The Roswell Record critiques a proposed plan by saloon supporters to petition for a Commission Form of Government to restore saloons. The piece labels backers as sore heads and saloonites, arguing the scheme aims to elect a wet ticket and reintroduce drinking establishments, which readers oppose.
The Record denounces a saloon backed petition and argues against a Roswell Plan while favoring a simplified commission system. It cites James F. Hinkle opposing the plan and contrasts Roswell and Santa Fe discussions of municipal governance with detailed objections to both plans.
