REDDY BILL IS
LIKE HOME ILL
la tili eddrs lK rrlday night,
Hon. A. 8. HulU said that the homo
rulo bill was tot Hk Iho '"Ruddy"
bill. 11 this statement he condemns
(tin lleddy bill. That Is good. Hut in
so doltiK be also condemn tlm homo
rulo bill. Tho only real difference
between the two bills lb In tiat the
homu rulo bill confines Itself to the
liquor question and the lleddy bill
took In gambling, thesier. horse
rmrliiK. etc On the liquor question
they are alike In thought and effect.
In order to mislead the peolpe an
to thu real Intent of the bill he tried
to show Hint It did not do away with
the JiirUdli Hon of the stale by quot
liiK lb" phrase, "tMibJwt to the con
stitution and criminal laws of the
state of Oregon. Hut he failed to go
fnriher. "and the escluslve" note
Unit, word "exclusive" "power to li
cense, regulate, control or to suppress
or prohibit, the sale of Intoxicating
liquors therein li vented In such uiu
nlclpa'lty." The home rule bill gives the state
absolutely no power over the liquor
traffic In the city and that nieana of
the atate. Vote down thla bill. It !
un-American. Vote 329 X NO.

cloven o'clock by calling on her with'
well filled baskets. A bounteous din

It's the World's Bast
No one has ever made a salve, oint
ment or balm to compare with) Buck
len's Arnica Salve. It's the one per
fect healer of Cuts, Corns, Burns,
Bruises, Sores, Scalds, Boila, Ulcers,
Eczema, Salt Rheum. For Sore Eyes,
Cold Sores, Chapped Hands, or
Ail Iiiwh snould be obeyed. Some
le.ws should be appealed or amended
The law creating new counties Is un
faJr as voters are asked to create now
counties where they cannot know
the local oondltlona and might form a
new county where four-fifths or the
residents of the old county are op-
poiied to It.
What do the votera of Clasop know
of the needs of Grant, Malheur,
Crook, UmntlllH. Douglas, Lane, Wash
ington. Clackamas and Multnomah
They could vote Just as Intelligently
for tho county officers in these coun
ties aa for their division or the chang
lug of the boundaries.
There is strong opposition to dl
vision in all the counties mentioned
and it would seem to be but Justice
that these localities should settle their
own local differences.
You will have the privilege of vot
ing for a bin to leave the function of
new couictles and municipalities to the
districts interestd. As between man
and man, would not this plan be the
more1 eaudtable?
Thm averaae voter will certainly
take this view of it. In all fairness
now, will not your conscience and
en of right tell you to vote against
All division and vote "Yes X 3C2,"
which will relieve you of the tnsk of
untitle- for measures with which you
can not be familiar.
