IN HEROIC DEED
FimXKS. Dec. 2. IVv order of
Kin- Albert, the cross of the Order
or Leopold was conferred on every
member of the little band of cyclists
who crossed tho Gorman lines nnd
blew up n bridge nenr Mom, which
cut the German c-oaimtinientiouss for
threo dnvs and allowed the allies to
assemble the forco necessary to check
the advance of the Germans towani
Calnix.
This company of eycli.-t. from
which tho men were taken for thi
piceo of hazardous work, is composed
of 300 member), sworn to give their
lives to the country. Only ten were
taken from each regiment out of the
many who volunteered. Tho corps is
used in operations -which often menn
certain death. In tho present case,
the destruction of the bridge cut off
tho Germans' hiipplies and is consid
ered by the king to he directly re
sponsible for the failure of the Ger
mniiK to break through tho lino of the
itllies in the critical days of the first
week of November.
Tho officers who received both the
cross of honor and the rnnk of chev
alier of the ordor of Leooold were

MAKING PROHIBITION A FAROE
TjriO "Coiiiiiuttoo 01 Um llunuTPU" wnu'it, wuii uw
Aiifi-Rnlooti lonciip. fnthorcd tho prohibition mnend-
luent niul made tho fight for a dry Oregon, is reported to
bo drawing up a measure to bo presented to both houses
of tho legislature as an enabling net carrying into offeot tho
'letter and spirit of tho amendment.'1 A dispatch from
Portland says:
Dcsplto rumors to tho contrary, there wilt be no attempt I" this measure
to prevent the distribution of liquor nor to prevent Us use In the home.
The enforcement measure, as was tho amendment, Is alined merely at tho
open saloon and public salo of liquor.
Such a measure will make prohibition a fa roe. It will
enable every person to secure as much liquor as he wants
and increase drunkenness, without the regulation of tho
traffic and tho revenue derived tucrctrom by mo com
munity. . ...
A measure such as that proposed will create endless
"blind pigs," stimulate "bootlegging," convert every club
into a barroom with "lookers." multiply the number of
"clubs," make highly profitable the drug stores, increase
enormously the traffic of the express companies and send
millions of dollars annually out of the state.
The. people of Oregpn voted overwhelmingly for pro
hibition. It was tho women's vote that turned the scale.
Does anvone for a minute suppose that, women want liquor
shipped'in anv more than they want saloons to dispense it?
Oregon has decided for prohibition. Let us have pro
hibition. Lot us have the most stringent, drastic laws pos
sible, and enforce them to the letter. Having voted to make
people good bv legislation, let us complete the effort. If
liquor is bad for humanity it should be prohibited, along
with opium and other injurious drugs.
Any law permitting the importation, distribution and
Use of 'liquor in the home or elsewhere, where a state has
voted for prohibition, makess for hypocrisy the outward
form without the real substance. It is merely a sham and
is a violation of the spirit of tho law and tho expressed will
of the people. .
The iMail Tribune opposed the prohibition law because
it feared some such farce of converting a regulated,
licensed, revenue-yielding traffic into tin unregulated, un
licensed, non-revenue producing nuisance tho good feat
ures eliminated and the bad still remaining. Now that the
people have decided for prohibition, it believes real pro
hibition should follow, and if the advantages promised are
forthcoming there can bo no question of its permanency.
At any rate, it should be given ti thorough trial, and if tni
satisfactorv, can be repealed.
Morally, it is just as wrong to buy and peddle booze one
way as another, and the amendment was voted to abolish,
not modifv, the traffic to eradicate an evil, not create
Pharisees." Having voted Oregon dry, lot us see to it that
she becomes dry.
PROHIBITION LAW
TAKEN TO COURT
OLYMPIA. Wash., Dec. 2. Whcth-
or or not the superior court of Thurs
ton county has Jurisdiction In the ap
nllcatlon made by M. A. K. Gottsteln
of Seattle to rctstraln tho secretary
of state from announcing tho result
of the vote on the prohibition bill
and the governor from proclaiming
Its pasrage was tho point argued by
attorneys for tho plaintiffs and- for
the attorney general's office today.
Plaintiff's attorney argued that the
court had Jurisdiction because a pro
perty right was Involved, as to per
mit tho measure to go Into cried
with tho possibility of future court
action would Jcopardlro the property
of the liquor Interests through un
certainty, If through no other means,
Counsel for tho state cited many
cases to show that there was no vested
right In the liquor business, and that
even If the law became effective no
actual physical Invasion of property
right could result. Ho argued that
tho court had no Jurisdiction ot grant
a temporary Injunction unless It had
tho right to grant tho permanent In
junction bought.
Today's application Is for a temp
orary writ, after which the case would
be heard on Its merits which aro not
touched In today's argument's.
