Hnrry Lindsay, cashier of the Ccn
"txal Point tSato bank, hns ro turned
Srom a Bucconsful hunting trip on
rapper Kogno rlvor, whoro ho wns nc
vcompanlod by P. S. Torroy nnd D. F.
Ilcldol of Mcdford. Mr. Lindsay
tya ho wont on tho trip to sco Tor
mny mnko good on some of his mild
et hunting Btorlosj Torroy says ho
want to give Llndsny a fair chnnco
te kill n door, nnd Iloldlo probably
-went to watch tho others that they
'Id not oxecod tho lawful limit. Thoy
found tho hunting oxcoodingly good
but tho finding was tarnation poor
and It was not until all woro foot-.-sore
nnd leg weary for fair that ono
beautiful morning n flno, fat buck
apapnred on t'to scono standing qulot
2y a few paces from whoor tho hunt
ru wcor perched on a big log look
ing for chipmunks, or something to
-.shoot at. "See there!" shouted
"Lindsay. "Ah there," warbled Ter
xey. "Shoo thero," whispered Hel
iJcl. Then Harry woko up and bang
wont his trusty rltlc tho ball nipping
n cono from tho top of a tail ptuu
overhead. Kerplunk, wont Torroy,
headfirst off tho log nnd losing his
rifle In tho soft earth. Holdcl's re
marks were not recorded, but uelng
a human young man It Is believed
ho returned thanks when tho deer
disappeared.
Mr. Lindsay explained yesterday
that other hunters had killed nlno
deer near whoro thoy woro encamped
tho day bofo-o thoy arrived and that
fact is sufficient rsaeon why they
failed to got any meat. As Lindsay
finished his explanation a dreamy
look came into Isaacson's eyes ns ho
remarked:
"What a coincidence. Tho same
thing hns happened with mo every
timo I have gone deer hunting in
Oregon. Next time I will go tho day
before I staK and change my namo
today to that of tho fellow whom I
find out tho after tomorrow killed
tho nine deer."

SYNOPSIS OF ADDRESS
DY DR. WILSON
The Mail Tribune of Monday jjave
3nyor Rose's anti-prohibition speech
-in Medford. Today it presents &
-synopsis of the address delivered
Sunday evening by Dr. Clarence
Treu Wilson at the Nntntoriuin as
-follows :
"Of all the enterprises I know,' we
iavo three classifications. All will
come under one of these categories
i business, sharity or crime.
"Busineess is so much service (or
commodity) and so much profit.
Charity is all service without profit
((except th( profit that comes from
-a. higher source). Crime is all profit
-ami no sen-ice. It is not difficult to
-see under which category tho gamb
ling business and the liquor trade be
JlaitK. Neither is properly a business
, atjull. They give no proper equiva-
-lent for tho money expended. If you
Ramble you either expect to get some
thing for nothing or nothing for
something. If you got something for
nothing you are a thief. If you get
nothing for something you are n fool.
IBut you xire not engaged in busonedS
in either case. Nor do you fare bet
ter in buying liquor, you get no real
equivalent over tho bar for the
money you spend.
"Deal with the butcher and you
lava goo meat on your table. Pat--ronize
the grocer and good food
makes the glow of health show on
Ahe faces of your children. Buy
from tho drygoods inuu or the mil
liner and your wife is a well dressed
woman; employ the carriago painter
and your buggy will shine in the
streets; hire the carpenter and your
Louse is larger and better. Every
-dollar you spend in business will
give you something in return to show
tfor it. But you mny spend your
znnney for fifty years over the bar
v.nnd never get a thing better than .1
-painted nose to show for your ensh.
That is not business or charity. It
iis crime.
"rriin. 4lin fiiiuitinci mnn nf 41.
tnto lmvo found by bitter experience
that tho liquor truffic is nn unfair
competitor to every legitimate busi
ness, detrimental to their patrons as
well as ruinous to tho homes. If the
$3,400,000 now spent in tho 430
saloons of Portland were turned into
the regular channels of trndo every
Lusiness in tho city would inorease.
'Plin cnlnnti linn 41m ftwt t...
at ovory drinker's pocket, because it
'demands trade on a cash basis, while
tho grocer, drygoods man nnd shoe
denlor must give credit; nine-tenths
of tho bad debts aro uncolloctnblo
liocauso of the drink. No manly
'businoss man is objecting to fair
-competition, which is tho lifo of
trado, Even tho minister, the physt-
jinn nnd tho attorney do better bo-
cauBo thoro aro others in tho town.
But I protest against puting tho hou-
-at morehnut, dealing in tho necessi-
iie of life, up against the unfair
competition with a legalized crime,
the pockets of the dealer before he
invests in the necessities of life.
'Twenty-four counties in this state
have voted the saloons out in the
last five years, four others have ouiy
missed it by a trifling majority, and
eighty-five additional precincts 'in
the remaining wet counties hav
voted dry.
"It is the culmination of causes
that run back into the years, nufl
must run on forever. I shall name
some of the causes that contribute
to the effects we have seen. Twenty
years ago the public school system
began the systematic instruction of
our children upon the nature of al
coholic liquors, and their effects
upon the human system. They
learned from scientific text books
that alcohol is never a food, but al
ways a poison; never to be put into
the healthy body, and though useful
as a medicine, always as a beverage,
stimulating, not ns a strengthener.
but as an irritant.
Curiosity and hope became rife.
Barmun and Bailey's circus never
produced such high expectancy, as
when it was announced that the
wholesale liquor dealers' association
was going to introduce certain .re
forms in the liquor business. No
more salpons were going to be thrust
into residence sections. Women were
not to be permitted to frequent any
of them. Observance of the Sundav
law was to be strict. They were to
close promptly within legal hours.
But this wus all just before ejection.
When election wus over, all thebe
pre-election promises, like some New
Year's resolutions, folded their tents
like the Arabs and silently stole
away.
"Once tho great American show
man remarked, "The American peo
ple like to be humbugged." To il
lustrate how eusily the thing is done,
he secured the biiht of u young lady
fro mtlie morgue, nnd the tail of a
codfish in Massachusetts bay, prop
erly adjusted them mid exhibited tho
combination at 2o cents a head, in
the ono genuine mermaid of the whole
world. Preserved in ulcohol for
ninny years, ho made a hundred
thousand dollars on it. When con
stant jolting finally bcimnitod the
two bodies, he put tho price up to
fifty cents per heud and showed tho
thing that had fooled so many peo
ple, ranking more monoy than he did
before.
"Tho enso with which our liquor
friends fool many good citizens by
their pre-election promises somehow
remind me of this experience of Bar,
mini, and nlso of unntlier philoso
pher's comment on human iiutiuv,
that, 'There is n new sucker born
"The liquor trado will never bo e
forined so long ns alcohol dwelN in
whiskey. It is not the reputation ol
tho man boliind the bur nor the color
of the saloon whether it is gilded or
whitewashed; nor the uinount paid
for license, nor tho resolutions of tho
liquor league that decides the char
acter of tho saloon. It is tho nnturo
of tho beverage' it deals over tho bnr
