From tbe ltalfLiTli Nt.wti and oiworvcr.
They have a curious state of afl'aii s
iu Kansas growing out of the prohibi
tory law which there prevails. It
shows clearly how --icai an effect 011
genetal politics a local issue muv
have and to what queer method's
le-ort may be had in dealing with;
prohibition A Kansas druggist, it
seems, must have a permit to se'l !
intoxicating litpiors for medicinal. 1
mechanical aud sciciitihe pu. post s, j
The piobate judge may giant 1 ! : is
when the diuggist preset. tsU petition I
(j sigtied by twelve fi ho.ders, bu' i; j
is eii.ii" ly ai ins uiscietioti. 111.-a-'thoiity
iu the matter is absolute. I
For mauling said permit thopiobnc
judge is allowed j.). It is abo pio
: vidi'd in the law that any person
wanting liquor from a druggist must ;
sig.i a petition showing for what lea- ;
sou he wants it (ami he umv jj.w anv '
leasou, and the diuggist may sell to
any one signing a siateim-nt, unless
he is intoxicated at the time or is an
hahituai dfitikard), or must have a
plVBi-iiptioii trom a phVMClali. All
these sttiteiueiil s and piesc ip'ions
must be preserved by the druggist,
and at tin- end of each leoeth he m ist
tile them with the prob-.te judge of
the county. The probate judge re
ceives live cents for tl.ing each state
ment and. 'O be hi ie. he makes o; di
narily about il.ltt)it by li! ng papt.s
iu regard to tht- sa'e of intoxica ing
liquors. He can take away 11 permit
from a diuggist at ids own w ill. He
is even authoiit-.l toeoiet hi 1 ku 1
tlm is to say. he can 1 evoke a
druggist's permit whi m vef he sit
prop" r. If a druggist icfusi s to pay
luoir than foe cents a tuou.h for his
monthly icport. he can take away
his license. Many do leinse and
hue theti is ihe que-tioii: Is the u-
I""'' (" aoiuggisi 1 or a single momti
a single Hung or is the ill uggtsl who
soils litpiors atl.i times hound to pay
for .'till liiings? ft m iy seem ia her
ill lieroiis, but it evis's nevertheless,
and is said to have more etlect .:poii
the county polities of the State than
any other question whatever.
