The voter should carefully
scan all the measures on the
lengthy ballot next month be
fore affixing his cross. There
are some measures thereon that
should receive the most careful
consideration before the vote is
cast. As a matter of fact. Ore-
iron is cottinir entirely too many
new laws. Every year the voter
is presented with a number of
measures for which to cast
his ballot, and in some cases it
is afterward discovered that
they are not what they scorned
after being in actual practice.
The best way to do when in
1 1 ri
uouot is to vote no. mere are
very few new laws needed in
Oregon. On the contrary, there
are really too many laws now,
and it might be better to climi'
note u few rather than create
more.

"Shall Mayor Albee and City
Commissioners Dicck and Brow
stcr be recalled" will be decid
ed by the voters of Portland at
the election to be held about one
week previous to the general
stnto election, if the 0800 names
aro found by tho city auditor to
havo been legally signed to tho
recall petition. The auditor is
now checking over tho names.
U. E. Kennedy, a real estate
man. is to be n recall candidate
for muyor, as will also A. G.
Rushlight; W. A. Loot, on at
torney, tho candidate against
browstcr, and II. IS. Abry, an
employo of tho U. S. ISmr moor
ing department, is tho candidate
against Commissioner DIeck.
Tho only comment made by the
ollicials is that if it is the will
of tho people that they bo recall
ed, they arc satisllcd.

Questions Answered
Loading Now York business

provement in general business
conditions, which have been
more or less disarranged sinco
tho opening of tho European
war. All agrco that commercial
disturbances following the war
scaro aro gradually being ad
justed to meet tho unusual con
ditions. Tho National City
Iiank has already established
threo branch banks in South
American countries, through
which American exchnngo will

toforo used exclusively in tho
South American trade. Largo
American importing concerns in
Now York report that they are
beginning to receive shipments

American products and that they
beliovo that within a short time
this trndo will bo almost normal,

York flnnncinl men soy that tho
action of tho National City Hank
providing exchange facilities
through their new branches in
South America is very likely to
mako Now York exchange ns ac
ceptable to bouth American men

To tho Editor: As tho Com
mittee of Ono Hundred drew up
tho Oregon dry amendment,
may wo venture to ask your
space to answer two queries
that havo been asked broadcast
regarding this measure. These
are: n passed, when would the
Oregon dry amendment tako
effect? Why was the word dis
tribution loft out of the amend
ment?
Tho measure would not take
effect until January l. 101G, thus
allowing over ono your lor busi
ness to becomo readjusted. As
to the very important question
of "distribution." J. E. Wheeler,
chairman of tho Committee of
One Hundred, makes the follow-
ng statement:
"Tho 'wet' forces aro seeking
to mako capital of tho fact that
proposed Oregon dry amendment
does not forbid tho "distribu
tion" of liquor, but merely its!
manufacture and sale. They
arc correct. This was done;
designedly and deliberately by
those who drew th s amendment.
Oregon has many citizens, es-
pecially of foreign birth, who!
desiro to have liquor in thoir!
homes. They feel that it would
be a hardship and an infringe
ment of their personal liberty,
absolutely to forbid them the:
uso or liquor. Tho present pro-,
posed law docs not forbid the .
uso of liquor by any citizen, bo
ho poor or rich, provided ho'
wishes to have this shinned
direct from some other state to
his own home. Hut tho issue
this timo is the 'open saloon' :
and tho salo of liquor in clubs
and elaewhero. As somo Ger
man farmers out in Washington
county put It: 'Wo aro going to
voto for Oregon dry. Since
Hillsboro went dry. wo can still
have our glass of beer at homo
if wo choose, but wo do not go
to town and drink more than wo
ought to, and waste all our timo
hanging around saloons and
neglecting our fnrmB, nnd spend
our money treating a lot of
others who are doing tho same
thing. And if that is good for
us in Washington county it is
good for tho state.' The com
paratively small quantity of
liquor that is or will bo drunk in
tho home if tho individual must
send weeks in advanco for it to
somo distant city, may or may
not do serious damaire. Wo enn
decide ns to that somo other
timo, but the open saloon, with
its vicious treat ng hnb ts and
. association, its universal tempta-
mm, ttunu iu uiu uunnn'oa until
and tho laborer, tho man who
can't say 'no.' and especially to
tho growing youth of Oregon is
inexcusable." Committeo of
Ono Hundred.

Whon mother brings the rocker
out.
And turns the lamp down low,
Then takes me in her snowy
arms,
To sing so soft and slow.
I know that now tho timo has
come
To leave tho world and go
To far olT lands where children
play
In garments white as snow.
Where all tho sky is azure blue,
And all the grass is green:
Where all tho stones aro sugar
plums,
And children aro supreme.
Whero nil tho beasts arc nice
and kind.
And birds thoir sweetest sing;
Whero apple trees and cherry
trees
Thoir bounteous offerings
bring.
Like pebbles on a sandy bench
The children patter by:
They romp among tho blossoms
fair,
While singing to tho sky.
There isnopnin or sorrow there,
No class, no rich nor poor:

Each evening when tho sun doth

I meet that joyous band.
Then romp nnd play 'till break

In happy Slumberland.
