suicide. The first group of
figures show that "dry” Kansas had
more crime and more prisoners in her
penitentiaries and jails than “wet”
Nebraska. The third group shows
that “dry” Kansas had more insane
than “wet" Nebraska.

Navigation opened on May 15 to
Susitna Station. The launch Sea
Lion from Anchorage was the first to
complete a round trip up the river.
There will be an unusual amount
of traffic on the Susitna this year
owing to the extension of work to
the Matanuska Junction-Talkeetna
section of the U. S. railroad. Two
especially constructed boats the B-l
and B-2, arc due at Anchorage any
day now which will be used for this
work.—Seward Post.
