Supreme Court Holds Home Rule Am-
endment Inoperative In
Dry Counties.
Saloons in a dry county are a vio
lation of the local option' law, the
"o-called Home Rule amendment hav
ing no effect until a municipality vot
es wet at an election called for that
purpose. This Is the gist of the rul
tog of the Supreme court, affirming
the decision of Judge J, W, Knowles
In the caso of E, T, Schleur,
Mr, Schleur was granted a license
by the city cpuncfl of Joseph and
a test ca& was waQe- Juage ivnow
les held that the council had no
authority to grant the license, and
held further that the Home Rule a-
rnendnient would h,ave no effect ' ev
en If V10 clt7 voted wet at a spec
lal city election. . The Supreme court
affirms the ,mahi point, holding the
licenne granted Is illegal but the pub
limbed report of the decision seems
to hold that if a municipality in a
dry county votes, .wet at a. special
el'Wtlou held for that purpose then! it
is exempted fronj the county option
law. , ,-. .,
Only the saloons at Joseph are at
fected ,by the dciilon, the "soft
drink" establishment. In Enterprise,
tbe one at Loatlne and two at
Wallowa operate without licenses
There is a $400 "soft drink" license
la Enterprise that used tq be enforced
but has pq been Ifttejy.

INLAND EMPIRE'S PRIDE.
In another column 'is found the an
nouncement of the Hot Lake Sanato
rlum, calling attention to the won
derful medicinal qualities of the wat
ter flowing from the great boiling
mineral spring.
The Hot Lake Sanatorium is a
home Institution, owned and managed
by an Oregon man. It consumes Ore
gon products purchased! from Ore
gon dealers and should receive Ore
gon patronage.
The Hot Lake Sanatorium Is one
of the wonder places of the West
and one of Oregon's greatest natur
al advertisers. The thousands of pa-
tlents who have been cured at this
great health restoring Institution, re
turning to their homesi throughout the
Middle West, the East and our own
Northwest, have done as much if
not more to bring Oregon, and espec
ially the Inland Empire, to the at
tention of thinking and inquiring peo
ple than any one inotltution or nat
ural feature In this great state of
ours." The citizens of Eastern Ore
gon have reason to speak with pride
of the Hot Lake Sanatorium.
