To the voters: Everywhere it is about tho same. The policy of those fighting local option seems to be one of prevarication. An illustration is given in the following about Kansas City: 190S: Lie No. 1 City has lost popula tion. Fact No. 1 Increase for twenty- two months of Prohibition, 11,180. Lie No. 2 City in slough of debt. Fact Jo. 2 Debt reduced under Prohibition, $411,470. Lie No. 3 Property valuation do creased.

Governor Hoch of Kansas, In his annual message to the legislature, January, 1907: Relatively (and everything is relative In this world) the prohi bitory policy has been a great suc cess In this state. It has been a great benefit educationally, morally and financially to the people. Our lier capita wealth is over ninety dol lars nearly three times the average In the United States and now where Is wealth more equally distributed. A poorhouse is always a joke In Kan sas. The devil never invented a big ger Ho than that revenue from Ille gitimate sources Is necessary to the financial success of any town or city. Such a contention is an Insult to any community In Kansas. New Eldorado In Oregon Makes Second-Hand Deal ers Wealthy Quick. GRANT PASS, Ore.. Mav 1 fi Three second-hand dealers of this city, who three months ago counted .'their assets In a few dollars, are now believed to bo worth $100,000. These men are Robert and Benjamin Har rison, brothers, and C. C. Jones who, In less than 90 days, have taken $30,000 in gold from a claim in the Williams Creek mining district, 20 miles Bouth of here. It is rclinhiv reported that these men have suffi cient of the yellow metal in sight to raise their fortunes to a round $100 000. Pan Out 87,000 Kastcr Sunday. It seems almost incredible that only last Thursday these mining pounds of pure gold In one pan, but back of this comes their best day's yield which netted them on Easter Sunday in round numbers $7,000. In an interview today, Robert Harrison, one of tho owners of the mine, who came to town to transact business concerning the disposal of ore, verified tho rumors that had leaked out. Producing $200 to 8500 a Day. "Yes, It is true," said Harrison, "that wo have a rich mine, and we have been taking out lots of gold every day since we have been out there in that district. For the last 30 days our, mine has produced from $200 to $500 every day. We have just sunk a chute 100 feet and from all indications I think a conservative estimate will fix tho amount of ore in sight at not less than $75,000. The opening shows up a 9-lnch vein and Is rich beyond our most sanguine expectations. "Will Wo Soil? No, Sir." "Last Tlnrsday our net proceeds for the day amounted to 12 pounds of pure gold, so you can see why wo wish to keep our mining business to ourselves. We have been operating In the Williams Creek mining district since about the first of March. Our richest strike was made on Easter Sunday, when tho boys took out $7,000." Asked if he had realized $10,000 In all, tho reply was: "Three times that amount, but I do not care to discuss that matter now. We have the mines and they are there to show for themselves. Would we sell our mine? I hardly think so at the present time. Would you, with a fortune in sight?" COOS COUNTY BntTIIS. BORN Near Coquille. Oregon, to Mr. and Mrs. Ole Lund, a son.
