A CORRECTION.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. Sir, — In thorcport of my address which appeared in Saturday's Star, I am reported as having said : " Before Prohibition was carried in Kansas tnere were from 5000 to 7000 persons in prison, now there were three." I quoted Judge Means, of Norton County, Kansas, who, writing of his County, said : "We have now in the poor-house only three persons. Before Prohibition came the County paid out from five to seven thousand dollars annually to keep the poor." I am, &c, | J. Cockek.
