"These Pitsburg men paid out of
their own pockets for a luncheon to
Portland business men in order that
they might tell them why the Pitts­
burg board of trade had petitioned
Congress to submit prohibition. Brief­
ly summed up, they found that valu­
able machinery stood idle on Monday
because men were absent, not having
recovered from their Saturday and
Sunday debauches in the open sa­
loons. They found that the accidents
and deaths which they were compell­
ed to pay for happened on Monday,
and for the same reason. They found
that their defective and spoiled work
happened on Monday, and for the
same reason manufacturers are dry.
"In December 600 of the Pittsburg
manufacturers, lunching together in
the Ft. Pitt Hotel, took account of
these things, declared for state and
national prohibition, and petitioned
Congress for the submission of the
Shepherd-Hobson
national
dry
amendment. The West Virgina Lum­
ber Industries Association, the Ohio
Manufacturers Association, the Nat­
ional Foundrymens Association, 98
per cent of the railroads of America
and many ether productive indus­
tries, are taking action along similar
lines.

than a camel can scent water, are the
owners of the Colorado Fuel & Iron.
The Colorado Fuel & Iron has now
turned dry.
“The Booth-Kelly Lumber Co., of
Eugene, the Northw’estern Door Co.,
Portland, the Baker White Pine Lum­
ber Co., of Baker, and other manu­
facturers of Oregon, testify that the
saloon is the heavest drain upon their
business. In order to secure the loca­
tion of new factories, in order to pro­
tect the factories which we have, it is
business to get rid of the liquor busi­
ness in Oregon.
"The Anti-Saloon League has a

This means five million readers, and
includes most of the big manufactur­

HELLO!
Prohibition
VS
Temperance
In Germany, where pro­
hibition is unknown and
where all the people have
been temperate drinkers of
wholesome beers and light
wines, there is less drunk­
enness than in Maine or in
Kansas—the two most con­
spicuous prohibition states
in the Union.
The same is true of France
and Italy. The world over
you will find that the really
temperate races are those
who are not prohibited from
drinking temperate bever­
ages such as beer and wine.
Prohibition in Germany, France
or Italy would produce exactly
the same results that it has pro­
duced in every state in the Union
where prohibitory laws have been
enacted. It would not stop men
from drinking nor decrease drunk­
enness, but it would drive out the
mild drinks and encourage men
who do drink to resort secretly to
the highly concentrated spirits.
If prohibition really saved men
from the "curse of drink ” it would
have more to commend it to the
intelligenceof thepeople. But,as
thegreateditor, Henry Watterson,
observes in the Louisville Courier-
Journal, “It does not promote
either temperance or virtue. It
arouses human passion to frenzy
by restricting private rights. It
does not reduce drunkards. It
multiplies Pharisees and male­
factors.’’—Paid Adver tismeat.
