Building permits from January to August, the last nine wet months of 1913, were $388,925; from November, 1913, to September, 1914, the next eleven “dry” months, they were $120,- 000 less, or $268,160. The grammar school opening day en- rollment in 1913 was 1510; on the same day 1914, 1469, but “business is fine.” Bank deposits show a decrease of $309,942 since the town went “dry,” even after allowing for the $485,000 deposited this year from sale of bonds in Boston. The decrease, therefore, really should be $794,912, but “busi ness is fine.” The attendance at the “Cherry Fair” this year was about one half what it was the last “wet” year. The Ministerial Association before the elee- ticn which made Salem “dry,” told the Cherry Fair promoters that they would make up for the donations u«u ally made by the saloons, b»*t utterly failed to do so this year and the pro moters refused to hold that carnival. The “Cherrians, ” consisting of 100 roal boosters, but of no prohibitionists, then pledged their personal member ship for the necessary funds, requiring the payment on their part of $500. To rub it in, the Methodists then turned their church into a restaurant, put the kitchen in the pulpit and competed with the legitimate restaurants for the little business that their proprietors had hungrily looked for ns a possible annual godsend. Business must be “fine” in any city when building permit«, payrolls, bank deposits, bankruptcies, closed stores, de populated dwellings, depressed realty values, school enrollments and carnival statistics all tell so dreary a story of literal fact. Maybe the prohibitionists mean that the “agitating business” is fine.

A year ago every store was filled and crowds of people thronged its streets. Every merchant was making money, practi­ cally everyone who wanted work was employed. Every­ one seemed happy and con tented, except the prohibi­ tionists. Oregon- City and Clack­ amas County, of which Ore­ gon City is the county seat, present as lamentable a condition in a business sense as a defunct corpora­ tion about to go into the hands of a receiver. In fact, a receivership for Ore­ gon City already has been seriously discussed by cer­ tain of its creditors, and Judge Campbell of that city has declared his willingness to declare such a receiver­ ship, if formal application were made to him, as he would for my bankrupt corporation.” A special election has been called by the city for November 9 “to relieve the financial condition of the city,” the purpose being to vote $250,000 5 per cent bonds and to increase the tax levy eight mills in or­ der to take care of the new indebtedness. Today Springfield looks like a deserted village, business is par­ alyzed, and more than eight or ten people on its main street at any one time would actually be ther cause of excitement. Yet the Committee of One Hundred says: “Business is fine in dry towns.” ' at the Springfield went “dry election last fall, the saloon! closing January 1.
