THE MORNING ORI5GQNIAX, 3IOTAY, JULY 3, 1016. DRY PETITION STILL LACKS 5000 NAMES Woman's Temperance Union and Prohibition Party Urge Supporters to Action. ONLY THREE DAYS ARE LEFT Interest In Stopping Importation of Liquor Is Lax, While Movement to Permit Breweries to Run Declared to Be Gaining. With three days remaining in which to circulate petitions, the Prohibition ists lack still 6000 names of having sufficient to put on the ballot their proposed measure to prevent shipment of any liquor into the state. This was the announcement made, by E' A. Baker, of the Anti-Saloon League, and J. .Sanger Fox. secretary of the Oregon Prohibition State Committee, at a mass meeting called at the Library yesterday to stir up Interest in a rapid circulation of petitions in Multnomah County to make up the names that are. ctill lacking. - ixty-seven persona attended the . mass meeting, which was called under the joint auspices of the Women's Christian Temperance Union and the Prohibition party. Mr. Fox had 100 blank petitions passed among those present, urging that they take them and pledge to get them filled within the next two days. These petitions filled would represent 2000 of the desired 6000 names. Some Decline to Take Petition. About 40 petitions out of the 100 ' -were taken, but a large number of those in the audience declined to take them. Several men pledged themselves, however, to visit the car barns this morning with petitions and to endeavor to secure as many signatures as pos : eible from the street railway employes. Mr. Fox said that the 6000 deficit - represented the count on petitions up " to Saturday night, and expressed the opinion that enough names to put the measure on the ballot may yet be re " ceived from other cities in the state outside of Portland- Multnomah County has furnished only 3500 of the names out of the 17,000 that have been secured, accord ing to Mr. Fox. -- "The brewers .have at this moment .more than "30,000 signatures on their ' petition which would permit the manu facture and sale in original packages of 1 per cent beers, within the state of Oregon." said Mr. Baker, "while the Prohibitionists are 5000 names short, in -round numbers. "It means that you people have gone to 6leep. We have yet July 3, 4 and 5 In which to get those signatures, and . it la up to us to wake up and get - them if we expect to get onto the . ballot." Brewers' Bill (Sains Support. "There is a good prospect of' the brewers' measure carrying," said J. C. Newell, chairman of the Prohibition T party. "It is surprising how many jrood men of the state, men of the best J character, are supporting it. I verily believe that if it were put to a vote ' today, without ' further argument, It - would pass. It is up to us to get the people of Oregon awakened and flght- . ing if we ijope to offset it." Other speakers were G. N. Taylor and Mrs. Jennie Kemp, state president of T the Women's Christian Temperance - Union. Mrs. M. L. T. Hidden presided ;- over the meeting. The proposed prohibition amendment preventing the importation of any In toxicating liquor into the state is brought forward by the Prohibitionists - and they are endeavoring to put it on the ballot to offset the other amend ment that is being put out to make it possible to manufacture light beers within the state. ' "If the brewers had kept still,"' de- clared Mrs. Kemp yesterday, "we might have been willing to let them have ; their Imported liquor under the legal - restrictions for a while not that we wouldn't have taken it all away from them as soon as we were able. "But now that they have started this fight we want to make it impossible to pet any liquor of any kind into the tate, and to make it genuinely a pro hibition state at once." ; FERRY RATE CUT IS ASKED ; AYliite Salmon Seeks to Stop Jlold I'p of Tourists. "WHITE SALMON, Wash.. July 2. (Special.) A reduction in ferrv rates between White Salmon and Hood River is to be requested of the Commission ers of Klickitat and Hood River coun ties.

PATRIOTISM IS EXULTED NORWEGIAN LUTHERAN PASTOR ON NATIONAL DESTINY. Rev. W. Petterson Says America, Wltb Wonderful Opportunities. Ia Called To Work Out God'a Purpose. A patriotism which would lead men to sacrifice their own selfish interests for the good of the whole Nation, was held up as an ieai by Rev. W(lhelm Petterson, pastor of the United Nor wegian Lutheran Church, Fourteenth and Davis streets, in his sermon de livered yesterday morning. "Such a patriotism," declared Rev. Mr. Petterson, "Is in that respect re- lgious. But true patrotism is more than that.. It. is also watchful of . dangers, and it meets, those dangers rather than lei. imngs arm. Rev. Mr. Petterson emphasized the responsibility of the individual in the working out of the destiny of this Nation, showing that each one has a part. "Here in this country," he said, "God has not given us such wonderful op portunities and vast resources in order that we might sink lower, but rather that we should mount higher. We have practically everything that man could want. The question is are we working out a better human destiny here? If not, God's purpose has failed." Rev. Mr. Petterson emphasized the need of the racial and national barriers separating peoples in other countries being lost, here in one great cosmo politan people. "We, as people of foreign birth," he said, "can bring to our new country the best we have, the best instincts and customs of our race, and thereby aid in the working out of the great and noble destiny of this country."

Location of New School Building Replace One Burned Down la Point at Issue. to BAN DON, Or.. July 2. (Special. f Differences between two factions m the Two-MUe school district, south of this city, growing out of the question of the location ef a new schoolhouse to re place the one destroyed by fire last aii. have created a situation which threatens to involve not only the dis trict, but also county school officials, in legal proceedings. Latest developments in the tangle are the destruction, of the school dis trict records and the dismissal of George Cox, one member of the School Board by County Superintendent Ray mond E. Baker. The records were de stroyed in a fire which consumed the office of Arthur Covell, former district clerk, on the night of June 27 and which Mr. Covell declares was -of . in cendiary origin. Soon after the old schoolhouse burned down the voters in the Two-Mile dis trict beid a meeting to consider the question of rebuilding. At the meeting it developed that there were two fac Hons, one favoring the site of the old schoolhouse as the location for the new one, and the other faction favoring a site on the new township line road, which is being constructed between Bandon and the Curry County line. Ex ponents of the old site, however, were in the majority, and It was voted to build over the ashes of the old build ing. Before actual construction of the new schoolhouse had commenced the oppo nents of the old site secured an In junction restraining the Board from going further, on the grounds that the meeting had not been conducted ac cording to the provisions of the school laws.
