Rose Speaks Against Oregon Dry Movement AUDIENCE OF 800 HEARS HIM Admits Abase of Liquor Tnlfir, bat Says Rtmedy is Regulation, Not Prohibition "Milwnukeo, Wisconsin, according to the Government census, has a I Biuuller percentage of drunkenness thun any other large city In the country. "1 oppose prohibition, because I am in fuvor oi temperance; seir-reHpectlng man believes In tem perance. "The old state of Maine is the most colossal saloon keeper in the world. . "When tho impatient girl at tl.e beach told her bashful beau to sv.al low tho sand in his mouth, Hint his system needed It, she illuslruUd the need of some of you business men. You won't take a stand one way or the other on the liquor question for fear you might lose tho sale of a paper collar. "Philosophers who are predicting the downfall of this repub.ic ::,tsi their opinions on the moral cowardice of the electorate. "The 'bootlegger' and the prohi bitionist are political co-partners. "The prohibitionists belittle Ists and YV. C. T. u. workers. A man of impressive personality and line oraturlcal delivery, .Mr. Itose commanded the closest attention of his listeners throughout his 2-hour address and he was frequently In terrupted with bursts of applause. Mr. Rose declared that local option was a misnomer, that it was county option Instead, lie said, real local option came with home rule such as is proposed in the measure to he voted on In this state at the N'o- 'vember election, wherein the cities shall have a right to say whether they shall be dry or wet. That is real local option. A county is not a unit in the real sense. The smallest subdivision Is the real unit and is entitled to self government on this issue. Experiment Unsatisfactory. "At one time, more than r0 years ago, 17 of tho American states were under prohibition, and yet after hav ing tried the experiment In many in stances for many years, all abandoned it as Ineffective and Injurious to the nublic welfare, excepting only the state of Maine. And now, less than one month ago. tho people of the state of Maine at the ballot box have lexnrcssed their protest against the every pnIlt,,iinnee of tho heresv in that state. ! "The great state of Oregon is the formative stale," said Mr. Hose. "Her resources have only been 'scratched and the possibilities of her future are limitless as tho horizons of the work- I answer Iniiinan or his children? unhesitatingly, never. "You will remember that a few- years ago the Congress of the United States enacted a law abolishing what is known as the Army canteen. Now every governor of every soldiers' Lome, and every departmental com mander without exception, and 16 out of the 18 chaplains, have recom mended the re-establishment of the Army canteen. . "That prohibition does not pro hibit drunkenness or the use of in toxicants is proved by the fnct that the number of arrests for drunken ness and drunk and disorderly, in the cities and prohibition states, is ordlu arlly larger than In the so-called "wet" states of the country," In support of tho assertion, the speaker read oliicinl reports from the police departments of the "dry" cltleB. "We won back Worcester, Mass.; which had been pointed to with pride by the prohibitionists, as a model prohibition city, and also New Bedford, another supposed strong- noici ot tne prontbttionlsts," con tinued Mr. Rose. "And so the cam paign has gone on in. all parts of the country. The tide is flowing back, experience has been a good teacher, and it will not be long until this agi tation will be replaced with a cam paign of education on temperance. Mr. Rose's Remedy.

The City council held a brief ses sion Monday evening and instructed tho street committee to see that the walk on the Lane street side of the Methodist church prop erty was rolald In conformity with the Kelsey grnde.- Accepted an estimate from City Engineer Roberts of $4315 for the projocted establishment of a sewer system in West Roseburg. Rererred to the light committee a petition for the Installation of a street light at the Intersection of Second Avenue nnd Wost Third street, Kinney's Addition. Rejected, by unanimous vote, peti tion of the school board, asking the city to assume control of the sewer extending from the high school to Lane street. Passed an ordinance providing for the construction of n sewer in the alley in Block 91, Third Southern Addition to Roseburg. Gave first and second readings to an ordinance providing for tho pav ing of East diss street from Main to Chadwtck. The action of the council In re gard to the sidewalk along the Metho dist church property was due to a complaint made by Harry C. Slocum who owns adjoining property, bord ered with a sidewalk Inld according to tho Kelsey grade and which is 22 Inches lower than the walk com plained of.
