plained the alms and ambitions of

J: "Ws have won In the constitution, but

Colvln told) hi aurtlence-that a party P
?'IUeh deals with moral Issues of the
ountry can be truited with the other
Issues, when answering the critlclam that
the Prohibition party haa but one plank
in It platform.
.: "The liquet traffic can get around the
Matiternth amendment, because It la not
eelf-euppnrtinjr," ne "l1- "Some smend
trients nd no effort on the part of the
government lo enforce them, inch the
ilrcet election of senators and woman
kuffrage ; but to make prohibition af fect
rve we must have continuous auppnrt of
the government. The weakness of prohi
bition all alone- ever since lt was started
In 1133 has been the failure of ie dry
orees to trot administration. This la
lecause politic catered to the other
parties In order to ret votea."

Formal announcement of hla can
didacy for reelection to the position
of city commissioner was made by
A. L. Barbur Saturday. Barbur Is
now rounding out hi first term In-I
the council, having been elected in
1917.
He was elected city auditor In 107
and waa reelected four times, serving
10 years la that capacity. After being
sleeted commissioner . Barbur waa as
signed to the department of publie- works
by Mayor Baker, who is also a candi
date for reelection.
Barbur baaea hia request for reelection
on the record of economy achieved by
the . department during his Incumbency
and the results attained. Kapecial men
tion Is made In Batbur's statement of
the upbuilding- of the municipal paving
plant, one of the accomplishments of
hla administration.
In the statement he said:
EXFEHSES ARE CUT
"I found first thing that, the depart
ment vu overloaded with personal ser
vice and reduced the force from 221 em
ployes to 171. . I found that 1t cost the
city too much money to maintain and
keep in good condition its 800 miles of
Improved streets. I found that the city
could maintain ita own streets more
cheaply by doing the work itself than by
contract. At the end of the fiscal year
ltl7 the deDartment of public worka
had left unexpended in ita appropriation
for personal service, due to the reduc
tion of force above mentioned. $15,000,
and I secured the consent of the council
to expend this money In establishing an
asphalt paving and repair plant.
$!, 8ATED
The savings resulting in cost of main
tenance and repair of hard surface pave
ment during 1911 and 1919, as well as
the paving of TerwiUiger boulevard, at
the request of the mayor for tn bureau
of parka, costing only J19.285.lt and re
ultinK in a saving of $19,030 under what
It would have coat if performed under
contract, were so large that the coun
cil agreed late in 1919 to build a large
paving plant with bunkers, on Jefferson
street levee, so the city would be en
abled to compete directly with con
tractors in laying pavement This large
plant has been in operation since March
of this year.
TIGTJBES COMPARED
Figures which are available showing
the cost of the first 77,974 square yards
of pavement laid by this plant indicate
that the cost of laying the pavement
amounts to $101,791.37 ; whereas. If this
work had been done on the basis of
the lowest bids submitted by contractors
the cost would have been $139,870.97, so
an actual saving has been made to prop
erty owners of 138,079.60.
"An important saving haa also been
made in the matter of. sewerage for the
Peninsula district.
"After a careful investigation had
been made in the-matter of the sewer,
plans were filed y- the department of
public, works for the construction el
drainage channel a short distance east

the people. I stand on my record. There
are many opportunities yet present to
improve tha service which our gov

I am seeking reelection in order that I
may further aid In securing for the
public a better return for the money
which they will Invest tn making our city
