State photographer Here

l., r. Burgess OF Colorado Springs
was in town Saturday masuring the
current in the Arkansas River. He
is the state photographer in an
interview with him last Sunday we
CLEANED the followed facts.
The storms centering ut La Jun
ta caused two flood tides In the
river recently. The first was last
Friday at Gp. IN. when the gauge
showed a height of 5.S5. The river
rose four feet in the two hours
from A to on that day. The river
then dropped 3.5 feet and rose
again the next day, measuring 5.2O
at noon on Saturday, rising about
two feet between the hours of 8
and l2. At the time of last Sun
days measurement the current in
the river was running three miles
an hour.
This service is carried on by the
state from Leadville to this pOnt
largely for the sake of irrigation pro
jects in distributing water to the

CANDIDATES
CONE out IN THE OPEN

ential candidates are declaring
their convictions is q refreshing
sign of the mes. The era of dip
lomecy appears ta be over and pre-
sidential platforms for 1924 bid fair
to be nee Of ell ambiguity i is
one thing that the modern Europ-
can cannot understand, how the
American can declare his policies
so frankly and come out into the
open. =
The platforms for the coming
year will heye something definite
to say something tangible to
stand on. With the threat, ever in
creasing, to dodge the old parties,
on the part OF tie voter, suDter-
fuges will pay less than ever this
year.
It ci,peasi3, at 1his writing, that
the prohibition problem, or rather
q new notification Goctiiae Will
form prominent plank in the
Democratic party Gov. Al Smith
of New York, or Senator Under
wood of Alabama or Gov. sii2er OF
New Jersey or Gov Ritchie OF
Maryland will probable head a wet
democracy Ii something should
turn up to frighten the democrats
from their humid policies then Me
Adoo, so long prominent, would
head dry democracy. 1t is pos
sible that law violation will so
greatly increase in New York State
as to drive the vets to shelter and
force New York State back into the
Union, but just now anti-prohiblt-
ion sentiment is on the rapid in
crease.
The republicans, however, afe
committed to the policy ofprohib-
ftion and the sanctity OF the cor
stituton, President Harding has
been as open, frank and persistent
for the Eighteenth Amendment az
Smith etal. have been opposed
Harding has never swerved hairs
breadth from his position.
Ford, probable nominee OF athird
party, has also declared his portion
in no equivocable terms As to
his personal attitude he says, 'Pll be
glad to tell you what i th nix of
prohibition. Booze never did any
good any place, any time. That's
the way l feel about it.. | never
drank drop in my life. an never
expect to drink drop" Ford
neither smokes nor drinks nor
allow the use of liquor or tobacco
in his industry anywhere. Even
more important is Ford's conviction
that the 18th amendment can be
enforced, When the State or Nat
ion failed to enforce the law at
Ecorse near Detroit, the worst rum
running section in America, Ford s
detectives stopped it entirely in a
weeks time.
Fords solution of law enforcement
is simple and inexpensive. Merely
put the idle army or navy to work
and keep them at it till there are no
more violations. In the meantime
educate the people on loyalty to
the Nation and to right,
If two such dry leaders as Hard
ing and Ford enter the political
arena, divided as they probably
would be on the question OF a
world court, the republican forces
might be divided and send wet
democracy into victory, unless there
should be enough dry democrates
to weeken the position of the vets,
Should the Democrats nominate
a dry man like McAdOo the issue
would be still more complicated

Blamed for Code Delay

D Work on the building code, which,
together with plumbing and electrical
codes, is to be submitted to the COM
mon council for adoption as soon as
all have been completed, is being held
UP by the failure of Mayor A. M.
Paonessa to appoint building COM
missioner to succeed Commissioner r.
j. Dixon, who has resigned.
The commission is one of five men,
bers, some of whom are out of the
city. Because Dixons successor has
not been named, there has been diff
ficulty in gettin ga quorum to tran
sact business.
Mayor Paonessa has on numerous
occasions tried to hasten work on the
code. but unless a new commissioner
is named soon. the work will prob
ably be delayed longer.

TEXAS LEAGUERS TO
DETERMINE STAND ON
DRAFT FUSS SUNDAY

Mineral Wells. Tex, Jan. 13.-Tcxas
League magnates were arriving late
Saturday for the meeting here Sunday,
announced as primarily a schedule-ar-
ranging session, but suspected of being
more a council of war regarding the
stand the Texas League will take in
the minOr-major league controversy re-
garding the draft of optional players.
Matters have reached a state, it is be-
lieved, where every league in the coun-
try will have to declare its allegiance
to one side or the other, the major
leagues on one hand and five allied
scrappy minor leagues on the other.
Several Texas Leaguers are known
to be opposed to the major leagues
regained power in drafting back men
released to the little leagues on option.
Whether these magnates are in the ma
iority cannot be said. It's all likely to
come out in the wash Sunday.
The advance guard Of Texas League
club owners and officials who arrived
here Saturday included President DOak
Roberts of the league. President Harry
Benson Of the San Antonio Club, Pres
ident n. L. Leopold of Galveston, Pres
ident Ike Sabloskv of Dallas and Sec
retary-Managcr Walter Morris of Dali
