CLAM SEVENTEEN COUNTIES
Think They Have Fljrlitlnj;
Chiuico in Four and Will Work

Subdivision.
Portland Telegram: Unless the
hleh-keyed expectations of tho foos of
rum have run off at a tangent, and
they know whereof they speak, the
llouor business In Oregon will suffer
a Jolt on the 8th day of November that
will make It look like a Russian buttle
ship, for If the calculations of the dry
crowd are anywhere near right, they
certainly have the other fellows on the
go. On the other hand the advocates
of splrltus frumentl and tho unre
strlcted distribution thereof Imv
hnnes of holding a Rood Wirt of their
ground, although It Is morally certnlr
that they see the handwriting on tin
wall In more places than one,
In the face of these connecting hopes
and fears the fight goes merrily on
Hither and yon the liquor men are
sending out tons of literature, railing
against the very Idea of prohibition
and detailing In terrible terms the aw
ful fate which visited other states
when they took such a step as to
abolish the liquor business: worse
than the harrowing tale of the nerve
racking prohibition spellbinder, when
recounting the woes of drink.
On the other hand, the dry element
has its orators In the field, showliiK
the voter the way, the truth and the
light In this vexed question. Colonel
John Sobieskl. of Los Angeles, who Is
running for congress on the prohl
ticket in California. Is out; Dr. E. L.
Tiffany, of Rochester, N. Y., Is ming
ling his eloquence with the stars; J.
M. Glass, of Berkeley. Cal., moves the
multitude, and R. Foster Stone, of
Missouri, does likewise. Besides these,
preachers of all denominations take a
whack at the subject In their several
communities every once In a while,
and thus the good work goes on.
E. O. Miller, secretary of the state
prohibition committee, after consul
ting his political log-boolc yesterday
afternoon, lined up the various coun
ties of the state something after this
wise:
Pretty sure prohl Yamhill, Tilla
mook, Benton, Lane, Linn, Douglas
Coos, Jackson, Lincoln. Sherman, Gil
liam, Umatilla, Union, Malheur
Crook, and Moro and Polk, should the
technicalities advanced against the pe
titions In those two counties be re
moved.
Good fighting chance Clackamas,
Wasco, Grant and Columbia.
Fighting for and hope to carry-
Washington and Marlon.
No word has been received as to
whether an election will be held In
Wallowa or not, but should there be,
Mr. Miller says, the prohls will win
beyond a reasonable doubt. Brother
Glass, who is working In the counties
of Jackson, Coos, Douglas, Lane and
Linn, has reported that In his Judg
ment these subdivisions will line up
on the dry side of the fence without
much question.
As to Multnomah, few have any
hopes of carrying the county as a
whole.' All believe, though, that they
will cut deep Inroads Into It In places.
For Instance, It is believed that the
two "gin mills" at Sell wood will have
to close up shop and decamp to a less
dry climate. Sunnyslde, they think,
will get rid of a thlrstquenchlng es
tablishment that has long haunted.
like an incubus, the good members
of the W. C. T. V. of which there are
a host In that residence community.
And there Is Montavllla! Verily, say
they, the signs of the times are that
Captain Schneider and William
Grimes, who- have long been a thorn
in the side of the dry people of that
suburb, will have to Join th, thirsty
caravan.
But the entire county will not go
prohibition. This Is the verdict of all
of them. And there Is a reason for It,
say they, for as Flnley McKercher said
yesterday, when discussing It, "We
can't very well expect it to go dry
with ail the preachers fighting lt,M and
thusly did Finlay McKercher sound
the keynote of a general discord
which prevalleth among the brethren
even unto this day.
And this presents the old story of
the divided house as applied to the
versus-whlskey element. The seeds
of that old squabble still slumber In
the thoraxes of many. A certain
Sore, Tender and
Perspiring.

"soreness" survives the balm of time
In the bosom of the local optlonlst, be
cause he thinks the prohibitionist took
the reins Jn his teeth and ran away
with the bandwagon, thus leaving the
local optlonlst to hold the sack. like
the snipe hunter of story; while the
prohl galls and frets because of the
persistent "beefing" of the local op
tlonlst. who, he says, lay In a state of
political hibernation during all the
time the petition was being circulated
and while It lay dustgatherlng In the
county cle'rk's office, and then ran out,
as It were, and yelled "Stop thief!"
when there was no thief and when It
was too lute to do any good, even If
there had been.
RODE TO HIS DEATH.
Ths Body of s Nude Msn Found N.sr
Bingham Spring..
Baker City Herald Engineer Cur
tis, of the O. R. & N., reports finding
the decapitated body of Seymour
Swauger, two miles west of Bingham
Springs on the railroad. The body
was entirely naked, but clothing was
found scattered along the track, con
firming the theory that he had been
riding on the train and had fallen off
and had been dragged. The head and
a leg and an arm were completely
severed. Swauger was In Pendleton
the day before and left for home that
night. He was forty-seven years of
age and was engaged In farming two
miles west of North Fork. He was
employed by the O. R. & U., as a
coal passer. He lived for many years
at Kamella, afterwards being In the
stock business there. He leaves a
wife and five children. He was there
a member of several fraternal organi
zations.
Swauger was well known here, and
had a number of friends whose sym
pathy Is extended to his wife and little
ones.

Golden Gsts Battsriss sn Champion

Sunset Magazine The California
batteries of fritted States heavy artil
lery recently gave a splendid illustra-,
tlon of accurate marksmanship In
their mimic defense of San Francisco
harbor. Three or four miles out, the
little target bobbed up and down over
every swell, a little white pyramid
whoso base was fifteen feet In length.
This represented the heart of a great
battle-ship. To strike near the target
within half the width or half the
length of a battle-ship meant a telling
shot. From Fort McDowell, on Angel
island, San Francisco bay, aiming
percentage gained was eighty; while
from Fort" Baker, not one shot failed,
resulting in the remarkable record of
100 per cent, a degree of acccuracy
never equaled. One shot actually de
molished the tiny white speck tossing
amongst the rollers.
