ONLY RICH CAN PORTLAND, June 4 The chief ef fect ot national prohibition in Ore gon will be to cut down the supply ot "bootleg" Intoxicants and thereby so Increase the price that only the very rich can afford to Imbibe, is the opinion ot Chief of Police F. N. Johnson. The chief adds to his state-, ment that the evils ot prohibition will be automatically done away with within 10 )ears b) the elimination ot the supply and the forced curtailment ot the demand. The fact that the rest ot the United States will be bone dry on July 1 will neither help nor hinder Port land's btbblers In their pursuit of for bidden liquid. Portland is about as bone dry as It can ever become, for whiskey Is selling at $15 to $20 a bottle, and "moonshine at 10 to $12, and the thirty ones, those whose Joy ot life Is measured in quarts, have turned to substitutes. The Inexorable law of supply and demand Is working havoc with the appetites of those who love whiskey. The domand Is great, but It Is only the man with tho bottomless purse who can get all ho wants; those with out money turning to patent medi cines, extracts, hair tonic and bay i rum as agents of intoxication. The eternal vlgalence of the citj, county and federal authorities makes the barter ot whisky a risky proposition; McNeil's Island continual!) throws the shadow of its somber walls, on those who run the liquor into the. . , . .

N E I n M TNH Willamette Valley Vote Wa Mostly Against Measures. GUARANTEEJMLL WINS 81 Per Cent Amendment, Room velt Highway and Market Road Will Be Among the leaders IJws tenant Governor BUI Defeated Others Barely Get By. PORTLAND, June 4. Oregon will take her place among the progressive) states ot the Union, for her citlz-ms yesterday went on record aa favorta all ot the reconstruction measure that were submitted (or their ap proval or rejection. It Is hard to ar which ot these were ot the greatest Importance to the development of tha state. Each was Important In Itself, but perhaps the most Important were the amendment to the constitution permitting counties to vote up to six per cent of their assessed valuation for the construction of good roads, the guaranteeing ot irrigation bonds and the Roosevelt Highway. All three carried by substantial majorities, tho it was necessary to get the Tote ot Multnomah county to insure the pas sage ot all reconstruction measures. Indications are that the amend ment creating the office of lieute nant governor has been defeated. When the returns first began to come In to the headquarters of the reconstruction committee, everyone, was Jubilant, for they indicated that all ot the measures would carry by I big majorities. But this joy was short lived, for when the returns from. Marlon, Douglas and some of tha Williamette valley counties began to get In. the majorities melted so fast that it was realized that it Multno mah county did not line up strong for the measures they would be lost. Dut Multnomah did norfall to line up with progress and gave every one ot the measures majorities so large) that all of them are sure ot passing. The leaders will be the Roosevelt Highway, Market Roads, permitting counties to vote up to six per cent ot their assessed valuation and the sol dier bills.
