PROHI151T10N From the general sentiment of the community a FOR ORF.GON CITV juoVJ by those who have given the matter any consi.lcraMe thought ami attention, the prohibitionist will carry all of the city precincts at the election on November 4. Sentiment through the city has generally changed s'nee the last election. It has turned toward the prohibition cause. The voters of the mills hau iliown a sentiment in favor of the dm in this campaign that did not ilevrlor during any of the others that have, at various times, swept through .the tounty. In addition, the women are counted upon by the dry element to go to the polls in force this year and to cast their vote almost en masse for the cause. Certainly, a large number of them have registered this year and all of them have shown a greater interest in the campaign than they have before. The dry forces are counting upon them to play an important part in the coming election. If the women vote as heavily as they believe they have a reason to expect, and if the mill workers and others are found generally in the dry column, the forces that have been favoring prohibition in the city be lieve that success is assurrcd. That they have a right to this belief is gen erally conceeded among those who have studied the attitude of the various forces that will enter into the battle next month. Unless one is interested directly in the fight, it must be conceeded that the people will line this city in the dry column in the coming campaign. The sentiment now has swung hack from the last wet and dry election. It seems now an assurred fact that the saloons will go. Various factors make this seem a certainty and those factors will play an important part in the fight that both forces are to wage. Though the two elements have organized and have a thorough campaign outlined, the wets will generally find that the fight has already gone against them and that the do- element has but to register its ballots at the polls for the victory to be won. The churches, generally, too, have organized for a campaign for prohibition and the votes that they will influence, more or less, will be important on the final reckoning. With all of these factors to contend with, the wet element will be unable to stem the tide that is now sweeping over the city and that, almost without a doubt, w ill line the city in the dry column as soon as the fight is over. There is hardly a chance that the w ets can retreive themselves. The closing of some saloons because of liquor sold to minors has played its part in the changing of the community sentiment. Just why the attitude of the work ers in the mills has taken the turn that it apparently has is not assigned to any particular cause. It seems certain, however, that a majority of them will vote for the dry cause and that the ballots that they will be able to cast vi ill have an important influence on the turn of the election. So decidedly has the sentiment turned in the opposite direction to that of the last election that almost all of those who have studied the question at all thoroughly or who have given the matter any considerable thought or in vestigation are positive that there will be little question of the final results. Just how the voters of Milwaukee will figure at the same time is not as certain as in Oregon City. The tavern episode there, however, may have something to do with the sentiment when it is called upon to register at the polls. With these two cities on the list of the drys in the county, there will be few incorporated towns left for the wets and Clackamas county will be placed in the prohibition list of the state. In connection, the city will have to figure on a higher tax rate, because of the loss of the $10,000 a year that is now turned in for the saloons. It will probably mean that the levy will be heavier than now or that the money will have to be raised from some other source to meet the current ex penses. At first, too, the authorities will have to especially vigilant because of the effort that will undoubtedly be made to establish a "bootlegging" system and blind tigers in the city. But these things can be stopped if the author ities of the city and the county enforce the law as they are sworn to do, and, as it is expected, they will do. Law violations can be stopped by law en forcement and nothing remains but for the officers to perform those duties prescribed by law and the prohibition statute will not be made an excuse for law breaking in the city limits. UNIVERSITY Skimping in the appropriations of funds for state institu APPROPRIATIONS tions is the worst sort of economy. It hurts the state, in the long run, worse than any other sort of saving that could be prac ticed. The legislature of this-state ha appropriated $175,000 for the sup port and improvement of the University at Eugene and has divided that money into funds that will pay for the various buildings that the president and board of regents of that institution now have in mind. Reports from all of the officials of the institution show conclusively that new buildings are needed. The rooms are crowded and the members of the faculty overtaxed. Even the halls and cloak rooms have been turned into recitation rooms for the classes and the students have been jammed into every conceivable place where they could be given the education that the state pro vides. With the growth of the state's population and the resulting increase in the attendance at the higher schools of learning, the usable space at the Uni versity will be even more limited than it has and the classes will either have to be stuck away in some of the odd corners of the buildings or the young men and women will have to be turned away without that education to which they are entitled as citizens of the state. A GOOD SUGGESTION Have you a boy or girl whom you contemplate sending to college tome day? Have you any way of knowing what your financial condition may be at the time when the greatest desire of your heart will be to put that girl or boy through school? Would it not be a good plan to open an account with our bank for just that purpose? Just figure from 'the childs present age up to the time for en tering college, or until 21 years of age, and note that one dollar a week deposited in a bank ac count will do. The Bank of Oregon City OLDEST BANK IN CLACKAMAS COUNTY To refuse an education to a man or woman who has the rnrrgy and nut rition to tnke the higher courses is not only a calamity it is a crime. IMuca lion is but one means thnt the state provide to train its men nd women in the vas of citien-hip. It takes the boy or gill and pun him through long je.irs of woik in the lower grades finishing the training with a course in tie higher institutions of learning for but one purpose. The more education there is at the reach of the rich and poor alike, the fewer will be the jails and the fewer the criminals. Education reduces the criminal class wherever it is placed within reach of all classes of socictv. It Trains the men or woman in citizenship and instills in him the repect for law and order that a ruffian of the street does not get and never will get. To be skimping with appropriations that produce such a la-ting good lor the state is nothing more nor less than shortsightedness. The legislature of the state saw how much the added room and equipment would mean in the training of its citizens and the appropriations were made by an overwhelming vote. The referendum that was slapped on to these appioptiiitions is backed I y men who have ambitions for a consolidation of the agricultural college and the university and who believe that such a consolidation would be moie economical and for the best interests of the state. Such a claim cannot he verified by facts. The statistics of tho-e stales where the two schools are consolidated shows that the cost per capita is almost twice that now in the Oregon University. The hill M the state incrcaves. The entity of the two schools is submerged. Each institution has its own peculiar function to perform in the develop .nent of the state. Fach has its own class of woik ( do and appeals to its own class of students. The work of the agricultural college would be seri ously hampered by the consolidation with the university. Either the college would pin the supremecy in the university or r ice versa and the results would be neither beneficial nor economical to the state. States that have tried the experiment regret it. They are usually seeking a change. The two schools do not amalgamate. They are dit'tetent insti tutions with different ideas of work and effort and appeal to a different class of students. The boy who wants to study agricultuie or any of its kindred subjects has different ideas as to his life work than has the doctor . r lawyer, for instance. The schools never have consolidated harmoniously and never w ill. , Not only that, hut there are numbers of legal questions that enter into the case when the subject of removal is discussed. Where would the school he located? What would the state do with the university buildings at Eu- Curreitt Kxpense , &:I6.5D gene f What are the status of the property rights that are involved? Muvini: a school creates a panic in the town from which it is taken and starts a boom in land values at the one to which it goes. Right there begins a sectional prejudice that would mean a great ileal to the state. The law as passed by the legislature is a necessary appropriation for the school, and should be approved by the people of the state at the polls t month. COMPENSATION FOR To the people of Oregon on the election nf INJURED WORKMEN November 4, will be"submitt-d a bill that gives the worker the first chance that he has had in years to recover what is due him for injuries without long and exhausting suits at law. To the man who works in a factory or in any hazardous occupation, it is a boon. It means that he and his family will be properly cared for during the time that he is prevented from work by injuries that he has received in the discharge of his duties. It means that he will be paid just the amount that his injuries are properly worth as judged by his earning capacity at the time that he was hurt. The law goes into the subject thoroughly. It leaves little unsaid. It starts out with an explanation of its purpose and it recognizes the fact that many laborers are not properly remunerated for their injuries because wealth" corporations have a way of beating the cases when they come to trial. These litigations have always been a source of annoyance to those who stand by the courts as at present constituted and contend that they give the rich and the poor equal and fair justice for they don't. The legislature of the state itself admits it in the preamble to the law. It declares emphatically that the law is passed for the benefit of the worker and recognizes that he does not get the square deal when it comes to a suit at the bar. To give the worker what the courts do not give him, the law was pased. If provides for a state industrial commission that has powers enough an I money enough to provide for every case that properly comes before it, and that is justified in the claims that it makes. A man injured in the discharge of his duties in any of the hazarduous undertakings that are mentioned and twt of them arc may apply to that commi-sion for his proportion of the funds that have been set aside. He may make that application with the assurance that, if his chums are true and proper, they will receive the proper attention from that commission and that he will receive what is due to him for the hurts that he has. The commission has the power to bring to its court all of the witnesses and evidence that it may want. . It is given funds enough to have all of the employes that are necessary to a prompt dispatch of the business in hand, lv is created on a non-partisan basis and is given a term of years that removes it from the influence of party or of party factions. The fund that it has at its disposal is raised partly by the state, by the employers, and by the workmen. Each of the three parties interested have contributed. Each has an interest in that fund. Its disposal is at the dis cretion of the commission. The state is made a party to all actions because the state is interested in the welfare of its workmen. To us, it seems that the purpose of the act is accomplished by its provision. It gives the employe a chance to get what is due for injuries sustained in the regular discharge of his duties It takes away by spcecific enactment the right of defense on the ground of contributory negligence which has always been a stumbling block in the way of the employe to collect what he should have had. It gives him the chance to get his dues without having to fight the case through the courts, to become entangled iu endless litigation or lose half of his demands through court costs and other attendant expenses. From start to finish, the law is a good one. It is one that will benefit many workmen during the year. It will prove a boon in the elimination ot suits for damages as the result of injuries sustained. It means much, in short, to the workmen of the state and is a statute that should be placed on the statute books by the people at the ballots next month.
