BIG TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT
Plans Formed for Making Many
Towns and Counties Of WASH
ingtou Dry Zones

Thursday an important meeting
was held In Pullman and a boom
launched for temperance in the
county and state. fhe Whitman
County Anti-Saloon League held a
meeting, was recognized and start
ed a campaign for an election to be
acid in every unit in the county, for
the purpose of voting on the liquor
question in compliance with the new
local option law. 1t is hoped to ex-
tend the movement to include every
unit in the state and hold elections
in all of them at the same time.
Rev. N. II. Marvin, pastor of the
First Methodist church Of Pullman,
was elected president 20 succeed Rev
l.. p Schooling, who moved from the
county and state some time ago. Dr.
j. Earl Else retains the Office of sec
rotary. Vacancies on the executive
committee were filled by the addi-
ton of Professor II. A. Ellis, sdpe in
tendert of Pullman city schools; and
Joseph McEachran, merchant of
Oakesdale. Senator McCroskey, of
Garfield, was appointed a committee
of one TO write to Senator Cottrell,
of Seattle. and enlist him in the
cause of temperance In Whitman
county and secure his aid in making
a fight here.
President Marvin was requested to
call a mass meeting of the temperance
people Of Whitman county at Garfield
between July 4 and 10 for the pur-
pose of arranging a campaign to put
Whitman county "dry" and to hold
an election in every precinct or unit
N the county on the same day. The
idea is to have elections in so many
places at the same time that the sa-
loon forces cannot unite in any one
locality and over-awe or overwhelm
the temperance element.
Secretary Else was instructed to
communicate with Boyd P. Doty.
state superintendent of the anti-sa-
loon league, with view to arranging
for the temperance people to circu-
late petitions asking for ali election
on the saloon question in every unit
in the state on the same day, and
thus have such a long and broad
front mat the saloon forces can not
combine and defeat the temperance
people as they might be able to do
were one or a few localities to be
voting at once, instead Of all being
engaged in the fight or the same day.
at is up to the temperance people
to unite on this important question
and nave elections in so many places
on the same day that the saloon
forces will, of neces sity, have to
scatter their fire instead of coneen-
trating on one point as they would do,
II but a few isolated places were vot-
ing on the question" said Senator
McCroskey, who is taking an active
interest in the proposition and is try
ing hard to arouse the temperance
people to the necessity of prompt
and united action. II this Is done
it VIII be impossible for the saloon
element to send ''1oaters" to all
places and will lessen the danger OF
Illegal votes for the saloon.

Others Are in Favor

Property in New street, HAIR
rison, are divided on the subject of
what material to use in paving that
street. A notice of intention to pave

q previous meeting of the Harrison

last night a petition was received from
property-owners asking that telford be
used.
At the same time another petition
from another group of property-owners
vas received requesting the Council not
to change. but TO use bitulithic. When
both had been read Mayor Riordan
figured the number of lineaf feet repre-
scented In each petition and found thai
those who favored telford owned 500
feet, while those who wanted bitulithic
represented 1856 feet
As the owners who preferred telford
were therefore in the majority the
Council rescin5ed the notice of inten-
ton to pave with bitulithic and in its
stead adopted to use telford with a
tarvia coating.
