Condon, Or.. Nov. 6. Condon's "dry"
spell under local 'Option Is about to be
a thing of the past. The city council
at 4ts last meeting gave an understand
ing to the saloonmen that they would
be riven licenses to run their olaces of
business beginning November 16. The
council has been a-ulded in its decision
by the action taken in the Medford
rase, Condon's charter being similar to
that city's. The main- contention was
whether -the license should be raised
and the number of saloons limited to
the five In business when the local op
tion law took effect, or whether the li
cense should ' remain at 1800 and the
number of saloons unlimited. The coun
cil favors the raising of the license to
$1,000.
The residents of the city are agitated
over tne prospect oi "wet" aays again
after they had voted for a dry town
but the city needs the money to run Its
bonded water system. During Condon's
five months "dry" steu marked
changes have taken place, but not for
'tne worst, as predicted by a great
many of the anti-local option law. Ten
places of business have been "started,
one livery stable Is being built, and an

Thomas academy, costing 130,000, la

is the heading -over the following , de
scription appearing in the Evening Tele
graph of the arrival of Mrs. Ada Wal
lace Unruh In Philadelphia:
""Within live years the whole United
States will have become "dry.' Within
seven years an amendment prohibiting
the liquor traffic will have been incor
porated into the constitution. Within
IS years people will look upon the use
of liquor as they now look upon the use
of drugs.'
"This Is the way that Ada Wallace
Unruh defines the future of the prohibi
tion movement. Mrs. Unruh is official
lecturer of the W. C. T. U. She Is in
Philadelphia to conduct a campaign of
a week against the demon drink.
"Seaborn Wright of Georgia was 'to
have headed the onslaught, lut at the
last moment he withdrew. Hence Mrs.
Unruh was hurriedly summoned from
the W. C. T. U. convention at Denver
to fill his place.
lng last night. Her schedule of speeches
extends through till Monday. She plans
to conduct several noonday shop meet
ings among the working men. She will
try to win them over to the prohibition
movement.
"Mrs. Unruh is a veteran campaigner
for her chosen cause. For 25 years she
has lectured In its favor. She has seen
11 leap to success. Now she. predicts
its future.
'"One half of the population of- the
United States today Is living In dry ter
ritory,' she says, 'and 76 per cent of
this territory has been won from the
liquor interests within one year. The
growth of the temperance movement 1s
one of the most remarkable things In
modern history. .
"'Georgia, Oklahoma, Alabama,' Mis
sissippi and North Carolina are our new
solid dry states. Our old ones are North
Dakota, Maine and Kapsas. Most of
our other strongholds are by counties
In local option states. Gradually our
hold is becoming complete.
" 'Of course, the last stand of the
liquor men will be made In the great
cities. Under the local option plan we
could not win them. But this can be
overcome. We have a state election,
the country districts have the power,
and the cities find themselves dry. In
a short time they realize what a real
benefit it is. Atlanta, which cried out
against us at first, is now with us.
" 'People ask us "What will take the
place of the saloon as the worklngman's
club?" The answer is Simple. The
Toung Men's Christian Association, with
lis wonderful educational advantages;
the institutes, all sorts of humanita
rian organizations, will not only replace
the saloon, but will benefit our men In
stead of making swine of them.
" The remarkable spread of prohibi
tion is not due to a hysteria, but to the
fact that sober thought shows that it
Is best. That is why we are winning,
and shall continue to win.' "
