increase the possibility of punishing vio
lators of the law would be expressly re
pealed by this bill which the liquor men
have put before the people, and repealed,
for the express put pose of making it
practically impossible to convict men
for violating the law. If the amendment
proposed by the liquor dealers were

would be as harmless as any liquor man
could wish.
The proposed liquor men’s amendment
will be opposed by all temperance men.
by all who are tired of rum rule in Ore
gon, by all who think the liquor business
has enough special privileges now, con.
sidering its character and tendancies,
and by all who resent the attempt to
deceive voterr by the statement that the
three minor changes in the bill were all
that it proposed. The lovers of fair
play and a square deal, regardless of
politics, will be with us, in voting down
this liquor dealers’"ideal bill.’’ But this
is but a sample of the crooked methods
that will be used during this campaign
to mislead honest voters. Immense sums
ol money are being raised to defeat our
present law. When such deceptions are
necessary thus early in the fight, it need
not surprise any that the liquor interests
feel the situation to be desperate and are
willing to adopt desperate means. But
neither their cause, their methods nor
their liquor bill will commend themselves
to the high-minded citizens of Oregon,
and there are more of these than of the
others.
The Anti Saloon League of the State
of Oregon has before it a great work
during the coming months. Two years
ago our local option law was framed,
following the model of the Texas law.
under which the saloons have been ban
ished from 141 counties of that great
Southern state. The law has been used
here in a great many communities, with
satisfactory results. It is American ; it
gives the people the right to rule. It is
fair ; it takes iig unfair advantage of the
liquor interests ; where their business be
comes disreputable the people have a
right to repress it. If we are going to
have a local option provision at all, we
need one that can be enforced. This one
can be. It was drafted by the temper
ance forces. The proposed new bill is
drawn up for the saloon interests purely.
And the question is : If we are to have
any restrictive laws whatever, who is to
frame them, the saloonists, who trv to
break down all law, or the people whose
homes and Jpioperty interests are in
volved ?
