NOTWITHSTANDING the demand Of
the great majority of the votes for a
pure election at the primary on April
25th, candidates are already boldly
using money and whiakey to d'bauch
that class Of voters that can be bought
by these means, and in this work they
are being aided by many members of
the executive committee. 1t has long
been apparent that the county eIecu-
tive committee as at present constitu-
ted has no consuming desire for pure
primary. The people who have the
real welfare of the party at heart
should elect to this committee at the
approaching primary men who will
refuse to become the tools Of candi-
dates who have to buy their way into
Office.

WHISKY costs the people a lot Of
money-most of which comes of of the
very poor-snd if burdens so heavy
were placed upon them by any other
form Of taxation they would raise
tremendous rumpus.
For instance, at Grafton, W. Va,
fourteen saloons have taken out IL
cen,e, for which they have to pay the
city $4,000, in addition to the State
and government license. To this big
sum must DO added the cost of the
stuff with which the saloons are
stocked, the pay Of those who run
them. rent, ETC., making an enormous
aggregate that with singular stupidity
poor men pay without receiving any
substantial benefit.
In Hsgerstown the past week II
licenses have been issued to saloons in
Washington county, costing an aggre-
gate of about $4,000 under the new
license law. The saloon-kespers pay
it, of course, but they soon collect it
from their patrons, together with their
other expenses and their patrons.
Truly, King Alcohol has foolish
subjects.

A. Eberstadt, one Of the up-to-date
residents of Amarillo, and large
property owner, expressed himself
today hopefully and enthusiastically
of the new hotel proposition. To "A
representative OF the Daily Panhan-
die he said:
81 have not subscribed for any
stock In the hotel company, as 1 have
not yet been approached ON the sub
iect. | presume that the promoters
are securing the larger subscribers.
But | will become subscriber for
stock when ! am invited.
II regard an active and concerted
move on the part of the citizens TO
secure u hotel as one of the wisest
that could be conceived, have
talked hotel for two years, and | am
naturally gratiiied to see the town
catch mp with me in realizing the
Importance of taking hold Of the bus
mess end Of the proposition.
LAS Mr.. Stringtellow so pointedly
stated, it makes a double appeal to
Amarillo citizens. First, 1t is a mat
ter of pride TO feel that the wayfarer
can get the best; second, It appeals
alike to the large and small investor
as equallng in safety a government
bond and in dividend paying quail
ties equaling an Amarillo lot or
plains section OF land.
You can put me down as being
first, last and all the time for every
industry and improvement that
makes for the good of Amarillo. In

ADOLPH EBERSTADT

One Of AmariIIO'S Foremost Residents Declares
Need is Urgent and Ready 10 Sub
scribe for Block Of Stock

the llmitless field so invrrng to the
investment Of capital Amarillo pre-
sents nothing that surpasses the ho-
tel proposition,
Il have travelled extensively, In
fact lived in hotels since my early
manhood, and am frank TO say that
We need a modern hotel. With n
finst-class hotel Amarillo would at
tract ten OF the travelling public
where she now attracts one, she
would be the most popular conven-
ton city in the state. Just why we
have grown so phenomenally in rail
roads, manufacturing industries, fine
business blocks, palatial churches,
and magnificent residences and prac-
tically remained stationary on hotels
am unable to explain.
"A 100000 hotel would be worth
more to Amarillo than a railroad.
1t would be the initial move in max
ing this city and vicinity one of the
most popular summer resorts in the
Southwest"
Mr., Ebastadt built the Eberstadt
building, Is large owner OF i'm
proved and unimproved real estate,
Is always publlc-spirlted in doing y
part in hard and effective work,
substituting railroads and taking
stock in various industries OF a semi
public nature, hence his words in
the hotel matter carry weight. He
wants that hotel built, and in this
he has the Endorsement Of hun
dreds Of others.
