Prohibition in Kansas. We arc told that prohibition "has brokei up the family lifo in thousands of hornet-hitherto happy and contented." Would ii be possible to conceive of a more idiotic argument in defense of the liquor traffic? On the contrary, hundreds of homes once filled with want and degradation by reason of drunken fathers, husbands and sons, have been changed to palaces of comfort, happiness, joy and prosperity. Go where you will, throughout the length and breadth of Kansas, and you will find happy and contented people, thriving towns, and cities where schools are supported and churches sustained.

Kansas, occupying the position she docs among the states of the Union, points to prohibition as one of the great factors in her rebuilding and advancement. Her freedom fron) the curse of the dram shop has brought to her floors the wealth of new England. Men of capital have planted their fortunes here because au investment in a community of sober people brings a sure and profitable return. Her population is composed of the best elements from the various states of the Union.

More than 8,000 miles of railway have been constructed within her borders, great cities have sprung up as if by magic and prosperity abounds upon every hand. In fact Kansas' exalted position in the galaxy of states is the grandest example of the benign influences of prohibition, an example worthy the attention of the people of this country who are to-day considering the most feasible plan of pulverizing the rum power.

Railroad between Fourth and Fifth. 4t. General Review of Yield, From the first fruit that ripened in the! spring to the last to come the quince-1 there have been great expectations and little realization. Tho strawberry crop was very unsatisfactory. Tho cherry crop was the greatest failure in many years, yet the trees hung full with fruit, even to the ripening season, but excessive rains just, at the critical time destroyed the crop.

The rainy season followed the cherry-ripening season from Virginia to Canada. Tin Hudson river raspberry crop was literally washed from, canes. Tho currant crop was le.ss than a third of what, was expected. The peach orchards from Virginia to New York, have refused to yield anything like tho quantity of fruit expected of them. Tho Hudson river grape crop will be but a little more than one-half the amount expected by the grower so late as midsummer.

The apple crop, as the time for gathering it approaches, seems to be less promising. But a light crop of quinces is expected in Western New York, where most of that fruit that is sold in this city is produced. The only fruit that has been nearly up to expectation in tho quantity yielded was the Bartlett pear crop. They have been abundant, of tine! quality, although somewhat under size, and cheap. A7.

Y. Tiiiien. a. Fortunes in Story Papers. At the end of forty hard years' workv at the age of sixty four, Bouner retires from active business with a fortune of several million dollars.

He is surrounded by all the luxuries of life. In his stablo he has the peerless Maud Dexter, tho king of the turf, the famous Rarus, and the magnificent Kdwin Forrest. In his stock farm at Tarrytown he has the finest animals in the orld. And this immense fortune was mado out of a weekly story-paper! It is enough to take a matter-of-fact man's breath away, but the next thing to a gold mine is a paper filled with popular fiction. Bonner is not the only man who has grown rich in his line of business.

Moses A. Dow, another poor printer, started a weekly called the Waverhj Magazine, in Boston, and made several millions out of it. The Munroe Brothers, two young fawners from Kova Scotia, reached New York some years ago with almost nothing. They commenced publishing cheap novels and story papers, and soon became millionaires, with 6ne town and country residences, fast horses aud fleet yachts. All this shows, not onlv that there i3 big money in fiction but that the people of this country are the greatest story readers in the world.

As National Superintendcndent of Franchise, I appeal to you, the W. C. T. and through you to every woman of this great and progressive State, to register at once, in order to vote at the next municipal and school elections. In the cities of the first and second class, no woman can vote unless she has previously been registered.

The books are now open. Register immediately, Do not lose a clay. Delays are dangerous. Twenty-six thousand women toted in Kansaslast April, in two hundred and fifty towns aud cities. Here is the result, as stated by Hon.

F. S. Adams, secretary of the Slate Historical Society: "Women have voted with good judgment, and for the common welfare. Is the question was as to better school management, they voted for the best. If it was for the change of an administration notoriously involved in speculations with water works or other corporations, they voted to deliver the city from such corrupt entanglements.

If political parties, controlled by saloon influences, put up candidates with tho odor of whiskey on their garments, the women rebuked th party managers, and voted for candidates who would better promote the moral welfare of the community. In every instance they voted for the freeing of the community from those demoralizing influences aud tempations from which every good woman would deliver those of her own household." If twenty-six thousand wemen have been able to do all this, how much more may one hundred thousand women do at the next election In cities of the first and second class, you can secure the election of a council of temperate, honest, efficient, public-spirited men, who will suppress the sale of liquor, close up dens of gambling and debauchery, reduce taxation, relieve poverty, improve the schools, and make the streets safe for men, women and children, by day and by night. In cities of the third class, you can elect all the officers. In tho unorganized country towns, you can attend tho school meeting's and provide good, warm, dry, well ventilated efficient teachers, libraries, apparatus, and temperance text books. Let us begin at once the work of preparation.

All tho states of the Union and the nations of Europe are watching the experiment For the establishment of justice, for the elevation of womanhood, for the best in-tests of humanity, rally to the polls, bringing with you every woman of your community to vote for good government and the protection of your homes.
