For the purpose or crystallizlng
sentiment In favor of dry Albu-
ouerque, about four hundred citizens
met at the high school at 3 o'clock
yesterday afternoon.
M. +. Hickey, acting as chairman
reviewed the effort OF Governor
Lindsey to have the Albnquerquc
council pass an ordinance closing the
saloons at o'clock. and to prevent
the sale Of liquor to soldiers either In
uniform or citizens clothes. and that
the sale of bottled goods be Drohib-
tied. also the refusal of the council
10 pass such an ordinance. and in
stead, having passed one permitting
saloons to keep open until 10 O'Clock
at night week days and until IL
O'Clock on Saturday nights.
This had been unsatisfactory to the
governor, and he had stopped the
expenditure of state money on the
guard camp land 1t is now serious
question" said Mr.. Hickey, "as to
whether it will be possible to secure
the location of the camp in Albu-
oueruue. There Is a movement Tor
its location at Santa Fe, and also an
effort being made to have it located
at Clovis, both of which towns have
complied with the law as to saloon
regulation Albuquerque. he said
had laid down on the job" He said
the council had passed a better ordi-
nance last night. recurring the sa-
looms to close at s o'clock every night
in the week; but he understood that
the mayor, who was not present at
the meeting, would veto the ordi-
nance, and he urged prompt action in
nrousing a sentiment so strong that
the people would back up the coun-
ell in passing II over his veto.
Agains the Journal.
Mr.. Hickey had a grievance against
the Morning Journal He said the
copy for the call for this meeting had
been left with the Journal for pub
lication, and although 1t promised to
do SO, the Journal had not published
the call. On the contrary. 1t had
stated that there had been talk OF
such a meeting, but that 1t was prob

Soon Is Forecast,

FAVORED BY PEASANTS
Political Situation in Spain
Complicated; Petrogfad Gov
ernment Likely to Force
Kronstadt's Submission.

Another day has passed without the
demoralized Germans along the
Ypres front making an effort to re-
gain the ground they lost in the
titanic drive of Field Marshal Haig's
forces last Thursday. South of Ypres
however, the Teutons heavily bonn
barded the British positions.
Aerial activity between the German
and British fliers continued Saturday.
Nine enemy machines were account
ed for by the British, who themselves
lost three.
There has been no fighting along
that part of the line. where the
French are facing the Germans, ris-
ing above the character of small sur
prise attacks. On the Chemin des
Danes the Germans early sunday
morning penetrated a small salient
west of Cerny, but almost Immediately
were driven out with the loss of men
made prisoner.
Fighting Soon to Resume.
In the Austro- Italian theater the
fighting Is being done entirely by the
artillery wings of the opposing armies.
There has been no attempt at a re-
sumption by the Italians of their great
offensive on the Carso front, although
1t is believed another great battle
probably Is not far distant.
In Macedonia, especially along the
vardar river sector. artillery duels
are in progress.
The situation at Kronstadt, where
the council of workmen,s and SOL
tiiers delegates Is still defying the
provisional government remain tense.
apparently as its first step in carrying
out its threat to take resolute action,
the government has recalled various
official from Kronstadt. A hearten-
ing sign in the crisis there is the fact
that the fleet in that port is reliable
and can be depended on to aid the
geyernment.
Slav Republic Likely.
The movement for the establish
ment of republic in Russia has been
joined by the congress Of peasants
delegates of all Russia.
The situation in Spain which re-
suited in the resignation of the min
istry is still acute. The Marquis
Prieto has declined to retain the
premiership, and the belief prevails
that Eduardo Dato, a former premier
of conservative leanings, will be en-
trusted with the formation of a
cabinet.
As a result of the recent lombard
ment of Ostend and probably in fear
that another operation of similar
character might be carried out against
the port, the Germans have removed
all large ships from the harbor, which
presents q deserted appearance.

DR.. David r. Boyd thought to waste
time on the question of whether the
young guardsmen should be protected
was preposterous, when 1t was as
simple as the proposition Of two and
two make four; that of course they
should not be made the prey of hu-
man vultures. The highest physical
fitness and the highest spiritual
courage would be required of them
in the performance of their duties.
Mrs. John Wilson, president of the
Womans club, said she believed that
she voiced the sentiment of the wom-
en- of Albuquerque when she said they
all stood for the protection of the
boys in the army. and II any of them
differed with her, she had no apology
to make.
Law Being Violated.
1t was cited as evidence that the
law was not being enforced, that a
man in uniform had been seen on
the streets of Albuquerque in a
drunken condition by group of
women, to whom he had been obnox-
ious.
A. B. McMillen, with q keen sense
of the laws elasticity and uncertain
ty, cited the danger that the ordi-
nance passed Saturday night by the
council might be repealed, even If it
had the good fortune to be passed
over the mayors veto. Back of the

must be massed, he said, or Albu-
querque would not get the canton
