That Prohibition Amendment
 The "Wets" Amendment

The "Wets" have an amend ment-let us notice what it seems to propose. I say "seems" be- cause it is so ambiguous as to re- quire. if it should become a law, the proverbial Philadelphia law yer" and the courts to decide what it does provide.
 Though spoken of as the Eight Year Prohibition Law" " and artfully designed to catch some Prohibition votes, it is not a Prohibition, but a local op- tion" law. The friends of state wide prohibition should certainly vote against it.
 This seems to be very narrow local option. It provides for pre- cincts and "parts of precincts" remaining wet if they so vote.
The Holbrook news., 1914-10-24

One block devoted to the liquor business in Winslow would be enough to flood with wetness the whole county. Is not the pres ent complaint of Holbrook that the money goes to and the booze comes from Winslow? Are not all the farmers and up-country towns concerned to have the shipping points dry" and free from temptation when their sons bring stock for shipment?
 This wet" amendment means discarding both the state unit and the county unit and substi- tuting only precinct option.
 Agaln, It seems to mean the repeal of the present local option law. The Arizona Self Govern ment League have announced. through the var1ous newspapers of the state, their endorsement of the present local option law of Arizona. They call it "per- feet" and use other terms of praise.
 Why then do they subtiIly seek the repeal ot the county unit features of that law? And let us make no mistake. If this amendment carries, and HoIbrook goes wet" November 3rd, Hol- brook is immediately and for elght years thereafter wet. |" Saloons may immediately open and no local or county barriers can be raised for eight years. This certainly seems pernicious and reactionary legislation. To defeat it. vote "1O3 No"
 Respectfully,
 CARL M. Ross.

WHY WE DO NOT PUBLISH
 SOME THINGS

During the last two weeks the writer has received two unsigned communications, which were ap- parently written in a disguised hand. These communications were of such q nature that they would not have been published even if they had been signed.
 Many items are left out of The NEWS for various reasons, but not because the writer or the editor are afraid of being whip ped, or getting a lecture. The average newspaper man is not a coward in any sense of the word-be goes up against" all kinds ot "things''-but should we allow the use of the articles mentioned above, we would prove to be moral towards. and feel that if we had to use such arti- cles to fill the columns of the paper It would be better to get out of business.
 The ordinary newspaper man has the good of his home and his town at heart, and many items which would make sensational reading, but bad advertising. are omitted. Sometimes the feelings of a wife, mother, son or daugh- ter are taken into consideration. as the person who is brought in the limelight usually has such re- latives, and a little sentiment hurts no man. The gossipping neighbors should have a little more of the same charity they
