Defends the Ger man Deer Garden. Hofcr Speaks for the Salem Plan of Open Saloon Fronts nnd Strict HeRuIatlon, Wilson for Prohibi tion of Manufacture. (Medford Tribune.) The joint debate at tho tabernaclo last night between Dev. Clarence Truo Wilson of Portland and Colonel E. Hofer, of Salem, on tho proposed constitutional amendment drew a very largo audience. Both sides of tho qoustlon. were presented in n fearless and lmpasslonate manner that left no room for doubt as to the earnestness and conviction of tho speakers. The Rev. Wilson opened tho debnto and tho spoakers alternated with a half hour each for two hours and hold tho entire au dlenco to tho finish. Hon. B. F. Mulkoy acted as chairman and hold tho watch as timekeeper. Dr. Wilson's argument was strict ly on prohibition lines. He was put on the defense when Colonel Hofer asked him why tho same organiza tion which proposed the local option law a few years ago wore now try ing to overthrow their own work by substituting statowldo prohibition. Dr. Wilson stated that local op tion was only the entering wedgol for statewide prohibition. Ho de nounced tho Rcddy bill as Infamous and charged tho wholesnlo liquor dealora and browors of Portland with debauching "tho moral sentl mont of tho whole stnto by shipping liquors Into tho drw counties nnd ac cused tho liquor Interests of being responsible for gambling nnd morn I vice nnd with tho oxtonslon of boot logging' and illicit snlo which hnd becomo very common nnd could not bo supprescd unless tho manufac ture and sale was stopped, ns pro posed by tho constitutional nmond mont. i Colonel Hofor CltcH Iowa. Colonol Hofor statod that ho was born nnd rnlsod In tho stnto of Iowa nnd hnd Hvod through a 10-yonr 'struggle to establish constitutional prohibition in Mint state, nnd did not wnnt to seo prohibition ropoatod In Oregon. Tho snmo law was pro ! posed horo and as stnto cnnstnbulnry, ( with power to ontor prlvnto resi dence nnd nny plnco of business and Bonrch, seize, nnd dostroy liquors whorovor found, nnd conllscnto prop erty nnd lnvolvo tho stnto In costly litigation. Tho strugglo by tho pro hibitionists had onded in failure In Iowa, where ovory city todny hnd licensed snloonB under Btrlct regu lation, to tho number of 1GG0. Tho light for a constitutional amend ment was a theorotlcnl lnvnslon of tho good ordor and law-abiding con ditions that provnjled under license nnd regulation in tho cities and local option for the resldenco districts and country precincts. To extend "dry' sentiment over "wot" territory meant' strife nnd disorder, lawless- nes nnd bootlegging, discord In communities, bad feelings between business men nnd neighbors, nnd 111 the end compromise and surrender, just ns it had taken place In the stnto of Iowa. Defends Beer Garden. Dr. Wilson, as chairman of the "dry" campaign committee, defend ed tho German beer garden and the soclnl drinking customs of tho Gor man people. He also defended the private rfght to drink and the use of nlcohollc liquors as medicine- In caso of sickness. Colonel Hofer rid iculed those concessions as being In consistent and Insincere. He asked how these rights could be given tho peoplo when tho manufacture and sale was to bo prohibited? Dr. Wil son would glvo tho people a boor gardon without any beer, tho private right to drink without the privilege of oxerclslng that right, unless they bocamo lawbroakers. Colonol Hofer attacked tho clause of tho 'prohibition amendment which permits manufacture and snlo for medicinal, purposes as being in the Interest of tho druggists and tho medical trust. Ho showed by statis tics that Maine, Kansas, North Da kota nnd other prohibition state3 had more government liquor licenses por capita than stntes under local option nnd regulation. Ho Bhowed that thoro woro twlco ns mony di vorces in prohibition states as in states whoro tho trafflc was regulat ed. Ho claimed that tho city of Tho Dalles, contrnstod with Pendle ton nnd other dry cities In Eastern Oregon,' hnd mado most progress nnd was most prosperous nnd that Salom nnd Medford woro tho most prosperous cities in AVestorn Oregon and thnt tholr prosperity was not in jured by . having regulation of sa loons. Ho defended tho Snlom sys tem of a limited number of saloons with open glnss fronts, with no gambling dovlcos or minors per mitted, ns tho modol nnd well-regulated city of Orogon. Mnktiifi Oregon Kldlruloun. Col. Hofor snld tho Anti-Saloon lenguo was tryfng, to make the state of Orogon ridiculous In tho oyes of tho nntlon. Ho said this wns tho greatest hop growing stnto In tho union nnd to adopt a prohibition plonk In tho constitution wns adver tising tho stnto ns Inconsistent In tho oxtremo, ns condemning tho manufacture nnd snlo of n product for which wo woro willing to supply tho raw matorlal for tho rest of the world to bo degraded nnd de bauched with If Dev.
