A atU ilooo L m |« 0 Interrogati Thoee Who Want to Go The following letter has been mailed by the Anti-Saloon League to all candidates for the legisla ture: Believing that every candidate for public office desires to be frank and open with the public regarding his position on vital questions which are likely to come before the coming session of the State Legislature, we are asking every candidate for the Senate and House ot Representa tives in the coming primary to reply, for publication, to the fol lowing questions: 1. What is your occupation? 2. The dry law now forbids the sale of any beverage contain ing so much as one-half o f one per cent of alcohol by volume. Will you vote against all at tempts to increase this percent age? 3. The present law permits druggists to sell ethyl alcohol only, and in amounts not to ex ceed tw o quarts in 28 successive days, to any one person or fami ly.- Will you vote against all attempts to permit the sale of other uncora pounded intoxi cants, or to increase the amount of pure ethyl alcohol - permitted to be sold to any one person within any 28 successive days, unless Jupon the written state ment o f a reputable licensed and regularly practicing physician that a greater amount is neces sary for external use or applica tion only? 4. The present law forbids the solicitation of liquor orders by mail. Owing to the common rule o f law which deems a sale to be made where delivery is made to the common carrier, we are unable to reach the mail order solicitors who are violat ing this law. The U. S. Supreme Court has granted relief to West Virginia, basing their decision on the following words which ap pear in the W. Va. law and not in ours: "In case of a sale in which a shipment or delivery is made by common carrier, the sale thereof shall be deemed to be made in the county wherin the delivery thereof is made by such carrier to the consignee.” Will you put these words into the Oregon law and relieve Ore gon mothers, wives, sisters and daughters from the insulting solicitation by mail for liquor orders? (This does not abridge the right to send for and receive liquor, but would stop mail solicitation.) 5. Will you vote to require that druggists, when selling alcohol not denatured and not medicinally compounded, sell on ly to persons with whom they are personally acquainted, or who are vouched for in writing by some reliable person who is known to the druggist, which voucher shall be filed with the purchaser's affidavit in the coun ty clerk’s office; and forbidding the sale by druggists when they know or have reason to believe that the alcohol so ordered or sought to be purchased is in tended to be used in violation of or evasion of the law? 6. Will you vote for g meas ure forbidding the keeping or storing of intoxicating liquors in any store or other place o f busi ness or of public resort, or in any public storage house or ware house, except that unaccepted shipments of Kquor in the custo i. Will you vote for a meas ure empowering justices o f the peace and requiring them, when complaint is made by a reput able citizen or citizens, to sum mon witnesses before them; to place such witnesses under oath and question them regarding their knowledge o f liquor sales and liquor nuisances; reduce their testimony to, writing, if the evidence adduced seems to war rant prosecution; require said witnesses to sign their testimony, and to forward such testimony to the district attorney; and'em powering the justice of the peace, at his discretion, to require the witnesses to give bond or recog nizance for their appearance to testify before the grand jury, or t o give testimony in the trial be fore the said justice or other magistrate as the district at torney may elect, but such bond or recognizance not to run be yond the close of the next regular session o f circuit court, unless it shall be renewed at the request of the said district attorney? (This would enable the gather ing o f evidence and the prepara tion for prosecution in remote districts of a county before material evidence could be de stroyed, witnesses disappear, or an alibi be concocted by the wit nesses in collusion. This would reduce the costs o f the district attorney's office to the taxpay ers, and largely do away with the need tor employment of detectives.) , . w 8. Will yon vote for a mea ure permitting any person or organization, in the dame ot the state, either through the district attorney or by private attorney, to bring • action at the costs of the state for abatement ot liquor nuisance? (This is the law which finally made prohibition a real success in Kansas.) Bach o f the above proposed laws is offered for the purpose ot meeting c o n c r e t e situations which hare arisen and still exist here in Oregon. All o f them have been tested and have proven successful in other states where they are already in force. In publishing the replies to the above questions we shall list them as "Yes,’ *'-"No,” and "Re fuses to answer.” Anti-Saloon League o f Oregon, By R. P. Hutton, State Supt. U. OF 0 .

MR a tattler is apt to be a liar. Fair play demands evidence-- she’s entitled to a hearing before a sneering.
