PORTLAND NOW A SUMMER RESQRT. ,

have Come here regularly to enjoy the balmy climate but
to th average seeker after the finest of fine summer
weather it has -been' entirely unknown,; Seekers after
change from the higher and dryer climates to the east
ot us, all unknowing that here. was. to be found the most
perfect of all climatic contrasts; passed ui heedlessly by
to go to California and ber geJjittle if any of the relief
which they sought- sThe winter -tourists crowding back
from California rarely came'this- way and thus missed
ourJipringtimethatl season-of : absolutely .unsurpassed
beauty. : But the fair has brought' so many here who
never before beheld Portland and these have so widely
scattered it, fame thaf the city may flow be considered
to have fairly started on its career as a summer resort.
. This" being-true we must provide means of amuse
ment and 'entertainment for the people who will come
here.. Nextyeir we will have no such attractioar'asthe
fair, itself reented. rWe "will have the river trips and
these should be increased in attractiveness. ' W should
navemoreTsuburban'lihes, one particularly-leading to
Mount Hood 0 as to take away, from that trip all of 'its
present terrors. ..The suburban lines 'we have had in op
eration have not only been a source of great profit 'to
the owners because of increased business but they have
been of distinct advantage to the city itself in rendering
the stay of many people so much more attractive than
it otherwise would have, been. There ought to be ar
ranged a number of y fishing. trips in season. , The
boulevards .about the city should be rendered dnstless
through the use of oil which has proven so successful
along Twentieth street.'' Our parks should be brought to
the highest state of perfection, the fair having set a good
example toimitate, and the' various points of interest
shouldbe rendered easy of access. Tli-tzr-"-'
' One great source of disappointment to visitor is that
'they see so little of our far-famed snow-capped peaks.
This is usually due. to the fact that so much brush is
burned . during, the summer months. Some provision
should be made ao that these slashings should be burned
only after the middle of September or the first of Oc
tober "In this way the aspect of the country" would, be
vastly improved to the great'' benefit of everybody,
whether living in the city or country. - " - ' " ,

day after day? Crime - Wrongdoing pf one
'" degree or another, : all the way from petty
pilfering or begging to' murder, People who pursue the
even tenor of a lawful way usually do nothing to-make
new. Therefore crime, af least, perceived crime, is ab
normal, out of the ordinary, and so is news. But there
is an immense amount of it, so that unless a crime is it
self unusually -atrocious, or in some way unique, it is
only minor news; little attention ia .paidjcHt;;;':
IIownVany readers of the daily, papers ever stopped
to consider this dark flood of crime to which every city
and many villages and rural communities, daily contribute
their several murky, arid malodorous rills and rivulets;
the Trast number Pf-yi6lentranr unlawful deeds that go
so far to make up the sum of fhe world's news? And if
many readers have done this; did they" consider further
what caused a 'great proportion,' perhaps we might say a
majority of these crimes? j( ' ., ':'; .'..-,
.Yes, you have read it'-hear4 "it, given it a passing
thought, and, are 'ready withj the answer whiskey.
Meaning by. whiskey what, the early temperance advo
cates meant by "rum" any liquor that intoxicates. If
nobody eyer. oecame intoxicateq.; in ine least, crimes
would atitl be committed in the land, burthey woutd be
comparatively few, and mews would be scarcer. v This is
the debt of the press to whiskey. . . . .. . . ..
At A a man was stabbed and perhaps fatally injured.
after a carcmse. Whiskey. At B. thera was a drunken
brawl and one man bad an eye ; gouged out and another
his "teeth 'knocked down his throat. ""Whiskey. ;'AtrC
two .meajwhojhad quarreled and parted met again and
both' shot, one or botM being killed. ' In" the meantime
tncy naa joaaea up on wnisKey, in x-. hku !
presence of his family of small' children; cruelly beat his
wife because she "had no money to 'give him ' te- Jbuy
more whiskey. At K a young man of good family and
education was arrested for getting money on a spurious
check. -His "downfajl was due to whiskey. At .F. a
man was banged, and . on the scaffold he warned hia
auditors to bewart of : whatjtoqk him to. that fatal em
inence whiskey. , -J" '"" :r-:.
; And so it goes." 'As everybody knows,1 'eliminate
whiskey using the term generically and we largely
eliminate crime. 'There is no doubt about that. So that
th prohibitionists need make no apology for their ex
istence. . Yet we are notMor wholesale protiioftion, be
cause for practical and potent reasons," which have often
been '.'.stated, it is" hot yel practicable. . The saloon; in
large' communities'at least, is as yet a necessary evil.
;The thing to do then is to encompass th6 whiskey
selliitg business with rigid regulations, and require strict
compliance with them,, under the certain penalty of loss
of-th (license to sell thestuff that produces, aa much
crime and the higher the' license, up to a pretty stiff
figure,' the better..- Let the whiskey-selling business,
continue ' to . be , a V: legitimate ' business; for
thus '.only'-' can -drinking and consequent crime be han
dled" and restricted, , but compel Jhose, engaged in this
business to toe the mark of the law exactly at all points.
This is the. best that can be done; this much society
owes to itself. "';;;'' ..'""'"4 . '': ,."''" '.'.
"i We know that it will be said--f You are all wrong; It
isn't whiskey that, causes crime, btit the misuse of it;
you might as well say that there should be no pistols be
cause by one'a use a man may commit a crime.. We
don't care to split hairs abotrt this; the whiskey here,
it is misused, and crime results. We canitot.prefent
men from misusing the stuff any more ihan we can erad
icate it from nature; so. again, we should do the best we
can to make those .who dispense so dangerou a Sub
