WANTS NO AMENDMENT
POLICY IS ANNOUNCED BY ANTI
SALOON LEAGUE.
Believes People Alone Have Power to
Change the Existing Local
Option Law.
The Anti-Saloon League has announced
its policy and outlined Its attitude bear
ing on the local option law and political
parties. At a meeting of the board of
trustees on Tuesday evening definite ac
tion was taken and the result was an
nounced yesterday.
It was decided to work for the defeat
of amendments by the Legislature, to the
local option law, and also was decided to
affiliate with no political parties, although
the support of members of all parties will
or- sought. The league's position with
reference to the existing local option law
Is as follows:
First That the question of the amendment of
the local-aption law by the Legislature in--lolvee
the broader one of the power of the
legislature to amend at will a law enacted by
iV.e people wider the Initiative and referendum
. :auf of ttte constitution.
Sfoond That the question of the power of
thf Legislature uthUt this clause of the con
t ituUon over a law cnaeted by the people has
ncr been directly before the courts of this
;ate.
Third That whatever amendments to the lo
ts i option law now wsemR deairable or hereafter
..n further testing o this law may appear so,
should be enacted by the people.
Fourth The Anti-Saloon League, therefore for
th- present will hold, in abeyance the question
of amending the law on its own Initiative, and
will work fe-r the following ends: (1) To de
frai Wfore the Legislature all proposed amend
ment. (2) In e of failure here to contest
o?f..re the eor: wk.1i amendments as may be
ma io bv the Legislature.
The league makes the following state
ment of it policy :
hrrea. The Anti-Saloon League throughout
its history ha Wn a federation of moral
'..roe upon a strictly non-parti.an basis; and,
' Whereas. Our State Constitution provides
;..at the league pledges Itself "to avoid affilia
tion with any political party as such;" there-
'Resolved. That It be th&.sense of this board
of trust:
First That the success of the local-option
mtment depends upon its being maintained
u,on a dlrUncttveiy non-pefftisan platform, un
d r mn-lartlfn leadership and separate from
&;i party afnllatlon.
-cond That while the league cannot enter
,nti an alUaaee with any political party as
jh. vet It will welcome to Its councils and
to its fleld of action men from all parties who
are willing to co-operate in harmony with its
T Inoiple.
Third That a standing committee of nve o
. ..nbUtuted to confer with similar committees
fiom any political or temperance organization,
Tiith power to act.
Fourth That the league renew its former ac
t n agatoft petitions being filed for local-o.-tlou
elections where there is not a strong
public wentlmen to Justify it; and we shall
faor elections by prertnets. especially In Port
land and whenever local public sentiment does
not demand a broader application 01 tac
AT THE THEATERS
What the Press Agents Say.
"PRINCESS CHIC" TONIGHT.
Beautiful Operatic Musical Success at
the Marquam Grand Theater.
Tonight at S:15 o'clock the beautiful op
eratic musical success, "The Princess
Chic." will begin an engagement of three
nights with a special matinee Saturday
at the Marquam Grand Theater. The
management has provided a large and
efficient chorus, consisting of a bevy of
pretty girls, who look well in tne cnarm
ing costumes they wear and who can also
sing.
The beautiful and talented Sophia
Brandt will be seen as "The Princess
Chic.' The four clever comedians, Hen
derson. Callahan. Thomas and Martin,'
with "Tlie Princess Chic" Company, all
materially to the success of the produc
tion, and there Is a general outburst of
enthusiasm whenever they appear. They
bring out In the most laughable fashion
the fun which Klrke La Shelle has writ
ten In his libretto. Seats are now selling
lor the entire engagement.
AUDIENCES ARE DELIGHTED.
Intense Interest Manifested in Great
Emotional Drama at Columbia.
The best proof of all that "Camille" Is
a drawing card at the Columbia is found
In the close attention paid by the large
audiences which nightly watch and weep
at the sad but iasclnatlng story of a
blighted career.
This intensity of interest is due to sev
eral causes. The compelling interest of
the life story unfolded, the perfectly con
sistent stage settings and costuming, but
most of all to the sincerity with which
the players interpret the characters they
portray.
There is no overdoing, no ranting, "no
false notes. Bach one lives and breathes
his part in the existence of the loving.
Buffering, sorrowing, doomed Camille, so
faithfully rendered by Miss Countiss, the
dominating spirit of the play.
There is a sermon in It that has for Its
text. "The wages of sin are death."
Special Christmas Matinee Monday.
At the Columbia will be given a spe
cial Christmas matinee on Monday, De
cember 26. of "The Charity Ball." which
Is perhaps the most beautiful and appro
priate play ever written for the holiday
season. "The . Charity Ball" opens
at the Columbia Sunday matinee and will
continues all next week. Seats are now
rn sale.
Sale for Maxine Elliott.
Tomorrow (Friday) morning at 10 o'clock
the advance sale of seats will open for
tlie Marquam Grand Theater's Christmas
attraction. Maxine Elliott, in "Her Own
Way," Monday, Tuesday, "Wednesday
nights. December 20, 27, 28. The combina
tion of Mies Elliott as a star and a new
Clyde Fitch play which has been voted
the best that prolific author ever wrote.
is a strong attraction. Miss Elliott, as a
star ta the head of her own company, has
scored the most pronounced success In
years. There are many Fitch epigrams and
satires throughout the play, and society
life is held up In a whimsical fashion.
Charles B. Dillingham has surrounded his
star with a strong supporting company.
Christmas Offering at Empire Theater
Whatever may be the fault of 99 out of
every 100 dialect plays, none of them
are apparent In "Yon Yonson,"' which is
to be seen in this city at the Empire
Theator four nights, starting next Sun
day matinee. There- will be a special
matinee Monday. Manager P. J.
Kennedy has imported a new "Yon" for
this season in David Brattstrom, who is
conceded by all who have seen him to
"be the greatest of all dialect comedians
row before the public
Christmas Gifts From Miss Countiss.
Miss Countiss. the charming leadln
woman of the Columbia stock company.
will give away Christmas presents to all
the Juvenile attendants at tho matinee
Saturday of this week. All those who
come to see the beautiful play "Camille"
that day will be twice delighted first
with "Camille" and second with a pretty
Christmas gift from the hands of their
favorite actress.

and Saturday matinee, beginning Decem
ber 29. is highly spoken of by the press
throughout the country. The stage set
ting Is said to be magnificent, the story
absorbing and pathetic and the comedy
plentlful and varied.
"A Night in Japan."
Go to the Marquam Grand on the night
of December 29 and see jl 15-year-old
Japanese boy handle with skill and ease
a man twice his weight and age. Gen
eral Buenmon Nil and his Jlu-JItsu art
ists will give an exhibition, the like of,
which has never been seen on any stage,
or In any country outside of Japan. Gen
eral Nil has a thorough knowledge of
anatomy. He knows the vulnerable points
of the human body, and any one of his
15 artlsLs can take the best trained ath
lete In the city and by a slight twist of
the wrist or pressure cause him Intense
pain and render him momentarily help
less. Concert for December 29.
None but musical people know how dif
ficult It Is to start a male chorus of se
lected voices of good quality. There is
such a scarcity of good tenors and con
ductors. But In the case of the Orpheus
Male Chorus of this city the problem
has been solved by Its conductor, Arthur
L. Alexander, who will present his chorus
to the public for the first time at the
White Temple, Twelfth and Taylor streets,
nimhiir 29 Wanders "Lanro" Will be
one of the numbers sung by this male
chorus.
AT THE VAUDEVILLE THEATERS
The Star's Big Acts.
Harcourt. the famous London sou-
brette and the greatest female mimic in
the world, the Mexican Quintet, and Zat,
Zams and Mowra, knife throwers, are the
three big acts at the Star this week.
They are the foremost performers In
vaudeville, and are attracting crowded
houses to this enterprising theater.
Public Favors the Grand.
The public shows favor to the Grand
Theater, where always polite vaudeville
reigns supreme. Eldrldge, the wonderful
sand cartoonist, yesterday portrayed the
burning of the General Slocum, which was
so fatal to human life, last Summer In
New York harbor. This and nine other
great numbers explains the popularity of
the current programme.
The Arcade's Bright Bill.
Th Arcade's bill Is nleaslnsr record-
breaking audiences this week. With such
stellar attractions as Fern Hart, baby
tranpze nerformer. Irene Franklin, the
only great woman cornetlst, and KItchle
and Richards, the American Japs, tne
fact that tne Arcaae is in tne ieaa is
easily understood.
Bijou's Big Entertainment.
Verily, the Bijou bill this weok is hard
to beat. Westin, the man of many faces,
makes five-second changes, and steps forth
In a new character each time. Sousa shifts
to Dreyfus, and Napoleon to George Wash
ington. Go to the Baker.
If you are looking for amusement, the
kind that really amuses, don't forget that
the Baker Is giving Its patrons the great
est bill of Its history. Mile. Vita, the
recognized queen of the slackwlre. Is
amazing the big audiences with her mar
velous performances. Will Brown is one
of the cleverest comedians seen here this
year and the Three Malvcrns are world
champion tumblers.
Lyric Ready for Christmas.
The ever-5opular Lyric is preparing its
patrons to properly appreciate Christmas
by presenting the best vaudeville bill of
the season. The Sisters Kelsey, the most
popular soubrettes on the vaudeville stage,
are proving a veritable magnet, drawing
immense audiences at each performance.
INSPECTION IS COMPLETED.
Condition of Morrison-Street Bridge
Will Be Reported Today.
Inspection of the Morrison-street
bridge will probably bo finished today by
Charles S. Blhler, the engineer who was
engaged by the special Investigating com
mittee of the City Council, and a com
mittee of the Taxpayers' League. The
report will be made to C. E. Rumelln,
chairman of the Council committee. What
it will contain Mr. Blhler has not re
vealed. "
When seen last night ho declined to
discuss the contents of the report so far
as he had prepared It, or to tell what
would be his opinion of the whole struc
ture. His. hands were stained from climb
ing over the iron and steel framework of
the bridge, showing that he had been at
work. Yesterday he spent on the draw
span. He will not attempt to Inspect the
submerged parts of the bridge.
It Is the general opinion that the bridge
will be found up to spcclficatl6ns, and
the chief Interest centers In whether or
not the city has been charged an exorbi
tant price for extras, the total cost of
which is to be $55,000.
