FIGHT TO

Prohibitionists Confident They
Can Win Throughout the
County in June.
ISSUE IN MARION, TOO
Clackamas and Columbia Counties
Are Also Wrestling With Liqtsor
JProplem 'Dry" Area Likely
to Spread This Tear.
ROSEBUKG. Or.t May 16. (Special.)
t the coming June election it is general
ly conceded by the liquor men that
Douglas County will go dry by a large
majority. The question will be voted on
by the county as a whole and separately
by the precinrts of Scottsburg, Canyon
villc. and Myrtle Creek, the three named
precincts being dry at the present time.
The county also, as a whole is about two
thirds dry. The dry element claim it
will carry eveny precinct in the county
except Glendale, Gardiner and West Roee
burg. In 1004 the loral-optlon amendment car
ried in Douslos County by a majority of
1717. In 1)6 the amendment to the local
option law was defeated in this county
and local option was voted on by pre
cincts with the result that two-thirds of
them went dry.
The Prohibition people are making a
very hard tight in Douglas County this
year. They have secured speakers from
abroad and at home and an; in every way
working to carry the county dry. Among
the speakers, are Rev. S. A. Douglas, of
Albany; Judge V. S. McFadden, of Cor
vallis; Hon. J. M. Glass, of California;
Mayor J. D. Matlock, of Eugsne, and
Hon. B. Z. Eddy, of Roseburg-.
The "wets" have not made a very de
termined campaign against the dry ele
ment, their side of the question being set
forth mostly from literature supplied by
tho wholesale liquor interests.
1EXTEK FIGHT OX MILWAtRIE
Prohibitionists Hope This Year to
Make Precinct "Dry."
OREGON CITY." Or.. May 16. (Spe
cial.) Two propositions started by the
local option forces are to be voted upon
In Clackamas County this year. One
of these is to vote prohibition in the
county as a whole, and the other is to
abolish the sale of liquor in the dis
trirt comprising the precincts of Mil
waukie. Harmony) - Oak Grove and
Clackamas. There are no saloons in
the last three precincts, but the sale
of liquor has not been restricted in
Milwaukle, where the prevailing senti
ment is apparently wet. but the Pro
hibition people hope to vote Milwaukie
dry by combining it with Clackamas,
Harmony and Oak Grove, the latter
precinct being the home of B. L.ee Pa
get, chairman of the local option cam
paign committee of this county. The
incorporated towns of Clackamas
County, aside from Milwaukie, are not
affected, except as the county votes as
& whole.
The only previous attempt made in
thi county to dtlve saloons out of busi
ness was made four years ago, when
the vote was taken in the county as a
whole, and in this election the saloons
were victorious hy a vote of nearly two
to one. There have been times when
the question of prohibition has been
Introduced in other elections, as in thij
city Inst December, when an attempt
was made to pans an excise law, result
ing in a victory for the saloon ele
ment. The arrest of two Canity saloon
keepers and their two barkeepers for
selling liquoc to minors last Fall, was
followed by the abolishment of the sa
loons in that town through the elec
tion of a Mayor anil Council opposed
to licensed saloons. Tho history of re
peated attempts made in Clackamas
County by the Prohibition element has
resulted mainly in saloon victories.
WILL THY AGAIN" IN' POLK
"Drys" Hedouble F 'forts to Free
County of Saloons.
DALLAS. Or., May Ifi. (Special.) In
the coming election Polk County will
vote on the question of prohibition
throughout the entire county for the
pecond time. The county was voted
wet by a lrge majority two years ago,
the heaviest votes against prohibition
being east in Dallas, Falls City and In
dependence. It is believed that the
contest will be closer in the coming
election, however.
The most Important of the "dry
districts lie in the northern portion of
the county, in Douglas prerinet and in
the p reel nets Immediately adjoining.
Voters in Douglas precinct claim that
they are obliged to vote for prohibi
tion, so as to muzzle effectually the
gallon houses in that district, which
are responsible for much disorder and
frequent crime among the Indians of
the Grand Ronde Reservation, which
lies in th c neighborhood. An unsuc
cessful effort was made to arrange for
two separate ballots in that precinct,
one for the county as a whole, and one
for Douglas precinct alone. Since this
plan failed, it is believed that the vot
ers in chat precinct wilt vote for pro
hibition for the whole county, so that
they may insure it in their own neigh
borhood. In the Incorporated towns
the vote is doubtful, but the sentiment
seems to incline against prohibition.

An Injunction has been filed by the
saloon interests to prevent submission
of the question in the last mentioned
district and to compel submission of the
question in a district composed of Stay

Stayton Is expected to go "dry." so the
saloon interests Joined It with Sublimity,
which is sure to go "wet." the purpose
being to keep Stayton "wet." For- the
purpose of carrying the entire sotith end
of the county dry, the anti-saloon peo
pie Joined Jefferson. Marion, Turner,
Aumsvllle and iladeay with Stayton and
Sublimity. Incorporated towns of the

of Jefferson, Turner. Sublimity. Stayton
and Silverton. There are seven pre

Stayton has always been a "wet" town
and voted "wet" by a small majority two
years ago. Jefferson and Silverton have
varied between wet and dry. The prohi
bition question has never been presented
before the voters of Salem.
There is great interest in the fight that
Is being made, the chief contest being

Third One Under New Law.
ALBANY. Or., May, 16. (Special.) The
question of prohibition will be voted upon
In Linn County this year for the third
time. The county Is now "dry" under
the provisions of the local option liquor
law and the vote this year is to be taken
upon the petition of opponents or pro
hibition.
The question was first submitted Tinder
the terms of the local option law at
the Presidential election in 1004. being
voted on by the county as a whole. The
county remained "wet" by t'2 majority.
the vote being 2025 for prohibition and
309S against prohibition. While the county
as a whole remained in the "wet" column
the following 13 precincts returned a
dry" majority: South Brownsville, Craw
fordsville. Halsey, Lacomb, South Leba
non. Orleans, Price, Rock Creek, Santiam,
Shedd, Sodaville, Sweet Home and
Tangent. The only saloons affected by
this vote were those in Lebanon. AH
three of the saloons in that city were in
South Lebanon precinct and all were
closed January 1, 1905.

building, when completed, will represent a cost of about $20,000, and

Lebanon Precinct separately upon petition
of opponents of prohibition. In that elec
tion the entire county went dry by a
majority of 442 votes, the result being
2285 for prohibition and 1M3 against, while
South Lebanon precinct again voted in
favor of prohibition by a vote of 134 to 113.
In response to the decree of the voters,
the entire county became dry on July 1,
1906. It closed 12 saloons in Albany and
one in Harrisburg. The saloons in Leba
non had been closed by the former vote
and the other towns of the county had
closed their saloons at different times
formerly by the authority of their wnpK,.ncral opin)on among the delegates now
city governments.
Kainier Hopes to Go "Wet."
ST. HELENS. Or.. May 16. (Special.)
The people of Columbia .County will vote
in Juno upon the question of county pro
hibition, a petition to that effect having
been Hied. Union Precinct, comprising
the towns of St. Helens and Houlton, was
voted dry in June two years ago, and now
the advocates of saloons have filed their
petition for another vote. The amount
of liquor sold here has been greatly de
creased, though the law has been fre
quently violated by liquor being brought
into the precinct and given away. The
incorporated towns have been deprived
of considerable revenue. There is a
strong prohibition sentiment in the coun
ty, and were it not for the question of
revenue In the incorporated clowns mere
is no doubt prohibition would carry the
county. Violations of the law. by saloons
n Scappooso have undoubtedly created a
strong sentiment there in favor of pro
hibition, while the saloon element at
Rainier has done its best to induce its
members to conduct orderly and legal
places, and1 thereby has appeased public
sentiment in that community.
Litigation in Marion County.
SALEM, Or., May 16. (Special.) M. J.

suit today to enjoin County Clerk Allen
from submitting the saloon question In a
district composed of the precincts of Jef

plaint also asks that the clerk be required
to submit the saloon question in a dis
trict composed of the precincts of Stayton
and Sublimity. The petition for the latter
district was filed first, but County Judge
Scott decided that the question should be
submitted only in the larger district.
Judge Galloway will hear the case Tues

Thero will be no postponement of Chester

to agree to a continuance of the case for
several days, but Mr. Thompson declined
to do so. Both sides have already noti

Chester still declines to talk about his
case. That he will take the witness-stand
in his own behalf is certain. The boy was

only smiled and said "I expect that."

0FFST TO LOCAL OPTION
Republicans Make Capital by Taking

Turner Likely to Be Permanent
Chairman of Convention.
SPOKANE. "Wash., May 16. (Special.)
In an effort to offset the political capital
made by' the Republicans In declaring in
their state convention last Thursday for
the enactment of a state local option
law, the delegates now assembling for
the Democratic State Convention next
Monday are discussing the advisability of
declaring for the amendment of the state
constitution so as to provide for direct
legislation by the initiative and referen
dum.
Democrats declare that the direct legis
lation principle, being the broader, will
include the narrower issue of local option,
Local option means the option of the
people of a community on the liquor
Question. Direct legislation means the
option of the people of the state on all
legislation.
Some members of the Spokane delega
tion to the Democratic State Convention
favor Inserting in the platform a "per
sonal liberty" plank as a bid for the
snnnort of the linuor interest, but tne
on the ground appears to be that such
a step would be fatal to possible victory
at the Fall election. '
A movement to make ex-United States
Senator Turner temporary and perhaps
permanent chairman as well of the con
vention has taken definite shape and will
probably be carried through.
