CRIME SHOWS DECREASE raM-u'l rrrn Klr-t p.a-el rests for other offense decreased. For Instance, vagrancy case dc rreasej from 16. In January. 131S. to 'ZZ last month; lha number wa SIS In Ie.-riiiber. The above figure are um mariied a follows: . . ... j.n 11 Iee 1.1. Jan. 11.

For nearly every crime committed he haa repeatedly heard the single eicus: It bale rtawlaal Order A Ba-rted. "Judge.

"Hut thia 4 per cent showed boo on th face of th record. It didn't lake Into account case of assault and battery, larceny, 'rolling' of drunks, rfi.ordarlv house brawl, forgery, wife- desertion, wlfe-beatlng and score of other offense directly due to liquor. So I hav estimated that from 75 to 19 per cent of all case In police court were cae In which boose figured. A man paed a bad cheek; he said he had been drunk. A man had been fighting: hi excus waa drunkenness. a fee Ceat Cat la Ota Forecaat. "And. what' mora, th 44) per cent did not Include such offenses as speed Inc. letting grass grow In the streets and other ordinance violation tend Ir.g to swell the total. "It's safe to ay that 18 per cent of alt crime Involved liquor, and. now that the boose la gone. 1 expect to e crime fall off to that extent. It' the great controlling factor, and the advent of temperance waa the one bright shining light out of my two year and a half In that sordid mess down there. I predicted that, with the arrival of prohibition, tbe Police Court docket would fall off SO per cent a night, and It did." Th comment of all lh officer of the Police Court station Is similar. -You can ire the result for yourself.- return Chief of Police Clark. -Not half the arrest are made." "The record do not how th hun dred of case of smaller petty offenses- many of which never get into court, thai are directly due to liquor which cam Into tr.y office dally befor thl year." declared Assistant City Attor ney Stadter. who stopped to marvel at the changed order of things In discus sion with Public Prosecutor Robinson. "A few drink nnder a man' belt, and smashed windows, street fight, cutting affrays, thievery and scores of evils follow.

"Last December we had IS case of driving motorcars while lntoxlcatd: this month we'va had none." said Harry I Coffin, chairman of the Publlo Safe ty Commission. "Accident hav been decreased. Reckless driving has been reduced by prohibition from il arrest In December to five arrest In Janu ary, and speeding haa dropped from 41 cases in December to nine thl month." Liquor and the social evil go hand ln hand, declare Mr. Lola u. Mainwin. head of the women protective divis ion of the department of public safety and to prove the assertion she cites the fart that In SI days of January but five women were arrested, wher a year ago thl number of arrest dally was to be expected. Saloon Hulldlaaa Oecnpled. A census of the policemen taken yesterday afternoon) as they returned from their beat from all part of the city showed that, with ' the exception. or the North End ana two or tnree other sections, the bulk of all build ings occupied by saloon hav already been taken by other business. And their statement are borne outby real estate and rental broker. "No, sir," exclaimed Donald Wood ward, a pioneer real estate broker, "prohibition ha shown no 111 effect on rent throughout th city aside from a few vacant place where saloons were. "tiroeerv stores are taking their places: other business la springing up. The majority of th vacant saloon locations have filled up. and In 0 days I expect to ee every empty saloon taker." C. C. Colt, president of the Portland Chamber of Commerce, declares busi ness condition have Improved, if any thing, since the advent of prohibition. and he is positive that the passing of saloons ha thrown, more money Into legitimate business, as he classes clothing, dry goods and groceries, with better collections and better trading conditions, despite the bad weather and .now. The expected vacancies of sa loon location waa discounted largely before the drat of the year. Kratala ot Affected. For Parrlsh Ac Watklns, one of Port land'a oldest realty firms. Mr. Watklns IVC "Prohibition has not affected rental in the heart of the city. 100 per cent of the vacancies left In thl district by the passing of the saloon have been taken over by other business, and at the same rental aa before. "The vacancies are not o well filled outside the center, but, all told, 0 per cent of our rentals hare been filled at the same Drlce.

REPUBLICAN LEAD GREATER With More Than Ordinary Political Intrreht and Registration Being; Permanent, Extraordinary Feb ruary Iluh Is Espected. Snow and cold have had a deterring effect on the registration, the figures for the first month In 1916 being but 7877 compared to 13.913 for the same period In 1911, when the books were last opened. This drop of more than 000 Is shown In figure compiled last night by Carl Massey, head bookkeeper In t'ounty Clerk Coffey's oflice. This drop In registration comes In a year in which there is far more than ordinary interest in political questions, and for this reason, if there is pleasant weather during February, a record breaking registration is looked for. Be ginning tonight the registration books at the Courthouse will be kept open ... - . .. 1 L Inai.nH ftf until O ClOCK evtrj masnv, i.....- closing at 6. to allow those who cannot get away from work Dcioro me ti" hour to register. This is the permanent registration and there will be no need to register again unless for change of residence or failure to exercise the right of fran chise for two consecutive years. The Republican vote leads by a heavier percentage than in 19H. The total Republican vote to date for 1916 is 6106 and the total Democratic 1443, leaving a lead of 4.".3 for the Republi cans. The total Republican vote for the same period in 1914 was 9108. the Democratic 2970. leaving a Republican lead of 6138. The women Republicans are increas ing at a greater rate this year.
