Prohibition down South is on the
wane," said Henry c. Cook, of Atlanta,
Ca. at the Riggs last night. THE pro-
hibition wave which swept the Southern
States into the dry column has about lost
| its force. and the people are realizing
that the benefits which 1t was claimed
would result therefrom in financial as
well as moral ways did not appear.
"on the contrary. the various States
where prohibition was introduced have
lost financially in many ways. The state
tax on intoxicants, which is always a
great factor in the receipts. has been
eliminated, and II is most difficult TO
create new sources Of income TO make
Up for the loss. Many people have been
thrown cut Of work, ard property has
deprecated. The statistics show that
crime has not diminished. and that the
iails contain as many prisoners as be-
fore the prohibition laws were intro
duced.
Prohibition is q failure, because II does
not prohibit. Intoxicants can be obtained
with the same ease al before the probi-
bition law went into force. The country
is covered with 'speak-easies' and blind
tigers and the State is the loser in
taxes. Furthermore, prohibition begets
hypocrisy. A well-regulated saloon. con-
Quoted by respectable eitizens under DO
lice supervision, is the best solution OF the
whole question"

DID THESE GET INTO
THE WRONG PEW?
WouId-Be Census Bureau Clerks Fail
to Show Up For Exam Here
Papers Arrived.

Secretary Parsons of the local civil
service board was prepared Saturday
to preside at the examination of two
applicants for positions in the census
bureau in Washington, and had the
papers and everything required to put
them through an up-to-date civil serv.
ice examination. The only thing
lacking, however, for the examination
to take place was the presence of the
would-be appointees.
1t now is thought that they wished
to become census enumerators and
got into the wrong pew. The exam
ination for which they applied tc
Washington for blanks to fill out con
sisted of a number of subjects includ
ing typewriting.
The humor of the situation was en-
hanced by the notice received by the
local civil service board calling atten
tion to the possibility of the loca
| board not having sufficient question
sheets for all those who wish to tax,
the examination. But there were NOR
than enough sheets-considering tn,
fact that no one showed up for tn
examination.

BAD FOR SANTA FE COUNTY
Fight on Forestry Service Is Led
by Senator Hepburn
of Idaho.
Special to The New Mexican.


Washington, D. c., March THE
senate committee on territories today
completed its hearings on the state
hood bill and votel to report it to the
Senate on Friday of this week. There
will be no minority report. While
it can not be substantiated, yet, it is
rumored that no provision is made for
the payment of the railroad bonded in
debtedness of Santa Fe county, on the
ground that Santa Fe county has fail
ed to pay interest on its court house
and other just bond issues, whose le-
gality was never questioned.
Upon the conclusion of the reading
of the agricultural appropriation bill
in the Senate, various senators start
ed a fight against the forest service,
Senator Hepburn of Idaho leading the
fight.
Delegate Andrews secured pension
from the pension bureau for E. Flor
ence Ward, of $12 month, from April,
