elimination against our day or job

promises of the leaders of the so called
Citizens Party which were made to
get the votes of many of our law
abiding citizens.
"Third-It is notorious fact that
the saloons of Pullman during the past
year have repeatedly sold liquor to
minors, drunkards, and intoxicated
persons, which fact is we'll known to
the present administration, but there
has not been a prosecution therefor
therefore, it shall be the policy of this
party to rigidly prosecute such offend
ers of the law and to forfeit the
license of saloon keepers so offend

Certain nominees of the citizens"
party will make a strong play for
votes by loud and repeated protesta-
lions that they, too, are in favor OF
law enforcement. But man is nc
bigger than the power which creates
him. No matter how good the man,
his election will stand for support anc
endorsement of the record of the party
for which he stands.

CAN YOU SUPPORT THIS RE-
CORD?

The publication of that portion Of
the proceedings of the city council
dealing with the gambling case
against d. G. Burns saloon, and the
charge of conducting a disorderly
house against the Enos & Spawr pool
room, makes most interesting read
ing Just at this time. One of the
issues of the present campaign is this
record, the "citizens'' party asking
for support and endorsement upon
the way in which it handled these
cases. Read the record in the Burns
case carefully; see how the majority
of the council put every obstacle in
the way of an investigation and how
at last Burns admitted the truth of
the charge by relinquishing his saloon
license. Then later how the same
council gives Burns a job running the
engine at the water works station at
$500 per month. A man proven unfit
to dispense liquor in the city was still
good enough man to draw salary
from the people of Pullman.
And that's a part of the record of
which the "citizens" party asks your
approval and support. "
And then came the Enos & Spawr
case; the same thing followed in this.
The house pleaded guilty by asking
for revelation of its license, but
week later the same council by major
ity vote gave the house another IL
cense.
Can you give your approval and
support" of this record by following
the instructions of the "citizens"
platform in assisting in electing a
mayor, council and city government
who will carry out the present poll
cies?'
Vote for decency by voting against
the record.

TWO STRONG PLANKS.

In view of the fact that the "citi-
zens ticket platform asks your ap-
proval and support of the present city
administration, the first and third
planks of the law enforcement plat
form have especial significance. They
read as follows:
First--That if its nominees are
elected they will justly and vigorousl,
enforce the laws of our city includin.
the gambling and saloon laws. which
have been purposely and disgracefull,
overlooked and neglected by the 5
called Citizens Administration whic
failure and neglect to enforce, was i
direct violation of the pre-electio
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1906-12-01

If the law enforcement nominees are
elected you can be sure there will be
an honest ATTEMPT at the enforcement
OF existing city ordinances, and none
of the nominees will place themselves
in the position that they are afriad to
see laws enforced. The past year
has seen rottenness covered up to pro-
tect men high in the administration OF
city affairs.
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1906-12-01

The present campaign is one of
principles and not of men. Admitting
that there may be good men on each
ticket, the point must not be lost to
view that the state is watching the
outcome of this fight, and that Pull
man can not afford to be recorded as
supporting and approving the rotten
ness that was unearthed last summer.

The saloon evidently thinks that
their interests will be better protected
if the enforcement of law is left to
their own hands. The saloon keeper
can then be assured of good place on
the city pay roll if the public demand
becomes so strong that he has to ask
the council to 'please revoke my IL
cense. >"
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1906-12-01

One of the incongruities of the
campaign is the action of Mayor Sta
ley in lodging certain defeat in run
ming again for mayor after the I'M
savory record which he helped to
create, and presenting himself as a
candidate for councilman in a ward
that he had hopes of carrying. But
we believe there are some things the
first ward won't stand for.

Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1906-12-01

Is it because they fear a rigid en-
forcement of law that the saloons are
working so strenuously to defeat the
nominees of the law enforcement
party? And yet the supporters of the
citizens ticket will tell you that
there is no issue, that they also be-
lieve in law enforcement.

THE ELECTRIC LIGHT PROPO-
SITION.

One proposition that will be voted
on at the coming election will be the
sale of the old city lighting system.
1t should be understood that the city
council, acting under the expression
of the voters secured informally last
spring. has already leased the system
for 81 years at a rate that will not
warrant the city to hold it while the
Lighting Company has agreed to pay
very good price for the system if the
people vote to sell. The question to
be decided is then: Shall we receive
$4,000 Immediately from the sale of the
system, or shall we receive rental
of $50 per month during the period of
the franchise?

MT. Shaw Considers The Situation Se-
 riOus in Wall Street.
 Chicago Special to The New Orleans
 Times-D Democrat.
 Secretary of the Treasury Leslie M. Shaw. accompanied by several local bankers. tramped the streets of Chi cago to-day in a blinding snowstorm in what was said to be an effort to save the financial situation. MT. Shaw regards the conditions in Wall street as being grave enough to enlist hlS most strenuous efforts.
 Until he departed for Washington at 5 D. m. to-day, he devoted every mo- ment to endeavor to avert more serious conseouences than have arisen.
 Before the Secretary arose a dele eation of financiers were in the hotel narIor awaiting him. He ate a hearty breakfast and left for the clearing house and other banking centers.
 MT. Shaw refused to say whether or not he would aid Wall street by depos- iting money from the Treasury to re- Ueve the situation. He declined to express an opinion whether a govern ment bank had been discussed.
 He refused to confirm the report that he has decided to deposit $10,000, GOO in Chicago, S5,000 900 In St. Louis and $5.- 0o0, ,000 in Louisville to relieve the sit uation.
 Secretary Shaw came to Chicago in an effort to protect Wall street from , insIstent demands for money from all parts of the country. His purpose was to ask them to Ego easy on Wall street.
 A national mania" to loan money last summer regardless of the rate of interest. followed this fall by the slow movement of crops, is assigned by the Secretary of the Treasury as the reason for the strinRency in Wall street. He vigorously denies that it is the result of speculation.
 From all parts of the country money was being sent to New York, to be loaned last summer. There seemed to be national epidemic of loan money. Every person that had a dollar want ed to loan 1t, to get rid of 1t at almost any price. Money was loaned at as low rate of interest as 1 per cent,
The Montgomery advertiser., 1906-01-02

Indeed, millions were loaned for less than per cent-which in itself should be a crime
 Now from all over the country these persons are calling for their money. Crops were slow this year, and ready money Is not as plentiful and easy as it might be. The banks in turn are calling in their loans and the final call comes with stunning accumulatiye force on the New York banks. It was to them that the streams of money flowed during the summer, and now they are being called upon to return
