History repeats itself. The seeds of great reform movements lie dor mant for epochs, and suddenly blaze out into conflagrations. After the ignorance and superstition of the dark ages came the Renaissance, After centuries of world domina tion by the holy Roman Empire, came Luther and the Reformation. After a long period of rule by di- viue right, came the American rev olution and constitutional govern ment. It is not impossible that this country is on the verge of a new revolution. It may not compare in extent to other historic epochs, and yet if it should materialize import ant economic phenomena would he presented. Here is the wave of urohibition in the south. It has crossed the Ohio river, and invaded the state of Illi nois. Seven counties iu the south ern tier have gone totally dry, oblit erating the bnsiness of several hun dred saloonH. The liquor men are described as ‘terrified,’’ and raising a great sum to fight the spread of the movement. Towns are dry where the suggestion of prohibition has been a thing to scoff at. It looks as if the idea had become epi demic, and is destined to embrace the whole country. It spreads most in states where it hus been most tried. Permanency there seems scheduled, and if so, a future and kindred permanency seems as sured for other sections and other states. The south wants the traffic barred because it is alleged to be the cause of social crimes by negroes. On their own initiative and for their own safety, great railroads, indus trial and commercial enterprises have established a prohibition of their own among their employes. Employers in the great enterprises and more and more in smaller ones refuse employment to man with the drink habit. In these days of trav eling devices that oblilrrate distance and baffle time, human life is ever in jeopardy and cannot be entrust ed to employes with muddled brains. The engineers of a lightening ex press, with its precious load of hu man freight, must not be drunk. The man who has the habit is learn ing fast that fewer and fewer places are open to him, and that in time nobody will want him. The spirit of a commercial and industrial age is working havoc with the liquor traffic has to fight is not the pro hibition propaganda alone, but American common sense.— Oregon Journal. Klamath Falls, Or., Dec. 9,— Hen ry Mann of .Salem, Oregon, last week shot and killed an animal that has long been puzzling hunters north of the upper Klamath lake. For the past seven years tracks have keen found in the country around the big springs on the Klamath Indian reservation that were sup. posed to be those of a big buck. The tracks were of a peculiar char acter and easily distinguished from other tracks. However, when shot the animal proved to be a sort of boar. It weighed over 500 pounds and had tusks 10 inches long. The hair was long and coarse and the skin around the head was thick aDd wrinkled. The tail was long and bushy, resembling a cow’s tail. The skin, when taken from the animal, weighed 110 pounds. From the peculiar characteristics of the animal, it is supposed that it must have escaped from some zoo or menagerie years ago and has been roaming in that region since. J. C. Moomaw. Master, I Arrive» Portland Notes The statement of the National banks o f Portland on Dec. 3rd proved that they had ample cash, more than the most enthusiastic had anticipated, The same is true of banks throughout the State. “ 80 chances to win—you can’ t lose’’ is the slogan of the Portland commercial Club in its final work connected with $5000 prize contest closing Dec. 31st. People in gen eral seem engrossed with the finan cial conditions, and their neglect makes the chances of those who do compete even more pronounced.

Congress is to Hear About ''Canned Music ” New York, Dec. 21.— What John Philip Sousa once called ‘‘canned musio” will again be a subject for discussion in Congress this year. A delegation of composers will go to Washington next week to protest against the copyright bill introduced the other day by Congressman Cour ier. If this bill becomes a law, the use of music for phonographic rec ords and perforated rolls for mech anical piano players will not be con sidered an infringement of copy right. Composers declare that the enactment of this law would be a direht blow to the art, as it will rob a composer of the right to the pro duct of his own brain. The dele gation which will go to Washing ton will include Victor Herbert, John Philip Sousa, John Edward, A. Baldwin Sloam, Henry Blossom, George Hobart and Glen Macdon- ough.
