We are told what awful results would
happen IL the city is deprived Of the license
money now coming into the city treasury
A little arithmetic will show in the first
place that mill levy would equal the
saloon license. not a severe burden on
anyone.
Again. for every dollar that comes into
the city treasury from saloon license. at
least four dollars goes out OF the city To
wholesalers.
We are pointed to the condition Of the
city finances one year when the town was
deprived Of about $1,000 license money
it had been receiving. and told Of the
dilapidated condition Of crossings. etc.
Ii is well known fact that prior to
that year the town had always had the

einder crossing has been put in since
the removal Of the postotfice and is the
only new crossing put in on Main street
during the year. Aside from these streets
the principal street OF tho city is without
crossings. Practically no attempts have
been made to put in crossings until since

as the city never before that time nor
since has built any sidewalks. All side

For the past week or ten days about
eighty men have been working on the
Santa Fe track in Rocky Ford. The
men don't claim to be citizens of the city
but because Of their incidental presence
Just before the election some of the sup
porters Of the Business Mems ticket be-
came greatly interested in them on
Tuesday last and urged them to register
and vote. A portion of them did So,
nbout a score. but when many of them
read the affidavit they must make to get
registered they showed excellent judg-
ment by backing squarely out of the
business. greatly to the disgust Of license
supporters who desired to use them.
Even if portion Of the eighty men
were technically entitled to register
and vote, everybody knows that none
of them were citizens and that none of
them had any interests in the town to
Justify their casting ballot. Yet in spite
of this Unanimously acknowledged situa-
ton they were urged to register by a
portion of those who are support
ers of the Business Mems party.
Had there been no liquor issue in the
campaign there would have been no
thought of getting these men to commit a
crime to help carry a municipal election.

Here's richness: A Rocky Ford license
paper says that the No-Lieense party is
responsible for the expressed intention of
a saloonkeeper to start joint if the vot-
ers of Rocky Ford should say that liquor
selling is. unlawful. When license is
granted the liquor seller does not
obey restrictions and when liceuse is re-
fused he proposes to start joint and throw
the responsibility of his crime on those
who saw the evil Of the business and
said it must stop. Our local License
paper would make out that the No
License voter Is the criminal instead Of
the man who sells liquor in defiance of
law. Evil Is called good. and good evil
