Oflioe with Coron-Booth IUrdwure Comply 44.4 TEMPERANCE COLUMN. la a recent meeting of the Western Hotel Men's Association papers were read in which the writers denounced the prohibition laws, declaring theni Inoperative, demoralizing in effect upon business, etc., and citing Pendleton as an awful example of what prohibition would do for a town. It was stated that Pendleton had lost 1,500 inhabitants since the law went Into effect and that there were many vacant houses as a result of the law. Portland, Maine and Portland, Ore., were compared In their growth as illustrating the ef fect of the wet and dry policies. Kan sas was also made to stand as an illustration of the failure of the law to accomplish the Intended purpose. Some hot stuff has come out In reply. The following will Berve to! throw light upon the reasons for the attitude of the hotel men: PORTLAND, Oct. 18. (To the Editor.) The writer desires to reply to some of the assertions made by M. C. Dickinson, of this city, in his address to the Western Hotel Men's Association at San Francisco.. In his opening statement, Mr. Dickinson makes assertions about prohibition ruining business, that it does not prohibit, etc. These state ments are old as the eternal hills and lie should have put them In Quotation marks, because they have passed the lips of many a worshipper at the shrine of Bacchus before they reached our learned friend. I take for granted that the state ments made concerning the popula tion of Portland, Me., and Portland, Ore., are correct. It is the poorest sort of login to asume that because Portland, Me., now has a population of 62,000 souls and Portland, Ore., 200,000 that prohibition Is respon sible for the same. I could say with equally good logic that Portland, Or., is not as large as Chicago, be cause Chicago has 7000 saloons and poor little Portland has but 400. - Wyoming Is perhaps the most typi cal state in the Union. It has a pop ulation of 92.000. The author, be ing a prohibitionist, might assert that the reason Wyoming has no more people is because it is a license state. This would bo equally as truthful as the statement that pro hibition has kept Portland, Me., be low the 100,000 mark. '"-.M'tl 1'- V Vv If Gaddis & Dixon FENCE MEN" The following statement of facts is taken from the American ProhlM5 tion Year Book: "In Maine the total commitments for drunkenness In 1896 were 3049. In 1906 they were 19 SO. On the other hand, the com mitments for liquor selling In 1S96 were 179. In 1906 they were 429. Better law enforcement In 1850 the per capita wealth of Maine was $210. In 1900 it was $922. Today Maine is the only state In the Union which j has more bank depositors than voters. She has 100,000 more de positors than the great whiskey state of Ohio. Maine has 49 clear home owners out of every 100 families. This record cannot be found In any license state. In the United States there Is a per capita "net county debt of $2.t0. Maine has $1.27." Mr. Dickinson says that liquor is shipped Into Kansas. I cannot deny that statement that some liquor comes Into that state In that manner. The people of Kansas are not re sponsible for such a condition, but our government, of whjch we are a part, is to blame. I quote from J. E. Hurley, superintendent of the Santa Fe system: "I consider the prohibition law of Kansas as worth more to the railroad than any other one thing. We have the most ef ficient, capable, well-educated class of men in the rialroad business In Kansas to be found anywhere In the world." Some statements are made about Pendleton, Ore., that I cannot deny, because I have not the facts before me, nor It it possible to obtain them on so short a notice. Probably pro hibition has reduced the receipts of tho Hotel Pendleton. There was a bar In connection before the town went. dry. No wonder the receipts fall off. . The man who runs the Quelle restaurant says that his busi ness has diminished $5000 since the city of Pendleton voted out saloons. Probably this Is true, because it Is hard to run a saloon In a dry town. Tho assertion that there are 1500 less people in Pendleton since It went dry, cannot be verified. Of course the gnmbler, the "bum," the bartender and the prostitute have sought wetter climes than dry Pendleton. In their places there are coining home-builders. The writer was in Pendleton a short time ago, and found It far from being a dead town. He saw an Immense brick woolen mill in course of construction, streets were being paved, and many Fence OREGON subdivisions were being laid U la easy to Bee why Mr. Dickin son has such a strong opposition to prohibition. It would not permit him to sell liquor in his hotel. I de sire to ask him ne question. How can the liquor business, which Im poverishes the Individual, benefit and build up a city or community? W. E. CRITCHLOW, ' Secretary Oregon Prohibition Committee. PENDLETON, Or., Oct. 18. (To I the Editor.) In the Oregonian's re port of the Western Hotel Men's convention in last Saturday's issue, I find some peculiar statements in regard to this town. I moved my family of nine to this place in the early part of last win ter for better school privileges, and on account of its being a dry town. In canvassing for a house I certainly did not find the halt of 200 vacant houses, and at present many of those I did find are occupied. As to the population decreasing, how is it that the school census does not show this fact? Could 1500 people be taken from us without a noticeable effect on the number of children? I hear our Western hotel men quoting two of Pendleton's hotel men as authorities on conditions here. But these men are now under Indictment by the' grand Jury for violation of the law a law which they claim is inoperative and pro duces worse conditions than no re strictions. It looks to me that tho Western Hotel Men's convention was playing the same role as In days gone when men In a crowd called "Look out for pickpockets," the purpose being to draw men's hands to the vi cinity of their cash and thereby fa cilitating tho pickpockets annexa tion of the same. Other allegations raised against Pendleton are new to me, and there is little doubt they are as valueless against us, as temperance people, as those noticed to bo unworthy. The "wets" are trying hard to make the nasty thing look pretty, but with little success Judging from the meeting Saturday evening. Pendleton Is al right. We know what we've got and propose to keep it. The kind of prosperity that comes with saloons we can do with out. H. B. MORTON. In the attitude of the Hotel Men's Association it may be that tho fol lowing would apply: , "No man e'er felt the halter draw, With good opinion of the luw."

I What makes made with the highest carbon the same as the makers ot American fence put into its piano wire? Or should it be a soft wire such as they put into their weaving wire that is sold to manufacturers of wire cloth? Neither it should be a medium wire that many years experience has shown to be exactly right for the purpose. The American Steel & Wire Co. makes every kind of wire that is used, beginning with its own mines, through its own furnaces and steel and wire mills and they know what is the right kind of steel to use for a fence.
