HY OltTON K. r.OODWlS,
Publicity Dcpurtmrnt, ('.uiniulllra of One
Hutiurrit.
There is only one fair way to
find out what Oregon dry will do
for Oregon. That is by investi
gating what Oregon dry has done
for those parts of Oregon now
dry.
So far as can bo leamod in
Salem, Oregon City, Hosoburg,
Albany, Kugene and other Oro
gon dry towns, business has been
better in all lines, save that of the
saloon, in every dry town.
Why, even In Pendleton, which
voted wet ufler being dry, but
which will probably vote dry, tunny
merchants tire now In favor of a
dry town nnd declare collections
were belter, business better and bud
debts fewer when the town wus dry.
Building Now Better.
In Sulem, building has been
greuter since the town went dry.
There are but few vneunt houses,
and those vacant nre described us
"shacks." Practically every suloun
has been re-tenunted by other lines
of business, and one of the prlncl-
Cut saloon sites has been replaced
y u fine new building block.
Since Salem went dry a 3:20,000
brick building has been erected and
a 940,000 business block Is oolno '
Doesn't look as If dry Salem hurt
that town, docs it?
Bettor Building Beiults.
Salem went dry J miliary 1, 1011.
The building permits for tho first
eight months of 1013. when the
town was wet, total 388,925. For
the first eight months of 1014 they
were $422,385, an Increase of
333,460.
Another Instance of u dry town
helping businesst Absence of the
saloon always means better busb
ness, for the money thut once went
to the saloon goes Into trade.
Checks cashed once in saloons are
cashed in stores and part of them
nre spent there, in place cf In the
saloons.
There wjore 2W .nrrcjts ,for .Ue.
first seven months of 1013 In Sulem
for drunkenness; in 1014 the ar
rests totaled only 47 for the same
cause.
Stores Enlarge Premises,
The three largest stores have had
to remodel their premises because
of increased business, when other
towns wet ut that have been com
plaining. In Oregon City arrests have de
creased GO per cent.
Violations of the .state liquor laws
(hooliegglng nnd so forth), are now
less Ihun one-half.
' You see the saloon men never
used to obey the law in jk dry
town they have to obey it.
Bank Deposits Increase.
Deposits in the banks have in
creased. There is more building.
Bad debts are being cleared up.
, Collections are easier. Not one mill
check bus been cashed in a saloon.
All business men say trade is bet
ter. Yhlch answers the question as to
why Ihe cru has come from all over
Oregon for a dry town.
L. Adams, one of the leading Ore-
! gon City merchants, said;
I "Since Oregon City went dry,
business has much improved. Col
lections are easier. I have fewer
bad bills on my books than I had u
year ago. People now have a ten
dency to buy their goods ut home.
I I used to cash 15 cheeks on mill pay
nignis. now i casn ou. The aboli
tion of the saloon has turned u vast
sum of money dully into the chan
nels of trade In, Oregon City."
All of whlc.li answers Ihe ques
tion of whether a town is better wet
or dry.

RUSSIA'S HOUR
PERHAPS tho most significant ev
ent slnco tho opening of the tro-
inondOlln Klirnnnnn wnr ilrnmn In
tho "form" shown by Russia.
It wbb to bo oxpected that Qor-J
many wouiu oo powerfully aggressive
umi uini r ranee wouiu snow brillian
cy and dnsh with less steadiness; that
tho first month of hostilities would
record Victories nnd tlnrnnta for l.nlli
sides. Tho first big surprise of tho
war came wuon ino uoiRinuB flamed
up ngalnst tho invading Oormnns and
dolayed for throe weeks tholr march
ngalnst Paris. And thoso threo weeks,
enabling Franco nnd England to mo
blllzo nnd dlsposo tholr forces, gnvo
Ittissln hor opportunity,
Tho Husslnn mobilization, neces
sarily slow and difficult on account
of tho vast oxtont of tho country nnd
tho lnck of railroads, was accomplish
ed In hnlf tho time tho world expect
ed. Thus, by tho tlmo tho Oormnns
wero ready to assail tho first lino
of French national defenses, the Rub
slans had crossed tho Herman border
nnd wero moving lrrestlbly through
East Prussia.
Tho rapidity and vigor of that In
vasion havo astonished ovory observ
er, and must havo struck Germany
with dlBinny. Hore, obviously, Is an
army very different from tho army
that Japan qut.toplocesjn Manchu
ria, In preparedness, dlsclplluo nnd
moralo.
East Prussia was not strongly de
fended, Germany possibly expected7
that It would bo occupied by Russia
ns ifar as tho Vistula River, by tho
tlmo alio herself had struck tho allies
a mortal blow In tho west nnd could
aparo a strong forco from hor Fronclt
campaign to drive back hero oastcrn
foe. But Germany did not foresee
that boforo she was roally across tho
Pronch frontlor Russln would havo
swopt East Prussia with tho right
wing of nn nrmy of 3,000,000 men.
Invaded Austria with the left wing
nnd driven n powerful central column
toward Posen with n second nrmy
or nearly 0,000,000 forming iu tho
ronr.
Poson Is only 140 miles from Bor
lln. With Poson captured, tho capi
tal of tho omplro would bo In danger.
Tho Russians seem as llkoly to cuter
Berlin as tho Germans to ontor Paris.
Tho victory of tho (lormatiB In tholr
first ronl battlo with tho alltou need
not conceal tho fnct that Germany's
predicament Is serious. Slio must
win quickly or slio may bo ground to
plccos hetweon tho gront armies of
tho wost and east. Austria cannot
help thoro aro tho roinorsoloss Rus
sian millions pressing Into Qallcla,
with 8orvln at hor back and Italy
menacing beyond.
And If Gormnny is couquored, Rus
sia may win tho supromo crodlt nnd.
prostlgo of tho victory.

WAR IS WORSE.
BANDON SCHOOL ATTENDANCE.
By Everott Dean Martin.
GENERAL SHERMAN said, "War
Is Hell." He meant that war is
the greatest ovll that ho could
think of. Ho was right, but Sherman
was a bolter soldier than a theolo
gian. Ho knew more about war than
he did about hell. He had already
been In war.
If anything could bo worso thuu
hoi! It Is war. Wo havo been taught
that people who suffer In holl aro
tho ones that ought to be thero. But
the victims of war havo no business
thoro. Thoy ought to bo at home,
making a living for their families, do
ing something useful, and enjoying
life.
It Ib said that tho people who go to
linll rniiMi Hint unlifiimv nlnpft nn n
result of their own dellborato choice.
But thoso who go to war aro often
forced Into It often beaten and
il.nrroa.t Inin I. nfVfllnst thMr Uflll.
through tho choice, or blundors or
selfish ambition of somebody else.
Wo understand that in hell, what
ever that Is, only tho guilty Buffer.
But in war It Is 'the Innocent that
suffer nnd tho guilty alt back In somo
safe place and grab oflt whatever
profit or honor thoro Is.
Moreover, I am sure that tho sehol-

Justify to a reasonable mind the ex

And besldos. It may bo remarked,
there Is nobody who doubts the ex
istence of war.
Yes, war la worso In many ways.
