(Paid advertisement.) E IN NEXT NOVEMBER ELECTION This Is a time when all over the matlon the reign of the people Is the winning war cry. Boss rule and corporate- greed must give way to the lest interests of all the peoplo. The brewers, distillers and saloon, syndl wte have an issue before the peo ple as an amendment to the consti tution of the Btate of Oregon, called "Home 'Rule." This is the revised "Iteddylblir voted down by the peo plo two years ago by a majority of 12,994 votes. The movement is fi nanced by the liquor Interests, and the "Greater Oregon Home Rule as sociation" is tho political central eommitteo of the brewers, distillers and saloonB to secure a porpctual Tight of the saloons to our cities, regardless of the will of tho state. Ti blind the people to their purpose, tho Greater Home Rulo association professes to admit no one to mem- feership who is in any way engaged la the llauor traffic. But it has always been true that as hypocrite clothes himsolf In gar wents of white, The supremo pur pose ot this association Is to main tain the saloons In Oregon in defi- nce of the wish of a majority, ot tho Itizonfl of the county or state. "Home ula" Is not lu harmony with our loeI optloa law," but is Its defeat, Vote no--329 X No. The prohibition amendment" la for the state-wide banishment of the muor traffic. The evila ot tho sa loon business are not local, but af fect every citizen in the county and stato, Taxes are paid by tho citizens ef tho county and state to prosecute the crlmo and care for the criminal produced by tho saloon business. The poy or girl of Jho county are in as Hch danger of belpg demoralized mad rulnod by the Baton's Influ ace as are the boy and' girl ot tho ,tar town. The saloon sends its blight existence concerns all the people. The center of the evil and the instigator ot lawlessness Is the organized brew ers and wholesale dealers, and the remedy to reach them must be per manent and state-wfde. Nothing could better inform us on this ques tion than the editorial in the Oma ha Daily News, the paper having tho largest circulation in Nebraska. It is as follews: "County option is an issue in this fall's campaign. The state conven tions have decided that. And now wo hear a loud and vigorous cry go up from all parts ot the state that if county option passes, it means the ruin of Nebraska. Tho samo sort of an outburst followed tho enactment of the 8 o'clock closing law. Omaha was particularly rampant over this measure. Delegations protested to the governor that If the peoplo of Omaha were not given a chance to drink beer and whisky after eight o'clock tho city was going straight to the demnltion bow-wows. Today Oraha is more prosperous than ever, and, as we have stated before, we bolleve that if tho eight o'clock law wore put to a vote, Omaha would conclude to retain It. Tho result will bo the same if county option is en acted into a law. The prosperity of Omaha, of any othor city or town or of any portion of Nebraska Is not de pendent upon tho opportunity given to their peoplo to partake of intoxi cating liquors. We here in Nebras ka are much of the same muscle and fiber as tho mop of Kansas, whore prohibition which wo are told is far more terrlblo than county option has been a law for years. Yet Kansas is one ot tho most prosperous and progressive of states, with few county Jails and with sllmly inhab ited penitentiaries and Insane asy lums. In a word, tho Oharaa Dally Nows takes quqlto a cheerful view of this awful Impending doom that Is threatening us. For Just look at the latitude that is permitted If county option becomes a law; Any county chance of having saloons to tempt Its children with. It can vototo put Its money Into circulation by means ot the, saloon bar and tho saloonkeep er's strong box Instead of circulating it through the grocery and dry goods stores in purchases of hotter things and clothing for Its families. If it chooses, it may send moro thap its share of drink victims to the Insane anad Inebriate asylums, supported by the whole of the state. The peoplo of any county, If they like, may tax themselves for tho support ot Jails to tako care of the harvest ot tho fight ings and killings that aro spewed up by tho saloon. Why, a county may, If the majority of its peoplo so decide, stick a saloon alongside of every homo within its confines. There Is all sorts of personal liberty to be had undor tho county option law If the majority of tho peoplo of any county desire It. Really, tho more that wo consider the wldo latitude given by a county option law, tho moro enthusiastic wo wax over it." Whati s true of county option Is also true ot state-wldo prohibition. Vote for tho prohibition amendment 342 Yea. Vote fpr tho "prohibi tion law." This law means tho enforcement of tho people's will. Tho saloons were voted out of Jackson county In 1908 by 257 majority. They aro In Jackso ncounty today In defiance of tho wish of a majority of Its citizens. Voto for tho law that makes tho peo plo's .will uup'romo and ,provents the securing of corruption ot Bpeclal priv ileges for saloons. 344 X Yes. Watch next weok for Medford's saloon record as compared with that of other cities. i NOTICE OP SALE OP $80,000 SCHOOL BONDS, WIST. NO. 40, JACKSON COUNTY, OREOON.
