From the Lawrence Daily World for Oct. 1, 1906: “The Old Home Week Festival is on and all evidence is that a great time may be had by many, despite some concerns about the diphtheria problem of late. : Over 3,000 licenses to sell liquor in Kansas have been issued and Lawrence seems to have about 30 such licenses. Leavenworth leads with 206, Kansas City has 192 and Topeka 189. License holders must be on the public record and when a jointist goes into court without a license, he could be in serious trouble.”
