Not all of Oregon's prohibition
towns beiug rneutioned in last week's
paper, I wisu to call attention to a
tew more. St Jolius is still dry de
spite the efforts of the liquor men to
have it otherwise. The Pacific Search
light says, "Prohibition prohibits in
some instances. The members of the
Corvallis club think so. Hood River
'blind piggers' are thinkiug serious
ly about the prospect of the law mean
ing something aud a persisteut viola
tor at Amity saw his Popes go glim
mering in the face of the Prohibition
law. Twenty-five saloon keepers in
Coog wondered what would oome uext
when they "were closed op." Mr. El
more of- Brownsville, a staunch
prohibitionist, la quoted as saying,
'Eight years ago Brownsville banished
the saloon. The city was in debt
and ill improved. Today ,with a five
mill tax the oity has its own lighting
and water facilities, is oat of debt
and has 500 In the treasury." The
mayor of Newburg iu an artiole iu
the Pacific Advocate makes some fine
points for prohibition. He Baya"We
are proud of onr city and I do think
we have a right to be. I was asked to
tell how we planned our campaign to
get rid of the saloons and bow we
carried the election. In the first
place we neveV had any saloons to get
rid of so have been saved that trouble.
Today we would invite yoo to come
to as clean a town as the suu chines
on, aud sae for yourself what a tou
without revenue from saloons is like.
I challenge 00111 arisou with any
saloon town iu any stato in the Uniou.
We have no druukard's families to
support with city funds. Our mer
chants are happy aud prosperous.
Our homes are happy, too. We are
told that our street improvements
for the last year are ahead of any
other town of our size in the state,
Oar people an not asleep on the tem
perance question,. We vote uot otily
to keep the curse out of our own fair
city, but to drive it from the state
and uaiiou as well." Is it any wou
ner that Newborn is called the
" white city?"
We. hope that in no far distant
future oar own fair city may throw
off the curse of the licensed saloon.
that it limy be made a safer, cleaner
placo, th it thn motley now spent for
that which degrades and destroys
body and soul may hi turned into
1 gitiuiate channels. A good location
fine climate aud beautitul scenery is
ours aud may Grants Pass be known
far and near for its energy and its
hint) moral aud intellectual standards.
It ii not a question as to whether
prohibition will prohibit. but
whether there is anyone buck of the
law to see that it is enforced. " And
now au eiectiou wil1 soon be on hand
iu this county and slate, may the
voters see to it that men are elected
to office who will enforce the laws,
and may they have reason to feel that
behind them is h public ceutiment
backing them od In the performance
of every duty. And may those elected
be men conscientious iu taking their
oath of office and may those oaths be

I leave to society a rained character
