DENVER MAN on PROHIBITION
Places Where Bars Stood Now Being
Used BY Some Other Business.

The Wall Street Journal in a re-
cent issue said:
Nv. ]. Barker, vice president and
general manager of the Denver Gas
& Electric Light Company. has been
in New York. In speaking about
Prohibition in Colorado he said:
1.-The putting out of BUSINESS of so
many saloons was regarded as a SER
ious matter at first, but by careful
checking we have discovered that
practically every place formerly run
as a bar Is now being used by some
other business and n many cases the
consumption of gas and electric cur
rent is greater than under former
conditions.
II was asked recently why our cur
rent sales were so large when there
were no bars at night for the men to
frequent. My guess was that the men
who formerly spent the evening at the
bars now stayed at home, sat up late
at night reading and drinking root
beer and so more than made up for
the heretofore legalized liquor con-
sumption by maintaining the stand
ard of demand for electric current.
Denver has never been so much alive.
Buildings are going up on all avail
able sites, the banks report increases
In deposits and earnings and We e.
pect this year one of the largest tour.

CORRESPONDENTS TURN
DOWN INVITATION
Men Cannot Keep Up Pace With the
World and Drink the Mildest
Of Intoxicants.

August A. Busch, head Of the An
st. Louis, Mo-, invited the 400 special
newspaper correspondents attending
the Democratic national convention
In that city to partake Of mint juleps
at his country home in st. Louis
county. Mr.. Busch sent automobiles
to carry the correspondents 70 his
home, but fewer than 100 of the 400
correspondents accepted his hospitali-
ty, and more than a score Of automo-
biles engaged for the occasion went
away empty. One correspondent,
longtime personal acquaintance of Mr..
Busch, in written declination OF fhe
invitation, said in part:
Besides, Mr.. Busch, the time has
passed when newspaper men can keep
the pace of the fastest men In the
world, and NEEDLE with even the mild.
est of intoxicants. This fact is rec
ognized in the most practical way by
a large majority of the craft. During
last week at Chicago, when the pres.
sure OF work was tremendous, and the
weather abominable, was in con.
slant contact with the same body OF
correspondents who are heretoday,
and in all that time did not see even
one under the influence of drink.
81 hope to see the time come when
men of my calling will no longer be
exposed to the dangers which beset
the now recognized standards of hos.
pitality, but that the open handed
friendliness which l know you feel
toward your friends and mine, will
find some other form of expression"

"Are we Americans nation of

STEEL INDUSTRY STERNLY
AGAINST USE OF LIQUORS
Total Abstainers Are Given the Pref.
erence for Promotions.

Barely more than $50 years ago ev.
cry foundry had its "ale house boy"
described by Franklin. This person.
age rushed the can" continually twixt
bar and workshop. Even the father
of his country found II necessary to
keep a jug of whisky In shady cor
ner of the harvest field In order to
satisfy his workers, says the Grand
Rapids Press.
So swiftly has the tide turned
against liquor In business that now
brewery workers are about the only
ones who demand and receive drinks
during the days work. The steel in
dustry, where heat reigns and danger
ever threatens, has set itself sternly
against the use of liquor during work
ing hours. In addition most of them
give preference In promotions to total
abstainers.
Some of the mightiest corporations
In America are now proceeding with
well calculated temperance campaigns
exerting a profound influence upon
their men, and through them upon
still wider circles. At the Joliet plant
of the Illinois Steel company, for in
stance, this notice Is posted:
ITO the employees of the Joliet
works, Illinois Steel company:
For the promotion of safety and
welfare 1t is hoped that all employees
will avoid the use of intoxicating
liquors.
"Unde- the rules of the Joliet works
any employee who uses intoxicating
liquor while on duty will be dis
charged.
I'm making promotion In any de-
partment of the plant superintendent
of departments and foremen will Sc
lect for promotion only those who do
not use intoxicating liquors."
And the United States Steel Corpor-
alton at Gary flashes an electric sign
which might have been written by a
committee composed of Billy Sunday,
Purley Baker and Frank Hanly:
did booze ever do you any good?
did booze ever get you a better
job?
did booze ever contribute any
thing to the happiness of your fami-
ly?"

Editorial Comments.

The Democrats continue to ignore
Mr.. Hughes speeches to the extent
that all they do Is to sputter and gasp.
Let II be conceded there are really
strong grounds for the opinion that
President Wilson may carry Texas
next November. II these indications
are taken at. their full worth, some
enthusiasts will soon be going out to
bet that the tide will sweep on until
Mississippi and Alabama are also en-
rolled In the Democratic column.
Many big Democrats willing and
ready to speak for Wilson are care
full that their money shall not say any
thing on his side.
President Wilson says he Is utter
ly Indifferent as to his reelection.
Perhaps that explains good many
things nobody has heretofore been
able to understand.
Help me. Cassius, or sink" For
"Cassius" read Congress"
The notion seems to be that the
Democratic national chairman Is claim
ing more than he will get, but not any
more than he will need.
AS further evidence that he is warm
Hearted and intensely human, Mr..
Hughes likes apple pie.
No man Is going to be elected-or
re-elected-to high Office by votes
gained from States rights declara-
tons this late In the game. The
States rights question was settled
some fifty years ago to the evident
satisfaction of considerable major
ity.-Kansas City Star.
Adequate preparedness Is not mill
tarism. 1t Is the essential assurance
of security. It Is a necessary safe
guard of peace" Candidate Hughes
has left nothing to be said on this
subject. He has snuffed out counter
argument at the very outset.
"Are we Americans nation of
bunglersT asks the New York Sun.
1t would be very harsh to answer
this in the affirmative-and. anyway,
we elect a Democratic president only
every once in while.
Charles e. Hughes cannot get so far
away from Washington that the men
in charge of the chariot Of government
there do not feel the jolting Of his
criticisms. In fact, the Democratic
leaders ut the capital city show symp-
toms of sea-sickness from the way in
which the ex-justice Of the Supreme
court has shaken them up. Mr..
Hughes is pursuing the only proper
method, which Is first to take the
deadwood out Of the way so that the
path to righteous and propitious gov
eminent may be made clear.

VILLA AIDED BY WILSON'S
FAVOR AND BACKING.

In March last, villa made q
raid into American territory. He
was a bandit leader whose
career Of successful Infamy had
been greatly aided by Mr.. VIII
sons favor and backing. He
was at the head of Mexican SOL
diers, whose arms and munitions
had been supplied to them In
consequence Of Mr.. Wilson's re-
versing Mr.. Taft's policy and
lifting the embargo against arms
and munitions into Mexico. They,
attacked Columbus, New Mexico.
and killed number of civilians
and a number of United States
troops. On the next day the
president Issued an announce
ment that adequate forces would
be sent in pursuit Of villa with
the single object Of capturing
him." On April 9Th, the an
nouncement was made from the
White House that the troops
would remain In Mexico until
villa was captured. It wns
furthermore announced in the
press dispatches from Washing
ton that he was to be taken
dead or alive" Fine words
only-they meant nothing. He
Is not dead. He has not been
taken alive.-From speech of
Col. Theodore Roosevelt, deliv-
cred at Lewiston, Maine, in be-
half Of Charles Il. Hughes.

THE NEUTRALITY
OF PONTIUS PLATE.

But as soon as the need for
deeds arose, Mr.. Wilson forgot
all about 'the principle he held
dear" He promptly announced
that we should be neutral in
fact as well as In name, in thought
as well as in action" between
the small, weak, unoffending ma
ton and the large, strong nation
which waA robbing 1t Of Its SOW
ereignty and independence. Such
neutrality has been compared to
the neutrality of Pontius PLATE.
This Is unjust to Pontius PLATE,
who ut least gently urged mod
Grafton on the wrongdoer.-
From the speech of Col. Theo-
dore Roosevelt, delivered at
Lewiston, Maine, in behalf of
Charles e. Hughes.

WILSON'S i0NoBLE, UNsUc.
CESSFUL LITTLE WARS.

President Wilson tok Vera
Cruz In 1914, as we were official
iy informed at the time, to get
a salute for the flag, and to
prevent the shipment Of arms
into Mexico. He did not get his
salute. He did not prevent the
shipment Of arms. But several
hundred men were killed or
wounded; and then he brought
the army home without achIev-
ing either object. President
Wilson sent an army into Mexico
In 1916, az we were informed
at the time, TO get Villa "dead
or alive" They did not get him
dead. They did not get him
alive. Again several hundred
