done on the 18th Of February Of this
year; the saloons being voted out by
the unanimous ballot Of the city COM
mission. Contrary to the predictions
of many, business conditions have not
been apparently affected adversely in
the least practically all Of the SO To-
cations were within few weeks oc-
cupied with new lines Of business.
Some of the more out Of the way
places, of course, had to wait longer
for tenants.
THE general effect on other lines
Of business has been beneficial rather
than contrary. Money that went for
liquor now goes for groceries, dry
goods, clothing, lumber, payments Or
little homes, etc. practically every
line of business has shared in the benz
efits. Inquiry. among merchants re-
veals the fact also that collections
are better since the closing Of saloons
BEST of all, however, Is the vast
reduction in the amount of liquor con-
sumed and the approved condition OF
many families that bore the brunt OF
all the sacrifices and hardships chare.

There has been, OF course. some at

annually; this was an average of near

FIBER FACTORY NEWS

Word comes from Mr.. Raymond, of
the Fiber Factory that he is now push
ing the work on the new machines
and as soon as he get things in shape
he will come to Tucumcari to see
about the erection Of the new build
ings for the factory.
He was delayed on account Of the
insuranCc companies taking their time
in paying the losses. He finally ac-
cepted the full amount less five per
cent and is now ready to talk business
and expects to have the buildings
built separately so that IL one catches
on fire the whole thing will not burn
as IL did this time. Another thing
will make it much better is that the
building will he fire-proof or as nea.
as possible.
Some Of the old machinery has been
removed from the debris and sent east
in hopes they can be worked over and
made good enough to use in the work
here. II was thought two or three OF
the machines will be all right.
We have had numerous inquiries
i'm regard to when the factory will
be rebuilt, so now it seems we are al
last in position to say as soon as ths
buildings are ready the machinery viii
be here and work will resume.

to the publication of letter received
by me from Mr.. Vorenberg of Wagon
mound, brother Of our townsman, A.
Vorenberg, and | presume the letter
will be published this week. MIR. Vor-
enberg has furnished the other side
with a copy of the letter to me In an
swer to my inquiry 10 him asking
whether prohibition was satisfactory
to the people Of Wagonmound. He
stated that il was not satisfactory and
that there had been bootlegging. In
considerable correspondence which
| have had to n number Of nearby
towns, have received only two let
ters from persons who said that pro-
hibition was not satisfactory to the
people.
We will have, however, from Wag.
onmound, man, Hon. Bias Sanchez
who is satisfied with prohibition and
will come here and help us put Tu.

people who do not believe in loca
option and we have many of them her,

FL Paso, Texas. Oct. 2, 1915
Mr.. II. II. McElroy,
Attorney at Law,
Tucumcari, n. NJ.
Dear SIR
II anyone in Tucumcari is fearful
that prohibition will hurt the town
financially, he should visit Arizona.
The Arizona prohibition law which
went into effect at the beginning Of
this year is the most drastic In the
United States and it is working well.
In the III Paso Herald Of October |,
1915, a press dispatch appears as fol-
lows
Phoenix, Ariz. Oct. ARIZONA banks
during the past six months have made
gain in resources of S3,38l 1881 20.
as shown by the semi~annual figures
compiled by the state bank controller
j. G.. Callaghan.
"This gain of more than = per cent
reflects prosperity which has come
to Arizona during period when east
ern states were feeling u business de-
preston as result of the European
war. As an evidence of the prosper
ity which has struck Arizona, the
bank deposits during the six months
period show gain of $2,93l .204.
THE 46 state banks reported u gain
of s2,l5s.4S7.2 20 in deposits and amount
due banks, and the IL national banks
AN increase of $772,7l7.l6 in the same
item. making total of over $2,9OO.-
900. Undivided profits of state banks
increased $50, LAS during the year.
while national banks reported "a gain
of $50, 9,775.Si in surplus and undivided
profits"
Perhaps some persons will deny that
prohibition has anything TO do with
the increasing prosperity of Arizona
nut they must admit that prohibition
does not prevent prosperity. As n
matter of fact, the present experience
of the Arizona banks is "A common ex.
perience of banks in prohibition ter
ritory all over the United States. The
evidence is incontrovertible and con
elusive that prohibition does increase
bank deposits and the facts show thai
the increase comes largely from peo
pie of small means many Of whom
did not have bank accounts prior u
the advent of prohibition. II there ar'
any doubling Thomases in Tucum
earl, their doubts can be dispelled b!
interviewing the merchants of towns
of Arizona who will tell them tina
their business has improved under pro
hibition, that their collections are bet
ter and that former dead-beats no,
pay cash. The sheriffs of the state i
general and the sheriff of Cochis
county in particular will tell anyon
investigating the matter that ther
has been big decrease in the numbe
of prisoners in Arizona jails since tn
state went dry. II Is well known tha
many of the jails in Kansas have ha
few or no prisoners for years and ths
some Of them have been converted
other uses, some of the counties fine
ing jails no longer necessary.
The liquor business and the vi'
which goes with II are the only thinl
in Tucumcari that prohibition WI
hurt.
In this connection, the following le
ter from the mayor of Des Moine
Iowa, to the editor of the New II
public is interesting and corrobor
tive:
