Governor Lister Asks Attorney
General to Settle Ques
tion by Opinion.
FAIR TRIAL NOW SOUGHT
Executive Requests That Rule of Ma
jority Be Accepted and That Busi
ness May Have Chance to
"Work TJp With Condition.
OLYMFIA, Wash., Nor.' . (Special.)
Question having been raised as to the
date upon which the prohibition law
.passed at Tuesday's election will take
effect. Governor Lister today requested
Attorney-General Tanner to render an
official opinion on the subject.
The prohibition law Itself provides
that it shall take effect January 1,
1916, giving business a chance to adjust
Itself to the change. The aeotlon of the
consetitution providing for the initia
tive, however, provides that an initia
tive measure "shall be in'operatlon on
and after the 80th day after the elec
tion at which it Is approved," which
would make the law effective Decem
ber 4, 1914. The Governor said, his
own disposition was to accept the date
named in the initiative bill, since this
was the proposal upon which electors
voted.
Governor Lister today issued a pub
lic statement asking citizens to cease
-'agitation of the liquor question and
T i v- nI.nl,lKttln Kill a f.lf trial
statins in Dart:
The effect on the state will be Just
what the people of the state make It.
We believe in the rule of the majorltyt
A majority of the voters of the state
have declared in favor of this measure.
If all now will accept the decision of
the majority, lend a hand in seeing the
law enforced and direct energies to
those things which will build up and
develop the state, rather than predict
ing dire disaster as a result of this
measure becoming a law, we materially
will assist In quickly bringing about
the rearrangement necessary on ac
count of its adoption.
"I believe its opponents will agree
with me when I say that business
would be injured much more by con
stant agitation against the law, now
it has passed, than by accepting it and
directing our energies to proper ae
velopment under the new order of
things."
PROHIBITIOX "WIXS BY 14,0 00

fices of Various Counties.

liam Ahrlng, express messenger on the
Rock Island-Hot Springs train held up
between these two points April 9 and

Ahring said he and. the two men met

ST. JOHNS MAY BE MERGED
Attorney Thinks Defect in Form "Will
Not Obstruct Annexation.
ST. JOHNS. Or., Nov. 6. (Special.)
City Attorney Parker this morning ex
pressed the opinion that while the city
merger constitutional amendment
adopted at the election is faulty, the
court probably will construe it favor
ably. "The amendment should have read,
'a majority of the electors who vote
on the merger question,' " he said, "and
not 'a majority of the electors.' as there
is no way to ascertain the wishes of
the electors except by their votes.
However. I believe the amendment will
be called valid, as the voters have ex
pressed their will in favor of permit
ting merging."
