From another authorita tive Hource i get it that tho coxt () dm police mid militia cHtab linliiiiuiit in ICiiuhiis i only $IO'2,()00 minually while it iis $1,700, 000 in Illinois- 1U tinioH lionvici'uith only about four times great er popiilaliou. "Tho browerH nro wasting lbcir time and their money too in KpoochoH and (loeuineutH trying to arouse public sentiment with reference to pauperism in lCmmas. Fifty-seven of the 105 counties of the slate have no inmates at their poor i'arniH. Cook county alone, with nil its palatial saloons and vibrating -breweries Iiiih a little over five limes iih ninny pauperis than wo have in tho entire Htate of Kansas. The good Htate of Illinois has just 100 per cent more paupoi'H than Iviiiihim, according to population. And I venture to say that Illinois would havo still more were it not for the temperance progroHt she hnn made during the paht few years. I havo hoard a great many mean things Bnid against pro hibition but I have never beforu heard thu charge that it cnunetf pauperism. "I assert that prohibition in tho best friend of education mid that wherever temperance is observed the school shows its high est and best development. We have in our permanent school fund the sum of $10,000,000 drawing interest. With this wo buy the -municipal bonds of our own Htate, deeming them the best se curity. The annual interest on these bonds is enough to pay the present entire stnte debt. Wo nave recently established normal courses in 100 of the 105 counties. During the Inst nine years the enrollment of the statu university haft risen from 1,150 to 'J,0(i:i; tho normal from 1,030 to 'J,S00 mid the agricultural col logo from 870 to 2,102. Ilesides that, 0,000 young men and wo men are attending dcuomiiiutiotial institutions and '1,518 attend ing business colleges. In all 21,000 young men and women are attending colleges within the stato. The value of public school propel ty ha.s advanced from $10,000,000 to .$10,000,000. As a part of our educational Hystoin '.vu havo nearly 700 newspapers and magariues and I am told that 08 per cent of them will not publish tho advertisements of a brewery or a liquor house. Dur ing the first twentyyears of prjiiibitinu illiteracy was reduced III por cent. It is -10 per cent l.wer than Illinois mid the next census reports will give the state first place in education. Tho youth of Kansas has his eye fixed far above the horizon of tho saloon. I assert (hat the death rate in Kansas is lower than that of any other state or nation on earth mid that our condition in this respect is duo largely to our temperance policy. The nn uunl death rate in the Htato is only 7 1-2 to every 1,000 inhab itants. This is m low that tho government of the United States still refuses to belii''e in ils aeeuraey, although it has been thoroughly investigated mid rexorificd. I have a letter from tiic vl'orotiiry of our bootd of health which will show you how pro hibition is prolonging life and building up vgorous health coudi tioiih in Kansas. It will show you that with every advance made in temperance original caos of tuberculosis decrease materially. Dr. Criimbiiio tells me that ten years of our present conditions and careful enforcement of sanitary regulations will eliminate entirely native eases of consumption. "I challongi! defenders, of tho saloon to chow twenty-five oiies in any commonwealth of the union where the percent of home owners is grcnter and tho per cent of renters smnller, where commereinl and financial business N more .prosperous and where resideneo nnd business proporty nliko are in better demand, where real citato values have increased more rap idly, whore greator progress has been made in public Improve ments, where men, women nnd children nre better educated, better mannered, hotter clothed nnd better fed thnn in tholargest twenty-five largest cities in" Kansas. If they oanno't do this their ar gutnenl in defense of tho saloon from an economic standpoint must forever bo discredited "in tho minds of thinking men. Their house is builded upon the snnd."
