Quote tlic Orcgouiau to Prove tlie Unprofitableness of a City Follow ing the Course That Pu-r Hum Al ways Heretofore Advised Corres pondent Mentions Variable Weather in tlie Valley of Juekson County Cloudburst and lliuvy Hull. Eagle Point, Jackson County, June 10. This valley Is completely encir cled by mountains, and our rains and storms are quite local In character. Jacksonville seems to be the storm center, with Medford a clone second. A few days ago they had a young cloudburst over there, attended with considerable loss of life (chickens), and a brink movement in high-priced real estate; but I am pleased to state the tendency of the real estate was downward. On the high ridge or divide between Jacksonville and Applegate creek, there was a tremendous hailstorm. A man who passed that way told me the hall stones were as large as marbles, and laid eight inches deep on a level, and the forest trees were nearly strip ped of their leaves. I was surprised to see In an editorial In a recent Portland Oregonian, that they had made the astounding discov ery that the license from the saloons did not pay the expense brought about by the traffic. Temperance people have been preaching this for yours, but Scott has hooted at their figures, and stood for the saloons first, last, and all the time; the more the better. ' The city could not meet her running expenses without, and must soon go to the poorhouse. Why, under Mayor Williams the city col lected more than $80,000 from sa loons, gamblers and prostitutes; long live Williams. locket Nerve Affects Vision. It seems there has been a "change come over the spirit of his dreams," and what has produced It? It is curi ous how the' pocket nerve effects the vision. A little twinge of that nerve frequently gives one a rery altered point of view. The Oregonian knows, as every one else who thinks must know, that if it goes out over this broad land of ours, that every man, woman and child who passes In or out of the fair, must pass through a long lane, lined on each side with saloons and drunken rowdies, thieves, pick pockets, pimps, prostitutes and such like Ilk, the usual and natural con comitant of the saloon, hundreds, If not thousands of self-respecting peo ple will stay away, to the great finan cial detriment of the fair, not to say anything of the moral aspect It will reach farther and affect the immigra tion. Many people In the East who look upon the people here as hardly civil ized and still In the breech clout and moccasin period, and the fact that the metropolis of the state would allow such a state of affairs to exist, and more, to brazenly flaunt It In the faces of the visiting public, would go far to prove their opinion not far astray. Oregonian Inconsistent. ' The Oregonian Is an able paper, but i like some other able people, not al- j ways consistent. In the editorial re-, ferred to It says the council has out- j raged the decent part of the commu-l nity by licensing these saloons, besides: the fact that the extra cost of pro-; teetlng life and property brought I about by these saloons, will more than ! eat up all revenue derived from them; i but In a later Issue It says the saloon! business Is a "legitimate" business, I just as much so as any other busi ness, "but liable to abuse and should i be kept back from public view." The quotations are mine.) ' Put the two staements together and what have you? First, that saloon . licenses do not pay the cost engen-j dered by the saloon, that they endan ger life and property and outrage all moral decency, but second, all this Is legitimate and proper If It is done on( a back street! i Who Made IVirtland Democratic? ! Scott's arfguments sometimes sound! as though he was short of material. I During the gubernatorial campaign he said: "What will Roosevelt think. If a democratic governor Is elected?"; I am a republican? I am a republl-i can, and always have been, and I ad-j mire Roosevelt very much; but I do! not expect to ask him how I shall I vote, neither do I care what he thinks I about it; besides, who made it possi-l ble to elect a democratic governor In j Oregon? Tlie same rotten and cor-i rupt ring which has made It possible to elect a democratic mayor In Port land. Time was once, within my own memory, when a man considered It an honor to say, "I vote her straight, even If I know there Is a horse thief on it." But men are becoming more intelligent and are learning that a mere name neither leads the country to heaven or destruction. I notice that some gambler In your city said Pendleton would be glad to get them back, and could not get along without them. If Pendleton, 1 with all the resources back of her, I has reached that point where her ex-j istence depends on the money wrung from the gambler and the prostitute, then the sooner she hides her fester ing carcass In oblivion, away from the view of a decent world, the better. I But that Is all bosh. Towns In this ; valley without one-half the natural I resources of Pendleton, are existing without the saloon or the gambler, or the public houses of prostitution and so can Pendleton. If all the moral elements in Pendle ton would make common cause, lay aside for the time being, their names and creeds, and stand solidly for a clean, moral town, they could have it; but some are afraid of hurting their business, some of their political pros pects, some are so prejudicial against some other organization they would rather the whole place would go to the bow-wows than to work in the same harness. Personally, this matter does not trouble me. Through Christian par ents I Inherited clean blood with no craving for Intoxicants, and it is no trouble for me to keep out of the sa loons, and my boy does not seem dis posed that way; but for the sake of the boys and the men who have the poison in their blood, and for the sake of the women and children who are the helpless victims of the traffic, whatever Influence I may have will be on the side of clean Christian homes. I am glad to see one paper which has the courage to stand up for pure homes and decent public morals. L. H. LEE. PIONEERS OF OREGON. Annual Reunion to Be Held In Port land This Week. Portland, June 13. Pioneers from All parts of the state will gather in this city next Thursday for the annu al reunion and banquet of the Ore gon Pioneer society. Members of the society are request ed to secure their badges of Secre tary George H. Himes, at Pioneer headquarters In the rooms of the Or egon Historical society In the city hall and assemble at the Armory at 2 o'clock sharp Thursday afternoon. Joseph Buchtel, grand marshal, as sisted by aids and the women's re ception committee, will receive the members and conduct them to one of the small halls in the Armory, where literary exercises will take place. The souvenir pioneer badge em braces three pivotal Ideas on which the Pacific coast states were founded. The picture of Captain Robert Gray emphasizes his discovery of the Co lumbia river in 1792; the portraits of Lewis and Clark, the explorers, in 1805, and a picture of a primitive home represented by a log cabin and ox teams, show the formative period between 1811 and 1859. To Keep Sheep Out of Grant. Tuesday a meeting of the citizens was held in Granite at which the ques tion of keeping sheep and cattle out of the district was discussed. It was decided to hire a man to post notices warning stockmen of the position taken by the residents and to also ride the lines for a short time. A subscription list was also started to raise funds to pay the ex penses of the organization. It has been quite liberally responded to so far, but more' funds will be required and it Is hoped those Interested will be on hand with their proportion. So far there are at least 100 signa tures on the paper wishing the large bands of stock to be kept out of the territory mentioned In the notices. Granite Gem. The state of education In Russia may be judged from the fact that there is only one village school for every 12,000 persons. CTS o n oodo A BEVERAGE OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY.
