We take the following from the, "Great
West, published at Denver. Colorado, by
Brick Pomeroy. Brick evidently has never
lived in Oregon: "In Oregon no rran is al
lowed to take a drink at public bar with
out first taking out S5 license, and the
newspapers publish lists from time to time,
of the men who have obtained licenses. It
is penal offense for saloon keeper to sell
to man unprovided with license"
A good law. When man wants to make
: nuisance of himself, he should pay for the
: 1rivelege.
