It is interesting to note the efforts

tiers ito elevate the saloon to a high
er plane. One man. prominent in
the liquor interest in Seattle. Wash.
has been touring that State. urging
his liquor brethren to help make the
saloon respectable before the public
and to put it on par with other bust

doubtless are very appropriate. but

A number OF the territorial republi-
can papers. notably the Santa Fe
New Mexican, are endeayoring TO
place ON the Democratic party the
blame for the expected defeat of the
statehood bill. And this despite the
fact hat the Republicans have an
overwhelming majority In both the
branches of congress. The truth of
the matter Is that IL is only the Dem
ocrats in congress who desire state
lood, the majority of the Republicans
being opposed to 1t on purely politi-
cal grounds. The Republicans have
the power to pass the statehood bill

The Democratic City M
held another meeting last night and
passed another set of wiereases and
resolvedes. Taen this morning they
doctored them up again. The net re
suit will be found elsewhere In this
paper.
The Record viii say that we do not
endorse the new move. II appears TO
us as A. most unsatisfactory move.
Our reasons for this attitude, are.
briefly, as follows:
The resolutions call for a special
election, though to be acid at the
ttne OF the general city election. New
~ertheless it In a special election, and
one not sanctioned In N shape or
form by law. There will be none OF
the legal projections of a legal cleo
ton and IL might well be an absolute
rerce.
III the No-Lfcense people should a
gree to adopt this plan it would bind
them to the support of candidates
who have not yet been nominated and
who are absolutely unknown at the
present time. They might be composed
of straight-out saloon nen. even the
owners of the saloons themselves.
The Record believes this would be
very bad politics M a blow at the
prohibition cause, itself. To success
fully enforce prohibition i officials
must be in sympathy with the law
and not merely elected. OF course they
would be pledged, but then 1t will be
remembered that a former city ad-
ministration was also pledged. and
was only held to b pledge by the
united action and protest of the peo-
pie Of Roswell. To make prohibition
a&uccess n people who will enforce
tae law must believe in it,
From a purely party standpoint
there is a serious objection to the pro-
posed plan. We believe that one OF the
main reasons advanced for not pull
ing the Democratic party out of the
city election this year. was that the
City Committee considered that it did
not have the power to bind the party
to any such action. Yet these resolu-
tions passed last night and doctored
ND today, 60 even farther than tAat-
They propose to dictate the kind OF
a platform the Democratic candidates
shall run upon and force upon them
n pledge binding their action for the
next two years. and perhaps longer.
To us this looks like a much more rad
ical assumption OF power thar even
the not calling of a convention or a
primary. OF course il may be said tia
the people win decide at the special
election. but eve then a minority Of
the Democratic party might join with
the Republicans and defeat the ma
5ority of the Democratic party under
this scheme.
The proposed plan would cloud the
real issue. The question today Ia:
SALOONS On no saloons? Under the
proposed plan 1t would become:
Saloons OF High License? We are op-
posed to beclouding the ISSUE Let 10
be clean-cut and distinct: Booze or
no booze.
What action the No-License people
will take we do O know. The above
are simply the views Of the Record.

In the section devoted to autos. Mr.
Dillingham; states that the committee
met with extreme difficulty in their
efforts to secure entries. "There seem
ed to be lack of enthusiasm and d
spirit of wanting to let the other fellow
do it, he reports. ''The following
excuses were given as reasons for not
entering: |, expense; ., had several
years expense and tired Of it; 3. need
ed auto to take family about. For the
benefit of future committees on this
work | am fling herewith itemized
statements of cost of some of the prize
winning automobiles, which is the
strongest possible argument to knock
out the expense excuse. The other two
excuses were harder to meet, and L
believe tn tendency in the parades to
come will be a lack Of necessary inter
est on the part of private auto owners
to decorate for the parades.' He adj
vocates enlisting the business houses,
clubs. etc. to enter one ear each on the
understanding that no money eontrlbu-
ton would be solicited of them.
The total expenditures for the 1910
parade aggregated $254S.33. This large
amount came through the Pilil1ia stunt,
which was new; luncheon for cavalry;
Columbia Boys band; carnival section
and expense for clerical assistance,

Warships to Burn Oil.

SAN FRANCISCO, August Elton
gresham Joseph r. Knowland has re
eeived advices from the navy depart

clearly that more general use of oil
as fuel is contemplated on American
war vessels 1t is stated upon the
authority of Beellman Winthrop, as
sistant secretary Of the navy. that the
designs for the new torpedo boats call
for oil instead of coal. 1t IS stated
also that oil has been adopted as an
auxiliary fuel for the battleshlps
While it is a source Of satisfaction
that some Roadway has been made, the
steps taken to the present are regarded
merely as a beginning. The petroleum
industry will look for a readjustment
before long, by which those vessels IN
the Pacific service. at least, shall all
burn California "grease,'
The reply of the war department IA
Knowland's letter of inquiry will not
be read with the same measure OF sa!
isfaction. It reports that 1.-The modl
fication of the transports for the use o.
oil fuel is not considered in any way
advisable. - II is stated that the Goa
for the transports costs only $50
