Wlmt Prohibition will do When the
Low la Enforced.
The following statement la from
the coahier of the largeat bank In
Konoaa City:
“Answering your Inquiry with ref-^
. erence to my opinion about the con
dition of Kansas City, Kan., before
and nine© th e closing of the ‘Joints’.
twenty-one months ago, I am glad to
atete that it has been the best |
twenty-one months In the history of
ft. city during the seventeen years
that 1 have lived and been engaged
Jn the banking business here.
’‘It has been a twenty-one months
during which bank deposits have
about doubled; twenty-one months
of the largest activity In building
ever know n In the history of the city,
twenty-one months In which it has
been *J mo *t impossible to find a va-
c storeroonl business*
streets In which to locate a business;
twenty-one months of the largest
growth In population that the city J
l as ever been able to record folj I
the game length of time; twer^y^one j
months of the least c^ime; twenty--
one months of largest progress
made ' 4rt building of uchool bulld-
and in Increase of school facil
ities; twenty-one months of the great
est satisfaction among our retail
business men; above all, twenty-one
months of the purest city govern
ment of the best moral ntmoephere
this city haa ever enjoyed; a twenty-
one months during which men who
were committed to resubmiulon and
who were violent anll-prohlbltlon-
Ibts have been whollly converted to
tne atrict enforcement of the prohl-
oltory law and who will uae all
their Influence and a reasonable
amount of their time and money to
keep the city clean end free from
the Influence of the brewers and dis
tillers as It Is free now.
“It has been estimated by those
who are competent to Judge that the
enforcement of the law, as it haa
been enforced herer fpr the last twen-
, ty-one months Is a net saving of
11,000,000 W yea# to the cltlsWBT
this city.”
As In Kansas City, so It will be In
Atlanta, and every other city where
th e prohibition law Is enforced. Even
with the locker, clubs and near-beer
saloons wide open there Is much
loss crime And much more legiti
mate business'than there was with
legalised saloons running In the
city. Tho Tlppln’a bill will be pass
ed when tho Georgia Legislature
meets in June, and the law wlU be
enforced. If not, then the people
will take th e matter In hand in the
elections for Governor, Judges and
members of the Ceneral Assembly,
The liquor crowd in Georgia need
not tr.lnk that tho prohibitionists
will no hand In the election for
State and county offices In 19IS.
Georgia Is a prohibition state and
the state is the unit In dealing with
the liquor question. When a man an
nounces for the legislature and does
not know where he stands on the
prohibit n n question, the voters may
know that he la against prohibition,
When a man favors prohibition be
knows it.

That properly describes the showing in our new store of

partment that excels anything we have heretofore shown.

give you a cordial invitation to visit our new store. We are proud of our
Millinery and Ready-to-wear Department
