When you buy a De Laval you have positive assurance that your
machine will be good for at least twenty years of
service, during which time it will save every pos-
sible dollar for you and earn its original cost over j
and over again. J

The liquor plank of the Dem-
ocratic platform adopted last
week at San Antonio is the most
important, because nothing else
is going to get much attention
until the liquor question is settl-
ed—at least to the measurable
extent that the conservatives,
pro. and anti., have found the
grounds of a compromise.
The large majority given to
Governor Colquitt in the recent
primary proves one of two things,
or both: that a great many
North Texas prohibitionists vot-
ed for Mr. Colquitt because they
were tired of the constant agi-
tation of the prohibition question
to the exclusion of everything
else ; or, that a great many an-
tis. voted this time for Colquitt
who opposed him two years ago,
and a year later voted for state-
wide prohibition.
The liquor plaice refered to,
demands that the next legislature
pass, a law requiring that saloons
be closed from 9:30 p. m. to 6:00
a. m. The liquor plank also pro-
vides for a local option measure
under which towns and com-
munities may determine whether
or not whiskey may be sold
the drink to be drunk on
premises.
The Enterprise does not
lieve there are many important
’ reasons for or against either one
' of these proposed measures.
We do believe, however, that
Governor Colquitt was wise in in-
’ sisting on having the antis, put
’ them into the platform ; for the
pros, have a majority in the legis-
lature and they certainly would
have put through an act or acts
that would have been much more
radical. They will try some radi-
cal measures, anyway ; but the
conservative pros.—the ones who
supported Colquitt—will be con-
tent with putting the governor’s
platform proposition through.
Thus, by this compromise,
there will be a chance to have
some constructive legislation
along other lines. This would
have been impossible as long as
there was a fight over the liquor
question.
