. The claim that prohibition would ob
literate crime is based on ignorance.
Kansas has more than three prison
I' " ,
ers to Nebraska's one. North Dakota
, has more crime than South Dakota.
The United Census Bulletin for 190-1-
- shows that Kansas had over fifty-two
_ . paupers to every 1,000 of population , ,
while Nebraska had but forty-three to
every 1,000 of population. .
From Adams county we get the fol-
lowing : "Of the sixteen patients sent
to the insane asylum from this county
. .
the last year , none went ( insane as a
. direct result of the use of liquor. "
During the decade from 1880 to
_ 1890 the increase of population in Ne-
braska was 134.06 per cent. In Kan-
sas during the same p'erio.d the in-
crease of population was but 43.27
per cent.
Speaking of insanity and us relation
to . the drink habit , 'the clerk of the
district court of Custer county writes :
"As a matter of fact I do not recall
a single case during the six years I
have been in this office in which in-
sanity was caused by the use of
liquor. "
Five male' and two feiiiale patients
were admitted to the asylum from
Clay county last year. Regarding
. these cases , the clerk of the district
court writes : "None of the insane per-
sons sent to the asylum from this
county - during the last two years : were
found to have become insane . from the
i
S use of liquor. "
Comparing the popular'vote for
. president in 1884 and 1S3S , we find
that during the four , /ears Nebraska's
. , incicase in voting population was
mere than double that of Kansas. : : The
increase in Iowa under prohibition was
only 8 per cent during the quadren- -
riium ; while in Minnesota for the same
. period it was 40 p J' ] r cent , or 5. t.o. 1.

IIa lcy's comet may now be
seen on' the evening horizon after
sunset , it having passed the sun
yesterday , and . the much dreaded
tail of the comet swept the earth
without a ripple or a sign of it's
presence. Thus , . the much talked
of world contact poisonous gasses" !
from the comet proves again that
scientific calculations and investi
gations are entitled to credit.
Dr. B. C. Ilydo of. Kansas City ,
Mo. : , was found guilty of murder
in the first degree by the jury af -
ter deliberating from Friday nightI I I
until Monday morning , and their
I
calin and cool deliberations for
I
that length ] of : time seems to es
tablish the guilt of the defendant
who seems to have coolly and de
liberately planned the destruction
of his wife's family. Yet the wife
appears to have stuck to him
through it all and was at his side
during the trial , assisting as best
she could in influence and testi- I
mony to clear 'her husband from
guilt of murder of father and
uncle when strong evidence point-
ed to his premeditated designs.
Such filial devotion is not expected
in woman bufe- rarely is found
otherwise where there is true love
between husband and wife in ordi-
nary cases of criminality. She
should forget her love and devo-
tion for the conspirator against
her own flesh and blood. Learn
to hate him ; ' go back to her sor- , ,
sowing mother and try to com- I
fort her , who avenged the deed
that broke family ties and sent
loved ones to an untimely grave ;
become again a dutiful daughter
and cheer her declining years ; as
best she can and atone in part for
the afiliction her head-strong life
has brought to the family circle. .
