Word comes from Hood River that the unusually warm weather which haa prevailed this week has precipi tated a most unusual condition In the strawberry industry. The berries have ripened so rapidly that it haa been necessary to summon almost every man, woman and child In the community to harvest and pack the crop to keep from losing it, so that they cannot possibly do Justice to the entertainment of vis-itoI?.- J1!"

Pany. cor- Local option procedure Is very much tangled up In Oregon Just at present In the opinion of lawyers and the date of the next local option election Is uncer tain and undetermined.' Some attorneys contend that there might be another local option contest' In November next. Others argue that there can be none un- loglo to show that there can be no new attempt made to spread the blanket of prohibition over the state until tbe first Tuesday after the first Monday of jNovemoer, jdib. All the tangle la the result of the adoption by the people at the recent election of the constitutional amendment changing the time for holding the gen eral elections or me state rrom tne rirst Monday of June to the first Tuesday following the first Monday of Novem ber, to correspond with, the national elections. It is provided In section a of the local option .law. which, hmm. effeotlv in 1004, that the first local option elections should be held the first . Tuesday after tne nrst Monaay or November, 1V04. it Is evident ' that there was a desire on u nart of the frameraof the law to put the local option method Into effect as soon as possiDie aner us enactment, for It Is further provided In the same section that following the first election an otner elections . snouia t ne neia 'thereafter only on the first Monday In June of any year." This clause was evidently Intended to place the date of noimng tne local option - elections at the same time with all other .state elec tion a . - The adoption ' of the constitutional amendment puts the date- of Oregon's general elections in November. The amendment, however, does not become effective until November, 110. The local option law still says that all local option elections shall' be held "only on tee nrst' Monaay in june or any year. It was the intention of the anti-saloon people to pick up the gauge onoe more in wovemDer ana try out tne local op tion question In those places where they were worsted In the recent campaign. Especially true was this of Lincoln county, where the, county voted wet by a bare majority of three votes, and after It had been dry for two years. ; Strange Tangle of Dates.. The fact that the constitutional Amendment specifically provides that the first election under the amendment shall be In November, 1910, evidently shuts the anti-saloon people out of the running so. far as November, 1908 or 1900, is concerned. It also evidently allows a local option election to be called for June 7, 1909. It la being held by some sides, how ever, that the adoption of the amend ment will shut the local option people from the polls until November, 1910. It Is argued that the framers of the local option law intended that the date of the local option elections should be the same as those of the general elections. The changing of the date of the general elections rrom June to November would of right and In Justice take the date of the. local option elections with It Since tnere nas just oeen one general election and will not be another until November, 1910, there can be of light no more local option elections until the amendment be comes active and the election of 1910 is held. If this contention sh6uld be up held by the courts there could be no anti-saloon election In June of 1909, nor in November of 1909, nor in June of 1910. . ; There is strong probability that , the question will, be taken into the courts as an effort will undoubtedly be made to raise the question at the earliest date. Already the question is arousing much Interest amonar lawyers and both the followers of the anti-Saloon league and of its opponents - have submitted the question to attorneys for their opinions regarding the present Interpretation to be placed on the law.
