An important conference was had at
Lebanon yesterday over the matter of
water from the paper mill, about
which Bome of the people of Lebanon
have been doing soma vociferous kick
ing and numerous law suits have been
pending, causing an immense sight of
trouble to the papermill, which has
been the making of Lebanon more than
all other things combined. It looks as
if the people there had been trying to
kill the hen that laid the golden egg.

FOR A DRY
OREGON.
A union meetinor of the young peo

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.

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..

The Douglas county republican as-

J ticket named so the republican voters
of the county won't have anything to
do but follow suit. B. L. Eddy caused
a sensation by introducing a resolution
: providing - that no county ticket be

the old caucus system and ring rule, de
claring that no faction has a right to
call a caucus and name a slate. The
