Mayor Bennett on Law Enforcement

Mayor w. W. Bennett, of Rockford, recently re-

some of those who voted for Prohibition in that state
feared that too strict enforcement OF the Prohbl-

Bennett wrote in part, follows

Inemciency and Drink

Nh Magnus W. Alexander, Of Lynn Mass in an
address before convention OF macmn1sts IN New
York said that after extensive investigation COW
erinp large number OF factories both III America and
Europe he found that about Is per cent OF Workrnen
are constantly moving from one point to another In
order to increase the shop force by 100 men tor one
year said Mr. Alexander 1t is necessary to hire go
men, In other words, $50 out Of every go men IN
the plants investigated held their jobs only a short
time and most of them discharged for neflc-
iency
Mr. Alexander is silent to the cause OF the IN
efficiency but we learn from other sources, equally
reliable that the majority of men who lose their po-
sitons are discharged because OF drink The loss to
these men in wages cannot be computed, but the fl
nancial loss to the factories mentioned is estimated
at $4,000 year.
Mr. Alexander's report is spoken of as "startlng

Number of Saloons in Chicago

Our friend the editor of the indicator wastes
lot of valuable time figuring out from various govern
ment reports that there "shrinkage in the
number of saloon licenses in Chicago last year
No one possessing the slightest acquaintance with
conditions in this rum-rdden city, will dispute this.
The facts these. There exactly 7,I52 saloons
in Chicago in 1913 and there exactly 7,I52 sa-
looms in Chicago in 1914, and to the indicator
the trouble of further figuring in the future will
add that there will be exactly 7I52 saloons in Chicago
in 1915.
The reason is simple. The number of saloon Ii
is limited to 7I52 and there always several
thousand applications than licenses granted.
There is to be some waiting to step into the
shoes of any Chicago saloonkeeper who for any
goes out of business. Not until the people of Illinois
vote Chicago dry will there be any shrinkage in the
number of saloon licenses in this city.
And yet Chicago is not so bad as it might be.
Before saloon may be opened in residence district
petition signed by majority of the residents in that
district must be presented Under this benign ar
rangement, thrty-eight square miles of Cook county

having the same height as the founda-
tons built thereon. At the western ex-
tremity, the buildings were erected on
the tops OF huge rocks, fallen from the
roof Of the cave. Here the talus Is
narrow, or wanting, and no rooms were
constructed in front OF these rocks. Thus
the terrace rooms on the lowest level are
found along the middle section of the
cave, where the floor is highest and
where the great fallen rocks still re-
main in sheltered places.
Deep under the debris which covered

which leads by a gradual slope to the
center of the village. This pathway
extends parallel with the high. front walls
of Kiva and, passing to a large rock In
which footrests were cut, enters Gin
Palace through a narrow court between
high walls. From this court ascent to
the level Of the cave floor was accom-
plished by Nmeans OF a ladder, which
could be drawn in when danger necessi-
tated. The floor of the main entrance
was hardened adobe, the outer edge Of
which was held by a roughly laid retain
ing wall. resting at the lower end on logs

and SO feet in depth at its widest point
There are ia rooms in the village. 1t
has been shown that at least fourteen of
these rooms were used as mortuary
chambers or for storage.
The largest village in the park, and
perhaps the largest known to have been
built by this strange race OF people, Is
Cliff Palace. 1t lies in an eastern spur
Of Cliff canyon. and is an enormous cav,
ern, the roof of which arches nearly one
hundred feet above the floor.
The United States government has
done all II could to call the attention OF
its people to the ancient home OF the
cliff jewellers and to make the ruins &c
cessible The description of the Gin

1.-THE floor Of this cavern is elevated
several hundred feet above the bottom

west, looking across the canyon to the
opposite side, in full view of great
promontory. on top of which stands the

the recess in which Cliffs Palace is built
Is practically covered with buildings, some
OF which, especially those at each end,
extend beyond the shelter OF the cave
roof. The total length of the Cliff Pal
ace is approximately 800 feet.
THE under side of the roof Of rock
arching over Cliff Palace is comparative

cleavage extends approximately north

think the cliff jewellers were extermi-
mated, however, but believes that, about
the time they abandoned their unfinished
fortress they had become strong enough
to leave their mountain refugees and
mingle with the tribes of the lowlands.
After that, perhaps, they became ANAL
gamated with the various Indian races
and lost their separate identity.
At Moki Spring, a short distance from
these ruins, there are a number Of other
tree-grown mounds very similar in ap-
pearance to the one Just excayated. Here
and there cue stones are exposed in
these. 1t is possible that there is bur-
led city beneath these mounds. DR..
Fewkes hopes next year to find whether
or not there is a buried and prehistoric
city concealed beneath.
America has nothing more marvellous
to offer than the ruins of the cliff dwell

mystery and romance, wrapped in Sc
