"This is the slowest and most

tho damage may bo considerable."
Tho weather in this vicinity has
been peculiar this season, many of
tho older residents being puzzled by
It. Only a few weeks ago, there
woro a couple of unusually warm
days the thermometer going higher
than it usually gets at the warmest

lowed by cool, rainy weather, tho ex

Mayor Matlock Proclaims the
Gospel of Dryness at Ore
gon City.
(Special Dispatch to Tho Journal)
OREGON CITY, May 1C Mayor
Matlock of Eugene, fired another gun
last evening In tho Clackamas coun
ty local option campaign. A very
enthusiastic audience greeted tho
mayor and loudly applauded him in
his statements. He said in part:
"I come to you not as an orator,
but as a farmer of Lane county and
by good fortune, the mayor of Eu
gene. I conic not seeking political
honors, because my best days aro
gone, but I come in behalf of good
government, the elevation of char
acter and good citizenship.
"Eugene wont dry two years ago
under very unfavorable circum
stances. The mayor of the city at
that time, a man honest In his con
victions and a good man, too, was
not in favor of it, because he honest
ly believed that there was not suf
ficient public sentiment in Eugene
to make the law effective. There
were predictions of failure on every
hand and it was said that our pros
perity would be trampled in the
dust.
"But what are the facts about Eu
gene today? Instead of grass grow
ing in the streets we have paved
miles of them, under prohibition.
Tho 11 empty saloon buildings were
soon rented. Eugene prospered in
spite of tho loss of saloon revenue.
The last two years have seen the
largest increase in business and mo
ney in banks, in fact, in bank depos
its, Eugene stood at the head of
tho list in Oregon, leaving out Port
land. We have better collections.
Factories and mills are running full
time. Last year we put up from 200
to 300 dwellings, with an Increase of
population of 4,000.
"Let mo give you a fair sample of
business prosperity in the case of my
own son. Ho was doing a business
of $30,000 a year. After tho first
year of prohibition it was increased
to $45,000, the second year to $G0,
000, and this year it is larger than
ever before.
"The first year of prohibition we
decreased our city debt by $2,000,
besides purchasing a site for a new
city park, a team and chemical en
gine and hiring an engineer and sur
veyor and all this at an expense of
$12,000 over tho last year. No, the
grass is not growing in Eugene
streets; they were paved to tho ex
tent of $15,000 worth during pro
hibition and this year we aro mak
ing public improvements to the ex
tent of $815,000 and tho building
department shows that $83,000 in
permits was taken out in a month
for dwellings alone.
"Eugene has two daily and three
weekly newspapers, and all of them
are prospering."
