THE LIQUOR LICENSE.

Tomorrow in circuit court second test of the issue as to the whether liquor licenses shall prevail in Hot Springs, will be made in this city. The first test of the issue in county court resulted in favor of the petitioners for license. From that decision in county court an appeal has been talk en to the circuit court.
 The real issues involved it seems are as to what the adult white popu- Iation of Hot Springs is, or was at the beginning of this year, and whether the petitions filed in the county court contained a majority of such adult white population.
 The Going law was deficient m many respects, but in no other respect so deficient as in failing to determine standard of fixing the population Everybody believes he has correct estimate of the population. Nobody knows what it is. Government census reports are made each ten years, That is a standard for ten years.
 The issue is of vital importance to this resort. It was taken with such seriousness at the outset that com mittee of 100 citizens undertook the work of securing signatures to the petitions.
 There is a general sort of opinion prevalent that some of the saloon men are themselves against liquor license because they believe they could yio' late liquor law on a more reduced price thaa they could meet a liquor privilege. That opinion in itself is an insult to our officials If the license of liquor should meet a reversed fate, the general operation of blind tigers will not 6e an easy task for the oper ator. He will run amuck the law more frequently than he expects, ana he will find that juries have first obligation to the community.
 We believe that the closely regulat- ed sale Of liquor is the answer to the liquor problem until such time as the entire nation might feel disposed to grapple with the problem, and in that event one will feel more disposed to be governed in his stand by the moral view of the situation than now-when the closing of one municipality to the sale of liquor, especially if it be resort city, only makes for disad- vantage to one that another profits -lby.

THE WAR NEWS.

A\er but only few days of the progr\ss of the war situation, the resideht and visiting population of Hot sprqgs have come to realize that the news service of the Associated Press, as served them through the Sentinel-Record, is not alone the facts of the situation, but that it is the first news of the situation.
 The issuance of some "fxtra" edi- tions, that were not news editions. has also made the people cautious as to the purchase of other papers local ly than the Sentinel-Record. The fact that flaring headlines appear on a page marked Extra" in the corners, do not mean that there is news in the edition.
 Throughout tho progress of this situation the Sentinel-Record will is- sue extra editions WHENEVER THE SITUATION JUSTlFIES THE FIX IRA. That means there will be genuine developments, which We be- lieye the people would like to have immediately before extras arc issued The Associated Press serves no other paper in Hot Springs. Do not
  be deceived in this. The Associated Press gets the news FIRST There fore if there is at any time big news from the front, it will be given tho people ia the Sentinel-Reeord first.
 When you hear the cry of "Wuxtry! Wuxtry.' on the street look at the paper. If it is the Sentinel.Record it will be worth while if you are inter ested in following closely the war situation.
