OREGON IS DRIEST
STATE IN UNION
XKW LAW WKNT INTO KFr'MT
YKHTKKDAY AT 4 O'tLOTK
CRIME TO BE INTOXICATED
floral nmrliil Will Kiiforre Iaw to
letter Little Dllllrulty In
Anticipated However
As far as Intoxlcatinf beverages
may be concerned, Orgon became
as dry as the Suhara last Friday at
4 o'clock when the governor affixed
his signature to the so-called bone
dry bill which had passed the legis
lature on schedule time. The law
that has been enacted is simply an
act amendatory of the law passed
by the 1915 legislature and which
went Into effect January 1, 1916.
The new act, passed as the re
sult of the action of the people at
the polls on November 7, 1916, pro
hibiting the importation of intoxi
cating liquor, makes it unlawful to
give away intoxicants, to have them
in one's possession, to carry them
from place to place, to import them,
to drink them or, In nlaln words,
to have anything whatever to do
with them.
The local authorities have ex
pressed their intention of enforcing
the law In Crook County to the
letter and are making preparations
with that end in view.
While the new law does not give
the authorities warrant to search
for and seize Intoxicating liquor,
the former search provisions of the
law of 1915 still remain, allowing
the officers to enter and search
premises where intoxicating liquors
may be kept for the unlawful pur
pose of sale or barter rendering any
place or habitation a nuisance, or
any place where people resort for
the purpose of drinking or carous
ing although no sales may be made.
It is now more difficult to get
alcohol than ever before. Dentists,
druggists, physicians, scientists, art
ists, etc., must get a permit from
the district attorney before they
can purchase supplies. All other
persons must get a prescription
from a physician.
The law allowed five days within
which persons having ordered
"shipments" before the law was
signed by the governor, might re
cover them from the express offices.
This five days of grace expired yes
terday afternoon at 4 o'clock and
the express agents have 25 days
more within which to return all un
called for packages to the consign
ors. Little difficulty is expected in
this county by the authorities.
Drunkenness is now made a crime
by state law, and all such offenders
will be handled by the county au
thorities as well as by the city. As
a result drunkenness is likely to
become unfashionable,
CBas. Montgomery is having his
new house and barn wired by the
Deschutes Power Company, and
will have the buildings both well
lighted.
