The agents for the foreign liq-, uor corporations who are conduc- i ting the wet campaign in Oregon and Washington have been put ting out a lot of fake statistics about Kansas, pretending to com pare its bank deposits and pene tentiary statistics with similar statistics of other states. In comparing the bank statis tics, the liquor men only credit Kansas with the deposits in the national banks, as given in the report of the Comptroller of the ! currency. ; They wholly ignore the deposits j in the 933 state banks whose de- j posits at the time of the last ' statement amounted to $108,000,- j 000.00. j j In their Kansas penitentiary j statistics, the liquor men include! the prisoners in the Federal pen- Jetentiary at Leavenworth, which . S are not Kansas prisoners at all, : but who com'e from all over the i country. Under date of August 8th, Warden Morgan of the Fed eral penitentiary wires th'e Anti Saloon League Press Bureau that there were 1031 Federal prison ers confined on that date. Responding to a telegraphic re quest for information as to the number of prisoners in the Kan sas State Penitentiary, in reply, Warden Botkin telegraphed as follows: Lansing, Kansas, August 8th, 1914. Anti Saloon League Press Bureau, Portland, Oregon. Seven hundred and thirty-three men. -Twelve Kansas women. Thirty-eight Federal women. About eight percent of men here through liquor and dope. Very large percentage of these not Kansas citizens but floaters from other states. Prohibition has greatly diminished crime among Kansas citizens. Contrary re- i ports false. J. D. Botkin, Warden The Columbia River Interstate Fair will be held at Vancouver, Washington, this year, Septem ber 7th to 12th. Of its enter taining features Goo. P. Lirsen, secretary and manager, writes as follows: I will not attempt to tell you about our magnificent agricult ural and stock exhibit because I appreciate that you are pretty strong along this line yourself, but we are celebrating the 90th anniversary of the establishing of the City of Vancouver, and in connection have secured the well known Wild West entertainment for the week; namely, Irwin Brothers big outfit from Chey enne, Wyoming. This was the original Wild West show in the United States and still leads all others. Walla Walla and Pendle ton have been scrapping each other for some time but have come togeather to visit Vancouv er with the intention of wiping the Cheyenne outfit off the map and it is going to be some fight, let me tell you.
