Governor F. M. Byrne of South Dakota
“I want you to know that I believe
in the water wagon," declared Gov
ernor Byrne of South Dakota in a
recent address in Mitchell, S. D.
“I never heard anyone offer what
seemed to me a single reason for a
saloon. I know a good many reasons
why we should not have it. We look
upon the saloon as outside of legiti
mate business, an outlaw, that re
quires special regulations and a per
mit which has come to be termed a
license.
“I have given the most careful con
sideration to our prison population and
have examined with as much care as
possible the history and records of
those unfortunate people confined
there. I am convinced that the de
linquency of approximately 70 per
cent is directly due to drink, and many,
many more to its indirect influence and
effect. In fact it is rarely that 1 find a

“In fact and in truth, were it not
for the effects of intoxicating liquor,
directly or indirectly, the cells of our
prison houses would mold and decay
for want of occupants, and we literally
might tear down our prison walls. The
cases of individual prisoners are con
stantly coming before me and it is
remarkable to note the steady recur
rence of the same strain, from every
angle, from the judge on the bench,
from the attorneys prosecuting and de
fending, from the peace officers and
from the prisoners themselves, the
ever-recurring refrain that^ liquor is
the cause of the downfall.”
Governor George W. Hays of Arkansas
Governor Hays of Arkansas is an
other enthusiastic worker for state
wide prohibition. When he signed the
prohibition bill passed by the legis
lature, he said:
“I believe the most manly act of my
life, an act that will mean much to me,
to my conscience, to my wife, to my
two boys, and to the people of the
state to which I owe so much, was the
act I performed when I placed my
signature to the bill which gave Ar
kansas state-wide prohibition.”
uobernor L. M. Hanna of North Dakota
“I wish to say that I am in favor of
prohibition. I believe in it. We have
had prohibition stamped in the consti
tution of the state of North Dakota
since statehood. I have lived here
during all the years since statehood,
twenty-six years, and I can say that I
believe that prohibition has been a
vital force for the betterment of the
state, both morally and financially.
“I believe that prohibition has done
much for North Dakota, both from a
moral and financial standpoint. The
law is respected and easier of en
forcement each year, and I am satis
fied that the people of the state will
never repeal it.”
Governor Arthur Capper of Kansas.
“If it is good to live in Kansas it is
because the people of Kansas have made
it so. Kansas people have never dodged
a difficulty nor refused to face an issue.
Kansas now is a good place in which to
live largely because thirty years ago
we dared to make the open saloon an
outlaw, because we were not afraid to
attack a curse as ancient as human
history and put it from us forever. 1
am immensely proud of the fact thaf
Kansas has more than half a million
boys and girls who never saw an oper
saloon. And now that national prohi
bition and world-wide prohibition ar«
coming just as surely as tomorrow’:
sunrise, Kansas has done, is doing anc
will do more to bring this great bless
ing about than any other state.”
Governor Moses Alexander of Idaho.
“The greatest stride forward in th<
history of Idaho is probably the pro

JOHN BRENNAN
The Man Who Put the “Bee”
in Business Wants to
See You.
Mail Order Houses Spreading Diseases
Women and girls in Mexico, China
and Negros, Japs, all patronize the
catalogue houses ordering out stock
ings, underwear, gloves, corsets, etc.,
on approval. Most of them wear them
once or twice to a negro dance or
Chinese ball and maybe the Ak-Sar
Ben balls in Omaha, then they are re
turned and sent out somewhere else
till they finally land them on some one
or other. Women and girls and child
ren who would not think of eating off
a hobo’s plate, washed or not washed,
will send and get clothes which some
Negro wore to a camp meeting or
chautauqua. Bed clothes, blankets,
sent from one dirty place to another
may finally be bought by the Queen
Bee of the Village. Sometimes they
use them a week or so in some sickness
and rather than bum them send them
back and trade for groceries or their
money.
One of the shipping clerks tells of
instances to his own knowledge where
goods were returned at six different
times before they finally stayed sold.
But as long as we don’t know it
what is the difference.
I have goods that are just as good
as the catalogue houses, sometimes at
a good bit less money. I am in shape
to meet any. price they can give and I
will gladly figure your bill before you
send for it.
I will also figure any store bill for
you. And if you have your store
keeper itemize the bill so we can tell
the size, color, weight, etc., I can soon
convince you that it will pay you to
send the dray after the goods.
You are specially requested to
come and see my line of Furs. This
is the last week I will offer them to
you.
Now is a good time to buy corn and
tomatoes by the case.
It’s also a good time to buy soap and
rice.
Remember that when you buy any
underwear, stockings, shoes, corsets,
from me that no hobo—Chinaman—
Negro or Jap has tried them on or
wore them to the dances.
Every Irishman should do all in
their power to help Germany in this
war. If Germany is wiped out now by
Great Britain, Great Britain will turn
and help Mexico and Japan lick us.
We will never have peace on earth till
England is wiped out for good.
W. H. Green of Creighton hit the
nail on the head when he says. Give
the people the same goods at the same
prices as the catalogue houses and
they will not send away.
I guess most of the people around
here know by this time that I am do
ing it.

Idaho will prosper without saloons
more than it ever did with them.
There will be nearly a million dollars
kept in the state that is now being sent
out annually for alcoholic beverages,
and that amount of money will circu
late around the state in other channels,
with the result that better homes will
be built, there will be happier children
in the schools, more devout worship
ers in the churches and a more pros
perous people generally.”
Gov. George A. Carlson of Colorado.
“No law with greater possibilities
for good has been written so far in
Colorado. When enforced, this law
will stop a heavy drain on the tax
payer. It will add much in safety to
every home where boys and girls are
growing up. It will bring joy and
hope to many a wife and mother who
heretofore have not had thefir full
share. It will put shoes and groceries
in places where hunger has sometimes
gnawed and eold too often pinched. It
will make substantial business more
substantial. Colorado people will feel
again that the waste and danger and
the pain and madness occasioned by
this great vice are necessary for them
to live, or to be happy or prosperous.
We should begin at once to plan
definitely to replage the saloon with
the gymnasioum, the lecture hall and
the public library.”

Lindquist & Palmer
Maine for Prohibition, was an editor
of a paper in Portland that was for
political reasons mildly opposed to it,
I had a conversation with him that ran
something like this:
“Where were you born?”
“In a little village about sixty miles
from Bangor.”
“Do you remember the conditions of
things in your village prior to pro
hibition?”
“Distinctly. There was a vast
amount of drunkenness, and conse
quent disorder and poverty.”
“What was the effect of prohi
bition?”
“It shut up all the rum-shops, and
practically banished liquor from the
village. It became one of the most
quiet and prosperous places on the
“How long did you live in the village
after prohibition?”
“Eleven years, or until I was twenty
one years of age. Then I went to
Bangor.”
“Do you drink now?”
“I never have tasted a drop of liquor
in my life.”
“Why?”
“Up to the age of twenty-one I
never saw it, and after that I did not
care to take on the habit.”
That is all there is to it. If the
boys of the country are not exposed to
the infernalism, the men are very sure
not to be. This man and his school
mates were saved from rum by the
fact that they could not get it until
they were old enough to know better.
Few men are drunkards who know not
the poison until they are twenty-one.
It is the youth the whisky and beer
men want.—North American Review.

PLENTY OF PROOF.
From People You Know—From O’Neill
Citizens.
The greatest skeptic can hardly fail
to be convinced in the face of evidence
like this. It is impossible to produce
better proof of merit than the testi
mony of residents of O’Neill, of people
who can be seen at any time. Read
the following case of it:
Mrs. Della Shaw, O’Neill, says:
“I have always found Doan’s Kidney
Pills as represented. I have used
them occasionally, when my kidneys
have become disordered and I have had
lameness in my back or have felt run
down. They have always relieved me,
so I know they can be depended upon.”
