While the Local Option people are pushing to carry Salem dry, they have to fight to hold the counties they carri ed two years ago. In counties like Linn and Lane there is a reaction slowly setting in against the conditions produced by prohibition. That there is a great amount of liquor shipped into I.inn and Lane counties, no one will deny, and that in itself would prove nothing to an advocate of Local Option. To an advocate of License, it means loss o f revenues to city and county, and no marked de crease of crime. Hut there is another side, and that is positive testimony of the demoralization of the younger por tions of the community by illicit sales of liquor, arid with no restraint what ever ot the vice and abuses connected with illegal traliic. It is well known tnat hundreds of boys get liquor at Eugene. The soft drink shops sell it, and the worst kind of stuff. Young people get liquor, and go off to the country together, and get gloriously drunk. That is the statement of a very prominent citizen of Eugene, and well known at Salem, A person of the , r , ,1 in the res- highest character, engagtd res cue work, and juvenile court work of that city, in speaking of affairs in Lane county, said: “ We have more cases of depravity due to drunkenness now in six months than we had formerly in a j year. We have a case right now of a married man who took a lot of young people, and a lot of liquor that was j shipped in, and went out to a house in the country, and kept them all night, 1 including two voung girls, and he is in jail for it. In the railroad and logging camps, the present conditions are far from satisfactory. With licensed sa loons some of the men came in once a j month, and got drunk for a day or two, and then returned. Now they ship the stuff out to the camp, by the barrel, and the whole camp gets drunk, and | sometimes stays so for a week, and the whole camp sulfers for it. The disorders (lowing from such a system are infinitely greater than under the old wav when there was not promiscu ous distribution.” —Salem Capital Jour nal Republican Ticket.
