"We don't believe prohibition will carry in Oregon, but if we
can defeat the Home Rule Bill (323) we can stir things up again
in two years." Statement yesterday by Anti-Saloon League
member.
"If we're defeated November 8, we'll be at your throats No
vember 9." Published slogan of the prohis.
Pleasant to contemplate, Mr. Business Man and Mr. Property
Owner, isn't it?
' Keep things stirred up. Keep business in a turmoil. Every
two years turn things upside down. Agitation agitation agita
tion. Business go bump more agitation. Away with develop
ment. Down with prosperity.
That's the policy of the fanatics, and the mistaken supporters
of a wildcat law that they have no faith in themselves.
Resort to Falsehood to Gain End
Hopelessly defeated in their attempt to carry the farcical pro
hibition theory, the prohis are trying to keep the field green for
more agitation and more business upheavals two years hence by
resorting to undisguised falsehood in attacking the Home Rule
Bill (328).
They have but one object the confusion of the voters.
This is the latest from the camp of the prohis: "Home Rule
leaves the dry districts at the mercy of the City Council." One
word only is necessary- The following attorneys, and none in Ore
gon is more competent to write a legal opinion, denounce the fore
going as wholly untrue: Thomas O'Day, ex-Circuit Judge; A. M.
Crawford, Attorney-General of Oregon; D. Solis Cohen; Dan Mor
gan Smith, Former Assistant Corporation Counsel of -Chicago;
and any competent attorney who knows a law book from a herring.
Each lie has been successful nailed. The first, that Home Rule
Bill was the resurrected Reddy Bill, is heard of no more. It died.
The second, that the Home Rule Bill would abrogate all the
criminal laws of the state, looked so foolish after Attorney-General
Crawford and others had passed just the opposite opinion on
it, that it died a-borning. The third, referred to in the foregoing,
has now been quietly laid to rest. What next will be trumped up?
v Don't Be Confused
If YOU want to defeat prohibition and its vicious, un-American
Search and Seizure provision, which leave no home secure
from outrage, put an X after these three numbers, like this:

Richard Boas of Hamburg, headquarters
of the greatest steamship corporation
in the world. Is authority for this state
ment. As a member of the great im
porting house established by his grand
father, which Is represented on the
transportation oompany'a directorate,
he Is qualified to talk.
Boas came here yesterday from San
Francisco with William F. Schmidt,
general agent of the Missouri Pacific,
for an outing at Catallna. and will
leave tn a few daya for Germany.
"With the completion of the Panama
Canal the company will develop a sys
tem on the Pacific, as complete as It
has on the Atlantic," he aald. "It now
has aa Interest in the Koimoi line, but
has no lines of Its own on this ocean,
save to China and Japan via the Sues
Canal, but Its great ships will soon be
everywhere. San Francisco and Los
Angeles will be the main beneficiaries."
AZTEC IS SKIPPER'S PRIDE
Pacific Mail Tramp Under goes
Cleaning and Looks Like Liner.
Members of the crew of ths Pacific
Mail steamer Astec, which sails st day
break today for San Francisco, have
taken ths precaution to advise their
friends as to the probable time of their
arrival, as it Is feared the vessel In
her present natty state may not be rec
ognised. Since leaving the Golden Gate,
when she loaded cargo for the Atlantic
side under charter to Batea Chese
brough. Captain Austin haa diminished
her draft to a small extent through the
removal of about four tons of rust, and
the Astec of today has not the. thorough
aanect of a trams that ah sate whan
plying to the Orient out of Portland
several years ago.
To Captain Austin, fresh from the
palatial Minnesota, the Aztec was
viewed as a "second rater" and on both
voyages around the Horn he has kept
the crew so busy with paint and polish
ing that they say It beat sailing days
when decks were holystoned. Below
deck. Chief Engineer Llndleyhas added
his quota to the rehabilitation pro
gramme, and from stem to stern she
looks like a new ship. The future of
the Aztec is in doubt, though It is not
Improbable she will be operated from
San Francisco to Ancon in opposition
to the Bates ft Chesebrough service. She
has been li the Coast trade from Na
malmo South with coal and is no stran
ger In these waters. About 2000 tons
of cargo from New York and Philadel
phia were discharged here and the re
mainder will be unloaded within the
Golden Gate, when Bates & Chesebrough
will release her.
GERMAN COXSTJIi IS LACKIXG
Seamen From Omega Given Pay
Before American Official.
German sailors coming to Portland
have no official point where they may
gather and give vent to "Hoch tier Kais
er," for that country is without a Consul
at this port. Yesterday four tars were
paid off from the Omega, which arrived
from San Diego in the morning, and in
order to follow the International rule
of liquidating such indebtedness against
the vessel before an official, they were
marched to the Custom-House. where
Deputy Collector of Customs Pike offi
ciated.
There have been but a few German
carriers in port of late, but the more
recent arrivals Include the Omega, Se
lene and Goldbek. all flying that flag, so
there would naturally be a few fees pros
pective If the Kaiser were represented.
The former Consul was reported to have
preferred the mists of Puget Sound to
the balmy ozone of Portland, and took
himself hence. It Is probable some ar
rangement will be made whereby the
affairs of that country will be looked
after.
