Wriggling nenrously in the den

questions before taking his first
treatment under gae. .
' "Will it make me sick?" be
asked. -' .'
"Not at all." said the dentist.

"How long will it be before I
know anything? was his final
query as the mask was adjusted.
"You're asking a good bit of the
anesthetic." remarked the dentist

THE BRITISH HOP TARIFF
The new British tariff on hops, to take effect August
, 15th, does not look good to Oregon growers just now. At the
present rate of exchange, it amounts to 18 cehtija pound.
" Add 15 cents a pound, the cost of production in Offcgon, and 6
"V cents a pound, the cost of freight and commission: and insur
v .anee, and the total of 39 cents a pound in England, is a cent
- higher than the English hop control (ruling up to! August 15)
has fixed as the price of hops rijii
And it is obvious' that the English price miist be above
-39 cents a pound in order to make that market , at all attrac
; tiye to our growers. It no doubt will be, some years.
; i But the American duty on hops is 24 cents ja; pund
: And the American market for hops is a grplying one, so
it may transpire ere long that our growers will be guaranteed
a living price for their product through the American protec
tive tariff " v'-'V1 " : ' ' - f - j 1 1 :;:'
. And they surely wiU be if the American demand shall
grow large enough to take up the full American hop crop.
; Put enough steam behind the mild malt drinks of the
United States, and there will soon be a large enbugh home
demand to take all the hops grown in this countrji
i It would pay our hop growers to set aside anj (advertising
fund of a fraction of -a cent a pound, to help the mild malt
drink manufacturers push their business, j j
rl CURB THE ROAD HOUsES
On entering the kitchen early
one morning the mistress saw a
plate and knife and fork, the for
mer of which had evidently con
tained cold pie. ; The mistress sus
pected a certain policeman of hav
ing supped off it, and' the follow
ing conversation took place be
tween her and the cook:
Mary, what has become ot the
cold pie that was left?"
"Oh. I didn't think it was want
ed, mum, and so I gave it to the
dog." ,v ' . -
"Does the dog use a knife and
fork, then?'' the mistress inquir
ed, sarcastically. ..
"Not very, well, mum, but I'm
teaching him ' to,"' was the un
abashed reply.

Did You Ever Stop
to Think? !
By E. R. Walt. Secretary
Bbawnea, Okls Board of Commarca
A campaign inaugurated by the Antif Saloon! League of
Oregon for the purpose of initiating a measure 'forj the control
of road houses and dance halls is under way j jtempt,will
'be made to obtain enough signatures to a petitiort to put the
measure on the ballot for the. next regular election.
It was thought that the law. passed by! the la
ture with the intent to curb the evils of the modern dance hall
i ,1 i - i . - t
would meet the situation. But a Multnomah punty; court
with a legal nicety not observed by the lawyer members of
the legislature which passed the law, declares that the road
houses though permitting dancing do not come under the defi
nition of the dance hall law. Hence dances cannot be regu
lated as was intended by the law recently ; passed.
Thousands of young people including girls; are found in
these dance places nightly chiefly in country districts away
irom ponce supervision, jviany oi mese placets are; recogiuzeu
as dens of vice and the most difficult so-called, amusement
places to control. inf 'attff
.-. Many of these road houses are fostered , by moonshiners
and bootleggers and their moral atmosphere is jladen with
vice and corruption. . , j j ; 1
The law proposed will strive to curbithei evils of the
- Situation. It will not confiscate property or mbral rights.
Beyond these rights none should be permitted to go. ( I
-? It will provide : A definition ' of a dance halll which will
- cover road houses; a license; including bond to insure orderli
vjiess; and will require the sheriff to accept some; iresponsibil
: ity for the proper. operation of these places by
signature to the licenses. If he is not willing to
responsibility in his county the license will not be issued.
lleavy penalties will be provided for intoxication; minojs
imust be accompanied by parent or guardian and lady floor
manager of good character and mature age shall be in charge
'at dances. The abatement law is to be applied and violations
;of the law will also beT punishable by fine and revocation of
license for at least one year. ' : j ' ; , , ;

six canneries. What would be do
without them? There is going to
be room for more of them here,
and bigger and bigger canneries.
Some one asks the Bits for

Southern Pacific has given a round
trip fare of $1.69 (certificate
plan) between Salem and Oregon
City, for the GAR encampment
19th to the 26th. All the patri
otic orders are to be there. - A
big time.
Talking about "light wines and
beer, have you tried the mild
malt drink that is on tap at many
places in Salem- Just like the old
fashioned beer of the long ago, ex
cepting tht it has less than half
of one per cent alcohol? That Is
surely light beer. No one should
want it any lighter. And many
kegs of It are lapped up in1 Salem
each day. That's what the Slogan
man Is talking about. He has a
vision of the thing bei.ng pnshed
till all the hops grown in the
United States are used here, large
ly in making the light malt drinks.
The Slogan , man has to prove,
next Thursday..! that Salem is a
good wholesaling; and . jobbing
town. Wants, the help of every
one. Are you a wholesaler or Job
ber? Perhaps you will be over
looked, unless you give the Slogan
man a tip. . ,
