PLAN PROHIBITION FIGHT
Mt.tilSTIOXS MADE l'Olt KAST
SIDE CAMPAIGN.
Saloonnirn Propose to I'iglit Pry
Wave by Proposing County
Klevtion.
l'aRtnrs and laymen from practically
vpry church on the Rast Side, from Sell
wood to St. John, were present laat niprht
et the prohibition meeting held in Haw
thorne Tark Presbyterian Church. -Kast
Twelfth and Taylor atreets, and plans for
n active campaign were laid to make .all
Kast Side precincts dry. Rev., B. Nelson
.Allen presided at thl meeting- J. R.
Knodell waa the first speaker, and he de
voted his time to suirsestions.- He said
II younf? people, teachers in the public
vchocts as wett as individuals and busi
ness men, should be enlisted in the cam
paign. Mr. Knodoll alo said that it was de
sired to eet aw names to the petitions
for the power and momentum such a
number would Rive the movement.. Over
30 petitions, he said, were placed in the
churches on Sunday, and many more had
been piven out yesterday. In speaking of
the general plan of campaia-n. Mr. Knodell
aid that billboards will b used .all over
the Bast Plde. and that public mass meet
ings will be held.
Short talks were made By J. C. Adams,
P. T. !ache and F. J. McHenry on dif
ferent phases of the prohibition fight that
toad been entered on. Slips of paper were
circulated in the audience and every one
was asked to write a suggestion as to the
plan to be . followed, halls where meet
ings ' coud be held, names of men and
women who would assist financially and
otherwise. These were gathered up for
ftiturtt reference. ,
Rev. V. I Toung brought the greetings
ofSt. John to the meeting, and advised
the pastors and laymen St, John would be
made dry at the coming June election. It
was suggested that the movement be
made more general, and that men outside
the churches be invited to take part In
the campaign, which was approved. In
order to raise the funds to meet the large
expense of the campaign, it was moved
and earried that the chairman appoint a
standing finance committee with power to
ppoint subcommittees. A long list of
names was suggested from whK.-h to select
this committee, and Chairman Allen took
the matter under advisement, as It was
considered that this is an Important com
mittee and should be selected with great
care. Mr. Knodell announced that the pe
titions would not have to be in until
Wednesday. April 29, which will ive one
more Sunday for work In the churches.
The saloon men on the East 'Side are
taking steps to counteract this movement
to make the whole of the Bast Side dry
by a movement to call a prohibition elec
tion In the entire county. They propose
to do this on the theory that while many
of the Bast Side precincts will probably go
dry, the entire county would not vote
prohibition. It Is understood that peti
tions will be drawn up and circulated for
a prohibition vote In the entire county,
which will be very much like fighting pro
hibition with a prohibition weapon. If
this is carried out. It will mean that the
West Side also will vote on prohibition.

so weak and with such a fearful cough
that my friends .declared consumption

Cards to Friends Through

Postcard souvenirs of the Portland Rose
Festival. WO.OOO in number, were delivered
to Festival headquarters by the printers,
yesterday, and will be ready for distribu
tion this morning. The entire supply of
290.000 mailing inserts for advertising the

have been spoken for by three or four
local business houses.
The postcards are In the official green
and pink colors of . the Festival. They
contain a complete programme of the
principal events of the week. ami. like
the advertising inserts, comprise one of
the most effective boosting circulars that
Portland has ever gotten out.
Although the general public does not
seem to appreciate it. no exploitation
campaign has ever been conducted that
has reached so far and wide as these
inserts have, and the Festival manage
ment has been generally commended by
local business houses, merchants, hotels
and others for having devised the finest
system of advertising the splendid demon
stration that Portland will hold.
Arrangements ere being made whereby
the souvenir postcards can be secured at
every postcard shop, hotel, restaurant,
drugstore, department store, wholesale
house, in public - schools and even on
streetcars, so that every part of the Unit
ed States will be covered with this char
acter of advertising material. New-stands
in depots and hotels throughout the
country will be supplied with these sou
venirs within the next two or three
weeks. In order that they may accom
plish the most good, every man, woman
and child in Portland is urged, by the
Festival to address one and as many
more as possible of these postcards to
friends in the Bast.

Welch Have Set-To on Street.
Acting Police Sergeant Ernest Johnson
and Patrolman Asa Welch, engaged in. a
little Marquis of Queensbury pleasantry
near Fifth and Washington streets, early
yesterday afternoon. The two minions
had been engaging in an interchange of
views on religion, politics, philosophy and
the best kinds of chewing tobacco when
a difference of opinion of bitter propor
tions sprung up. Their oratorical capa
cities proved insufficient to settle the
matter and they went at it hammer and
tongs. The combat was not the most
scientific on record but . it was gory
enough to satisfy the most exacting.
When the demonstration was completed
both preservers of the city's peace and
dignity had suffered a considerable
change of facial proportion and some
little loss of blood.
The fray was stopped by peace-loving
citizens and a bartender. A passing fellow-officer
caught a glimpse of it but he
hastened on, so It is recorded, for fear
of being haled before the Police Com
mittee in event charges should grow out
of the fray.
While the police station was notified of
the incident no forma! report was made
to the Chief, for reasons already hinted
at no doubt. The Chief suspended neither
of the belligerents they were not on
duty at the time of the fray. Neither
was In condition to report for duty with
the second night relief at 31:45 o'clock
last night, telephoning in to be excused
on the account of not feeling fit for duty.

These warm days you -want your meat to be fresh. Meat that is shipped
to the city in ice-cars and then laid in cold-storage for several days, and then
brought up town and exposed to dust and dirt and insects, is unfit for food.
People of refinement pass it up. When yon are looking for Smith's, you will
have to pass up the markets that have been put up alongside of us on both
sides. Neither one of them carries Smith's absolutely fresh Oregon meats.
