I Man Oregon papers havoi been loaded down within' the past three weeks with repeated assurances that "Uusiness is Fine in Dry Towns." 'Plw lln.nn i.ml imnmilinil' a jii; iiiiv;v; iiiinL jiiijiim i tin u Oregon cities to become "dry'' nine months ago were Salem, Oregon City and Springfield. If lnisinoHH is l'ino in those cities tliu tiixjiayers nnd most of tho business men would like to linvo the "dry" cxplnin jiwt what they menu by "fine." If tlioy, lind said " luminous is thin," tlion they might linvo been inOrc easily understood. Let them anawcr first about conditions in Salem. Ex-Council-j until John I). Tumor, of Saloin, nn attorney, is sponitoi' for the. followiue: fneta about that city: Hlm went "dry" Bi-cembor 1 last, oloslng in MUmix, three reittnurnnts and two wiiidtwilo houses and withdrew liquor ixrinlts from cl)(ltt drug stores nnd cut off an annual liceuie revenue of $1.1,400. Ninety men nnd n monthly payroll of $5,700 were put out of corn inlsl(tn. Inst of the men linvo left the city. All buildings vacated by these concerns are still empty, except six, widen have been occupied by ten ants who have vacated other buihllii;, sovernl of the best buildings beln(; linnrded over and used as billboards. More than five hundred modern dwell ings are fur rent." Store property rentals on State street linvo dropped fiom $1S.1 to $110 a month, but "busi ness Is flue." Pour teen other business places linvo eln'sed since December 1 Inst, nsldo from the saloons and restaurants. In cluded are three shoo stores two by sheriff and oh voluntarily; one of tho lrget drygnods stores has been sued for the first time In twenty years. Scores of clerks have left the city,' causing the lossof more jmyrolls to the city, bat "business is fine." A leading prohibitionist promised to' build lit new dwellings if the city went "dry." Nine houses wero begun, two have the windows and doors In, but have nevor lieeu finished; no work 1ms lon dene on -the others, besides their bare frames. Building permits from January to August, the lost nine wet months of 1018, were $S4H,f)2.1; from November, BUS, to September, 10H, the next eleven "dry" months, they wore $1S0, 000 less, or $20S,1A0. The grammar school opening day en rollment in 101.1 was 1.110; on the same day 1011, l-iOO. but "burinee is fine.." Bank deposits show a decrease -of $.100,013 since the town went "dry," evea after allowing for the flM.000 dejHtslted this year from sale of bonds in Boston. The decrease, therefore, really should be $701,018, but "busi ness is fine." The attendance at tho "Cherry Pair" this year was about one-half what It was the last "wet" year. Tho Ministerial Association beforo the dec ticu which made Salom "dry," told the Cherry Fair promoters that thoy would make up for the donations usu ally made by the saloons, but utterly failed to do so this year nnd the pro moter refused to hold that cnrnlvnl. The "Cherrians," consisting of 100 rest boosters, but of no prohibitionists, then pledged their personal member ship for the necessary funds, requiring the paymest on their part of $300. To rub it in, the Methodists then turned their church into n restaurant, put the kitehea in the pulpit and competed with the legitimate restaurants for the littlt business that their proprietors had hungrily looked for as a posaibla annukl goeVad. Business must be "fine" in any city nhtn building permits, payrolls, bank depoiits, bsnkrupteles, closed stores, do populated dwellings, depressed realty olues, school enrollments and carnival statistics all tell so dreary a story of, literal fast. Maybe the prohibitionists, mean tnat tue "agitating uusiness'' is fine, bustling condition of a year ago, that would make the angels weep. A year ago every store was filled and crowds of people thronged its streets. Every merchant was making money, practi cally everyone who wanted work was employed. Everyone- seemed happy and con tented, except the prohibi tionists. Today Springfield looks lileo n deserted village, busiiii'HH is par- aiyred, nnd more than eight or ten people on its main xtrcet at any one time would nelunlly bo the chiiso of o.M'ileinonl. Vol the Committor of One Hundred snys: "Huaincss is fine in dry I owns." Springfield wont "dry" at the election Inst fall, the salooiu "losing lanunry .1. hiil the "drys" toll nil about these "finu" business conditions n Springfield after nine months' operation of tlioir "business tho- oriea " Alilmngh a mush, smaller city than Salem, the bank deposits In Spring Meld have fallen off In the lust yenr over $'i".o''0. When Main street finally Is rend justed In the next month or two, prne finally two blocks of store bulhlingn on ocli side of the street west of the "outhcin Pacific tracks will be desert ed, but "liualneas Is fine." A rcil estate ante is unheard of and would Iv Impossible on any part of Main street but "business is fine." The Hprltipflehl Toggery, the lxst ,geut ' furnishing store, Is now being cliHM'd out by a reecivcr, but "business It. fine." The Im l'ranee Confwtloaery Store, one of the hwst in "wet" d.-ys, has liod out. but "butneas is flue." O. W. Johnson's Hardware Store, the best of its line durlli;"wef days, already has been sold out by a re ceiver, but "business is fine." A. J. Iloinlursoa. the lending dry goods merahaut, oicupled a double store a year ago. Todi.y he oceupies but one store an I will tell you his business is "about lilf" h'-t it was i year ago, but "birlmss 's flue." The elty has tun into n $ "HO defieit ram an excess) of sxh nrilturea over income, although tho "drjs" piomined 'hat leas politic slid eourt cxim-iim'S would stake a snilua, if the people would vote the t'J.niO saloon ii.-enses tit of buttiaeaa, but that's "fl.i'.- bust ncss." The prohibitionists n ywir ago prom ised to redueo the tax hy, but bnvo increased the levy this year by five mills, but "IiusIucim is fine." Not a foot of permanent street im rovemont work lias licen ilone, ex cept the eoiiHtruetlna of a small bridge over a oreek, and that was paid for by a bond issue. StrectH nn, tddcwalke sre in a deplorable condition, and the prohibitionists are now petitioning the eouneil to "double" the expense levy. If the local taxpayers, but a few of whom aro "drys," vote down this po tition, the city ooity'ruate the same pos sibility as Oregon City, viz., the ap M)intiaent of a receiver, but "business is fine in dry towns."

Adams, a prohibi tion speaker and worker, served out n five dollar fine In the Seaside jail for falling to obey the loesl ordinances regulating street speaking. Adams, who boasts of having been arrested -11 times and of hnving served 14 jail sen tences, declares that he prefers jail sentences to (tayiag fines, as they give him more notoriety and unable him to draw larger audiences. Ppon comple tion of his jail term hero ho left tows at once. ( Paid Advertisement, Taxpayers & Wugs !3arnlus, League of Oregon, i ! mm ! is s HIIISMM IliM !! IMS H mm i ST Oregon City and Clack anias County, 'of which Ore gon City is the county seat, present as lamentable a condition in a b n s i n e s s sense as a defunct corpora tion about to go into the hands of a receiver. In fact, a receivership for Ore gon City already has been seriously discussed by cer tain of its ci editors, and Judge Campbell of that city has declared his willingness to declare such a receiver ship, if formal application were made to him, as lie would for "any bankrupt corporation." A special election lias been called by the city for November !) "to relieve the financial condition of the city," the purpose being to vote $200,000 r per cent bonds and to increase the tax levy eight mills in or der to take cure of the now indebtedness. On the part of Clnrhnmns County the County Treasuror is oonfronli'd with an empty treas ury for the Tirst time in six years. The Morning Hnterpriso, a raili eal prohibitionist daily of Ore gon City, in explaining this sit uation, says "the condition is con sidered tho result of the amount of deli n'( n e n I taxes on tho county's tax rolls. County Treas urer Tufts refused tho first war-rnnt-s on the general fund Mon day (October 12, UI14)." Iliislness must be "fine" In n city and a county when the treasuries of both are empty because of luck of money coming Into their strong boxes, with a speulnl election culled by the eity'to inorenso its tux levy, with a re ceivership threatened and vtlth "dan ger" signs strung ulnug the length of tho business portion of Main street by "order of tho City Council," which readi ""Danger 5uiln Street Declared Dangorou All persons traveling on Mnln street between North sldo of Moss street nnd Sooth side of Third street do so at their own risk." Hunks are refusing to cm Mi Oregon City munlrlpnl warrants. Since Juim ary first the city has issued .$30,11!) 1. 0.1 In these warrants, according to the riv port of City Itecorder John W. Lodnr, and these warrants aro still uuiaid. The city tax levy in llM.'t in Oregon Oily was eight mills. Two weeks af ter the eity went dry the oouunil In orensed this levy to 10 mills for I I'M, nnd on' November i) there is to bo n speulnl elitiou held at whleli the voters will bo asked to sanction an ndilitioniil levy of tight mills to meet the niuului 11 Indebtedness.
