any city or town needs no great
er argument than the .fact that
booster literature never contains
mention of the number of ; sa
loons. That prohibition is- worth
the while, from a business as
well as a moral standpoint, is
attested in the fact that boosting
literature going from towns hav
ing no "saloons contains mention
of that fact. The conditions pro
duced'by prohibition are held up
as an attraction and that these
conditions are not deterrent is
amply evidenced in the fact that
the prohibition tqwns of Oregon
have shown a growth as rapid as
any. If saloons meant more people
and more .business, if a licensed
liquor 'traffic were- an induce
ment to. prospective " business
men, to homeseekers,' to factory
builders, to men of large means
and. little means, Portland would
be advertising , in bold faced
type the extraordinary ' hum ber
of saloons within the limits. The
Commercial Club of' Portland'
would be fostering more saloons
and advertising the liberality of
conscience and- its laws. But
does Portland do this? "Not if
the court knows herself!" ."

Individual deposits in , the
banks of Oregon have increased
$16,103,678 over- theV figure of
the, year before. This stands
for prosperity, but only a small
per cent of the real advance the
state - has made. If to the
above total could be added the
vast sums that have gone into
farm and orchard lands, new
railroad- work, and general in
dustrial development Oregon
would loom up like Halley's
comet next June.
- Eugene has' enjoyed - so much
the festoon lighting on ; special
occasions that the city now pro
poses to double the number of
festoons and light the main; por
tion of the city in this way.
And only a few months ago Cor
vallis could'not see its way clear
to purchasing' at a very low
price a few festoons already
made up. But wait until we
are the size of Eugene! ; -

"Let us alone, '.', was the cry of
the devils Jesus met in Palestine
twenty centuries ago, and it is
the cry of organized evil today.
So Pastor Bassford told his con-:
gregation at the Baptist church
Sunday' night His sermon was
the third in a series on "The
Religion of Jesus" and dealt
with J esusV attitude toward sin,
When Ex-president Roosevelt
declared war upon the iniquitous
trusts a few years ago, ' the cry
of the devils of Palestine was re
echoed all over the land. ; "Let
us alone, Let us alone,' What
have" we to do with you, Mr.
Roosevelt." At the mere sight
of the 'big stick," the vested
interests cried out in terror and
with feigned indignation. "Let
us' alone,'' "Let us, alone."
When the temperance landslide
began a year or two ago and the
brewers saw the handwriting
upon: the wall which spelled out
the impending doom of their
damnable traffic, again we heard
the same old. cry of the devils
arising from every quarter of
our land, ' 'Let us alone. " And
this which , applies ' to '. reform
movements tnat extend all over
our land is equally ; true when
applied to our cities, -and town.
, Attack any evil that is degrad
ing the life of our -people,.. and
immediately the cry is raised,
"Let us alone." '
But the cry of the devils "fell
upon deaf ears. Jesus not only
rebuked them, but he cast them
out. , The same 'duty devolves
upon us in this generation.
Neither the prominence nor the
power of those who are guilty
must be allowed to deter us from
dping our duty. Wherever in
iquity lifts its brazen face, we
must strike it.,down and crush it
beneath our feet. There must
be no parleying, no compromise,
we must, hit' it and hit it hard.
Of course," any man who thus
uncompromisingly attacks Vthe
sins of his time, must expect to
suffer for his pains, - but that
ought . not to deter him ' from
following in the "path of "duty.
The yested interests nailed Jesus
Christ to 'a tree and then gloated
over their foul deed. But the
shadow of the cross, did not turn
the Christ' from; his duty. When
Ex-president Roosevelt attacked
the corrupt : practices ' . of . the
trusts, 'they did everything that
a crafty, resourceful and menda
cious band of robbersould do to
discredit it him in the eyes of.
his fellow-countrymen; and when
all else failed, did not hesitate to
plunge the whole country into a
financial panic to check his work.
But none of these things detered
him from doing his duty. When
Attorney Heney went after the
gang of grafters that for years
had been fattening at the public
crib in San Francisco, they gave
him a bullet and followed it by
an overwhelming defeat at the
polls recently, but that did riot
turn him from his duty. And
personal loss and suffering ought
not to turn any honest and
militant citizen from doing his
duty today. v .'
