City Prohi Law
Burdens Taxpayer
( Continued from page 1)
great commonwealth of Oregon has
thrown its all powerful and shelter
ing arm about their little city by In
cluding It within the prohibited ter
ritory, thui protecting Its people from
any 111 effects to their health and
peace from the sale of intoxicating
liquors.
So, It would seem to be unneces
sary, even supposing that the health.
and peace of the people of Klamath
Falls were actually menaced and
threatened from that source, to ex
ercise its extraordinary police pow
ers. Were this proposed ordinance to
be passed by the council, wouldn't It
amount to a declaration by the city
that it had no confidence in the pow
er, purpose or ability of the great
state of Oregon to enforce the pro
hibition within Us limits, and be
cause of that lack of faith the city
must perforce ruBh to the rescue of
the health and peace of its people
and re-enact the state prohibition law
as an ordinance with much lighter
penalties?
, If the state prohibition law is In
adequate as a criminal statute to
accomplish its purpose or Is in
capable of enforcement by the state
authorities, why re-enact It In this
city as an ordinance?
If, on the other hand, it Is all suf
ficient, as its designers intended it
should be, how is It strengthened,
broadened or even supplemented by
re-enacting it in form of an ordinance
providing lighter penalties?
As a matter of tact, Its re-enactment
In this proposed ordinance pro

More than ten cords of firewood
has been cut from an elm tree,
found by its rings to be 300
years old, felled at Price Church
of the Brethren near here. It
was the last of a dozen elms that
were old trees when the church
was built in 1790. The tree was
75 feet high and 5 feet 3 inches
in diameter.

Watch far she
bring it within the jurisdiction of
the city court would in all probabil
ity result in practically nulifylng the
law, at least its beneficial effects.
The people have decided by an
overwhelming vote that the sale and
distribution of intoxicating liquors
shall be prohibited in this state;
Klamath Falls is an integral part of
the state, however much it may be
doubted in some quarters; the legis
lature has provided the method of
making that decision effective and
providing adequate penalties for dis
obeying the mandate of the peeple:
under the statute bootlegging may
properly be classed among the ex
pensive luxuries.
The county court Included In its
last budget an item of $2,500 to as
sist in defraying the expenses of mak
ing the law what people Intended it
should be. The police force of the
city Is at the service of the state at
all times within the city limits to aid
the sheriff's office in apprehending
violators of the law, and that, too,
at no extra cost to the state or city.
The theory that the city can as
sume the burden of enforcing the
prohibition law within its- limits un
der this proposed ordinance and
thereby enrich Its treasury from fines
Imposed is likely to prove an ex
pensive experiment.
The item of $2,600 appropriated
by the county will not be available
to the city, neither will the state ap
propriate funds to assist the city in
its enforcement.
How long do you suppose it would
be after the city has announced its
Intention by the passage of this pro
posed ordinance before it would be
found necessary to appropriate a con
siderable sum from the general fund
to finance the proposition? It cer
tainly will not be'contended that the
city can enforce the law any cheaper
than the state and county.
But the city made no provision in
Its budget as did the county, and
there will be no money available for
that purpose legally. But what of
that?
Again, as a straight out and out
business proposition, why should4hls
city, as a city, take upon itself the
burden of enforcing a state law? Ex
cept on the theory that the state is
incompetent.
The property owners are taxed for
their proportion of the state's ex
penses. They are taxed again to en
able the county to assist the state In
the enforcement of its laws. They
the taxed again and for the third,
but not the lut time, to enable the
city to enforce the city ordinances,
nd incidentally to assist the state
within Its limits to enforee the state
laws.
Why go further?

President and Mrs. Wilson will make

for the evening will put aside inter

concerns that have engaged him al
most ever since the war began.

biggest motion picture publication,
makes tho following report on "Tho
Battle Cry of Peace," which Is to bo
shown at Houston's opera houso Sun
day afternoon and evening:
There isn't money enough in our
biggest banks to pay for the advertis
ing that this picture Is receiving every
hour of tho duy. The lesson "Tho Bat
tle Cry of Peaco" teaches, comblnod
with Its dramatic value, makes It a
winner. It Is a big appeal for pre-
parodncss, picturing tho pitifully in
effective condition of Amorlcan de
fense. Tho picture bIiowb the Inva
sion of America by an "unknown"
enemy. Our Inadequate fleet Is de
stroyed. Then comes tho bombard
ment of New York, tho dropping of
bombs Into tho panic-stricken mobs
and on unprotected homes, and tho
mowing down of resisting citizens fol
lowed by tho seizing of helpless wo
men and children. Tho plot surrounds
a rich Now York family betrayed by
a npy, but this Is only Incidental, for
the real story of tho picture In told In
brones which are mado to speak for
themselves to teach the lesson of pre
paredness in a much moro vivid man
