CITY OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER
PROHIBITION From the general sentiment of the community as
TOR OREGON CITY judged by those who have given the matter any
considerable thought and attention, the prohibitionists will carry all of the
city precincts at the election on November 4.
Sentiment through the city has generally changed since the last election.
It has turned toward the prohibition cause. The voters of the mills havt
ihown a sentiment in favor of the drys in this campaign that did not develop
during any of the others that have, at various times, swept through the
county. '
In addition, the women are counted upon by the dry element to go to the
polls in force this vear and to cast their votes almost en masse for the cause.
Certainly, a large number of them have registered this year and all of them
have shown a greater interest in the campaign than they have before.
The dry forces are counting upon them to play an important part in the
coming election. If the women vote as heavily as they believe they have a
reason to expect, and if the mill workers and others are found generally in
the dry column, the forces that have been favoring prohibition in the city be
lieve that success is assurred. That they have a right to this belief is gen
erally concceded among those who have studied the attitude of the various
forces that will enter into the battle next month. Unless one is interested
directly in the fight, it must be conceeded that the people will line this city
in the dry column in the coming campaign.
The sentiment now has swung back from the last wet and dry election.
It seems now an assurred fact that the saloons will go. Various factors
make this seem a certainty and those factors will play an important part in
the fight that ieth forces are to wage.
Though the two elements have organized and have a thorough campaign
outlined, the wets will generally find that the fight has already gone against
them and that the dry element has but to register its ballots at the polls for
the victory to be won. The churches, generally, too, have organized for a
campaign for prohibition and the votes that they will influence, more or less,
vili be important on the final reckoning.
With all of these factors to contend with, the wet element will be unable
to stem the tide that is now sweeping over the city and that, almost without
a doubt, will line the city in the dry column as soon as the fight is over.
There is hardly a chance that the wets can retreive themselves. The closing
of some saloons because of liquor sold to minors has played its part In the
changing of the community sentiment. Just why the attitude of the work
ers in the mills bns taken the turn th.it it nnnnrpnrlv bus i nnt nscio-nprl tn
any particular cause. It seems certain, however," that a majority of them
will vote for the dry cause and that the ballots that they will be able to cast
will have an important influence on the turn of the election.
So decidedly has the sentiment turned in the opposite direction to that
of the last election that almost all of those -who have studied the question at
all thoroughly or who have given the matter any considerable thought or in
vestigation are positive that there will be little question of the final results.
Just how the voters of Milwaukie will figure at the same time is not as
certain as in Oregon City. The tavern episode there, however, may have
something to do with the sentiment when it is called upon to register at the
polls. With these two cities on the list of the drys in the county, there will
be few incorporated towns left for the wets and Clackamas county will be
placed in the prohibition list of the state. " . '
In connection, the city will have to figure on a higher tax rate, because
of the loss of the $10,000 a year that is now turned in for the saloons. 'It
will probably mean that the levy will be heavier than now or that the
money will have to be raised from some other source to meet the current ex
penses. . At first, too, the authorities will have to especially vigilant because of the
effort that will undoubtedly be made to establish a "bootlegging" system
and blind tigers in the city. But these things can be stopped if the author
ities of the city and the county enforce the law. as they are sworn to do, and,
as it is expected, they will do. Law violations can be stopped by law en
forcement and nothing remains but for the officers to perform those duties
prescribed by law and the prohibition statute will not be made an excuse for
law breaking in the city limits. '
.Vivisection Is Worse Than
j Horrors of the Inquisition
By W. R. BRADSHAW of the New York Anti-vivisection Society
THE vivisector is a torturer WORSE THAN THOSE WHO PEE
FORMED HORRORS DURING THE MIDDLE AGES.
The public is bo stuffed and doped and duped with misrepre
sentation and fraud regarding ihe alleged benefits of vivisection that
there is no moral energy left to believe the truth when it comes along.
THE WORK OF VIV1SECTORS IS WORSE THAN THE HORRORS
OF THE INQUISITION OR THE PRACTICE OF THROWING BABIES
INTO THE FLAMING FURNACES OF MOLOCH.
It is WORSE THAN WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE, not merely
by reason of the greater tortures to sensitive life, but because it is done
with an intelligence fully awake to the horrors of past ages and with a
curse on its lips for historic infernalities.
Vivisection demoralizes the vivisector by putting into his hands the
godlike powers of life and death over the subhuman tribes of life. The
mere possession of this power leads to its exercise, and its exercise
HARDENS HIS HEART. Like Belshazzar in the halls of Babylon,
there are NO LIMITS TO HIS INSANE ORGIES.
Vivisection not only is a curse to the animals and to their vivisectors,
tort it is also a CURSE TO SOCIETY ITSELF. The lust for the lives
of animals is inculcated in the schools, preached in the churches, praised
by the physician in his'daily rounds, and the purchased sheets of the
press howl for the glory of the MOST SICKENING AND USELESS
OF TORTURES. ' ' .. .
CREEDS AND John D. Rockefeller, Jr., speaking to his Bible class the
RELIGION other day, said7 among -other things, that "creeds and the
ologists are all right in the pulpit and in the seminaries, but they don't con
stitute religion. All these points of difference over theology have arisen
since Christ's time, and some of the theologists have created them." Mr.
Rockefeller added that, in his opinion, should Christ visit New York at
present he would advise theologians to stop their "hair-splitting" and take
up a more useful work.
These sentiments are not exactly original with Mr. Rockefeller, yet since
he has given utterance to them they will attract attention in quarters where
similar opinions, voiced by ordinary mortals, would have been dismissed by
these same theologians with a mere shrug of the shoulders and a superior
smile. Nevertheless it is true that some such opinion is pretty generally held
these days by the rank and file of people; and it is owing to this that there
has come about what many theologians have dubbed "the deplorable falling
off in attendance at our churches." And the opinion seems to be based upon
fact. "
The Carpenter of Gallilee, delivered his message, to the world in two
very simple sentences do unto others as ye would be done by ; and love thy
neighbor as thyself. These two axioms were the fundamentals of the religion
that He preached ; they embraced all of the best and noblest of Christianitj'.
Whatever else He may have said or preached or urged merely amplified these
keystones of His belief and practices; and it remained for His later disciples
to read a mystery into His words that needed interpretation according to the
several creeds that today divide the church" into numberless cliques and
classes.
The divisions were formed, in the first place, mainly because some pre
tending disciple sought to gain a leadership among those who imagined that
by following Him they were also following His footsteps. Some of these
earthly leaders sought a more liberal interpretation .of Christ's teachings
than did others; but for the most part they merely hedged their'"Christian
ity" about with rules and regulations and beliefs that were utterly foreign
to the teachings of Christ himself. And since then theologians of these dif
ferent schools -have been busy trying to find a justification for these altera
tions and "improvements" upon Christ's own teachings.
In other words, instead "of trying to do such work for betterment as
might be possible in this world, they have been spending days and years argu
ing the case of their particular creed, and calling this "religion." And a
realization of this on the part of thinking people, .there has arisen a dissatis
faction with much of this modern "religion," such as was voiced by Mr.
Rockefeller. Some people have not only expressed their utter disgust with
these conditions, but have also sought to better things. These are the true
religious leaders "of today. ' Their number is small, however, when compared
with the great mass of people, who have simply turned from the dross and
chaff of argument offered them by theologians and substituted nothing else.
It is to this latter class that the duty of the real church, and of real re
ligion, lies. They must be given a true, wholesome, simple, Christlike sys
tem of ethics, and so be brought into a closer relation with the scheme of
things. The work that Christ did, and the 'work that He outlined, can
still be done today in New York and everywhere else. Men who have
the clarity of' vision to see this, and the moral courage to say it, and to show
the way, are the real disciples of Christ, the real leaders for good and ad
vancement. Mr. Rockefeller appears to be one of these, he seems to be
trying to do the work and for this should have his measure of credit. His
utterances may displease some theologians, so-called, but they will work for
a bettering of conditions, and if considered carefully by enough people
theologians and others will result in a furthering of the work for good that
was commenced by the man who could pity and lift up even a Magdalene.

THE. WONDER OF STORY
-TELLING.
The good mother who gathers
her children from the streets for
a twilight, firelight tory telling
, hour is developing in the soul of
those young oues a beauty and
an ideal and a love of the nobler
things that will in after years
hold her children honorable men
and virtuous women when oth
ers less cared for stumble and
fall. And story telling was
healthful for all ages. Adults
should frequently renew their
youth in the magic story telling
circle Lore of story telling
could keep them children long
, after they numbered the years
of lite counted by the psalmist.
On the day that we burn the
books and take to story telling
by the blazing pile the forgotten
joys bf the olden world will
gather to warm themselves by
the blaze while they Msten. en
tranced as of yore. And they'll
