But alas for his triumphant vision,
for on December 17, 1846, the legisla
ture repealed prohibition and passed s
license law, and that, over the veto
f Oregon's first governor. George
Abernetby. The vote stood 11 to 6.
About two years later I became ac
quainted with several who had voted
for that license law and who. X learned,
loved their whiskey or other strong
drink. True, today, no doubt, of many
who oppose prohibition." v
The original Oregon comprised the
present states of Oregon. Washington,
Idaho and a part of Montana. a vast
territory. ' Like the Babylonian - 70

so these whole states have been in
bondage to King Alcohol,, but by the

CIBUS H. WALKER.
The Pupil and His Work.
Portland. Sept. 6. To the Editor of
The Journal is there no parent to
thank the editor for his advi.ee last
week, "Send the boy back?" Certainly
the average parent has turned the other
cheek to the lash of public censure and
ought now to confess . his sins and
evavjce ana guiaance xrom l nose
. , B
who have' it to bestow.
Our adviser says: If it is your own
boy be tolerant toward his restlessness
but see that he goes back to his books
Those who have studied an own boy
for 14 or more years have learned far
more from him than he has from his
parents. They have learned that
growth Is. the law of his being; that
mental hunger is as natural for him
as physical hunger. We violate a higher
than' man-made law when we' force htm
to, take either mental or physical food
that nauseates him. When going to
Bcnooi becomes a duty instead of
privilege a child is' being robbed of a
most sacred right and It Is time to ask.
"why 7"
Was the child made for the school, or
was the school established to help par
ents raise gooa citizens? Has school
work become "a deadening round of
trivial ana monotonous tasks?" Does
it fit him for anything except -a "blind
auey occupation? Is he developing In.
telllgent initiative? As a guide to the
proper a mental development of the
j cuua i no course or study is excellent.
ias a set ox rules to be nla.vl-.hlv ni
lowed, it may be questioned. Many
cnuaren are so constituted that they
will do more in six months of school
work than they will in nine consecu
tive months.
A normal child ought to do all the
work of the grammar school by the
time he is 15. Under right conditions
ne wm ao it Joyously. If by reaching
a certain standard in six months de
voted to the major studies he eonirl
earn the privilege of working as an
apprentice in a suitable vocation he
could pursue the minor branches as
recreauon rrom physical work. He
should, however, be under the super

Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Reiner Jr., who
are engaged in the fur business, have
accomplished the impossible in the
way of a canoe trip. At least every
body with whom they talked told
them It would be Impossible for them
to ascend the Willamette river to a
point 45 miles above Eugene with a
canoe. But they demonstrated that
these people were mistaken in their
opinions; they made the trip up
stream, and then canoed home again,
from Oak Ridge to Portland, about 200
miles by water. In 11 days. While the
down stream trip was made In il
days, it required 30 working days to
make thedistance upstream from Cor
vallis to Oak Ridge.
The entire trip, through canyons and
rapids that they were told had never
been traveled with a canoe before, was
made without a single spill, although
on the down trip when the 16-foot
canoe sped through the rapids both of
the occupants were soaked to the skin
nearly every day.
Trip Took Poor Months.
We were gone nearly four months
on the trip and had the finest outing
imaginable," said Mrs. Reiner. "But
Z wonder now how I had the nerve to
ride through those rapids. Now that
is the United States estimate 265,000
bales for home consumption, and other
liquors counting also; Kansas corn
used for bourbon whisky, sold and
pocketed by Kansas prohibition and its
ministry who condemn us for selling
hops. A prohibition lady said she waa
picking hops to get school books. Our
enemies, the ministers, are to blame
for this conflicting absurdity. On the
other hand, prohibition Is injuring the
church because many forget that min
isters are not the church. They were
born like any of us, stupid, toothless,
bawling babies; as men or women, no
wiser than, we are, but with greater
influence. They could induce witch
craft, polygamy and war. Everyone
respects a man. Did you ever see
anyone who respected him for being
drunk? We say, prohibit the drunk
ard, and prohibit prohibition.
Answering my opponent I say, let
the milk and honey flow. Tes, liter
ally speaking, our valley is flowing
with beer and w'ine. It enriches Ore
eon, and the world's commerce. Re

Portland, Or, Sept. 8. To the Edi
tor of The Journal Much as one might
be compelled to admit the cleverness
of A. S. Ruth's arguments, I incline
to the belief that he is not quite so
disinterested as he sounds. Is not
this the same Mr. Ruth who was sec
retary of the liquor organization and
campaign manager for them until tbe
arrival in Oregon of Mr. Eppstein?
Is not this the same Mr. Ruth who
was known at Olympia, Waslw as the
advocate of the liquor people? ' I be
lieve he is. In his letters .about Kan
sas, why does he not mention these
facts: The consumption of liquor in
Kansas is one-twentieth what It used
to be. Kansas dry is a success, be
cause every political party in Kansas
has incorporated the prohibition plank
in its platform. Since. Kansas has
been dry, poverty has decreased amaz
lngly; sot has the number sent to
prison annually. The "dead beat" is
almost unknown. Bad debts are alJ
most unknown. When the resubmis
sion of the prohibition amendment was
proposed in Kansas in 1912 : about
20,000 people voted for It, and this
must have been the entire "wet" pop
ulation of the state. The death rate
In' Kansas has dropped. Taere are
very few women "in the penitentiary.
Twenty-nine counties have no inmates
on the poor , farms. , I admit i freely
with Mr. Ruth that Kansas dry cannot
compare with Oregon wet. but I have
shown clearly that Kansas dry is tre
mendously improved over Kansas wet.
That is the only test.". It Is obviously
true that Oregon dry will be superior
to Oregon wet. 'Ask the citizens in
any dry part of Oregon.

"Everybody we saw told us we could
n't possibly do it, and they told us
about the various persons who had
been drowned in the river until it is
a wonder that we took the venture."
The Relners left Portland May 2,
shipping their canoe and camp outfit,
which weighed about 80Q pounds, to
Corvallis, . where they took the river.
They spent a month leisurely paddling
upstream to Eugene. They fished and
camped along the way, and according
to the diary they kept spent 15 days of
the time in the actual work of push
ing their way upstream.
At Eugene, where they encountered
the big dam in the river, they took the
canoe through the mill race. There
the people they met also told them they
could not make the trip up the river,
but they refused to be daunted and de
cided to go as far as they could, any
way. Xegotlats Bspils Snooessfnlty.

I have studied the question and know
something about it. The prohibition

Those who have nothing to lose when
a change is made, and .those who live
from loaning money. Business men
are rarely prohibitionists, because they
know that prohibition hurts business.

It throws thousands of people out of

makes worse the case it seeks to cure.
It empties many store rooms, contracts
business and auxiliary occupations Into
those trades that are now overcrowd
ed, and makes competition worse than
ever. It robs the taxpayer of the
license money and increases taxes.
Under present conditions, a man is

Imported agitators, who are entirely

Rock rapids successfully.
Mr. Reiner said they had a 60-foot
rope tied to tbe canoe and worked
their way back and forth across the
stream, finding the best places
through which to pull the boat as they
gradually worked their way upstream.
But when they got ready to return
home they rode the entire distance,
shooting the rapids at great speed.
Seiner Kills Beer
They camped for five weeks at Oak
Ridge, where the fishing was fine, and
on August 2 Mr. Reiner shot a deer.
"I was the lucky man." he said, "as
the brush was so dry and made so
much noise when one walked that the
hunters in that district didn't have
much luck. I was sitting in a huckle
berry patch when a deer walked out
right in front of me. It wasn't any
trick to get him then."
Mr. Reiner took the deer down to
the Wallace farm, which was the last
place of habitation they had passed
on the right side of the river going up,

and the Wallaces helped dress It.
"The people all along the river
treated us fine." said Mrs. Reiner,
"and we enjoyed every day of the
outing."
