PROHIBITION COUNTY
COMMITTEE.
COUNTY PLATFORM
The Prohibition purty of Marlon
county, Oregon, In convention assem
bled at Salem, Oregon, on June 15,
1912, expressing gratitude to God
for guidance In the past, recognizing
Him as the author of all Jiwt gov
ernment and seeking Ills dlroctlon In
the campaign before us, makes the
following declaration of principles
for their platform for 1912:
Declaration of Principles.
The Prohibition party Is the only
truly '"progressive" party, as evi
denced by Its broad platform utter
ances In the past. By Its 4 0 years of
uncompromising preaching and prac
tising of political righteousness, it
has made possible the present "pro
gressive" wave and demand for na
tional purification. In line, therefore,
with such record, we declare:
1. For the renewal of our allegi
ance to the principles and platforms
of the Prohibition party of the Unit
ed States and of the state of Oregon.
2. Wo demand relief from the
burden of excessive, unjust and un
tiecewary taxation,
First, by the dismissal of all su
perfluoiiH commissions and officials',
My placing all officials upon a rea
sonable flat salary;
I!y the abolition of the present ex
travagant and dishonest method of
paying certain officers In addition to j
their regular salaries, a large amount
for clerk and deputy hire regardless
of whether such clerks or deputies
are employed or not ',
And by charging nil court expenses
and the costs of the care of criminals
whose crime was committed under
the Influence of liquor to the muni
cipality where the liquor was sold.
Second, by a revision of the pres
ent systun of taxation,
It v exemption of personal property
to the amount of $ ion.
1 1 v discontinuing the taxation of
mortgages;
Hy discontinuing tho present ro
bate and penalty system of collecting
taxes, collecting only a legal rate of
Interest upon taxes not paid by the
first (lav of April;
And by the adoption of a well con
sidered income tax law.
II. For suffrage, to women upon
the same terms ami conditions ns to
men.
I. Wo favor a registration law,
which can be more economically ad
ministered than the present one.
r. Wo favor equal opportunities j
for capital and labor and declare for
enactment of such laws ns will se-i
cure the nearest possible approach to
this equality.
ft". We declare the national gov
ernment should prohibit all inter
state commerce In Intoxicating bev
erages and should forbid the use of
the malls to aid such traffic is
now done regarding lotte", ies and
other evils.
7. We declare for the destruction
of the white slave traffic with Its un
speakable evils, and the enactment
of stringent lawn ami their rigid en
forcement against the social evil.
X. The Prohibition party for 40
years has cried aloud against tho
compromising and half-way measures
of dealing with the liquor question;
has stood without fusion or surrend
er of ltn great principles, against tho
gigantic liquor traffic and Its corrupt
partnership with municipal, state and
national governments; the combined
liquor parties, the powerful subsid
ized press, the heartless sanction of
ImslnesH Interests, the tyranny of so
clal custom, and the amazing apathy
and Indifference of the Christian vot
ers. We today renew our demand
that the opponents of the liquor traf
fic shall get together In the only
place where they can unite and co
operate with nny promise of hucccss
the Prohibition party. As never
before we call upon all good men and
patriots to rally to the standards of
that party, and make 1912 tho "Out
to Win" campaign In the war on tho
legalized liquor traffic.

Mr. Harris wbb born In Presqulle,

In Des Moines In 1906 he was can
didate for city auditor on the Pro
hibition ticket and ran far ahead
of the rest of the ticket.
In. character, ability and Integrity,
Mr. Hoffman Is eminently fitted for
ii. u. Huffman
for the office of Commissioner and
the people of Marion County can
make no mistage In voting for him.
O. JOKY, CANDIDATE FOR
JUSTICE OP THE PEACE
j roil SALEM DISTRICT.
Mr. Jory Is of the old pioneer
stock, the family coming to Oregon
In 1S47. In his earlier life Mr. Jory
espoused the principles of the Repub
lican party, lint the attitude of that
party on moral Issues was so thor
oughly distasteful that In 18.8G he
entered the ranks of the Prohibition
party. Mr. Jory at one time was
nominated for county judge, and the
vote polled for him was very credit
able. He stands on a broad and pro-
0. JOKY
gresslve platform. He believes that
all our laws should be strictly en
forced and If nny are found to be bad
upon enforcement, they should be re
pealed. He would call to the voters'
attention that Justices of the peace
are given Jurisdiction for cases of
violation of our present local option
law and although he holds that it Is
all too local and certainly too option
al, It should be strictly enforced, Just
as all other laws. Mr. Jory follows
the vocation of a manufacturer of
fruit driers, In which line he has
made good, and If the voters of the
Salem Justice district will try him,
they will find that he will also make
good as their justice of the peace.
JOHN R. MOORMAN,
Candidate for County Sheriff.
Mr. Moorman was boni In Indiana
In 1S3S and lived In tho same com
munity till 1 909, when he came to
Salem. Mr. Moorman Is one of the
old line Prohibitionists, early seeing
the futility of expecting the old
parties to settle the liquor Issue. He
has been nominated for office by bis
party a number of times. In 1904
one of the old parties wanted him to
accept their nomination and also
promised him support four years
later. However, he refused, ran on
the straight Prohibition ticket, and
won out.
"In politics Mr. Moorman Is a Pro
hibitionist. In office ho is a servant
of the people." Mr. Moorman's
friends In the 1904 campaign used to
say in their speeches, "If you want
to vote for a man who will serve his
friends, vote for the other candidate;
If you want a man who will serve all
alike, vote for Mr. Moorman." Note
the difference. Vote for him this
time.
". C. EMMEL,
Prohibition Candidate for County
Clerk of Marlon County.
Rom In the "dry" state of Kansas
with Prohibition parents Mr. Emmel
came to Oregon In 1896 and grew up
to inherit the progressive ideas of
this great state. He believes the

Prohibition party to be the first and
truly progressive party. Mr. Emmel
was raised on a farm In Washington
county, taught school for three years,
spent two years in Willamette Uni
versity, and graduated from the Cap
ital Business College of Salem. 'Mr.
Emmel says, "The llciuor traffic
MUST and WILL be abolished, and
I believe through the efforts of the
Prohibition party. My first vote was
for Mr. Chafln, and I shall bo proud
to repeat 'that vote this November.
If elected to office this fall, I shall
do my utmost to administer the
duties of County Clerk consistent
with our party platform." Mr. Ena
mel's business training highly fits
him for the duties of County Clerk.
THE PROHI ;PARTY WAS
The first party to advocate the
following measures:
The election of United States Sen
ators by direct vote of the people
Equal Suffrage for men and wom
en since 1872.
Initiative, Referendum and Re'

prohibition of discrimination in fav
or of capital.
Conservation.
Prohibition of lotteries.
Prohibition of white slavery 30
years before the old parties took
a single step in this direction
Suppression of polygamy.
International peace.
"The things which appear new to
the other parties, we have been ad
vocating for twenty-five years. They
have not yet caught up to us upon
the prohibition of child labor in
mines, workshops and factories; un
iform marriage aud divorce, court
review of postofflco department de
clslons, the suppression of the social
evil and the traffic In girls, and the
prohibition of the liquor traffic in
every land and clime where the stars
and stripes fly.
In view of these things are we
presuniptous when we say:
WE ARE THE ORIGINAL PRO
GRESSIVES.
