THE PEOPLES WAREHOUSE Where it Pays to Trade Save Your Coupons PROHIBITION IN ATCHISON, KAN. Richard F. Anile, Who Ha.1 Bought the Johnson Place, Tells of Condi tions In Karma h City Stajfiiatlon of fiuslnett IntTtxts and Murder of Prosperity Followed Law's Enforce ment. Richard T. Antle of Atchison, Kan., has Junt purchased 109 acres of C. C. Johnson, adjoining the KaiHer or chard, formerly the Simon place, near Phoenix. About 40 acres Is In or chard. The price paid was $18,000. "I hope the people of Jackson coun ty have .enough sense to vote against prohibition," said Mr. Antle. "I come from a prohibition state and know how It works. "We have had prohibition for years In Kansas. During all this time until a few months ago, when the attorney gpneral Interfered, there were 30 sa loons openly In Atchison. These sa loons were orderly, closed at mid night and Sunday. There was but little drunkenness on the streets. These saloons paid annual fines of $800 apiece. In addition, there were four agencies of big eastern breweries, which also paid $600 a year fine apiece. This made a total revenue of $42,400 a year from saloons and largely paid the city's expenses. "There Is a brewery at Atchison that, when the prohibition law was passed, was a small affair and prac tically bankrupt. Under prohibition It has grown to be one of the largest breweries In the country and has cleared $175,000 outside of Improve ments. Even today It runs four de livery wagons In Atchison. "Since the attorney general closed the saloons in Atchison most of them, including the eastern brewery agen cies, have moved across the river Into East Atchinson, on the Missouri side, and the city of Atchinson Is out over $20,000 a year revenue, for which an Increased tax has had to be levied, "There are 14 drug "stores In Atchi son that sell booze by the drink, from 25 to SO boot-leggers and several blind pigs. These pay government license only. "The- police court cases have In creased 6 to 1 in the past few months and the number of drunks on the street show a still larger Increase. More boys are arrested for drunken ness than ever In the city's history. "The 30 buildings occupied by the saloons are all vacant or have been rented at greatly reduced rentals. Kents have fallen all over the busi ness section of Atchison and the con struction of new buildings stopped. "Farmers who used to come to At chison to buy supplies and spend their money now go to Kansas City, and Atchison merchants are out this trade. In brief, the enforcement of prohibition has killed prosperity and brought about stagnation in Atchi son," Central Committee. Feminine Demonstration, London, May 29.
