3500 people ill the I'orc theater on
Tuesday nipht, n large portion of
whom wore of n different opinion
than the speaker, n illustratctl when
n cull for hands Hint wanted Oregon
dry were raised.
Sam W. Small is of the south, with
n southern colonel' flow of Inn
Kttnirc and story-tellinir ability. He
described himself ax one of "Ood Al
mighty's cntV and stirred the pat
riotism of the crowd bv reference to
Old Olory, the civil war in which he
fought, and tender recollections of
Dixie. A professional southerner at
Him juncture let loose a rebel yell.
Kverv now and then the npplanse-
KC tiers of the ulnge were dropped to
pour the grape shot of wrath into
I lemon Rum.
S ntistics and arguments ngnint
the licpior traffic were introduced by
the speaker with great vim and wgor
and much wnviii" of long anus.
Some telling arguments were intro
duced, and the country wns predicted
ns "dry as n bone" in ten years.
Jtfr .Small then told of a $'2.,000,
OriO fund being raised bv the liipior
in crests to combat prohibition. To
offset this, the plan was to pray and
fight and bury the country "knee
deep beneath dry literature." A
printing plant will be established at
Portland nnd this neck of the woods
covered with pamphlets.
In conclusion an appeal was made
for fiindn to carry on the Oregon

returned to their firing line which
encircled an area of several blocks
