WILL REMAIN DRY.
Prominent BuslncN Men of Wallowa
County Express Their Opinions.
George 8. Craig, the well known
stockman and banker of Wallowa
county, and B. B. Boyd, who for the
past three years has been engaged In
the real estate business at Enterprise,
came out last evening. Mr. Craig la
en route to Walla Walla to be present
at the graduation of his daughter,
who has Just completed a four years'
course. Mr. Boyd Is here for a few
days T.-'.r.i a view of directing attention
to the resources of Wallowa county.
Thesi gentlemen 'were Interviewed
last evening by an Observer represen
tative rgardlng th result of their two
years' experience as a "dry" county?
nn1 as the ouestlcn Is azaln to he
rted upon at the June election,, what.
In their opinion, the result would be.
Both gentlemen were emphatic In
their expressions aa to the belief that
there was no question whatever as
to the result, and the vote In favor of
continuing dry would be greatly In
excess of what it waa two years ago.
That two years ago both centleraen
recited the fact that the great ma
jority of the business men were op
posed to a dry county, they believed
the wiping out of the saloons would
b an In1ur hulnK. ToIn v th
great majority of the business houses,
after two years' experience, are' now
among the strongest supporters and
workers for a dry county. Mr. Craig
stated that he did not personally know
of a single voter who voted for a dry
county two years ago, but would vote
the same way In June; He does
know of many, however, who voted
the other way two years ago, who
are now "dry" advocates.
Business in every way was greatly
Improved Instead of being demoral-
lzi'd. M r it . now ; paying their
debts, supporting and educating their
families who did not do so when
Wallowa county had saloons.?
