MEDFOTvD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORKdOX, MONDAY. SEPTEMBER -". 1922-
BOOZE CHALLENGES
CONSTITUTION IS
WORD OR. WILSON
Dr. Glarenco True Wilson delivered
an address nt the '.Methodist Jipiscopal
church yesterday in part as follows:
It will probably never be forgotten
by the Btudents of history that the
first rebellion that ever lifted its arm
against the federal government of the
United States was the Whiskey Re
bellion of 1791. The government was
In debt and in need.. It had to levy a
tax where it could. It decided to tax
whiskey and the 'distillers in western
Pennsylvania rose up In their might,
armed themselves nnd attacked the
government officers, customs houses,
postoft'ices, mail carriages, and had to
be put down by force, of nrniB. In the
one hundred and forty years since,
their spirit has never changed. They
have rebelled against every restric
tion, every law, and flouted every reg
ulation. When the war came on we found
the brewery Interests as strong as the
government and allied with the German-American
Alliance. It was against
the government and had no hesitancy
in coming down to Washington to
brow-beat the president and to bull
doze a' patriotic congress. That power
had to be silenced before we could
conduct a successful war. This was
done by war prohibition.
Then the amendment was passed by
congress, and sent out to the states
with the handicap that If it did not
pass' in seven years nil the work
should go for nothing; nnd if wo had
i been beaten In that matter we would
have been good sports and started
again. Hut the liquor power was
beaten. rV)rty-flvo out of the forty
eight stato ratified the amendment In
thirteen months. Then what did these
yellow-streaked traitors, disloyal in
war times and disobedient in peaco
times, do? Why, they raised a rebel
lion. They sturted the ulogan "No
beef, no work," for labor had been tied
up to a treacherous and double-dealing
leader who had been getting a salary
for many many years us the head of
the Federation of Labor, but was also
on the pay-roll of the brewers to serve
them: and Mr. Oompors has been try
ins to show for at least fifteen yearn
thaf the Master did not know what he
was talking about when He taught
that no man can servo two masters.
.'However, the "No' beer, no work
rebellion fell fluL Then a New Jorsey
governor Btnrted out on the rampage
with the Blogan "I will make New Jer
sey as. wet as tho .Atlantic ocean." He
succeeded in giving his state a Jaw
dryer than the Volstead act, and final
ly ratifying tho 18th amendment. :
j. But wo nood not blind oursolvos to
the plain fact that though prohibition
is in, the constitution forever and that
it menu b beer us well as whiskey, light
wlno as much us brandy, that we are
getting further away from the open
saloon,- the Uermnn-Amorlcan Alliance
and the grower's domination, and that
the people who seek the' course of
least resistance are fast forgetting tho
sad old days of rum-rule in our cities,
liquor domination, in our state and
national politics and are only seolng
the Inconvenience of no beer and wine,
and the difficulties of a strict law en
forcement; and some are so easy as to
think that an Institution that never
obeyed a law or a city ordinance in
one "hundred and forty years, or main
tained a legal distinction that the law
set up, now If given the right to manu
facture and sell boors and light wines
Would become strictly law abiding und
maintain only this kind of .dope nnd
nothing more. .7 -.
What , this country needs now Is n
new birth of patriotism, loyalty to tho
flag and ohetllen'co to law. Then a
pride' In standing by tho officers of the
law who bave been appointed to repre
sent UB in doing the unpleasant thing
of enforcing -a new fundamental
change in the attitude of our govern
ment 'toward its most destructive in
ternal ailment; lind a demand that no
congressman shall ovor - be elocted
again by a patriotic people, whatover
his party affiliations, if ho Is disloyal
to the constitution of tho United
States, which lis will take an oath to
defend nnd enforce.
There must be tho cultivation of In
dependence in Christian citizenship
nnd tho kind of straight voting that
WUliiun Jonnings Bryan defined when
he said: "Tho only straight ticket any
Christian man can voto is his own
ticket with' every crooked nnnlo
crossed off of It." "

fl7"0H THIS PAPCftWrlCN WRITINC,
ASIILANP, Sept. 25. Monday.
Tuesday and Wednesday. Of this week
will, in a measure, resemble tho ac
tive, wnrtimc canvassing periods i"
behalf of marketing government
bonds, for n drive is on locally with
a score of teams on the Job the in
tent being to secure stork subscrip
tions for tho granite quarry develop
ment project, an enterprise already
installed but which needs additional
capital to place it on a working liasi:
to such an extent as this promising
industry, warrants. The city has been
districted, captains chosen, team 'as
signments made, and all plans pel'
feeted for making tho canvass an
energetic one. Workers will lunch
together each day of the intensive
campaign in order to compare notes,
the noonday meal to be provided free
of charge. The following statement
embodies a recapitulation of the es
sential phases of tho (Iranite project,
which it is proposed to develop in a
manner commensurate with its im
portance as a lending commercial-industrial
asset:
The company, as previously an
nounced, pains to purchase the Tllair
granite holdings six miles southeast
of Ashland, and build a big granite
producing business.
Several months of exhaustive in
vestigation has satisfied many of
Ashland's best business men that
here, is an opportunity to establish
more firmly and on a larger scale, a
splendid Industry for this valley, em
ploying a large force of men and
bringing into tlus community every
month thousands of dollars from out
Hide sources.
There arc great quantities of gran
ite in this vicinity, but careful and
expert investigation shows that the
Nell creek section Is the only, place
now known where best monumental
stone Is 'available in largo bloeklrcc
from blind seams, rust, coarse mien
and other objectionable character
istics which render granito of no
value for monument or extensive
building operations. Mr. lilalr owns
tho choice spots adjacent to Neil
creek nnd near tho railroad. These
aro to be the basis for the building
of this large Industry. .
AS a result of searching inquiries
made among the granite dealers pf
tho northwest It nppears that 50 car
loads of granito per year could be
marketed ininiediately, if possible to
get it out. The Ashland granite is
favored universally among, dealers,
who agree that it is equal to the fa
mous granite of Harre, Vermont,
being shipped clear across the con
Uncut uhder a henvy freight charge.
In many Instances real granite men
have been unable to distinguish sh
land from LSarro granite, tit latter
costing approximately ' 50 per cent
more laid down at coast points. This,
In Itself, asido from tho time saved In
deliveries, assures a good profit in
handling the local 'stono.
' Upon completion of tho stock sub
scriptions, . organization . will, take
place with election of officers and dl
rectors, nnd plans laid for orection
of iiqw buildings, the purchaso of ad
ditional machinery and tho larger
opening of the quarry.
This piaJeet has practically the
unanimous approval or' Ashland
people, and should havo their finan
cial co-openitlon to the fullest extent
possible. When visited by. tho soli-'
cllors next Monday, Tuesday nnd
Wednesday, every progressive- and
loyal resident should bo prepared to;
takn stock nt mien (n tli.,'ovfnt ttt hlu
ability. It; should prove to be a J
splendid , investment paying1 good '
dlvidonds, within n reasonable time :
and .constantly growing greater in
value
Of tho proposed capital stock, ap
proximately $50,000 has.' been ..sub
scribed by a score of investors, leav
ing if 100,000 yet to bo dlsposod of.
Tho subscriptions to stock thus far
range In amount from 1100 to f5000.
Tho park systm resembled a Fourth
of July celebration or fair occasion
on Sunday, to such an extent did tho
Knights of l'ythias Invade the Llth
lan domain. Tho picnic grounds
proper were thronged, while scores of
Individual family gatherings were
behl amid shady nooks, tho babbling
brook during the prevailing dry spell
being nt low ebb. A largo number
mingled religious service with the
picnic outing by first attending the
great evangelistic movement at tho
Chautauqua tabernacle, that building
Delng packed with worshippers. Din
ner over with, tho afternoon hours
passed rapidly witr. games, talks and
reunions socially. Not only the
young folks, but many of their elders
wore Interested in our locnl y.no; more
particularly wltli the beautiful swans
a recent addition to Lake Nyatuza in
the parks. The barbecued meats
were done to a turn, 1). M. l.owe
being present though on vrutclipa--to
superintend the cooking thereof at
the newly constructed pit.
any who were Interested to attend
their regular services there.
A band of Christian workers from
Ashland and vicinity will conduct a
free church program at the Eagle
Point church Sunday morning, Oct. 1,
at tlm close of the Huriday school to
which all aro Invited. They will visit
the Sunday school it 10 o'clock a. m

day School association and will give
a free program of sacred songs and
speaking at 11 o'clock a. ni. A general

on the way as the men reported that a
part or tho cars of tho logging train
were off the tracks not far from here.
They didn't go through here until
about 3 o'clock p. m. and returned
with a train load of logs the next Tore
noon. Rudolph Wcidman, one of our hus

erected a new silo this season has suc
ceeded In filling his silo also Tuesday,
the ISth Inst. Ilawloigh -Mathews and
bd Dahack have been filling, their
silos this week also. The reader can
perhaps form somo Idea of tho way the
cream industry is developing by the
number of silos there are out in our
section of the county.
