THE GAZETTE-TIMES, HEPPXEB, ORE.. THVRSDAY, SEPT. 10, 1014 page SEVEX WATCH THIS PAPER FOR THE TRUTH ABOUT PROHIBITION Here is the exact issue that confronts you The prohibitionists ask you to adopt an amend ment to the State Constitution to prohibit the manufacture and sale of alcoholic beverages, except for medical, mechanical and sacra mental uses. i The adoption of this amendment means the entire wiping out of the present splendid home rule and local option laws. Thereafter the regulation and control of the liquor traffic in Oregon would pass from cities and towns and be retained exclusively by the state. Note carefully (here is no mention of prohibiting "distribu Hon," "transportation" or "use" of alcoholic beverages. Only of manufacture and tale. Distribution, transpor tation and use intentionally were left out by the prohibi tionists. Shipment of liquors into the state, or through the state, or drinking of liquors within the slate would not be prohibited by the amendment. Washington, Idaho and California naturally would immedi ately begin shipping liquor into Oregon and throughout Oregon. The saloon, where it now exists, would merely have given away to the "blind pigger." "bootlegger" and "moonshiner." All cities and towns now either wet or dry would be at the mercy of the state police authorities and state law makers. Present "dry" cities and towns would realize that they had come nearer to voting themselves "wet" than they now are under the splendid home rule and local option laws. If the state authorities were derelict or failed to enforce the law, as they are in Kansas and Maine, the cities and towns would realize that they had voted away their present dirtct control and regulation of the liquor traffic. These articles will show later that Kansas and Maine authorities are derelict and do fail to enforce the law. To undo the mistake Oregon would have to repeal a constitutional amendment and not a mere law a very difficult undertaking. Deceit and per jury in securing liquor illegally would have been substituted for what today is a steadily improving, healthier public opinion regarding true temperance, and true temperance would have been done an irreparable injury requiring many years to recover from. Kansas is pointed to by prohibitionists as the model prohibi tion state. They want Oregon to become a Kansas. Watch these articles with a fair, open mind and learn what thirty three years of prohibition law has done for Kansas without prohibiting or advancing true temperance. All figures will be taken from latest United States Government Reports . N. B. Prohibitionists are spreading the opinion that, if the proposed amendment is defeated, the present dry towns and cities will become wet again. This POSITIVELY IS NOT SO. The present home rule and local option laws would remain just as they now are. VOTE 333 X NO AGAINST PROHIBITION Paid Advt rtittmtnt Ttxpnycn' ind Waje Ernrn' League, Portland, Oregon The G.-T.
