Voters of Oregon, this is'what you arc called upon to decide next Tuesday, November 8th. The good general, when defeated, retires in order and gathers up his forces to charge again and regain his lost ground. Does the prohibitionist? No, like the bunko steer err he hies himself to pastures new, -where the grass is taller . and his game is not so well known. And should, anybody attempt to differ with him, be he preacher or layrnan, they immediately set up a liowl of liar, thief, fraud and prohibition is the biggest fraud ever perpetrated on the American voter. Prohibitionists claim thirty-eight millions of people in the United States are now living in dry .territory, yet the consumption of liquor is on the increase? Could. it be that the fellows in this dry territory have some in their cellars? NO. Liar again. Then the fellow in the wet territory must work overtime or a double shift. : Fifty years ago the leaders of prohibition thought they saw the dawn of the perfect day, "when there wouldn't be a dram shop nor a drunkard in all the land. They were confident tliat the problem of intemperance which had per- nlovPfl find baffled mankind for thousands of years was as good as solved. The great dragon was about to be slain f Jand his dead 'carcass hurled, into the bottomless pit. But it turned out to be all a dream. Tiie dragon was not siain; he was not even seriously wounded. If he disappeared at all, it was only to betake himself to the cellar to await the passing storm, which soon died out, and now the suc cessors of the men that rallied around the standard of Neal Dow are working the same promises that were made of old. They assure us that the present movement means bus--' iness, and that this wave will not subside until it has swept over every foot of American soil, and has done to the rum ' .' traffic what Jehovah did to the Egyptians in the Red sea. . ... Or what Samson did to the Philistines with a jaw . bone of an ass. They are still using the jawbone. i By its record prohibition must be judged. On every page of that record from Maine to North Carolina must be .written, folly, failure. t 'Neither a state-wide system, nor. under, local 'option, has prohibition ever made the slightest headway towards the solution of the liquor problem. The one solitary serv ice that it has rendered to society is that of furnishing a warning example of the supreme folly of attempting to legislate virtue into men's lives. The long list of states 4which have tried and repudiated prohibition shows it to be destructive of moral welfare and prosperity Well might we say with the poet: -1 "better bear the ills we know than fly to those we. know not of" m t m &, r MM VOTE 328 X Yes 343 X No 345 X No .
