BRAND ISLAND Ft, M VVOLCOTT MERCHANT, CENTRAL CITY HON, OTTO ZUILOW MAYOR, SCHUYLER The Records In the same article tlie Topeka Journal states that the INCOMPLETE record of shipments for 1915 shows that citizens of Topeka ordered and received during that year a total of 160,169 quarts of various kind of liquors. Tlio rct&loir's attention is called to tho significant fact that these nro tho present conditions In Topeka after 05 years of constant effort under stato Prohibition' to compel tlio pcoplo to discontinue tlio uso of liquors. The 'Actual Condition: Prohibition fails to remove the opportunity and the desire on the part of the people to purchase and to use alcholic beverages. Denied the opportunity to purchase from manufact urers and dealers operating under license with in the state, resort is had to express shipments to bootleggers and to "alley joints." vThe Gliaplain's Testimony: Extract from an addreu by Harmon Allen, Chaplain of the Kansas I'eultenllary, printed on pare 39 ol tho tint Biennial Report ot the Kantas SUIo&oiril ot Cot rectlons. "About 37 ver cent of the orison vopula- tion are Hooters from other states. Most of them came bv the dooe and liauor routes. It must be confessed T ' that a large percentage of Kansas citizens incarcerated here came by the same route. So long as the desire to purchase and to use exists, better results are achiev d by REGU LATING the manufacture and sale of alcholic beverages than are secured by enacting a state Prohibition law.
