CONTEST IN REPUBLICAN, PRl-
MARY NARRoWs TO ONE Big
QUESTION.
TEMPERANCE QUESTION
NOT VET SETTLED
Prohibition Constitutional Amendment

Lesislature capitol Extension Is

Special 10 Times-Republican.

Special to Times
Des Moines, May 1e.-As the time
for the state primary draws near it
is evident that the majority of the
voters are now centering their inter-
est in just one issue, prohibition. Good
roads is attracting the attention Of
certain per cent. apparently. but the
one question over which there is a
vital interest is the wet and dry issue.
There has been a revival of interest
|in~this question in the past two weeks
which was not so evident earlier In the
campaign. Newspapers all over the
state are now calling attention to the
fact that it Is wet and dry fight with
the vets lined up for Lieutenant Gov
ernpr Harding and the drys Sividing
their support between Cosson and
Allen. H
Since the. saloons went out of the
state the first of the year there has
been disposition generally to regard
the temperance question as, settled UNI
til within the past few weeks when
it has become more and more appar-
ent that the governorship fight was
wet and dry fight whether the candl-
dates willeda sit; or no. sggs$, r. M. r
Capitol Extension Issue Dead
/ A good many Of the voters seemed
to have forgotten that in jordersto get
constitutional prohibition as voted for
by the last legislature It must again
be passed by the IN ext general assem-
bly, and then voted by the people. This
will not only2requtre dry governor
but dry legislature. 5t .~~r.5
+ It is recalled that two years as0
there was great hue and cry raised
over capitol extension but when Gov
ernor Clarke got out among the peo-
pile and showed them THAT it would
cost the average land owner only Il
comparatively small amount, and
when 1t became apparent that there
were larger questions at stake than
that OF capitol extension, thefssue war
not an important one at all when it
came to voting. Now that the last
days of the campaign are on i it is
again apparent that the questions in
volving taxation are not looming so
large as are the moral questions and
the interest is centering on whether
or not the state is to be wet or dry. +.

ENOUGH" IS CRY
OF NOTED SOLDIER
HERO OF MANY REVOLUTIONS
SIDESTEPS WAR. DOUBTS
TROUBLE WITH MEXICO.

Sam Dreben, recognized on the
southern border as one of the most
expert machine gun operators in the
country, participant in every revo-
luton of consequence in recent
years in Mexico and Nicaragua, and
more recently a scout for two months
with Gen j. j. Pershing's punitive
expedition, arrived in Chicago from
his home in Ell Paso, Texas, with the
announcement that he was finished
with the game of war.
Dreben has been described along
the border as "a demon in war and
a lamb in society" In addition to
being a fighter of note he has the
name of being Ell Paso's politest and
best-dressed man. He was member
of the regular army from 1889 to
1907, and saw service in the Philip
pines. He also had a part in the
Boxer troubles in China.
In Nicaraguan Revolt.
When the revolution broke out in
Nicaragua he became a colonel with
the forces of Estrada against Zelaya.
and was in charge of machine gun
company. Later he went to Hon
duras, prepared to take part in the
threatened troubles there, and when
they failed to materialize walked 700
miles from Beliz, British Honduras,
through Guatemala and into Cam
peche.
Dreben's next step in the war game
was to join the forces of Madero
against Diaz in the first revolution
in Mexico, in which he was placed in
his favorite position behind the ma
chine gun. Later he fought with
Orozco's forces against Madero, and
still later with the forces of Car
rama against those of Huerta. Dire
ben was friendly with Pancho Villa
and when the break came between
this bandit king and Carranza he re-
fused to join the forces of either and
went to Ell Paso, where he had made
many friends while a resident there.
Will Resist Temptation.

pleasure and business" said Dreben

SELL WRAPPERS
AT PRICE OF HAMS
Swift & Co. and Armour & Co. Fined
500 and $500 For Violating
New York State Law.

NEW York; fine of 500 was
imposed on Swift & Co. by Yon-
kers judge Tuesday. Swift & Co.
were accused by John D. Sylers, state
sealer of weights and measures, of
violating the Brooks net container
law in that they were selling hams
weighing II pounds 6 ounces net for
II pounds II ounces, the additional
6 ounces being the container. At the
rate of "a cents a pound, the present
price of ham, the consumer. is pay
ing about cents for the container.
The state law provides that the net
weight of the ham must be stamped
on the container and that customers
must not be charged for the contain
ers at meat prices. Last April Ar
mour & Co. were convicted of the
same offense and fined 5000. In that
suit Mr.. Eylers charged that Ar
mOur & Co. sell over $10,000,000
worth of ham yearly. A saving of
cents a ham to the consumer will
mean considerable in years bust
ness.

The price of paper has advanced

what the end will be. Grades of pa
