KANSAS CITY
ITEMIZED REPLY TO PREVARI
CATIONS WHICH LIQUOR IN
TERESTS CIRCULATE.
To the voters: Everywhere it is
about tho same. The policy of those
fighting local option seems to be one
of prevarication. An illustration is
given in the following about Kansas

tion.

two months of Prohibition, 11,180.

778,000; assessed valuation, one
fifth of actual $955,000.

the year and greatest In history of
tho city. ; ;;,A,"
Lie No. 5 That business is lan
guishing.
Fact No. 5 Mayor says it's a lie.

GOV. HOCK OF KANSAS "
APPEALS FOR PROHIBITION.
Governor Hoch of Kansas, In his
annual message to the legislature,
January, 1907:
Relatively (and everything is
relative In this world) the prohi
bitory policy has been a great suc
cess In this state. It has been a
great benefit educationally, morally
and financially to the people. Our
lier capita wealth is over ninety dol
lars nearly three times the average
In the United States and now where
Is wealth more equally distributed.
A poorhouse is always a joke In Kan
sas. The devil never invented a big
ger Ho than that revenue from Ille
gitimate sources Is necessary to the
financial success of any town or city.
Such a contention is an Insult to any
community In Kansas.
New Eldorado In Oregon
Makes Second-Hand Deal
ers Wealthy Quick.
GRANT PASS, Ore.. Mav 1 fi
Three second-hand dealers of this
city, who three months ago counted
.'their assets In a few dollars, are now
believed to bo worth $100,000. These
men are Robert and Benjamin Har
rison, brothers, and C. C. Jones
who, In less than 90 days, have taken
$30,000 in gold from a claim in the
Williams Creek mining district, 20
miles Bouth of here. It is rclinhiv
reported that these men have suffi
cient of the yellow metal in sight to
raise their fortunes to a round $100
000. Pan Out 87,000 Kastcr Sunday.
It seems almost incredible that
only last Thursday these mining
pounds of pure gold In one pan, but
back of this comes their best day's
yield which netted them on Easter
Sunday in round numbers $7,000.
In an interview today, Robert
Harrison, one of tho owners of the
mine, who came to town to transact
business concerning the disposal of
ore, verified tho rumors that had
leaked out.
Producing $200 to 8500 a Day.
"Yes, It is true," said Harrison,
"that wo have a rich mine, and we
have been taking out lots of gold
every day since we have been out
there in that district. For the last
30 days our, mine has produced from
$200 to $500 every day. We have
just sunk a chute 100 feet and from
all indications I think a conservative
estimate will fix tho amount of ore
in sight at not less than $75,000.
The opening shows up a 9-lnch vein
and Is rich beyond our most sanguine
expectations.
"Will Wo Soil? No, Sir."
"Last Tlnrsday our net proceeds
for the day amounted to 12
pounds of pure gold, so you can see
why wo wish to keep our mining
business to ourselves. We have
been operating In the Williams
Creek mining district since about the
first of March. Our richest strike
was made on Easter Sunday, when
tho boys took out $7,000."
Asked if he had realized $10,000
In all, tho reply was: "Three times
that amount, but I do not care to
discuss that matter now. We have
the mines and they are there to
show for themselves. Would we
sell our mine? I hardly think so at
the present time. Would you, with
a fortune in sight?"
