Mrs. Willebrandt
THOSE people who pictured Mrs. Mabel Willebrandt as a
flaming angel of bigotry and puritanic persecutor of vio
lators of the Volstead act, are finding out, if they are reading
her story, that she is no such creature. Mrs. Willebrandt was
held up to the country in an
picture was purposely distorted
articles on the prohibition question are revealing stories of
the machinery of prohibition enforcement and violation. Her
writing impresses one with her
balance of judgment and at the
oath of office and to sensible
was her assignment.
Mrs. Willebrandt is throwing; back the curtain. But she
is doing so in no stagy manner
late associates. Her stuff carries the ring of truth about it
She takes a whack at weak-kneed office holders, at grafting
appointees and bosses, and- at wrong-headed Anti-Saloon
workers. But she puts her finger on the true seat of the fail
ures of prohibition when she charges the great weakness up
to political interference. As she says the alliance between
booze and politics has been of long standing. Who does not
recall the tie-up between saloon and brewery interests and
political bosses? The affiliation is different now, but it is
still there.
Here is what Mrs. Willebrandt said on the subject, which
is worth the surveys of a dozen investigating commissions.
Wickersham's committee can v,ork six months and dig up
nothing more accurate:
Politics. In that one word I can best and most completely de.
scribe the greatest handicap to the enforcement of the prohibition
law.
Politics and liquor apparently are as inseparable as a combi
nation as beer and prettels.
But the combination is no new thing. It existed long before
the eighteenth amendment was adopted.
My memory is not so short that I do not recall the old alli
ances between the brewers, distillers and saloon-keepers 6a the
one hand, In the days before prohibition, and the professional poli
ticians on the other hand. The liquor interests financed the city
nnd state campaigns; they controlled city councils, county boards
of commissioners, state legislatures.
They "headed off" through their political allies early-closing-hour
ordinances, Sunday-closing, laws applying to saloons; local or
county option measures, and higher-license ordinances and laws.
The saloonkeepers, the brewery owners, the whiskey wholesalers,
were always willing to "chip In" to help elect a county or state's at
torney, a member of the Legislature or the City Council who would
be broadminded, as they termed it, on the liquor question.
I will not confess yet to being old. but I do not expect to live
long enough to witness a complete divorcement of politics and the
liquor trade, legitimate or illegitimate.
Politics, from the county courthouse and the city hall to the
' national Capitol and the White House in Washington, have been
most responsible for the faiures of prohibition, enforcement.
I'm not minimizing the effect of the thirst of a large number
of people tor alcoholic liquor. But that's the other side of the pic
ture. It they were not thirsty they would obey the law and enforce
ment would not be a problem. Obedience to law is ideal and far
more to be desired than enforcement. But we must face the tacts.
And the fact is there's too large a number of people unfriendly to
the eighteenth amendment to expect at this time enough voluntary
cbdience to it to save our national honor.
You can neither coax, scold nor nag the people into law ob
servance. Consequently, enforcement is the necessary approach at
this time. Enforcement in court, .not promises. Orderly enforce
cment. Strictly legal methods of enforcement. Enforcement by
trained, highly Intelligent men, imbued with high morale and a
pride in their service. Courageous enforcement. Enforcement back
ed up at Washington. Everybody would not like such enforcement,
but everybody would respect it. even politicians.
Requiescat in Pace
"Bryan 'drooling'! What a pity that our brilliant young ed
itor should be so biased by partisanship that he fails to sea the
grandeur of one of America's greatest leaders."
That is the way the stalwart defender of the true faith,
W. A. Delzell, concludes his muster of rhetorical flourishes in
the Capital Journal in reply to a casual statement of fact in
a recent editorial in these columns containing the clause
"since the boy orator of the
We profess to be neither brilliant nor young. Our personal
knowledge of Bryan extends from his campaign of 1896 to
his death in 1926 and we insist it takes a large measure of
partisan bias to see any "grandeur" in Bryan, whether as
boy. orator or the Peerless Leader..
Why our little aside was almost a quotation! Henry
Watterson, great Kentucky democrat, wrote back in those
stirring days of '96 concerning William Jennings: "He is a
boy orator. He is a political fakir. This intellectual whip

past generation. His sonorous voice was his chief capital
and his ability to sell platitudes to the masses and invest po
litical fallacies with glamorous appeal was his sole stock in
trade. He drooled his way to
idency, then he drooled his way to fortune oyer the Chautau
qua circuit. His theology was as much drivel as his politics.
He was the shaman of the religious primitives, the trumpeter
for evangelical rustics. Drooling is the softest word one can
use for his sanctif ication of ignorance in the prosecution of
Scopes at Dayton. j
It was Bryan who predicted overwhelming disaster un
less debts could be paid with fifty-cent dollars through free
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. It was Bryan who
magnified provincialism in his issue of anti-imperialism in
1900. It was Bryan who advocated government ownershp of
railroads in 1906. It was Bryan who foisted state guarantee
of bank deposits in Oklahoma and other western states. It
was Bryan who blundered and bungled as secretary of state,
who urged' colonial appointments for "deserving democrats"
and told Dumba not to take the American note on the Lusi
tania sinking seriously. Bryan was in truth one of Amer
ica's greatest leaders of false hopes and vain causes.
With as large an output of words and phrases it is not
surprising that his chaff was accompanied by a few grains
of wheat. He was a great leader of his party, and fought
valiently in support of the decent element within the party.
The country misses him all right, familiar figure that he was
in Lincoln, Miami and way points, with his alpaca coat and
palm leaf fan. And for lack of his drooling the Chautauqua
has perished with him, for no one else can crowd the planks
under the sun-bathed canvas.

-By R. J. HENDRICKS
Oregon's first school teacher
s s s
Who was he? He was John
Ball. He came with Captain Na
thaniel J. Wyeth on his first trip
in 1832. Ball was a native of
New Hampshire and a man of
education. He was then 38; and
at 80 he wrote a book, published
by his daughters in 1925.
mm "
The party left from Baltimore,
about the middle of March, over
the Baltimore & Ohio railroad,
60 miles, by horse power, to
Frederick and that 60 miles
"was then more than all the oth
er railroads in the union," he
said in his notes. The track was
strap iron riveted to granite.
V
The way was on foot from
Frederick to Brownsville, Pa.,
the party having a wagon for the
luggage. At Brownsville a steam,
boat was taken on the Mononga-
hela for Pittsburg; thence in the
same way of travel to St. Louis;
stopped at Cincinnati, a village
containing a few small buildings
of wood. Among the passengers
on the boat were Rev. Lyman
Meecher. St. Louis was a village
of old French buildings. The
party while there saw a steam
boat sail, to go up the Illinois
river, with United States soldiers
to fight Black Hawk, who was
overrunning the country about
where Chicago now is.
The Wyeth party took the same
steamboat, and parted with the
soldiers at the entrance of the tur
bid waters of the Missouri into
the Mississippi, in order to get to
Lexington, thence to Indepen
dence, Missouri, where William
Sublette was in camp with his
hunters and trappers getting rea
dy, to go to the Rocky mountains.
Mr. Sublette consented that the
Wyeth party might join him, on
condition that they should travel
fully under his command, and un
der strict milftary discipline,
fearing Indian attacks, for at that
time the savages had a grudge
against Mr. Sublette.
A Mr. Campbell Of St. Louis
also joined the party, and was
named lieutenant. The whole
cavalcade when it started consist,
ed of some 80 men and 300 hors.
e, about 25 of the men being of
the Wyeth contingent. 20 of them
being mostly laborers and form
er loafers Capt. Wyeth had picked
up. The idea was to have three
horses to a man. one for riding
and two as pack animals, with
a few extra ones for emergencies.
It was May 12 when the party
was fully under way and in the
Indian country, "beyond the
law."
S
By the time the party had
reached the forks of the Platte
their provisions were about ex
hausted. The south branch was
forded and a short ride brought
the party to the north or main
branch. They had now reached
the buffalo country, and had
lean meat and poor, boiled, for
want of fuel other than "buffa
lo chips" to cook it. Later on
they fonnd fat buffalo and wood
for fuel to cook the meat, and
fared much better. Soon they
passed great herds of buffalo, and
their fare was straight meat of
those animals. They came to the
famous south pass, where they
left the main buffalo country and
on July 4 th arrived at the first
water flowing into the Columbia
river, and shortly came to Pierre's
Hole, where the great rendezvous
of mountain men. hunters and
trappers and Indians, was held
that year. Wild scenes were wit
nessed by the teaderf eet of the
wyeth Contingent. Sublette part
ed from the company there and
turned his way eastward towards
St. Louis with 70 horses packed
with hearer, estimated to be
worth (!M(t in the New Tori
market. ATI but 12 of the Wyeth
party deserted there and went

back with Sublette. The 12 Tan
kees saw gome Indian fighting,
between the Flatheads and Black,
feet, and eome of the trappers
who were going on for more
beaver for the next year's rendez
vous. The Wyeth men arrived
safely at the site of Fort Hall,
being In the company most of
the way that far of 16 free trap
pers plying their trade, setting
their traps for beaver.
From there on the Wyeth party
of 12 pushed oh towards Fort
Walla Walla, part of the way fol
lowing the directions of friendly
Indian guides, suffering much
from hunger; at one point in the
Blue mountains killing an old
horse for food. They also appeas
ed their hunger with berries. The
party arrived at Fort Walla Wal
la October 18th, and there for
the first time since leaving the
forks of the Platte the first of
June, ate bread. They procured
at the fort a boat and two Cana
dians to take them down the Co
lumbia, and started the next day.
They arrived at Fort Vancouver
October 29th, 1832.
'm
"Though a hard looking set
and unexpected," said Mr. Ball
in his notes, "we were received
very kindly and treated ever in
the most hospitable way." But
Ball and some other members of
the party did not feel that they
had reached the end of their
journey till they had seen the Pa
cific; so, a few days after, ac
companied by four others, he se
cured an Indian canoe and pad
dled down the Columbia to Fort
George, now Astoria, and to the
point where Lewis and ' Clark
wintered in 1804-1805. When
they got back to Fort Vancouver
they found one of the 12 of their
party dead and buried. He had
eated heartily of peas for his sup
per which gave his the colic and
before morning he expired. It
was new food for him, for the
party had lived for months on
animal food.

entertained at his own table by
Dr. McLoughlin. They were told
that they were guests add were

services. But Ball was not sat.
is fled with this, for he was imbu
ed with Yankee thrift, so a bar
gain was struck that he should
be the teacher of the fort. So
he became the first school teach
er in the Oregon Country. The
pupils were all half-breed chll
dren. Ball says half-breed boys,
so evidently the girls were not
considered to need any education
Included among them was the
quarter-breed son of Dr. Mc
Loughlin. There were of 'course
then no white women in the Ore

Indian or mixed blood. Mrs.
Narcissa Whitman and Mrs.
Spalding did not come till four
years later, and the first five
white women to the old mission
below what Is now Salem five
years later. In 1837.

Mr. Ball taught school at the
fort that winter, and Dr. Mc
Loughlin wanted him to continue,

line as a youth la New Hamp.

MOVEMENT OP INDUSTRIES
In an industrial survey made
recently by a big insurance com
pany, covering practically every
community of any size in this
country and Canada, it was found
that during the period 1927-28 a
total of 10,267 industrial plants
employing 371,334 workers were
gained by 1934 communities. Of
this numer 8400 were new plants;
964 were moved from one city to
another; and 903 were branches
of existing plants. This is remark
able in as much as it shows how
little movement" there is of es
tablished industries.
During the same period these
communities lost 5908 plants, ei
ther because of their goitfg out of
business or moving away. The
survey comments on the fact that
too many communities center ef
forts on acquiring new industries,
and often do not devote enough
attention to aiding in the success
of those they have.
Another interesting feature In
this same survey is a statement
that the data gathered indicates
that offers of bonuses, free land,
free buildings, and free taxes,
play little or no part in the loca
tion of plants, and the survey
states In conclusion that this prac
tice has proved a negligible fac
tor in the development of any
community.
The real reasons for plant loca
tion the article claims are: trans
portation, labor, markets, and
available power at reasonable
rates. The community which has
these factors to offer apparently
needs no other attractions for in
dustry, and those who have not
these attractions, or some of them
have little success in their endea
vors toward industrial develop
ment. Morning Astorian.

itably in the business of printing
textbooks.
We favor any plan which will
reduce the cost of textbooks to
the patrons of the grammar and
high schools of Oregon, and we
approve any action which will
have a tendency to keep more
money circulating In the business
circles of the state. However.
we are rrank in saying that tne
printing of textbooks by the state
is not practical, and has never
proven satisfactory in any of
those states in which it has been
tried.
We do not pose as an authority
on the subject, but It has been
our pleasure to read the findings
and opinions of some of the best
authorities in the country on the
subject of free textbooks and the
printing of textbooks by the state
and there is all but a unanimity
of opinion among them that the
former has proven profitable.
while the latter has been demon,
strated to be decidedly unsatis
factory. Unless other states have adopt
ed a plan of printing textbooks
within the past four or fire
months, California is the only
state which has the plan in ef
fect and the experience there has
demonstrated that it is unsatis
factory beyond a doubt. Other
states have tried the plan and af
ter an unpleasant experience dis
carded it.
It Is our opinion. In fact, that
had members of the legislature
been fully advised on the subject
that they would not have gone to
the trouble of authorizing the
committee and the expense of
such an appropriation of $500 to
defray the costs of its investiga
tion. On the other hand the legisla
ture will encounter no difficulty
in effecting & saving on the cost
of textbooks if It will compel dis
tricts to provide them tree to pu
pils. Every state which has
adopted that plan has found It to
be far more economical than the
method which haa always been In
rogue In Oregon and which com

books.
