State witnesses testified that they had
seen hia wife and Bronson, followed
later bv Booth, pass a thicket where

to an alibi for Bronson
Mrs. Booth is 32 years of age and

While the potato crop throughout
the Northwest is short the quality is
excellent and a good price is promised
according to F. F. Mangis, of the firm
' iiiuiiKis dtub., or mis city, who ex
pects to return to Salem about Christ
mas after making a tour of tho potato
growing sections of Oregon, Washing
ton ana idnno. 'l De long dry summer,
says Mr. Mangis, has made tho potatoes
smooth and particularly free from
blight this yenr and the price holds
firm at 90 cents to $1 a hundred f o. b.
cars.
The Marion county crop is about half
of the full yield. Tho shortage is not
due to a lack of acreage Cut on account
of lato planting and a dry summer.
However, the local mnrket consumes
but a small percentage of the Murion
county yield and as tho outside mar
ket is fair tho indications nro tlint the
Marion county growers will secure good
returns from their spuds this season,
The blight which has affected pota
toes In past years does not show up
until the shipments reach the warmer
localities and often a carload will lie
sorted awny over half after it arrives
at its destination. This element has
made the local market shaky in Borne
past years but this Beason tho present
indications are that the blight will af
fect but a small percentage of the
tal crop.
Thcro is very little shipping during
the month of December as the greater
port of the crop Is moved during Jan
uary and lehruary.
WHY ITJUCCEEDS
Because It's For One Thing Only and
Salem People Appreciate This.
Nothing can be good for everything.
Doing one thing well brings success.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for one
thing only.
For weuk or disordered kidneys,
Here is Salem evidence to prove
Weir worth.
John I. ConRcr, prop, printing shop,
m N. 17th St, Salem, says: "My
back got weak and sore and my kid
neys did not act as thoy should. At
times I could hardly straighten. Know
ing about Doan's Kidney Pills, I used
them and they gave me relief from the
first. It took Doan's Kidney Pills only
a short time to rid me of kidney
trouble"
Price 60c at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for ft kidney remedy got
Doan's Kidney Pills the same that
Mr, Conger had. Foster-Milburn Co.,
; Tho session of the Six O'clock club
of the First Methodist church last ev
ening was about as lively as a political
Caucus, instead, of a sedute serious as
sembly, with diuuer served, address de
livered and everybody dismissed for
tho evening.
When Attorney General Brown began
telline lust what certain men could do
and could not do after 12 o'clock, De
cember 31 of this year, and when Judge
Charles L. AleNary was' called upon to
express his opinions on certain phases
of the new prohibition law, tho meeting
took on a new life, as every mun pres
ent was after information.
From tho oninions expressed bv each
of the speakers, it is pretty certain
that tho ex-snlooh man will have a few
privileges left, along with the average
citizen. One of these, is his right to
keep all the intoxicating liquors in his
home that lie wants, and his right to
treat his friends. In fact the average
citizen will have this right, and also the
right to drink all he pleases, provided
he does not make a public nuisance of
himself.
"It will not be an offense to have a
large supply of liquor on hand after
December 31," said tlic attorney gen
eral, "but possession of too much,
might be used as evidence that an un
lawful business was being conducted."
A saloon keeper cannot give away
liquor ,or even treat his friends after
midnight of December 31. That is a
sottled fact.
Although the supreme courts of sev
eral states have ruled on the shipping
of liquor from one state into another,
thoro is nothing in the new law, said
the speaker, to prevent shipments of in
toxicating liquors into Oregon after
January 1, 1910. As to any decision
of the Washington supreme court, thut
would have no effect on ho law in this
state. The new law places a limit on
what a man may receive, and that limit
will bo the law of this state, regardless
of decisions of the supreme court ol
other states. !
Druggists will sell intoxicating
.liquors at their own peril. When fill-,
ing a prescription, it is up to the drug
gist to know whether the doctor has a
right to prescribe, and when a person
S resents a prescription to oe mien, xne
ruggist must also know whether the
party has a legal right to receive the
alcohol prescribed. In case a pnrty buys
an intoxicant, even on a physician's
prescription, the druggist is liable.
Judge Charles L. AteNary expressed
his opinion of the prohibition question
by, decluring that the new law should
be a success in Oregon, that California
will fall into line with other prohibi
tion states, and that finally there will
bo national prohibition.
When a party wishes a shipment
mado by express, it must be made
known by affidavit the name of the
carrier, point of delivery, amount to be
received ana tno amount inni nns oeen
received during the preceding four
weeks..
Professor Florian Von Esclien was
desirous of learning just how a .dealer
in sweet cider was to known when it
became hard cider and contained more
than one-half of one per cent of alcohol,
and therefore become unlawful to re
tail. The general opinion was that it
wns up to the denier to now whether
ho wns violating the lav.
?' There arc enough guilty men to
proBceutc, and there will be no need
of going after men who accidentally
violate the law," wns the opinion of
tho attorney general as to whether a
man was in danger who might accident
ally overstep the bounds.
Tho dinner was served by tne i.ucy
Ann Leo Circle of tho First SIcthoi
church. The next meeting of the '
O'clock club will be held January 4,
when Prof. Flonnn Von Esclien Will
speak on "The Hoils of Oregon."
