Liquor Regulation
Brings Income
(Rj- T'nltcl Press.)
VANCOUVER, 1). C, Nov. 10.
Cities in llrltish Columbia wll re
ceive a total of $1,300,000 to help
keep the wolf away from the taxpay
er's door as a result of the operation
of the "state regulated" distribu
tion of liquor in the province during
the past year.
Liquor Is controlled and sold under
permit by the liquor board, under
the provincial "moderation" 4ct. The
board employs 2T.0 persons, many of
them returned soldiers.
Since the liquor law went Into er
fect a year ago medicinal prescrip
tions for liquor were reduced by an
enormous percentage. In the prev
ious fiscal year, when the province
was "bonedry" 141, 60S prescriptions
were Issued, whereas during the past
year only 6.r,f.8 persons found use
for medicinal liquor.
The province charges a stiff fee for
the Issuance of a permit to buy liquor
through government warehouses. Re
venue from the licenses during the
past year amounted to $1,500,000.

Contract Let to LW. Metzger
for Construction of Build,
ingon Club Grounds
OFFICIAL HEADS
11) TAKE TUMBLE
! Under Leadership of Walter
Pierce State Will Get
Good Shakeup
IS TO START AT ONCE
Contractor la Commencing work at
Once and Agrees to Hava tha
Structure Ready for Occupan
cy In 60 or 90 Daya.
The contract was let today for tho
construction of the club house to be
erected by the Roseburg Country
Club. The club bouse Is to be built
by Contractor L. W. Metzger, who
submitted the lowest bid. It la anti
cipated that the building will cost in
the neighborhood of $7,S0O when com
pleted, exclusive of furnishings.
The structure Is to be one story In
heiglh and will be 105 feet long. The
main assembly hall will be 50 by 34
feet in size and will be heated by a
large fireplace. At one end will be a
kitchen, dining room and bed room,
and a ladies' locker and dressing
room. At the other end will be a
smoking room and a men's locker and
dressing room.
Extending the full length of the
building in front will be a porch four
teen feet in width. The floors of both
the assembly hall and the porch will
be of the best grade lumber so that
they may be used for dancing If de
sired.
In the rear there is to be construct
ed one of the most beautiful spots In
tho county. There Is a Btrln about 30
feet wide between the club house site
and the river. There la a high bank
with a small grove of trees and this
is to be cleaned out and put in flow
ers, lawn and cement walks so that
it will be an Ideal place to apend a hot
summer afternoon or evening. There
is a superb view of the river from
this point.
The contractor agrees to start work
at once and will have the building
nnished In 60 or 90 davs. The con
tract was signed by A. F. Sether as
president nnd C. 9. McElhinny as sec
retary and was approved by the direc
tors. The building committee composed
of D. J. Stewart and A. J. Worlcy will
have charge of the Inspection work.

meda county campaign committee for
prohibition enforcement todav claimed

on tho strength of a recheck of the
Alameda county vote. The county
chairman hald it Oiad reduced the

ment L'4,279 votes, thus wiping out
the previous statewide unfavorable
majority of 21.374.

SALEM. Nov. 9. Assumption of the
executive chair by Walter M. Tierce,
victorious democratic caudidute, next
January, is expected to be followed by
a general exodus of department heads
and state employes generally who owe
their attachment to the slate payroll
to the patronage of Governor Olcott,
and the appearance of many new
faces In state house circles.
In fact many Olcott supporters now
holding lucrative positions in the em
ploy of the state are already casting
about for a soft Bpot on which to
alight when the general house clean
ing, which Is confidently expected, Is
undertaken. Many of those occupying
the most desirable state offices at the
disposal of the' governor are expected
to tender their resignations Imme
diately upon the advent of the new
administration, rather than await the
inevitable descent, of the executive's
axe.
Highway Jobs Plums.
Choicest among the plums to be
gathered by the supporters of the vic
torious candidate . are those In the
state highway department, with par
ticular reference to the position of
state highway engineer which la now
filled by Herbert 8. Nunn at a salary
of $7200 a year. Neither Is the Job
of secretary to the state highway com
mission, now filled br Roy A. Kllen
at a salary of $4800 annually, to be
overlooked, not to mention the several
other subordinate positions In that de
partment at salaries ranging in desir
ability from $300 a month upward.
Of course these positions are directly
at the disposal of the highway com
mission, rather than the governor him
self, but the commission is appointed
by the governor and a complete new
deal la expected In this department
following the acceptance of the re
sponsibilities of the state's affairs by
Pierce.
Only slightly less desirable than the
highway department Jobs are the
three Industrial accident commission
orships carrying with them salaries
of $3600 annually and all at the dis
posal of the governor. VVIllian A.
Marshall, republican, has been a mem
ber of this commission since Its or
ganization In 1914, serving under
three governors, but Will T. Kirk,
republican, and J. W. Ferguson, demo
crat, are both Olcott appointees and

Government Keeps Land.
I0 SAYS DEMOCRATIC
LANDSLIDE A RESULT OF THE
ATTITUDE Or ADMINISTRATION
Both Parties Start Presidential Booms Tuesday's Vote Showed
the Breaking Away of the People From "Party
Beliefs" and the "Vote It Straight."
The biggest timber Bale In the his
tory of the Roseburg Land Office was
completed today, almost eighty million
feet of timber tributary to Coos Day
and the Coqullle River being sold by
the government for approximately
$187,000. The timber was bought by
the Coos Bay Lumber company of
Mursh,field and lien It. Chandler of
Marshfield.
The timber bought by Mr. Chandler
lies In section 7, township 27 south,
range 13 west, and section 13, town
ship 37 south, range '13 west. All
of this timber lies tributary to Coos
Bay and amounts to 61,430,000 feet.
The greater part of the timber brought
$2.50 per thousand fe.et, which is con
sidered an excellent price. Some of
the poorer timber did not sell so high,
but the entire lot brought the sum
of $117,081.20. Mr. Chandler has sold
the logging rights on this property to
the Coos Bay Lumber company.
The Coos Bay Lumber company It
self, through A. H. Powers and C. L.
Davis, also representing the Pacific
States. Luuiber company, bought the
timber on Section 19. township 27
south, range 12 west. There were 28,
475,000 feet of timber in this section
and the purchase price was $70,327.88.
The total amount of today's sale was
18T,4U9.08.
The Cooa Bay "Lumber company Is
preparing to log oft the land at once.
The issuing of the patent Is being
expedited as the crews are working
in the immediate vicinity of the new
ly acquired property and It is desired
to keep the work moving.
A 40 acre tract of timber In Lane
county had also been offered for sale,
but the party who had made Inquiry
regarding the timber and who had ex
pected to buy lost his mill by fire only
a short time ago and was unnblo to
buy at this time. The timber will be
sold at a future date, however.
The government does not release
title to the land in these sales, only
the timber being disposed of. The
timber becomes taxable as soon as a
patent Is Issued and remains on the
tax rolls until the timber Is cut. The
land is a portion of the O. and C.
land grants which recently reverted
to the government.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 10. The
democratic success at Tuesday'a elec
tion was Inevitable because the repub
lican leaders failed to correctly Inter
pret the sentiment and opinion of the
nation, William Qibba McAdoo, demo
cratic presidential possibility, charg
ed In a statement Issued today.
"The administration has been re
actionary, narrow, provincial and un
inspiring from the outset," he said.
"It has made no appeal to the great
moral and spiritual forces without
which no nation can endure. It has
been materialist, and soulless.
Its economlo policies have been
equally mistaken. The Fordney tariff
ia Indefensible. The new Income tax
law la discrimination against many
and the preference of a few.
"The administration has disregard
ed the farmer, laboring man and the
great consumer class and has shown
favoritism to the trusts and powerful
Interests."
Presidential Booms Stirted.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10. (United
Press.) Some of the election results
seem as follows:
The beginning of presidential booms
by both parties.
The boom of the progressive stock
In both hovses.
Increased farm bloc power.
Places for new leaders of both
parties. The republicans must choose
a new house leader and the democrats
a new senate leader.
It has enlivened the wet and dry
Issue with a certainty that It will be
one of the chief Issues In 1S24 .
It has revived the Newberry case.
It gave the soldiers' bonus a stew
Impetus.
The breaking away of (he people
from "party beliefs" and the "vote It
straight" slogan.

We were too proud to live for years
When our poor death could dry those
tears
Of little children yet unborn.
It scarcely mattered that at morn,
When manhood's hope was at its height,
We stopped a bullet in mid-flight.
It did not trouble us to lie
Forgotten 'neath the forgetting sky.
So, long sleep was our only cure
That when Death piped of rest made sure
We cast our fleshly crutches down,
Laughing like boys in Hamelin town.
And this we did while loving life,
Yet loving more than home or wife
The kindness of a world set free
For countless children yet to be.

TURKS DEMAND' RETURN

LONDON, Nov. 10. Constantinople
is practically cut off from communica

gently deny any of Ihe mnny persis
tent rumors of serious trouble In the
Near East, resulting from Turkish oc
cupation or the Turkish capital. The
British cabinet ia In session today so
as to be ready for any emergency that
may arise over the aggressive attitude
of the Turks. The Angora govern
ment has dvclarcd its hand, however,
and this fart has precipitated a grave
crisis in the demands for nullifica
tion of all "capitulations" arising from
Turkish defeats during the late world
war. The Angora government also
refuses to recognize the penalties In
curred by the sultan's administration
and meted out by Inn allies peace
terms at Versailles. The cabinet to
day considered .the contents of a mes
