A union meetinor of the young peo ple's societies of tht city was held at the vi. 12. church last evening, Clyde Williamson presided. Across tne piatiorm were several large nosters. me of which was particularly striking, a large bottle made up from whiskey advertisements in one issue of the Oregonian, the saloon's champ ion. It was a temperance meeting, and A. A. Heist, a bright young man from Portland, did the speaking. Here are some paragraphs: inree years ago only mree states were dry, now nine, and over half the territory in the U. S. is dry. In 1906 eight counties went dry in Oregon, m 1908 there were twenty one. Lincoln said the saloon is a cancer, Gladstone that the liquor traffic is worse than war, famine and pestilence, Roosevelt that we must either control the liquor traffic or it will control us. We must get rid of the saloon or it will threaten the national lite itself. The saloon is the enemy of religion, morals and education. In Chicago there are thirty-nine an archist societies and the meeting place of everyone is a saloon. Shaniko, a saloon town, is the most iniquitous place in the U. s. for its size. How ever poorly enforced prohibi tion is - a good thing, for it greatly reduces drunkenness and crime. In whiskey Medford last year there were 163 arrists for drunkenness to 7 in Ashland, about the same size. In Nevada there are five saloons to every teacher, and in only one other state, New Jersey, are there more saloons than school teachers. Kansas and Maine prohibition states. pay three times as much per capita for education as Illinois, a liquor state, mi , " 1' ' ' I iiic inn. wi.u vutco m .to . partner in the business. There have been more new Methodist churches built in Maine in nine, years than in all other New England states combined. The church grows as the saloon goes. Nsws from Albany's Six Early Trains.

A C0RVALLIS EPISODE In Which an Albany Man Take ?art. Corvallis Gazette-Times: Two married women of this city were fined $10 each this morning for being out after 12 o'clock, a young man of this city paid another $10, and an Al bany man is now xut on $25 cash bail. The parties were picked up on First street last night after their return from Albany and while the men were trying to sober up the women sufficiently to get them home in a fairly presentable condition. Both of the women are the mother of children and one is the wife of a husband having a good reputation in this cily. Tlw other woman is a guest at this home. The young man who put up $10 isn't noted for his Sun day school disposition, and little is known of the Albany sport who put up the $25 bail. He will probably not re turn to stand trial. The women were quite "sassy," but Judge Denman gave them a lecture they may well remember. The husband of one of thn women put up the fine for both of them..
