as matter of fact, the majority of
the household staff have followed the
royal example of total abstinence
throughout the war
1t is rather curious to note, how
ever, that alcoholic drinks of all kinds
can still be obtained within what are
legally the Palace Grounds. The
verge" of Buckingham Palace, which
is administered by the Lord Steward s
department, stretches in two places
as far as the Thames, and embraces
considerable business property, in
cluding number of saloons. The
licenses of these are controlled by the
Kings Board-of-the-Gren Cloth, and
the Master of the Royal Household is
the chairman of the licensing court,
which has just held it's annual session
and approved the renewal of all the
licenses. Thus there is the anomaly
of a royal teetotal residence under the
roof of which licenses for the sale of
intoxicants have just been issued.

KING GEORGE IS
LEADING TEE7OTLER
AMONG ROYALTY
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, April 29.-The banning OF
alcohol from the Royal Household will
fall lightly on King George, who
according to court officials, is almost
an abstainer even in normal times. He
has occasionally taken a small glass
of claret with his luncheon, but more
often he preferred aerated water. At
dinner, burgundy and champagne
were always served but the King
frequently tasted neither one and new
er INDUCED in more than a minute
quantity.
The Queens taste in alcoholic bev-
erages is as restricted as the Kings,
while Princess Mary scarcely knows
the taste of wine.
Since the ban on alcoholics at Court
was promulgated, the energies of the
kitchen staff have been turned to de-
vising various palitable temperance
drinks. The usuaI paiUnmene "wtne-
list" is still made out daily and laid
on the Kings table in it's customary
silver frame, but the list of available
drinks is limited to lemonade, ginger
beer, soda water, fruit cups, and the
Kings favorite, barley watre.
Although the royal wine cellars,
with their almost priceless store of
vintage wines, are technically fasten-
ed up for the duration of the war, they
are not really kept sealed, for period
ical entrances have to be made, as
special temperatures and humidities
must be maintained in various COM
partments, according to the character
of the wines stored there.
But it is fairly certain that not a
single bottle will be opened, nor any
tap of the countless great barrels
turned, until the King gives the word.
For the royal cellars are managed in
business-like fashion, and every pint
removed from shelf or cask must be
shown on the ledgers with proper en-
dorsement.
For the present, all these ledgers
and stock-books are clasped on their
shelves, and the bookkeepers and
wine-butler's assistants have been as
signed to other duties about the place.
The King was most particular to di-
rect tahat no one employed in the
wine cellars should be dismissed as
a result of his ban on alcohol. Other
posts were found, at the same wages,
for all those displaced, some in the
new kitchen department which pro-
vides lemonade and barley water fo:
ne court.
The Kings ban does not prevent
any member of the Royal household
from purchasing and drinking aIco-

sometimes we hear, to con-
stantly prate about demo

Just look at it now; can any
thing be more convincing
(they say; than the specta-
Gle of three men running for
Governor? Why, every citi-
zen, or any citizen can run
for Governor-that's what
we stand for.
Yes; that sounds good, but
what has been, and is the
practice? All three of the
candidates are flirting around
the City leaders; they all
want to be the choice Of the
City leaders, as each knows
it to be the first perquisite to
get these leaders to win.
This is only driving at
democracy; it is apparent
only. and nothing real. De-
mOcracy and the people have
very little to do with the
case-it is the organization
lineup or nothing.
John NJ. Parker, with char
acteristic directness, said
that it was the Office holder
vs.. the people. The three
candidates now before the
public are professional Office
holders; and the only good
recommendation either of
them have, is that it is not
discreditable to hold Office.
Of course not, some of the
very best people hold Office,
but this does not qualify the
holder of one Office, to hold
all other Offices.
We are not selecting can
didates at this time; but it
does seem to be time to get
down to business and real
democracy, and quit driving
at democracy, and to select
one man that will represent
the entire state, and not one
who will owe allegiance to
any political organization.
Get some man who has had
long business relations and
dealings with all classes of
business men; a man who is
willing and able to represent
Louisiana, and not a man
who represents the City only,
or the country only. The
best way to get this particu.
lar candidate is to turn down
all old-line politicians and
ofice-holders, and pick a
man from out the business
field; a man who know BUSH
ness better than he does poll
tics.
