The liquor traffic question will be up
for the consideration of the people
at the June election and we believe
that an error is being made in attempt
ing to regulate the business by closing
the saloon. V(e believe that it would
be much better to license a saloon and
control it than have liquor shipped into
the community in jugs and passed a
round indiscriminately. If prohibition
or local option would prohibit, it would
be different, but you cannot stop the
use of it by prohibiting the sale of it in
a .few small towns. We are oi the
opinion that city council should, if they j
have the power, prohibit the use of ;
screens, curtains, blinds or painted
windows in the front of the bar-room.
Some who now frequent saloons would
not care to have their wives, children,
mother, sister or sweetheart see them
at the bar. The average saloon man
is not as black as he is painted, we do
not know of any who would make any
'objection to such an arrangement, they
all seem to take pride in conducting a
quiet orderly house. Another thing -we
believe is that churches and kindred
societies should unite in establishing
and maintaining a public rest room,
where all classes may be made to feel
at home, where the farmer and his
family may go for a short rest before
starting home, or a place to leave
wraps and bundles while they are shop
ping. Take the money that is now
being used to fight the saloon and use
it to fit up and maintain a place that
will be more attractive to the young
man than the saloon, make the church
more homelike, have it well lit and as
comfortable as possible. The Wheat
field Is open for discussion on this
question and believes that the p'eople
desire mere light on the subject.
Walter 0. Hill, Republican candi
date for nomination as County Clerk,
was a resident of Lexington before
receiving the appointment as Deputy
Sheriff of Morrow county. He has
resided in Morrow county twenty-two
years, is a young man of strictly temp
erate habits and has a good business
education The position he has held
for the past four years has enabled
him to become well acquainted with
the duties of the County Clerk and he
is in ever way qualified to take charge
of the Clerk's office.
Last Sundays' Journal contained an
article from Heppner, stating that A.
K. Fuller was the saloonmens' candl
date for Sheriff. Mr Fuller said at
the time he announced himself that he
would enforce the laws impartially.
The Wheatfield makes this statement
to correct the error made by the Hep
pner correspondent of The Journal.
