And we hope it is. If Hill and Hntrimntt have a desire to fifiht each other in a railroad building race into Central Oregon, we hope the opportunity will afford them "scrapping" to their hearts desire. With both of them racing for the same goal, it is all the more certain that Central Oregon will have its long-delayed railroad. Someone believed by all to be Hill has thrown construction crews into the Deschutes canyon to build a railroad over the Oregon Trunk Line surveys. With Hnr riman crews already at work in the same canyon, the people are very apt to see quite an interesting struggle for the next few months. Tactics that were emptoyed in building the North Bank road will probably be emptoyed on the Des chutes by these bitter rivals. That mcens a fight to the finish. As was stated to The Bulletin several months ago by a man prominent in the industrial life ot Central Ore gon, "You will witness one of the greatest fights in railroad building, in the. Deschutes canyon, that has ever been waged in the Northwest." Another important feature of this railroad struggle is that it un doubtedly assures a railroad across tbe state from north to south. There will be no stopping at some halfway point, with another weary wait for the districts lying beyond. The towns that have been building hopes on becoming a railroad termi nal and consequently becoming quite a trade center will be disap pointed. Hill wants a road east of the Cascades from tbe Columbia to California San Francisco is the point at which he is aiming. With that as hw generally admitted ob ject, is it probable that Harriman will sit quietly by and let Hill build through this section and secure tbe traffic? Not at all. He will push his line across the state with never a stop. John Porter says: "We expect a fight that will make new history in railroad construction." And Johnson Porter quietly re marks: "If there is a race, we ex pect to win of course." With this sentioent prevailing there will be a fight to tbe finish and a race from one side of the state to tbe other. And the people of Central Oregon will stand by and snout, Sic em. The Liquor Question. The letter printed in last week's Bulletin and signed "A Heart Broken Mother" stirred up no small degree of comment in Bend. An appeal such as was uttered in that letter always elicits the sym pathy of mankind an appeal from a mother worried to distraction over tbe waywardness of a son. The letter aroused considerable sur prise as well as comment. The mother who wrote the letter undoubtedly knows whereof she speaks. It is her bounden duty to go to tbe proper officials and lay her evidence before them. Her duty to her son as well as to the comrsunity demands this. The officials in Bend are ready and will ing to do their duty, but they can not proceed without evidence. Give them the evidence and this mother can rest assured the law- will be enforced. Deputy Sheriff Millard Triplett stated to The Bui letin that he would certainly per form his duty if this mother or any one else would, at any time, lay be fore hita evidence that liquor is be ing eeld illegally. If a person does not wish his name used in con- nectlon with the affair, Mr. Trip lett states he will sec thnt the name of the jicrson giving the evidence is kept secret. But au officer must have evidence before he can pro ceed, and it is often most difficult for him to oblaiu it for the very reason that the matt who is violat ing tbe law is always more than caution when nn officer is around. And it is also very difficult to get a man to inform ou another. Mothers, as well ns others, who write Unsigued letters to officers of the law stating this or that, make a mistake. It seldom accomplishes any good. The wiser p'on is to go to the officer, give him your cvl deuce it you have any, or state your suspicions if they arc strong, and thm he, will have some grounds on which to proceed ngainst the law-breaker, or on which to conduct an investigation. If this mother can prove anything, or if she knows that liquor is be ing sold, she should by all mcaus confer with the proper officers. The Bulletin aims to keep its eyes open and furthermore it has made careful inquiry regarding this question of the illegal sale of liquor. It is our opinion as well as the opinion of all those with whom we have talked, that Bend has at the present time as near ac tual prohibition as it is possible to secure. It is most improbable that liquor is being sold illegally by any business couccrn in the town. This is generally conceded by those who ought to know.

Call and see for yourself El. A. SATHER ONLY AN AD-READER can WISELY MANAGE Household Finances THE ADS. make "manogement" of "money matters" in the home POS SIBLE. The wife who always studies tbe ads. is working in business partnership with tl husband who, sup posedly, has to "know tbinjrs" in order to EARN the money. On her part, the wife comes to know values, and prices, and where and when and how to buy and such knowledge, such education, comes chiefly through reading and an swering ads. "Household Prosperity" Is assured If the wife makes ad reading a part of her daily routine. amount of liquor comes into the town probably every week, carried in from Slmniko, and ordered in by individuals. Most of this is taken to the individual's home for home consumption, Some of it is used for treating. If any of the boys of the town have been secur ing liquor, it is undoubtedly by this means. While there may be a little "boot-legging," it is the com mou remark that this has been al most entirely stopped during the past few months. It would be most difficult to stop the liuporta tiou of liquor for private use. The l'rineville Review cites this mother's letter as proof of the in efficacy of wohibitiou. It is doubtful if the most ardent prohi bitionist ever believed for a moment that prohibition would-absolutely stop all diunkcuncss. Hut it is believed that it lessens that evil, ami hence the anti-saloon man chooses to vote out the saloon. There is certainly much less drunk- cnnc&i in Bend now than wbcu the saloons were running wide open, aud the ladies of the town cuu pass along the streets without fearol having a drunken, foul mouthed fool stagger out of a door and insult them as they pass by There is not only less drunkenness but there is just as much, if not more, business than under the old condition. The town hasn't been killed by any means. There is one sure test as to the efficacy of prohibition in Bend. That is, how would the citizens WAGONS AND BUGGIES MOWERS AND RAKES BINDERS AND TWINE BARBED WIRE CHICKEN NETTING Uaa vote today 011 the question If they had the opportunity?
