VISIT BY REPRESENTATIVE
NATIONAL REFORM BUREAU
Hon W. c. Nichols, Northwest Rep
resentative of Reform Bureau Of
Washington, ID. c., Addresses Large
Crowd-Legal Phases of the Liquor
Traffic Discussed-Prophcsle Pro-
hibitlon for Northwest.
lsnecinl Corresnondence.l }

Athena, Ore, March 22.-The Hon.
w. c. Nichols, the northwest repre-
sensitive. of the International Reform
Bureau of Washington, d. c., ad-
dressed a large crowd of people at the
First Methodist church last evening.
Mr.. Nichols took for his subject the
legal phases of the liquor traffic, and
being a lawyer of 25 years experience
made II possible for him to present
one of the ablest arguments to which
the people of Athena have ever lis
tened. Mr. Nichols said in substance
that the people carry the keys to the
saloons-that they bring the misery
and degradation that follows in the
wake of saloons upon themselves. He
further said that If we would abolish
our license laws and keep out OF
partnership with the liquor men that
he would close our saloons for us
on the grounds that they are a COM
mon nuisance.
Mr.. Nichols is buoyant and full OF
hope for the success of his cause and
confidently believes that the states
of Oregon, Idaho and Washington
will have statewide prohibition In
the near future.
