Repeated Calls For Prominent Pro

. Bring Them Forward Thoroughly
Regulated Saloon Is Fivored.
SALEM, Or., July 25.-WhiIe he
disclaimed any intention to take sides
for or against distilled liquors, as
compared to fermented, at the meet
ing to discuss whisky v., beer, called
by Conrad Krcb Rev., Barr G. Lee,
rector of St. Paul' Episcopal Church,
admitted that he i in favor of tem
perance, and that temperance, in his
opinion, consisted of restriction and
regulation.
He favored plateglass fronts for st
loons from top to bottom, the elimi
nation of the dive and back room,
separate place for the sale of malt
liquor and full and free compliance
with the law by the saloon-keeper.
Rev. M. Lee expressed the opinion
that the time ha not come and may
never come when absolute prohibi
tion can e enforced. He said that
he thought that the men who are be
hind the present movement are, on
general principles, on the right
track.
Colonel Hofer referred to the rela-
talk which captured the audience of
nearly 1000 people. He said that "all
we want is a fair deal w? want the
local-option law amended so that we
will have a chance to vote separately
on fermented and distilled liquors.
We believe that if the people have a
chance to vote whisky out of busi
ness and retain beer, every county in
the state will elect to sell beer and not
one to sell whisky."
The speaker referred to conditions
in Germany, where, he said, everybo
dy drinks and nobody gets drunk,, and
advocated giving American babies
more beer and less milk,
olonel Hofer referred to the rela
tion of the sale of beer to the future
of the hop industry and urged that
beer be retained.
Repeated calls for prominent pro-j
hibitionists in this audience remained
unanswered. j
