Riverboat Houseboat Gambler Gang Exploited Planters

A veteran river captain recalls a palatial gambling houseboat on White River Arkansas run by two brothers. During a freezeout poker run, lanky planter Joser loses about 78 000 dollars to schemes, spots marked decks, and a hidden four aces cache. The planter, aided by neighbors, repossesses loads of gold and forces the brothers to flee the river, warning others to avoid White River gambling boats.

Kansas Prohibition Battle Turns on Greever Vote

In Kansas the temperance struggle hinged on George Washington Greever, a Democrat, who changed his vote to support a constitutional amendment banning intoxicants except for specified uses. His stand, spurred by his wife Margaret Newland Greever, shifted the legislature and helped seal Kansas as a prohibition state, a tale entwined with romance and political pressure.
