CARI,ANzA SEES THE LIGHT

Thee seems to be a period of peace
between the United States and Mex
leo pending diplomatic measures
meanwhile the American govern
ment is wisely going forward In prep
aratlon for border protection.
II is plain enough that Gen. Car
rama has taken account Of his war
standing and realizes that II would
be only a few weeks til he would
lose out In an armed conflict with
the United States. lie now promises
to cooperate with American forces
to rid his country Of bandits and bids
for help OF this country to restore
order.
He must know by now that order
and protection OF American territory
and interests and the restoration Of
Industries In Mexico is all that the
United States wants.
so long as he listened to the muir
derous shouting OF his bandit coun-
trymen, he was stubborn in his at
titude but he has walked up from his
dream and has thrown his influence
against the bandit element, and If he
proves true he may see his country
saved. Naturally his friendship to-
ward this country has angered the
villa element, and his task now is to
subdue that crowd.

Gov. Ferguson is quoted as saying
that he hopes to see the time come
when laboring men will work eight
hours a day. have eight hours for
sleep. eight hours for rest and recre-
alton and get eight dollars day
That will be fine for us loboring
people, The capitalists who furnish
the machinery and the opportunities
for work, may have to turn their
plants over to us and give us all we
can make and pay us to take IT,
Eight dollars for eight hours work
will enable us to have a Jolly good
time during the eight hours of re-
creation Just as long as the boss's

IN Iuly 22nd YOU will find on your ticket the
question of submission and be asked to vote Tor
or against submission.
The question will read, "For the submission OF
IN amendment to the Constitution providing
for Statewide Prohibition" and you will be ex-
nected TO vote for or against this measure. If
Won wish to submit mark out the against the
submission clause.
We feel that every Democrat should vote Tor
this measure because il puts it on an oil year
when there is no other question before the peo-
pie.
You are not asked to vote for or against state
Wide prohibition, you are not asked to vote on
the liquor question at all: but you are asked II
Won are willing for the people of Texas to have
right to vote on this question later. Surely
no fairminded man will object to those who
want prohibition voting on that question later.
Some may say they do not believe it is the
proper time to vote on this question, and it may
not be. That is not for us to pass on. The
question is up and the fact faces us as to
whether or not you understand that the Legis-
Iature must submit the question of for or
against prohibition but you now only ask that
they do so.
We would suggest that every minister in this
county discuss this question from the pulpit at
one or the other services next Sunday and fully
explain the matter to their people that this oc-
cason may not be lost
Yours respectfully submitted,
H. ]. BRICE,
Chairman of the Prohibition Submission
Campaign for Scurry County, Texas.
