MALHUER IS DRY
Malheur county carried for prohibition
at the election Monday and now that
county will be without .saloons for at
least two years. M. Jacobsgaard, form
erly of Baker City but who has been en
gaged intha wiolesile liquor business in
Ontario for- the past six months, is in
Baker today. He says the vote for pro
hibition carried by an alarming majorit,
in that Gou ty, only three or four pre
cincts in the entire county going wet
This will put many saloons and whole
sal houses in that county out of business.
Mr. Jaco'isgaard in discussing the situa
tion said;
"The real causa of Malheur going for
prohibition is the manner in which the
saloons have been conducted. I believe a
marjority of the voters of Malheur are in
favor of saloons if they are conducted
along the propes lir.es. But in Malheur
t 'ere was gamb'ing and music and open
towr.s and evtryth ngthat the prohibition
ists could object to in addition to the
regular liquor business. Tne result was
that the county went dry. And it may be
sum lium tif

Portland, June 8 A a result of the
recent election two hundred saloon will
be forced to close in the state of Oregon,
through the adoption of county prohibition.
The complete count shows that Bart ton.
Linn, Lane, Tillamook. Wallowa. Malheur
and Yamhill went "dry." Partial re.
turns indicate the same result in Sher
man, Gilliam, Lincoln and Crook counties.
Coos county went dry except in the larger
towns. Many precinct in wet counties

net km to the liquor Interest i esti
t&ated. at $750,000. The breweries ar
the heaviest loser. There were but two
xwtoriea gained by the liquor lntere.1. end
those were in Multnomah county.
Eight counties in Oregon "wen. dry"
in the election last Monday, sa far as re
turns are as yet available, end others are
still to be heard from- The "dry." coun
ties are; Benton, oarrled by ITQ votes;
Sherman.by 179; Linn, by 490 Lens, by
850; Yamhill, by 260; Coos, by 100;
Tillamook, by 100; and Wallowa, by a
small margin.
Counties which rejected prohibition SI a
whole were Malheur, by a small plurality;
Polk, by 269 Morrqw. by 62; Wasco, by
150. By the terms of the local option
law, under which the prohibition election
were held, a county which reJegUd pre
hlbition es a whole receives prohibition in
ths prscinots voting for it. ' "
, A very active campaign for prohibition
was waged In the foregoing counties be
tween the liquor forces on the one eide
and the prohibition forces on the other.
Exact figures of the pluralties of Mon
day's election will not be secured until the
official canvass shall be made by the Sec
retary of the State on the returns from
the several counties. These returne will
not, however, change to any considerable
degree the pluralties as they are already
estimated.
Chamber'.ain's lead over Withycombe
for Governor will probably be between
2S00 and 500, and that of Bourne over
Gearin for United States Senator will fal
slightly urir 2E00.
Woman suiTrage was defeated by ap
proximately 10,000, the local-option
change by psrhaps 9.000, and the Bar
low road appropriation by about 7500.
Iiiultnomah County gave the Barlow bill
300 plurality, but the bill encontered
heavy opposition l.i other, counties, such
as Clackamus, Marion, and Polk.
- The referendum appropriation bill of
the last Legislature, providing for state
nstiutions. is sustained by perhaps 1 3,000.
Majorities for all the other initiative meas
ures will range from 15,000 to 30,000.
the latter figures probably being attained
by the majorities for the gross earnings
tax bills, which received a larger vote than
ar.y of the bills in the election.
The majority for the anti-pass bill will
exceed 20,000. and for the State Printer
amendment 25,00.
Only partial returns have been secured
from the countie s cn the amendments, but
they are complete enough to show the
trend of the majorities. O
