Editor of the Democrat Your com
ments on the Kansas Saloon smashers
case it seems to me is misleadirg
How can Mrs Nation be a law break
er when the law of the state declares
a place used for the sale of intoxicat
ants to be a public nuisance and
shall be abated If the officials elect
ed to enforce the law of the state
neglects or refuses to enforce it what
is to be done Shall Anaichism
reign grow expand until the saloon
with all its dire results has again
fastened its blighting clutch en the
whole state -Mrs Nation it seems
has taken the only course left
The govenor sivs he is powerless
The law is behind- somebody in enforc
ing the law The unwritten law of
public sentiment is behind Mrs
Nation and she is surelv filling a long
felt want in Kansas she is not crazy
but means business and has started a
movement that will rid Kansas of a
set of law breakers thatwill realize
that prohibition prohibits when there
is a heroine behind the law may such
spirits be multiplied and I belive
ifiey will
