Attorney General Brown Would
Revise Prnhihitinn law.
MAY PREPARE AN AMENDMENT
Mr. BrowQ is Doubtful Whether lude Mor
rows Recent Decision Will Stand the
Text of Oregon's Higher Courts
An amendment to the present pro-1
hlbition law- whereby manufacture
desiring alcohol lor use In their
business may obtain It in larger
amounts than tho law- now permits
is HUKi-'ested by Attorney dencral
tieoriie M. Itrown as the best way
to solve the problem now- eonfront
IliK the Oregon manufactui-ers.
If no one else should propose such
an amendment, the Attorney C.eneral
today said that be would prepare an
amendment for consideration of the
next Legislature by which the legiti
mate manufacturer needing alcohol
could obtain it in siilTicient quanti
ties alter furnishing a satisiactorj
bond. The attorney general believes
that the law can be amended so as to
give relief to Oregon manufacturers
and at the same time prevent the
importation of alcohul for illegiti
mate purposes.
The recent de.-lsion of Circuit
Judge Morrow, of Multnomah Coun
ty, holding that any manufacturer
needing alcohol in wholesale quan
tities mav import as much as is de
1
sired for. inanulaAuring purpose
in the opinion ot Attorney Cener
llrovvn, will not stand under test.
"In anv event." said Mr. lirown
'state ollicials will continue to en
force the law- as it is now on the
books. As I understand Judge Mor
row's decision, the San Francisco &
Portland Steamship Company is held
liable Tor delivery of two barrels of
spirils to Wadhams & Co. Cnder
the penliihition law, however, it is,
unlaw lul to receive more than the
legally specilled amount of intoxicat
ing liquor, and the contention might
he made that the receipt of more
than the spe itled amount of liquor
constitutes a vloiation ol the prohi
bition law.
"llv careful reading of section 1 2
of Hie prohibition law It will be seen
that it is made criminal for any per
son to receive Intoxicating liquor,
the transportation or d-divcry of
which has been in violation of the
provisions of the section. The Leg
islature had a right to pass a prolii i
billon law prohibiting the manufac
ture and sali' id Intoxicating liquors
in the state o! Or. mm. It bad an
equal rig lit to limit the amount of.
intoxicating liquors that might he
lawfully delivered to any person
w ithin the state.
"The Webb Konyon law especi illy
permits the lawmaking power or the
-tate to em.'t legislation making
criminal Die receipt of alcohol as
was sought by Wadliains Ai Co.
"Intoxicating liquor, in the aspect
of being received, pusse-,.e or kept.
or In some way Used in a manner,
prohibited by the laws of the state
to which It is to b-. or Is In fact, im
ported. Is an outlaw and divested
of Its Interstate character and with
drawn Irom Interstate pioto.llon at
the hands of the Federal Govern
ment.
In my mini, there Is no doubt
but that it is entirely lawful for the
Legislature to piobihit or regulate
the receipt and possession of intoxi
cating liquors by a eitlen, whether
the same be foi the purpose of man
ufacturing extracts or lor personal
Use.
"I am conn lent that, if finally
called UpOll tO decide, til" SuprelllO
Colllt will uphold the validity of
si.tion IU of Oregon's prohibition
law."

EROM CENTRAL OREGON;
COUNTRY IS PROSPEROUS1
"If KuwnillU and other similar en
terprises are good for Bend, they
are good for Koseburg," was the
statement made here Ibis afternoon
h K. U. Waile, a prominent Sutber
lin residcut, who returned to Doug
las County recently ufter visaing in
Central Oregon.
"Tho HeniL country far surpassed
my expectation!," ail Mr. Waite
today, "and 1 was much surprised at
the progress that has been made
(hero during tho past few years.
Among tho active industries there
are large and modern sawmill
which furnish employment for an
army of lauu men. These men have
steady work and receive fair wages.
They spend their money with the
I tend merchants, and consequently
the business interests of that city
I are on a solid foundation. After
j inspecting conditions at Item! I am
now more, convinced than ever that
Koseburg, Sutherlin and other I'nvt
iua Valley towns need industries.
, Tho mills at Itend are modern I n
every particular, and are probably
among t he finest on the I'aciftc
'('oast. In addition to having a world
of timber, the Itend country Is
blessed wit h thousands of acres of
fertile farm lands. Alfalfa a ad
other grain thrives in that locality."
