To make the moat of the opportunities given them by the local option law without being accused of unfairness Is the Intention of the Oregon State Prohibition Alliance, as made public yesterday for the first time. At a recent meeting of the Alli ance the course to be pursued in deal ing with their adversary, the liquor in terest, was determined upon and has since lcn ratified by the officers and members as a whole. Their plan con sists of elections by counties In Novem ber. Should a county vote to support prohibition, saloons will forthwith lie en tirely eliminated therefrom. Should It go untl-prohililtlon, such precincts as support prohibition will be "dry" never theless. Thus the antl-Ilquor forces be lieve the widest benefit may accrue from the local option law and at the same time free them from the charge of un fairness llait would be brought should they gerrymander election districts to suit themselves, ns is allowable under the local option law.

A resolution to furnish mem bers with nostal curds for answer at tached, for convenience In Interrogat- , lug people nil about their private busl- j ness, was voted down, on the ground ! that such Inquiries might be deemed Im pertinent, or. If answered, might com- j pel tho society to accept the truth. The : subject for regulnr debate was. "Are j Women Brainless Because of Ten and . Tattle, or Tea and' Tattle Because ! Women Are Brainless?" The discussion; hemme nuite heated and the subject wns somewhat obscured by the person alities Indulged In and the more or less direct allusion to the shady past of some of the members added interest to what, taken a a whole,. was one of the most successful meeting of the chapter.
