HLl i: LAW OK l(t:m HEAD. Prosecution Falls hi First Kumluy CloMhig Case In Portland PORTLAND. Or., Oct. 2 Puritan ical laws of Portland wero compar ed with the Puritanical laws of the Pilgrims In Municipal court yester day, aud following the rulings of the early fathers, tho modern jury held that certain alleged violations of the Sunday law should be regarded in- necessary nnd consequently condon ed. Accordingly C. C. Peterson, charg ed with having kept his billiard hall 2(2 liurnside street, open for busi ness last Sunday, was acquitted nnc the case dismissed. It was the firs: of the 50 odd cases that are on the Municipal Court docket as a result of District Attorney Cameron's drag net policy that was enforced last Sunday against small dealers and shop-keepers.

That Is the declaration of his per sonal organ, the Oily News, and It is very probable that he inspired the , statement himself. That Mayor Hoover has not been doing anything 1 toward the enforcement of that law is apparent to the most casual ob server. It will be a surprise to most people, however, to learn of thin new doctrlno, that tho chief officer of a city has nothing to do with law enforcement. it Is by no means surprising that the Oily NewB Is so wrathy at hav ing Its real position mado known, or that it hurls nearly a column of abuse at The Review for revealing Its true status as the organ of Hoover, Norman, et nl. While that sheet has had tho unwavering sup- 'lort of the "wet element ever since the June election. It has also en- leavored to pose as a friend of law- enforcement, by mentioning In an offhand way what everyone already knew that cases of drunkenness have been of largely Increasing fre quency In itoseburg of late. When :iKked to specify and to explain why the mayor and tho marshal had per mitted such conditions to exist, In di rect violation of the prohibition Inw, It merely fumes with rago nnd utters a volume of abuse. It tries to hold Judge Hamilton, Hist. Atty. Brown, Sheriff Kent on and Justice Long "(liiaHy culpnble with Hoover and Norman. That Judge Hamilton nnd Dint, Atty. Brown will prosecute all awes brought before them Is fully known hy every citizen and likewise dreaded hy every lawbreaker. City 'ases would most likely come before Recorder Orcutt for hearing and date cases before tho grand jury, so Justice Long's olliclal connection with any of them would be infre quent. If Sheriff Kenton has been overlooking any county cases of law- breaking he should bo admonished to "get busy." In the towns it Is the duty of tho city otllclals to see that the laws aro enforced. That such has not been done in Roseburg the Oily News Itself declared In its last Monday's issue. Yet when asked why the law has not been enforced by the city officers it files Into a rage and seeks to shield its speclnl friends, Mnyor Hoover nnd Marshal Norman, who have allowed such law breaking to continue, with no up parent effort to stop It. Indeed many people believe they have had no desire or inclination to stop It As The Review has staled before such a condition will not be toter aled much longer. Whether n man believes In prohibition or not, such Is now the Inw and It must he enforced In fact this seems to be the prln clpal issue In next Monday's city election. It being generally ad mltted that the present otllclals have not enforced tho law. It seems to be up to the voters to elect others who will. I'r.ilil Ticket Withdraw.. DALLAS, Tex., Oct. 2.

Atlantic Fleet Sow to Manila Bay Special lo the Kvenlng Review, SAN KHANC1SCO, Oct. 2. Joseph N. Teal, attorney (or the Western Oregon Lumber Manutttcturera' As sociation, closed the second dayB' argument today iu the Willamette Valley lumber rate case, which was re-opened yostorday hy the filing of an amended complaint by the South ern Pacific Co.
