DRY" FORCES
OF COUNTY ARE
FOR NEW PARTY
Prohibitioni$ti in Convention
Adopt Resolution Faor
, ing Union
DELEGATES TO GO EAST
Stirring Addresses. Made at
Session Held in Salem
Yesterday
. A handful of the faithful attended
the meeting yesterday afternoon In
the W. C. T. U. headquarters, when
a resolution was adopted favoring
nnlon of Marion county Prohibition
ists with the new national party, at
a convention herd' in Chicago on
March 5 next. The object of the
meeting yesterday was to arrange
for delegates to meet in Portlan 1
next Saturday. February 23. at
'which time delegates will be select-
from Oregon to go Jio Chicago.
A. J. Cook was the chairman of
the meeting and Oliver Jory secre?
tary. In a somewhat lengthy ad
dress Mr Jory reviewed the work of
the Prihibltion party of Oregon for
some years past, and, bitterly criti
cized the actions of some of tha
Hate's leading politicians of a few
years ago. the governor, Hon. Chas.
W. Fulton, T. T. Geer and others,
a well as the dally papers of Port
land and Salem, In what he consid
ered their opposition to the passag9
by the state legislature of the pro
posed amendment to the state con
stitution when the attempt "was first
made to . make Oregon "bone ' dry"
years a,go, and drew the parallel
lesson that there are today just as
bitter enemies to fight in a final
effort to have nation-wide prohibi
tion, especially in the seat of the
national capital, at Washington, D.
C. "The liquor interests are wide
awake) and doing, and must be con
quered," he said. .
The Rev. F. H. Neff, who was
present and took a lively interest In
the debates, made a motion to pacs
a resolution which should show the
attitude of Marion county on the pro
posed unification of all parties Into
the new National party.
Befoe the resolution was written
by the secretary. Mr. Neff declared
that the attitude of the government
In the liquor question would either
win or lose the war now in progress
in Europe.
The moyement now on foot is to
amalgamate Independent thinkers 4n
the old parties, progressives, farmers
soclal-lobor groups, tax reformers
and ex-soclallsts and other reform
ers into the proposed new National
party. ; ,
Mr. Neff stated further that ef
forts must be crystallized in the
coming fight, and for that reason he
urged as many, should go to Port
land next Saturday as possible, to
take part in the deliberations there
and the appointment of delegates to
go to Chicago on March 5.
The resolution follows:
"Whereas, after many years of
effort and great sacrifice of time and
money, we, the Prohibitionists of
Marion county, consider the time is
now propitious for a union of all
reform forces along the line of pro
hibition and economic administra
tion of our, government, to the. end
that we have an honest and econom
ical administration, thereby to re
duce the b.irdens of government to a
minimum, therefore, be it
"Resolved. That we are In' favor
or such a union, that while it fully
covers our ideas on prohibition and
other reforms, it will bring with it
such strergth as will assure! their
adoption. lie It further
"Resolved, That we favor such a
union."
The resolution was signed by A.
J. Cook, chairman, and Oliver Jory,
fcecretary.

Kmelt Scarce Jnst Now
Aa there has been some talk about
the high price of smelt on the local
market, it may not be amiss at this
Juncture to t?.ke a statement from
the price lists -in Seattle and Ta
coma, wholesale. The price of smelt
at wholesale has advanced one-half
a cent pound, but today the price
of smelft i Salem Is just the same
as it has been for several days past.
10 cents a pound at retail. When it
is considered that express and cold
storage charges must be paid, the re
tall price here is considered reason
able. The gill nettera in the Colum
bia river are now getting the smelt
before they have a chance to get into
their spawning grpunds in the Cow
litz. Wash., river. W. S. Fitts said
yesterday this Is the cause of the
scarcity of smelt just now. Later
when the fish are given a chance to
reach the Cowlitx river, prices will
be about the same as last year, six
pounds for 25 cents. '

President F. W. Steusloff of the

is now engaged in working out the
details for ihs pet measure, the ap
pointment of a meat n dairy in

The scheme, when fully In opera

shippers, that any of (he products
in those lines can be used at home in
perfect safety and can be shipped to

We also wish to announce we are ready now even more

said yesterday that while ha is shin-
plng to Portland meats of various
kinds almost daily and buying on the
farms whenever he finds anything to
pass his own Inspection, he has so far
this season had no trouble with any
shipments made to Portland, never
theless be said: , "I stand pat, first
and all the time for the appoint
ment of a meat inspector for a meat
Inspector for Salem. We have one
deputy now, , under Health , Officer
Miles, but one man canno "ttend
to all the business as it should be
Vne if we. are to get results that
will be satisfactory to producers,
dealers, and shippers alike.
There baa been a little opposition
to the plan of having a meat in
spector. Hi Addition to the deputy
under Dr. Miles, on, the grounds of
economy,' but the objec tori; seem-to
forget .that the saving otthe health
of the city and the absolute security
Insured from disease as well as the
acceptance of Marlon's products of
meat on any market will more than
orf set the' cost of a local meat2 In
