Portland Telegram.
Corvallis is having a stren
uous time over the attempted
enforcement of its prohibition
law. -The citizens of that town
decided by majority vote that
the business of liquor selling
within its boundaries should
be prohibited. So far as the
open conduct of the business
is concerned, the will of the
Corvallis people has been com
plied with; but a number of
the thirst-stricken Citizens,
not in sympathy with the lo
cal option manifesto, have re
sorted to the old subterfuge of
running what is called a so
cial club, where a jag of any
brand can be acquired with
the usual speed and facility.
The municipal authorities are
making war on this club, and
while the townspeople appear
to have the best of it, the; is
sue is somewhat in doubt.
Whatever may be is the
view of decent, law-abiding
citizens throughout the state
on the question of local option
there can be but little doubt
but the sympathy of such is
with the people of Corvallis.
When the majority of voters
in any municipality , declare
for or against a ' proposition
of this character, in which
there is legal provision for
registering the public will, the
verdict should stand. The
people of Corvallis, if they are
so inclined, have the right to
declare the conduct of the liq
uor business within the pre
cincts of the city unlawful.
And no such cheap subterfuge
as this of maintaining a
"blind pig" under the dis
guise of a social club should
prevail against such declara
tion. Corvallis is simply
fighting for the supremacy of
law that is legitimately es
tablished, as expressing the
will of the majority. It is the
wish of decent citizenship in
Oregon that the people of Cor
vallis will win.

after the opening of college. Nev

each other so early in the season at

second team carried the ball and
was able to make yardage against
"Well ' husky veterans of the first elev

.James Herron is, hauling his hops
to town now and storing them in
the Marshall Miller warehouse.
They have not been sold, and will
not be until there is a better figure
than the current price of 13 cents.
Mr. Herron thinks, and most every
body else thinks, buyers are pur
posely Keeping the price down in
order to pick up lots here ?nd there
at starvation figures. All accounts
agree that there is no reason why
the piice should be' lower than last
year. Twenty cents is what nearly
all local growers are looking for
ward to, and as a matter of fact,
expect to realize.
Mr. Herron has above 18000
pounds of hops, the product of his
16-acre yard. His yield was some
thing over 1,100 pounds per acre.
His hops, he figures, have cost him
$1,800. At twenty cents, they will
bring $3,600.
Laslyear, Mr. Herron sold at 25
cent. He could by holding, have
secured a better figure. There was
a particular reason however, why
he sold at 25. There was a mort
gage of $2,500 on his farm. It is
what is known as the Bundy place,
and the mortgage had been there
for 20 years. In that long time,
it had neither grawn larger or small
er, and with an offer in hand for
his hops that would cancel the debt
and blot out the mortgage, there
was a terrible temptation to accept.
After some hesitation, Mr. Herron
concluded not to gamble on futures
and sold, applying the money at
once to the cancellation of the debt
that had hung over the farm so
long.
