Communicated

The assertion has been made again
and again that Local Option has in
jured and been detrimental to the
interests and prosperity of Oakland.
This is false statement, just the re-
verse being the case, as the facts will
prove. The town has been benefited,
and if the law were rigidly enforced
we would see an era of unprecedented
success for our mountain town. Any
impartial person will agree that our
town is far more quiet and peaceful
and therefore a more desirable place
in which TO live and rear a family
than when the saloons were open.
Then the lookup and Jail boosted of
many inmates, now an arrest is the
rarest occurrence. Ask mothers, wives
or children if local option is not a
blessing. Little ones are clothed who
went half naked, little mouths fed

workers of the county. We learn

the Union to hold an Institute at
Oakland later in the season.
