Butler Toasted
As Prime Mover
In Prohi Repeal
NEW YORK, Deo. (AP
Member of the Porelgn Pre
aneoclatlon lifted their glaaaea to
Nicholas Murray Butler last night
and In a champagne toast ac
claimed him, a the man "most
responsible for repeal."
Dr. Butler, president of Colum
bia University, described his long
campaign and termed national
prohibition "a phase of the rest
to persecute."
"Now It Is the responsibility of
the people of the United States
to show that they havo a much
sense as the peoples of Sweden,
Greet Britain and Canada," he
told the diners.
THREE WOULD BE
Although th ctAt !glfl,aturft hu
not yet taken any definite action de
termining the type of liquor .control
to be Adopted. In Oregon, eeveral per
sons here are already looking with
covetous eyes toward the job of man
ager of the local liquor store, in the
belief that the Knox bill wlU be
adopted, it was reported In several
quarters.
ChrU OottUeto, Republican, and for
mer manager of the United St tea
employment bureau here, was sa'.d
to have petitions In circulation to
day, recommending his appointment.
Earl Foy, also Republican, and for
mer collector of Internal revenue, who
was recently succeeded In office by
Erie Oray, u also said to be & can
didate for the position.
The third, mentioned today was
William Truss, whose politics were
not revealed.
It Is understood that tt the Knox
bill Is passed that the appointment
of liquor store managers will be up
to Governor Julius L, Meier, who has
shown no fondness for Democrats up
to date In any of his appointment,
so the Bourbons have mentioned no
one for the position.
Frank DeSoura, chairman of the
Democratic central oommlttee, stated
this afternoon that he knew of no
Democrat seeking the Job, due to
put action of the governor.
A consignment of "osteo mylltla" Is
now eh rdute by ilr mall from New
York city, and will be used by Dr.
O. I. Drummond of the county health
department In the treatment of bone
tuberculosis. The "osteo mylltU," In
plain Engllah, are "blow fly" eggs.
The "osteo mylltls" are placed In
the bone. They eat away the decayed
portions of the diseased bone, and
leave the healthy areas. When this
is completed the bona heals, and ft
cure Is generally affected.
The treatment Is unusual, but not
rare. Three or four Jackson cases,
are now being treated by Medford
phyalolans.
T
Bop of Jackson authorities that
the special session of the legislature
would enact a law providing for the
destruction of slot machines, Waa
crushed this week, when the measure
failed to emerge from the "steering
committee."
The sheriff now holds four slot ma
chines, seised ten days ago In raids
on roadhouses and a country store,
under orders of the Justice court to
wait until a decision Is reached. The
present law provides for selnire, but
I Indefinite on destruction and con
fiscation. The opinion of the attor
ney general on confiscation 1 also
sought.
The slot machine Issue brought out
the bitterest attack of the legislative
session. Press dispatches from Salera
statet
Control of politician by slot
machine Interest and control of
th steering committee by gam
bling game operators was charged
on the floor of the house Tues
day by ita only woman member,
Hannah Martin. Mrs. Martin pre
olpltated the first spectacular
battle on the floor of the legis
lature this session with her at
tempt to force the steering com
mittee to report out one of her
bills.
The legislature is expected to con
sider further sctlon to end the mud
dle, before adjurnlng Saturday.
Two of the slot machine operators
were fined 936 each and coats. The
distributor waa fined 93ft and coata.
Both cases appeared before Justice
of the Peace William B. Coleman
last week. The fines were paid.
Early In October, the district at
torney and sheriff, a did official In
other counties of the state, started
a campaign against slot machines.
Most establlahmenta. with the de
vice on the counters, compiled with
the ban, but a few In rural sections
and roadhouaes, brought them back.
The second clean-up followed. Moat
of the gambling devices In this city
have since been kept closeted.
