The city of Salem ccmid advertise itself in no better way than to do its part in raising the endowment of Willamette Universi ty to a million dollars. This city is expected to raise one hundred thousand dollars, and a large part of this money is already subscribed, and the committee is making rapid progress. The great get-together banquet this evening, at the Willamette auditorium, ought to be- attended by every live man and woman in this city to boost for the endowment. Our city i3 full of visitors from all over the stated-ministers and laymen who see here a beautiful city for a great educa tional center, and are ready to assist. The public officials, the successful business men, the political leaders in state and national affairs, can make up this sum and guarantee the Million Dollar Fund. Men like Dr. Homan and Dr. Todd, who go out into the great centers of wealth to raise this endowment fund, will bring in nine dollars for every dollar raised here. They should be able to say with pride see what the home city of the university hns done for us, and they :oukl argue with some hope of success to get thereat. This is a matter that appeal ) to the pride of our people and those who have been enriched by the presence of a Methodist college at Salem are responding liberally. As a business proposition Willamette University appeals to the non-Methodist portions of the community just as strongly, and they are also, being heard from with generous additions. o DARKEST AFRICA IS GOING DRY. Rev. Clarence True Wilson was very careful to keep a" long ways from home in discussing prohibition. He got some applause from his audience for telling how pro hibition was sweeping over Africa and Iceland. The Methodist conference and the temperance workers who composed his audience were all of one mind, but were not over enthusiastic. The cool-headed, thinking men and common-sense women even the suffragettes were doubting whether prohibition was really making and progress among civilized nations. Rev. Wilson gave his case away, so far as civilization and Christianity are concerned, when he tearfully admitted that the three greatest nations England, Germany and the United States were consuming more liquor than ever before in their history. Rev. Wilson mistakes army and navy regulations emanating from the German emperor for prohibition decrees to the Ger man people. The fact is, the people of Germany are the soberest and most moral people in Europe, and farthest from prohibition. Ma utterances showing the general scientific warfare on drugs were reasonable and hopeful. The Increasing use of poisonous drugs is the appalling fact of the age, as Is the increase of all forms of vice. The statement of Dr. Wilson was that all the nations under the Oriental religions were prohibitionists, sr far as alcoholic liquors were concerned, but addicted to opium, hasheesh and other drug intoxicants. But he will not pretend those Oriental races that use no alco hoi are our superiors in morality. The prohibitionist gets himself onto the indefensible ground that Christianity is a failure. Then he takes a grand and lofty tumble, and says the Bible stands for Christianity, but that Christianity does not live up to the teachings of their scriptures, ns other religionists do. All these attitudes and posings will do for the unthinking en thusiast, but do not go with serious and thoughtful people. The fact is prohibitionists have, by radicalism and untenable attempts at making prohibition a political and religious issue, lost ground and injured the cause of temperance. In Oregon, under local option, they had all but five coun ties dry. t By striking down their own invention, the local option law, they lost all their dry territory but four or five counties. They have lost Maine, after half a century of struggle. The only real progress made has been by regulation, educa tion and a high standard of business common sense. Their hope to advance prohibition by woman .suffrage will prove a delusive dream. The reason that .most of us are doad aura w would like to be rich la because It la something that wo liefer hare tried. I i SALEM DANK & TRUST CO.
