mous French physicians at both pri
vate and military hospitals.
Dr. Morrow was recalled from serv
ice in Belgium at the expiration of his
year's work by the United States Gov
ernment and has been detailed for
border duty. In the event of an out
break with Mexico he will serve his
own country in the same position that
he occupied in Belgium. At present he
will take a much-needed rest at the
home of his father. Dr. J. W. Morrow,
a furlough of 60 days having been
granted him on his arrival in Wash
ington. War Seen at Close Range.
"My assignment to the Mexican bor
der." said Dr. Morrow, "is only pro
visional. I certainly hope that I am
not going to be required, for I have
seen about enough of war. I have had
opportunities to observe the results of
war at close range. During -the last
J 2 months I have had mighty little
rest, and I need that more than any
thing else just now."
As chief surgeon with the American
Tied Cross in Belgium, Dr. Morrow
was stationed at LaPanne. only three
miles back of the Belgian trenches.
Here he was in charge of the principal
Belgian military hospital, where he had
as co-worker Dr. Anton DePage,
surgeon to the King and Queen of
Belgium.
"Our hospital was not a base hos
pital, said Dr. Morrow, "for the
Belgian territory was too narrow for
a base hospital. We received the
wounded men as they were brought
directly from the trenches. We were so
close that they could be brought
In within two hours sometimes in 40
minutes. The Belgians occupy a strip
aoout -w miles long, and only abowk
ien miles wide, so you can see that
our hospital had to serve all of the
wounded.
Amrrinn Work Wonderful.
"The American Red Cross has done
woiyierful work in Europe. Before the
v ar Lriey nan areea to suppjy two or
three units of Red Cross workers and
JiOO.000 worth of equipment. Their
work Is now finished, and further ac

dtrriculty about the forwarding of hos
pital supplies. We had the finest
surgical equipment that money could
buy. There were 60 American nurses
In my charge at LaPanne, and all had
taken at least two years' training. We
v-ere all hard worked, for there wa3
no play about the whole affair. But
the American Red Cross has done won
derful service in Europe, and did not
fall down on its agreement in any
particular."
Dr. Morrow declined to talk of his
experiences. "Should I try to describe
the stirring scenes which I saw en
acted every day. I never would get
through. As to military operations I
can say nothing. My oficlal position
binds me to secrecy about the numbers
of prisoners I saw, and the number of

MR. DOG'S STORY.
MR. DOG cleared his throat and then
he said: "I have always had the
reputation of being a good hunter, but
this story which I am about to tell will
show that I had the hardest time a
Jog ever had getting a coon.
"One moonlight night the master
came out of the house and whistled to
me; he had his gun over his shoulder,
and I knew pretty well what was going
to happen; we were going coon hunt
ing.
"So I wagged my tail and gave two
or three sharp barks, because I knew
I could not bark again until I had
somcUiing to bark about.
"Oh, it was a beautiful night, and
just as we got out in the road a little
way from the barn I saw something
moving. I wasn't sure at first whether
it was a fox or a coon, both of them
being equally fond of visiting the poul
try yard: but I kept very still and
pretty soon I saw him right in the full
moonlight. It was as fat a coon as I
ever saw, and he didn't see me, and 1
made a run for him.
. Well, you may have seen a coon
run. my friends, but, believe me when
I tell you that you never saw one run
as this one did. He gave a bound and
away he went, and I went after hin
and Mr. Man followed, 'for I was bark
lng now, for there was reason for It.
"Well, that coon got to the tree first.
and up he went, for I saw him, and I
can tell you I was some tickled, for I
knew that the master would be pleased
enough when he saw the size of that
coon.
"After he got into the tree I stood
under it and looked up and barked with
all my might, and Mr. Man was coming
a-running as fast as he could in the
distanpe.
But while 1 saw that coon go up
the tree as rapidly as I ever saw any
thing, I couldn't see hide or hair of
him when I looked up.
Mr. Man came up to me after a
while and said, 'Where Is he. Rover T
"I kept looking up In the tree and
barking to keep up my courage, though
i could see nothing but tree.
" 'You are fooled, old fellow,' said the
master: 'he got away from you; go
alter mm, oia Doy.
"But I knew I wasn't fooled, though
for the life of me I could not Bee that
coon.
"I kept on barking and jumping
about and tha master took another

look, but he did not see that coon, and
pretty soon he got tired.
" 'You are a fake, Rover,' he said to
me; 'I am going home; we will try it
another night and see if you can see
straight.' And off he went.
"But I didn't leave the tree. I knew
that coon couldn't have jumped out of,
the tree, and 1 also knew he went up'
the tree, so I was sure he was in the
tree right then.
I barked louder than ever, and
though the master whistled and called,
I still barked and jumped about.
"Suddenly I thought if I kept very
still a minute that coon might show his
head, so I stepped close to the tree and
stood In the shadow and kept quiet. It
wasn't more than a minute before,
just as I thought, out poked the head
of that coon to see if I had gone.
' Well, I just barked some then, and 1
danced, and pretty soon master came
running back and I jumped and barked
right under the place where I had seen
the head of Mr. Coon.
" 'Ah, you are right, my boy.' I heard
the master say softly, and then bang
went his gun and Mr. Coon dropped
to the ground.
'Good, old boy, you can't be fooled.
can you. Rover?' said master, patting
me on the head. You can t be beat for
coon hunting. Come along home and
show what we got.'
The next night they had a great
time at the master's house. He told
them all how I treed that coon -and
how I stuck to It in spite of his going
away and calling to me to go along.
I was patted on the head and made a
great deal of, and every time I see the
master with that coon cap he wears I
feel very happy."
Mr. Dog stopped and looked sad
again, and Mr. Tom Cat' said: "Oh.
cheer up, Mr. Dog; the master will soon
be wearing that cap again, and he will
remember how you caught the cotm.
That Is a good story to tell. Now we
will listen to what Mr. Rooster has to
tell us."
Mr. Rooster said he would tell them
about the new rooster that came to
the barnyard one day, and tomorrow I
ill tell you the story.

BEER PETITION FILED
Signatures on "Equal Rights'
Initative Measure 42,000.
ARGUMENT IS SUBMITTED
Economic View Presented and Man
ufacture of Light Beverage De
clared Apt to Reduce Quantity
of Whisky Imported.
The "Equal Rights to Oregon Indus
try" committee, which has obtained
more than 42,000 signatures to Its ini
tiative measure, known as the "home
industry" bill, to permit the manufac
ture of beer in Oregon under the re
strictions and regulations as to Its sale
now In force, yesterday filed with the
Secretary of State at Salem the formal
argument with which it will go before
the people at the general election next
November.
On the committee are C. E. S. Wood,
chairman; Ben Selling, A. L. Mills. W. S.
ITRen. Mrs. Josephine Hirsch. Dr. K.
A. J. Mackenzie, Eugene Smith, S. Ben
son, Joseph Simon. William Mackenzie.
Frank N. Watkins and many other well
known men and women.
The text of the formal argument fol
lows: Without enterlns; Into a discussion of the
prohibition Question Itself, but mostly from
an economic viewpoint, and believing- that
even from a prohibition point of view, there
is lack of logic In our present constitutional
amendment in allowing; beer to be brought
Into the state from outside states, yet forbidding-
the manufacture of this beer within
the state: further bellevlns the present
prohibition law la unfair In Its discrimina
tion against home Industry and against the
Oregon farmers, hopraiaers and brewers, and
being convinced that the Oregon voters.
both male and female, Deneve in tair piay
and In the promotion and protection of home
Industry the abova amendment Is pre
sented to the public and la proposed by the
undersigned committee.
Economic View Urged.
If you feel that the Oregon farmer who
raises hops and barley, and the Oregon
brewer who baa large Investments In plants,
etc.. shall have the same prlvileafes that are
allowed out-of-the-state farmers and brew
ers, and if you think that it la an economic
waste to have a payroll of many thousands
of dollars sent out of the State of Oregon
almost dally for articles which could be
produced from Oregon products in the btate
or Oregon, thereby giving employment to
many men, keeping a large payroll in tne
atate, and providing a favorable market for
the hops and barley crops of our farmers,
then we ask you to vote for this proposed
A men foment .
A law which permits the consumption of
strong liquor brought Into the state irom
the outside, yet discriminates against even
a light beer made in Oregon from Oregon
barley and hops. Is neither logical nor just,
and seems to ansaer no good purpose what
ever. It Is not even good temperance re
form. because U Inevitably encouragea the
Importation of atrong, spirituous liquors
upon which transportation charges are low
and discourages the use of a light malt
liquor, the transportation charge being high
on account of its bulk.
Temperance Plea Voiced.
In other words. It favors a consumption
of whiskv and other high alcoholics, instead
of the consumption of lighter beverages. It
drives thousands of dollars out of the atate.
which If the use of light beer Is to be per
mitted at all, bad better go to the Oregon
barley and hop farmers. The true measure
of regulation ought always to be based upon
the amount of the drug alcohol contained In
any beverage. It seems not scientific nor In
the cause of true temperance to place light
beer In exactly the same category with
whisky and other strong spirits, and there
la no doubt that the real evila formerly
complained of are some of the so-called
"American aaloons" and strong .liquors, but
we want to Impress everybody, especially
the women wotera of this state, who are
quite aa Intelligent and fair-minded aa the
men voters, with the fact that this amend
ment does not mean the reopening of the
saloon, nor the opening of the general ques
tion or general policy, false statements and
unfair Insinuations of paid agitators not
withstanding. It leaves the present prohi
bition law practically untouched. It goes no
further than to place the home manufac
ture of beer on the same footing with the
outsiders.
By this amendment, the amount of alco
hol permitted is not )n excess of 4 per cent.
This amount Is practically as low as beer
can be brewed and kept, and it Is generally
conceded thst such a beverage Is not a so
called "intoxicating liquor." Based upon
the experiences of the great temperance re
forme made In Denmark, Sweden and Nor
way, and in use .by Germany, the brewing
of Juat such a light beer as here proposed is
encouraged hy the government, and It is
thought that this amendsnent will really
prpmote both temperance and moral In
tegrity. Importations Are Cited.
Do you know that the County of Multno
mah alone, during the six months from
January 1 to June 30. 1P1. Imported 41.62R
ablpments of liquor, and that the affidavits
on file In the County Clerk's office show
thst 43. K33 persons. In addition, purchased
raw alcohol from drug atorea? With this
condition in only one county of the state It
Is easy to imagine what the complete fig
ures would be if gathered.
Uo you know that Dr. Menas R. Oregory.
director of the psychopathic ward of Belle
vue Hospital. New York, save n an Inter
view In the New Tork Tribune, that "The
American people spend i-00.ooo.000 annu
ally oa patent medicines' most of whlrh
contain more or leas alcohol? It la esti
mated by the United States Internal Rev
enue Department that there are manufac
tured In this country between 300 and 4i0
of these so-called "tonics." "stomach bit
ters" and "nervines." Many of these have
big sales In prohibition states and local op
tion districts. The Tribune says that ac
cording to labels In the poasession of the
Department of Agriculture at Washington,
these patent medictnea contain all the way
from 16 per cent to 65 per cent alcohol.
For Instance, Peruna contains 18 per cent
alcohol; I.yrila Ptnkham's Vegetable Com
pound contains 19.85 per cent alcohol: Wine
of Cardul contains L'O per cent alcohol;
Hankln'a Remedy contalna 22 per cent alco
hol: Hall's Great Discovery contains 43 per
cent alcohol, and Hamlin's Wlxard OH con
tains 65 per cent alcohol.
Do you know that In practically every
so-called prohibition state in the Union "he
use of patent medicines containing alcohol
Is very high, and steadily Increasing? And
how much would the present appalling con
sumption of raw alcohol, bought ostensibly
for external use. be Increased, and boot
legging be made still more profitable than
It is now. if the legitimate Importation or
the home manufacture of a light beer were
entirely prohibited? Conscientious physicians
of the highest standing are prescribing beer
for nursing mothers and for building up
tissues In weak bodies. Is it therefore log
ical to pretend or to imagine that a light
beer could be harmful to anyone. If It la
prescribed for Invalids and convaleacenta?
Number of Signatures Urged.
This proposed amendment which you will
either paaa or defeat by your vote la not
a hastlly-gotten-together affair, but it Is a
carefully atudled and matured plan of men
and women of affaire and men and women
of every walk in life who are aincere In
their desire to bring about condrtions In this
state which will attain real reform and tem
perance and moderation, featuree which are
impossible to obtain In any other way. The
further fact that the petition was aigned b,
over 42.000 voters, men and women from all
ever the state, the circulation of the same
having been done by voluntary work, indi
cates the overwhelming sentiment In favor
of this proposed measure. It la larger by
7000 than any petition ever presented to the
Secretary of State, and therefore a' splendid
Indorsement of the work of the high-minded
men and women of the committee who are
deeply Interested and concerned In thla con
structive work toward the moral aa well as
financial improvement of the atate. It Is
proposed, not by any one connected with
any liquor Industry whatsoever, but is
vouched for by high-minded, responsible
business men, whose names are known to
many of the votera throughout the state.
and In order to fortify your opinion aa to
the standing In the community of- the men
and women who ask you to vote for this
law. and In order to aatlsry yourself that It
la not a movement to re-establish saloons.
we ask you to carefully read the namea of
the undersigned committee, who will not
stand for any trifling with the expressed
will of tha people.
This argument Is submitted on behalf ot
the general committee whose namea are

forts that the home folks in Portland
and elsewhere In Oregon can supply.
Writing to The Oregonian from San
Diego, Major W. S. Gilbert, chaplain
of the regiment, has addressed the fol
lowing appeal for assistance:
"To the people of Oregon There hav
ing been no response whatever to my
former appeal, I desire to emphasize
the need of magazines among the rocn.
"We will be camped permanently at
Palm City, about 15 miles south of San
Diego, but anything addressed to the
Third Oregon. San Diego, will reach us.
All our .regiment, except Company II,
which Is' stationed at the reservoir east
of us, will be located together.
"If the people at home want letter
writing to be encouraged among the
men. a box of stationery will be nec
essary. Baseballs and bats would be J
a srreat heln. '
"And it would save us from the
temptations of booze if we could have
from home shipments of loganberry
juice. We can get Ice and I would
see that there is careful use made of
anything placed in my care.
"A little encouragement from home
will help the men under these trying
conditions. Thus far there have been
only two cases of drunkenness, so far
as known, in the whole regiment.
"The men are In fine health and are
making good."
