The Wets' investigators on the other hand come hero to find facts to prove tlhut Oregon is going to the bow-wows since she mounted the water wagon. An organized protest was made here against a circular distributed by the California Grape Protective as sociation. This circular said that since prohibition became enecuve, "Portland, the largest city in the state, ihas entered the worst financial and industrial period of its history.", But 111 reiuung mese tniiist-a, Northwest businessmen are extreme ly cautious. They want to be neu tral. They aren't sure they are through with liquor yet. The prohi bition measure goes on the ballots again this fall, and the voters again will decide whether the water -wagon slrJall survive. o, when the California investiga tors say that Pacific Northwest cities are on the road to ruin, the business men who want to refute these state ments must grind their teeth in neu tral rage and pass out as many fig ures as possible to show the correct condition of affairs. The bankers won't say a word. But they present these figures: PortlandBank clearings January 1 to June 1, 1916 increased $10,405, 0G7 over the same period of 191(5. An increase in deposits of $7,865,709 I'or Portland and $12,093,421 for the eni tire slate is shown between January 1 and May 1. Loans and discounts in creased $4,905,120; of 332 saloon buildings vacated Jan. 1 all but 21 have been occupied. Seattle Clearings for the first six months of 1910 were $350,349,975 as against $290,497,097 for the same per iod in 1915. Spokane Deposits in 13 Spokane banks in June, 1910 were $37,702,459 as against $:0,97,5.ri8 in June, 1915. Clearings for tihe same period "showed substantial increases over the same period in 1915," according to R. L. Ruiter. president of a Spokane bank, who refused to comment on the effect of prohibition in the financial world. Determined to be neutral, bankers would rather have California people believe sun-spots arc responsible for prosperity or poverty, whichever the versatile investigators happen to find, than to have them attribute these things to prohibition.
