. The Testimony of Those vYno Know.
' what a man who has no actual Crs'
hand knowledge of the subject may say
has little weight. But the words of
men who really know ought to carry
conviction. Here Is the testimony of,
such men: .
I am somewhat familiar with con
ditions existing in the towns over the
state which have voted "dry" and I
have yet to visit the first city where
in the business men o that commun
ity, would prefer to return to the old
conditions existing before the saloons
were driven out. Without " an excep
tion, they advise me that they are do
ing more business and better business
and the collections are far better than
they were before they .voted the sa
loons out. The people are buying more
and better stuff and are providing
better for their families than they
did when they had saloons In their
midst. Governor Hay. of Washing
ton. .
Views of fonr Governors of States
That Have Tried No Saloon Policy.
Mr. James D. Johnson, the leader of
the local Prohibition fight In Roanoke
Virginia, recently telegraphed to the
governors of four prohibition states
as follows:: ' . ..
' Roanoke, Virginia, Sept 24.
"Ronortort In local ontlon fla-ht here
prohibition has worked great damage
to material and moral Interests ' of
your state. Wire facts. ,
(Signed) JAMES D. JOHNSON.
Replies were received from Gover
nor Comer of Alabama, Governor Kit
chin of North Carolina, Governor Noel
of Mississippi and Governor Stubbs
of Kansas. The&were as follows:
Montgomery, Ala., Sept 25,-1909
"J. D. Johnson, Roanoke Va.:
'Telegram received.. The reverse Is
true. . - ;: , .. .
(signed) 'B. R. "COMERS, Gov."
. Raleigh, N. ,C, Sept. 24, 1909.
"James D. Johnson Roanoke, Va.: .
"Report very erroneous. Prohibition
has been generally successful. Has
greatly diminished ; the consumption
of Intoxicants. '
(Signed) "w!'W. KITCHEN, Gov."
Jackson, Miss., Sept. 24, 1909.
"James D. Johnson Roanoke, Va.; i
"Telegram received. Report that
prohibition has damaged Mississippi,
materially and morally, la untrue. On
the contrary, as conceded by many
who opposed It, and it Is as well en
forced as a number of other criminal
statutes. Counties and cities which
have bad prohibition for ten years or
more, outstripped those similarly sit
uated licensing liquor sales before
state-wide prohibition. ;v -
(Signed) "E. F. NOEL, Gov."
f'Topeka, Kan., Sept 25, 1909.
"James D. Johnson, Roanoke Va.: ".
"The statement that our prohibitive
policy has worked great damage to
the moral and material interests ' of
Kansas is a notable absurd falsehood.
There Is not a political or social orga
nization In this state that does not
concede that our temperance policy
has promoted higher moral standards
and practices, and advanced the ma
terial Interests of the state enormous-,
ly. Kansas was never nearer being un
animous for prohibition than It Is to
day, because It Is a good thing, and
it would be impossible to find even
live per cent of our people who would
vote for the return of the saloon un
der any conditions of restrictions.
. (Signed) "W. R. STUBBS. Gov."
Knoxville, Tenn., May, 18, 1909.
Mr. R. R. Nance . ,.;
Portland, Oregon.
Dear Sir. Mayor Brooks asked me
to give you some facts regarding the
operation of the temperance laws In
this city which went "dry" nearly
three years ago. ,
I will say briefly that since saloons
closed our city has improved 59 per
cent from moral standpoint. Drunken
ness has decreased and so has every
other crime. Of course it is Impossible
to Btop the shipping of liquor here
and some is Bold in violation to law,
but the great benefit came when the
open saloon was banished. The. boys
are not being trained to walk Into
saloons and drink beer and when Its
hard to get any they don't get It many
times. To bear this out I will say that
we Beldom arrest boys now and I can
not remember when we got one drunk.
Our people are happier and the poor
er classes have more of the. necessar
ies of life than when saloons were
here.
I have given you briefly some facts.
I don't know which side of the fight
you are on and It dont make any dif
ference to me as what I have said are
facts and I am responsible for all
statements contained.
Respectfully
(Signed) W. P. CHANDLER,
Chief of Police.
Because we believe that prohibi
tion will do for Oregon what these
men say It has done for their com
munities we are working for the ad
option of a prohibition law In Ore
gon. I and my friends have no pecun
iary Interest In this matter. But w
are giving of our money to this 'cau
for the common good and for the rY
Ing generation. I submit that we
not deserve hatred and adverse critj
cism for this, but rather the encoi
agement of every one who desires t
best things for the community.
