If It took twenty years to make prohibition a reasonable success in a single State what sensible man could assert that eight years 1s long enough as a period of trial for the whole epuntry? When he declares that there Is more liquor sold and consumed in the United States today than there was before prohibition he makes himself plainly ridiculous. Liquor is ten times as costly and a thousand times as hard tQ get now as it was in the. old saloon days. It Is simply preposterous to claim that notwithstanding this morq of it Is sold.

17:14. But whats the use of arguing the matter? The country has come to prohibition by climbing up out of the very methods of handling the liquor traffic to which Gov. Smith urges us to return. The country will never about-face on this question. The point is that If Mr.

Smith is elected the dry forces of the country will have to organize for a long, hard and costly fight to keep what we have got, with violation of the law open and defiant while the fight is being made. If Mr. Smith is beaten, then the battle is won once for all and no political party will ever again have the audacity to renew it. With the candidacy of Albert Smith the Wets are making their last and strongest battle for booze. Will the people let them win? In relating her remarkable restoration to health through Sargon; Mrs.

Ellen M. Shouse, of 342 Drury. Kansas City, recently said.j Sargon and Sargon Soft Pills have overcome troubles from which I had suffered for twentyj long years. During all those years, I suffered from the errects of an1 inactive liver. I had no appetite and the little I ate disagreed with' me.

I had frequent attacks of in-j digestion and was bilious and con-1 stlpated nearly all the time. "I was continually taking purga-f lives and laxatives, but they only! afforded temporary relief. I was ex- tremely nervous and became so dreadfully weak and rundown I was: hardly able to do my housework. One day my husband brought me a bottle of Sargon and the Pills.f After the first few doses I was de-f) lighted to note an Now, after taking two bottles of Sargon, I am like a differei vom-an. (t I have a splendid appetite and eat anything I want.

The biliousness and indigestion have been entirely overcome. I am not nervous in the least. I have been wonderfully strengthened and I feel better in every way. Sargon Soft Mass Pills have overcome my constipation. These pills do not gripe or cause any other discomfort.

They Just seem to help Nature along. I shall always have a good word to say for these wonderful medicines. I have never in my life found their equal. Sargon may be obtained in Iola from Cooks Drug Store, in Moran from H. R.

A government statement as of September 1, showing the composite condition of all crops In comparison with the ten-year average, placed Kansas at the head of the list of states with a condition of 128.6 per cent. A wheat crop of 180,000,000 Is largely responsible for this showing.

Final figures on wheat production, to be released in December, may show a slight decrease, but the crop win go down as the largest or the second largest the state ever produced. Planting for the 1929 crop is now in progress, being more than half completed. Dry weather has delayed planting in some parts of the state, but the wheat sown early is up and doing well. An acreage of about slightly less than that planted for this year. Is predicted.

The next big harvest in Kansas will be that of com with a crop of something better than 180,000,000 bushels made. At one time it was believed the state would produce at least 200,000,000 bushels of corn, but an unexpected dry spell, accompanied by hot winds for three days, cut the yield In the south central and northwest portions of the state. However, the crop is larger than that of last year, and shucking will commence as soon as there has been a heavy frost. The fourth crop of alfalfa is being cut. The livestock industry is flourishing.

choosing a president 'we could find no other American who stands so high in the esteem of humanity, or who is in a better position to work for international good will and world peace than Herbert Hoover. Wherever he has gone on his errands of mercy, he-has earned the gratitude of millions of people, and that gratitude he redounded to the glory of his native land. Children that Hoover saved are growing into manhood and womanhood with the memory of the debt they owe to our country and to i Hoover. The consciousness of, this obligation will keep them friendly to America. It will much to avert war when international misunderstandings arise.

Hoover has been an ambassador of good will. 3 8 a a THE MILWAUKEE SPEECH. For an hour at Milwaukee Governor Smith argued that prohibition is a failure and should be abandoned as a national policy. It was a good place to make that kind of a speech. Here are some of the things he said: There is as much, if not more, liquor in the country today than in the pre-prohibition days.

I regard this (repeal of prohibition) as a great moral Issue and I appeal to the people to approach It fairly. "I claim that the 18th amendment and the Volstead act have produced a condition of wholesale corruption among officials of the Government charged with their enforcement. Prohibition has been the great political pork barrel for the Republican party. The drastic and unreasonable definition of what constituted an intoxicant as contained in the Volstead act, has driven men and women who heretofore were content with drinking light wines and beer to the use of strong liquor; and liquor drinking in this country is on the upward move as a direct result of the attempt to prohibit alcoholic beverages entirely. "It is a well known fact liquor is easily obtainable in every State in the Union.

And so the candidate continued for nearly an hour making the argument that prohibition is not only a failure in the matter of restricting the use bf liquor, but that it is demoralizing the people, particularly the boys and girls, corrupting politics, and breeding disregard of all laws and disrespect for thol Government. And then he proceeded to outline his remedy. He would amend the Volstead Act by writing into it a sane and sensible definition of what constituted an intoxicating beverage. (The Governor apparently doesnt know that the definition now in the act is the one proposed by brewers and distillers more than half a century ago and agreed to by the Government upon their suggestion as a basis of taxation). He next proposed' to amend the 18th amendment by providing that each State should be permitted to "determine for itself what it wants to do about the manufacture and sale of liquor.

He admitted that the President cannot bring this about by himself. But he added: If I am elected President of the United States it will be my duty to lay this matter before every community I can reach and let them make their- own decision And that brings before us the vision of a president of the United States going about over the country, presumably making the speech he made at Milwaukee, telling the people prohibition is a failure and a farce, that It is not and never can be enforced, and that It should be repealed- in the interest of public morality! Would that not be an, engaging spectacle? Of course the Register takes direct Issue with every affirmative statement the Governor made with respect to prohibition. It does not believe that the Volstead Act has resulted in worse conditions than existed under the legal sale of liquor; that it his caused disrespect for law; that there is wholesale corruption among government officials; that young people especially are demoralized by the situation; that "there is as much, if not more, liquor in the country today than in pre-prohibition days. The argument Gov. Smith makes for the repeal of prohibition on the score that it is not everywhere and all the time enforced would call for the repeal of every other law in our criminal code.

There isnt a criminal law in existence that is not violated again and again in every community. But would public morality be conserved and public safety be better assured if all criminal lawi were wiped off the statute books? The Governor declares that eight years is a long enough time of trial. Out here in Kansas the Democratic party regularly der manded the resubmission of the prohibitory amendment for twenty years but by that time the sentiment in favor of the amendment ii II II II II ill IOLA DAILY ABSTRACT Issued from Office of Iola Abstract Company 5 A HOOVER STORY. I was trying to draw out Mr. Hoover about his wax service at home and abroad, said a man who had been a guest at the Hoover home.

Mr. Hoover remarked, during your work in Belgium, and later as food administrator, wasnt there some one time when things seemed to be at their worst? You went through four years of frightful discouragement, but when did things look blackest? I should say about 3 a. replied Mr. Hoover. That reply is charaeteristio of the man.

It was at the end of a fourteen or sixteen-hour day that his vitality probably ran low, but with the rising of the sun we saw his energy revive and he was ready to pick up his burdens afresh. A man of amazing reserve force Is Mr. Hoover and we need that quality in a president. Momdlay, (ettoEoec (October 1, 1928) Henry C. Rurtiss.

Indeed the only black spots on the map this month are small ones in West Virginia, Illinois, Kentucky, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina, a marked improvement over a year ago. Eastern Kansas remains in the white as it has been most of the time for several years.
