LOGGERS QUIT WORK.
Because Lane Went Dry
Some Results of the new
. Drouth.
A report from Springfield, says
the Eugene Guard, is to the effect
that quite a number of theemployes
of the Booth-Kelly sawmills at that
place and at Wendling and a large
number of the employes of the lod
ging camps up the Willamette and
McKenzie rivers have quit work
because of the existence of prohi
tion in Lane county. It is said that
many more of the mill hands will
quit tonight when they receive
their pay.
It is a well known fact that a
ing men and those who think they
cannot get along without liquor are
not going to work where thev can
secure none. ;
These men quitting may incon
venience the Booth-Kelly Company
to a considerable extent, but the
company is now paying good wages
and may be able to secure a better
class of men to fill the places of
those who quit.
As a result of the recent election

4 in Sprngfield. 2 in Blue River
City and 1 at Waterville 25 in all,
:In Lincoln about half a dozen
went out of business, and in Yam
hill 14.
In Eastern Oregon, Wallowa
and Sherman counties went dry,
while Malheur and Wasco went par
tially dry, Hood River being the
main prohi camp. The saloon j
keepers of Ontario and Vale, in !
Malheur will contest the law in the 1
courts.
Fifty seven saloons in all went
out of business in Western Oregon
with a loss of revenue of about
$30,000.
SERVING SENTENCE.
For Carrying Concealed Weap
on Wanted to Start new
:- County Court off Right
John Stahlbush is serving out a
five days sentence in the city jail,
for carrying a concealed weapon,
having been lemanded yesterday by
police judge ates m deiauit ot a
fine of $10. John was on the war
path over at the court house when
the weapon was taken away from
him by Constable Wells. Stahl
bush was out of humor witli his
taxes. 'He failed to pay them in
time to get the rebate and in fact
until after they became delinquent
and there is now penalty and inter
est amounting to about $5. The
whole amount, penalty and interest
included is $47.35. He thinks the
county court is to blame for the
condition, and was before the new
commissioner's court twice during
its session yesterday forenoon, ar
guing his case. He finally drifted
into the sheriff's office where he
told Officer Wells that he was over
to see that the new court got start
ed off right and that, (patting his
hip pocket) ' 'he had de ting here
to do it wid." ' He pulled out the
gun far enough to display the han
dle, when Officer Wells promptly
disarmed him. Though the Wat
ters administration had nothing
whatever to do with the penalty
and interest on his taxes, John
thinks it had and has a grudge
against it to match. He has no
grudge against the new court.
