In a letter to a Portland paper recently Thomas B. Merry, a resident of Portland, called attention to the Injury that Is in store for Portland in tho event state wide prohibition is enacted. His epistle Is as fol lows: I am not a Methodist nor am I personally acquainted .with Rev. J. II. Cudltpp of Graco Episcopal church. I was brought up In tho An gellcan church (called Episcopal In America) nnd Samuel Seabury, the first bishop of that church, was an ancestor of mlno on my father's sldo. But In theso days of rabid bigotry and Intolerance, it Is refreshing to meet a man who is cnutlous and con servative, like Mr. Cudllpp; and who believes that when wo nrc confronted with two (frlls wo should accept tho lessor of the twain. Wo nro living In nn ago which calls for the aid and' service of conservative men in the forum nnd tho pulpit, as well as nt tho bar nnd on tho bench; and tho rector of Graco Methodist Episcopal church has Bhown himself nn earnest ndvocnto of that most equitable of all measures "tho greatest good to tho greatest number." That tho reverend gcntlemnn will Incur censuro from many of his own denomination, It not from members of his Immodlnto flock, Is my belief. But wo nro not now living In nn era like that which scut Ridley nnd Lati mer to tho stnko. Ho looks townrd a compromise which Is right and Just because It docs not involvo tho aban donment of n principle Now, as UiIh stnto wldo prohibition question is tho moat Importnnt ano to bo submitted unto tho qualified voters of this stnto nt tho ensuing election, lot us look nt it from both' n flnanclnl and n moral point of view. You good people who went through tho panic of thrco years ago, do you want to havo a repetition of It In No vember? If you do, Just go to tho polls on election dny and vote for stnto wldo prohibition. It will pro duce little or no grcnt chnugo in tho small towns in tho Interior of Oregon but In Portland its effects will bo far moro disastrous than was tho panic or 1007. To begin with it will cut off 420 liquor licenses, which pay tho entiro oxponso of tho flro nnd pollco departments, thus greatly re ducing tho city's revenues nnd neces sitating Increased taxation In order to mnlntnln those departments. It will vncato 420 houses now rented for snloonB nnd rendor It difficult for property ownors to find now tenants for them. Thoso saloons sometimes havo two owners nnd often as high as three; nnd nt least half tho sa loonmen nro mrtrrlcd mon, who keep houso nnd pay rent. At least 900 bnrkeoporo aro employed nt salaries ranging from $80 to $100 per month. Then thoro must bo nenrly 200 em ployes In tho breweries, Including the coopora nnd draymen; nnd nt least a half of thorn aro married men, rent ng small dwellings. Not one of them In ten owns tho houso wherein he resides. Outsldo tho ownors of these build ings thero nro othors who will feel tho depression caused by stnto wide prohibition and feel It much as soon ns will tho owners of real etjjato. Tho man nt tho corner grocery; tho butcher, with his whlto npron and bluo gingham sleeves; tho man from sunny Italy, who peddles out nrtl chokes and caullfiowors, and tho man who sella wheat bread compounded by tho apothecaries' wolght, all theso small retailors will feel tho stringency at onco such a law goes 'Into effect. And with tho retail tradesmen buying nothing from thorn tho big wholesalo merchants will soon Miare In tho general dismay that per vades all classes of trado in a targo nnd onco prosperous city. Thero aro hundreds of men doing business In this city of ours whoso solo avocation is tho purchaso and salo of real property as well ns the collection of rentals on houses nnd lota owned by non-resldonts. Thoy say tho easiest way to reach a man's heart Is through his pocket; and if. such be tho caso, it Is to the Interest of every real estate dealer in Port land to cast his vote against tho senseless proposition to mako prohl bltlon a law throughout .tho length and breadth of tho staf. It wiU lead up to depreciation of .values ev ' o'rywhore but moro especially In tlui city, nnd It therefore becomes hit that Is a deathblow to popular liberty and a proposition that Iris proven n failure In every other stute of tho union. Kill It oft and d6 It now. I hnve gone over tho flnnnohu fiido of tho question nt a greater length thnn I had first Intended because 1 did not wish to occupy much upaco to discuss it. But tho moral side of tho question Is moro easily dis posed of. Tho dead editor of tho Orcgonlnn, by long oddB tho blgs3t brnlned man that ever saw Oregon, gave tho truth In a nutshell when ho said that "tho objection to prohibi tion 1b thnt it does not prohibit." Tho elder Pitt In one of his speeches bald: "Nothing bo disgraces or belittles a nation ns to adopt laws which It can not enforce." Wo boo UiIb exempli fied in Maine, tho plonoor prohibi tion state, where thoro 1b moro wlfe bcatlng by drunken husbands In ono day than occurs In Oregon in an en tire year. Tho Pino Trco state is struggling under a half-century cf dishonor. If prohibition Increased tompar nnco nnd encouraged total absti nence; if It abolished or cvun par tially decreased tho besetting sin of drunkenness, then sano men would not perhaps, count Its fearful cost. But in tho face of irrotutablo fig ures of tho United Stntea internal revenue department which provo conclusively thnt moro whisky nnd moro beer per capita aro now boing used thnn nt nny tlmo within tho pnst fifteen yenra in splto of tho grcnt prohibition wavo sweeping over tho land tho clergymen may well Join hniulB with tho business man, tho man of dollars and conts, In fighting against stato wldo prohibi tion In Oregon. It Is not morcly a buslnesH necessity to tnko up arms ngnlnst It. It is n mornl duty to defeat It nnd nn obligation thnt no sincere man enn afford to shirk. THOMAS B. MERRY. (Pnld ndv. by H. B.

Two Wagons Collide and Both Aro Damaged. A runaway In tho Alllnnco ware houso this morning did consldorablo damage, although It did not last vory long.
