A Panhandle paper carries large
headlines: "Dan Moody Reviews
personal Career of Ross Sterling."
It Is certainly refreshing to read
about THE MONEY POWER At-
torney, or anyone else represent-
inf The Standard, reviewing the
Personal Career of our present
Governor. Any man who has been
honored with high office and who
has become very popular with his
constituents, may accept a po-
sition; in fact he is earnestly so-
licited by the Major OU Compa-
nies to accept a position, as ad-
visor or as their attorney, as soon
as he goes out of office, and some
of them would accept this posi-
tion while ln office If It was not
a violation of the law. Any lawyer
has the right to accept work as
an attorney for the Standard, or
any other Combine or Trust, and
here Is no law preventing him
"rom accepting such work as their
Utorney, but when he does he

vices of any man who carries weight

plaobd him in the Governor's chair.
After this was done doat you be-
lieve that the advice of Mr Moody,
aa attorney for Standard OU, would
have a great deal of bearing on
the dectsstons also on the slgna-
turea of Governor Sterling In the
performance of his official duties?
After some man had tendered you
a position, the highest honor of
the state, do you believe you would
listen to him In offering you ad-
vice, or would you listen to others
who had nothing to do with plac-
ing you In office. And If that same
ex-official was representing Stan-
dard or other Major Oil Compa-
nies, you would be duty bound to
heed the advice of that man who
had benefited you and made you
governor of the greatest State In
the Union? Wouldn't you?

Just listen to that man Clyde
W. Warwick "speak out In meetln".
We are about to become very
prosperous, because liquor Is about
to be returned wholesale and retail
all over the United States. Thou-
sands of men wlU be put to work
In the distilleries making booze:
the railroads will have loads to
haul, the trucks will be in such
demand that new factories will
open; barrel makers, and bottle
factories will thrive; the govern-
ment treasurery will suddenly have
more money than It knows what to
do with. Yes, prosperity Is on Its
way, all because booze will flow
freelly in the United States. So
say the antl-prohlbltlonlsts.
But on the other hand, this same
bunch tells that there Is more
booze being drunk In the United
States than ever before. That all
of the crime, the depression, the
drouth and everything else bad
has been brought about because
there Is prohibition, which was
causing all of this booze to be
consumed. Your head goes in
circles when you listen to the ar-
guments which are presented
without facts, reason or logic. They
say they want booze, but not the
open saloon. In this they mean to
deceive the people.
Henry Ford may not be as smart
as the antls, but he has served
notice that so far as he Is con-
cerned, he does not intend to en-
danger the lives of his workmen
by letting them tank up on booze
and work in his factory. "A drunk-
en man ought not to be at the
mercy of machlnery.nor machin-
ery at the mercy of a drinking
man," Is his verdict.
And the public, when It buys an
automobile, has the right to de-
mand that Its parts were manu-
factured by sober men, who have
all of their powers of thought
when they make tho.ie parts, oi
assemble the car. The public does
not allow a drunken driver any
right of the highways and streets,
because he Is a menace to life
and property. The drunken man
In the factory who turns out de-
fective products Is likewise a men-
ace to society, and Henry Ford
knows this.
The public will refuse to ride
with a drunken chauffeur, or a
drunken railroad engineer, or a
drunken mariner. The public dies
not wish to buy goods or gro-
ceries from a drunken clerk; or
have a prescription filled by a
drunken druggest. The public de-
mands sobriety on the part of its
teachers und preachers and public
officials, although sometimes the
ballots favor those who are not
sober ln deed and thought.
If liqujr should return, let even
business man consider the results.
There may be a lot of liquor ln
use today, too much no doubt, but
If the liquor traffic is legalized,
liquor would be in direct compe-
tition with every phase of business
in Canyon. The grocer, dry goods
man, druggest. lumberman, every
other line of business would find
liquor as a real competitor. He
would not appreciate that.
And another thing ln which
Canyon is Interested. We have
heard a number of times lately
that Canyon has the reputation of
having more liquor for sale In this
city than any town of Its size on
the Plains. If that is true It Is a
dlsgrcce to the citizens of this
town. Canyon offers educational
advantages to the young people
of West Texas and Invites them
to come here to Improve their
minds. If booze Is offered freely,
and without restriction In Canyon,
a lot of Canyon people who travel
under the guise of respectability
should be In the penitentlr.ry.
and Canyon's good name not be
redeemed until this gang is in the
penitentiary. If the above state-
ment Is true, It challenges evrry
citizen of Canyon to go behind
the officers, who will enforce the
law, or kick out the officers those
who will not enforce the law, and
clean up the town. These are plain
words but we are Indignant to
hear the good name of Canyon
questioned by people from the out-
side who said that Canyon had
this reputation. If It Is true, there
Is Just one way to correct the evil
