WHY SIGN THE PLEDGE by Hon.
William Jennings Bryan.
Because it marks the crossing of
the line into the total abstinence
of Brotherhood.
Because it strengthens one in the
honors of temptation.
BecaCs it encourages others to abb
stain from Intoxicating LIQUOR.
A pledge is merely the written evil
dence of an obligation already taken.
A man can hardly call himself a
total abstainer who has never inward
ly resolved not to drink.
There is nothing humiliating about
pledge. Every man who becomes
member of fratnity or society Of
any kind binds himself by solemn
obligation. Every official is sworn in
to office by subscribing to a pledge
to support the constitution obey the
laws, and perform the duties per
tanning to his office.
The church member takes upon
himself certain obligations.
Marriage is solemnized by ait ex-
change of pledge.
Why should the man who intends
to abstain from intoxicating liquors
refuse to let it be known.
j In hours of temptation it is q
source Of strength to feel that his
word is ont and others expect him
to live dp TO it.
If one is resolved not to drink tbs
signing eff the pledge is an aclIow-
/ legement Of the fact, informs large
number eff people and extends the in
1uence of the example.

COMMISSIONERS

Editor Tho Star: Referring TO the
board OF county commissioners and
their recent squabbles. / want TO
thank The Star for its Just criticism.
II certainly would be refreshing
to have the new board discard all
petty grievances for the good OF
the entire city and county.
As n successful business man, Mr..
Gaines surely makes a fine politi.
clan. Ever since the Spanish. Amer.
lean war. all he has tried to control
are the votes of the veterans.
ON the other hand. both Mr.. Brown
and Mr. Paul have made good in
their respective lines of ondeavor.
l am convinced that both OF these
business men have no personal axes
to grind. on the contrary. nm
sure they will try hard 10 give tho
public and particularly the taxpaver
a good, harmonious service and work
Tor the best interests OF the com.
Now, II Mr., Gaines can see the
light, the county machinery should
run quite smoothly.

.Herico Sees the Light

THE inauguration today of Plutarco l..
i Gales as president of Mexico should
make November so a memorable date in
the history, not of Mexico alone, but of
North America. or course the bearing
Of this event upon the affairs Of the United
States will be secondary only 10 its bear
ing upon the future of Mexico itself.
For the first time since the overthrow
of the autocratic Diaz, a succession TO the
Mexican presidency that has been both
peaceful and constitutional has been
effected. The will of a majority of the
Mexican people has been politically ex-
pressed without recourse TO arms or in
trigue. In this case the majority will Is
proven TO be n distinctly liberal will, Gales
being the champion of labor and the small
farmer.
Beyond being a personal triumph for
Gales, his election and Inauguration is
tribute to his predecessor, the retiring
president, Alvara Obregon. Obregon came
in as a conqueror. In office, however, he
did not seek personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT and
the perpetuation of his own power. In
stead. he worked TO make possible the
return by his people TO constitutional
methods of self-government.
In the Northern view it now seems rs
if the long nightmare of warfare and dark
plotting in Mexico were ended. 1t now
seems as if the Mexican people rather
than Mexican politicians, were in power.
No development outside of this country
itself could mean more to the United
States. This is true for the average citi-
zen. who wants no more than Square
DEAL in Mexico or in other foreign coun-
try, whatever would-be exploitationists
and concessionaries on this side of the bor-
der may think about it.
The Star has faith now more than ever
before in the future of Mexico. and in the
future of amicable and profitable business
and other relations between the citizens of
that nation and the citizens of this one.
