IN REGARD To MUNICIPAL OWNER

1t is figured that High Point would
save approximately $4,000 on the pow
er. and lights that are now purchased
from the North Carolina Public Service
Co. If this is the case it looks like the
height of folly for the city not to own
-. the whole business. When the city of
, High Point, through it's councilmen, sold
the arc light system, The Review point
ed out he disadvantage of the PROPOSE
tom and warned the councilmen OF the
step. For the city to sell it's street
: lighting systm to a. company and then
retain the incandeseent system is like
one man holding horse by the head
and another by falkland trying to make
the animal go forward. The revenue
from the incandescent system is essen
tial to pay the cost of the street or arc
lights, including the white way, yet the
present company was allowed a charter
to install a gas lighting system in di-
rect competition to the incandescent sys-
tenn, thereby cutting off the revenue that
should go towards paying for the arc
light system. The city at one time made
good money on the proposition and could

was on account of the old arc light sys-

it is not too late to remedy the mistake.

A clipping from a church paper has

"The preacher at the close of a

their debts stand up Every per-

preacher seated them and said:

\ N D the contest goes merrily on.
4 Douglas No. l liked to have monop-
olized the whole show, and would have
had the court not allowed other precints
to come in on motion Of Hunts attor-
neys after the Hunt side had rested
their case. AS it is, the contest may go
on all summer Then, after all, the
case is pretty sure to go to the u. S.
Supreme Court. By that time Camp
bell will have served his term, Hunt
will have lost what little influence he
had left over from last election and with
no more chance being governor Of Ari-
iona again than being the next Gar of
Russia. Snowflake is to step into the
limelight next. Some of our people
will have to go to Phoenix as witnesses.
The great majority of our people are
remarkably industrious and at this sea-
son of the year time lost can not be
replaced. The court correctly ruled
that Hunts attorneys wouldn't be al
lowed to present their Snowflake evil
dence on sWorn-to slips of paper emf
nently correct. It all means that Hunts
side is grabbing at straWs. The incon-
venience and lost to our people in being
forced to leave their daily avocations at
this especially precious time will be at
the bidding of a peeved disgruntled
political tin-horn striker for Hunt. Ev-
cry possible irregular technicality will
be taken advantage of, and to throw
out boxes because Of technical irregu-
larities will not prove fraud nor dishon-
esty, but will Of necessity disfranchise
honest voters. The people at large are
not to pay the expenses of this contest,
to be sure. Those who must attend
court as witnesses will suffer time lost,
inconvenience and out some money, not
to mention the unpleasant features of
such come-off. Hunt and Campbell
foot the courts bill, just as in civil
cases. Tin-horn politicians are the
curse of the nation. They know no
bounds when striving for partisan sell
fshness. They have utter disregard
for the manner in which they infict
their affliction on honest citizenry. To
denounce this gubernatorial contest as
disgusting is but expressing it mildly.

The Albuquerque Journal speaks with

The United States has been SO toler-

United States Villa has shown his hos
tility by the murder of all Americans
with whom he came in contact in Next
CO and by his raid on Columbus. ("
And. it is for us to remark, that New
Mexico's able U. S. Senator, Albert Bacon
Fall, was the first public official in the
United States who registered protest
against Mexico's banditism, as we'll as
pointing out the remedy. and he did this
