with the wet and Sty question.
Kail City Is a division point on the
Missouri ruts' flc and there aro located
small repair shops. It Is also the point
on the Nebraska lines where train crew
change hands. As a result ot all this
large number of the people of the town

For more than fifty years saloons had
existed In Falls City. At tho recent
election the peoplo voted the saloons out
nnd the town went dry. The saloon men
