HIS GOODNESS
PREVENTED
A STAMPEDE
INCIDENT SIMILAR TO THAT AT
CANONSBURG HAPPENED on OP-
ENING OF PICTURE SHOW HERE
- OPERATOR THREW FILMS
THROUGH WINDOW.

The story contained IN Mondays
news dispatches relative to the panic
in a moving picture theatre in Can
onsburg, Pa, in which more than a
score Of persons were killed in the
rush for the doors which followed the
cry OF Fire" after a film had caught
fire, recalls a similar accident which
occurred in Salem several years ago
when Mr. Mott opened the Vaudette
on Court street, Salems first moving
picture show. The quick work and
presence Of mind Of Frank Splitstone,
who was operating the picture ma
chine at that time not only prevented
a fire, but also kept the audience from
knowing that anything unusual had
happened, thus avoiding the possibil-
ity OF cry Of fire.
One day shortly after the moving
picture theatre was opened here, one
OF the films caught fire from one of
the lamps. Realizing the possibility
of a bad fire on account Of the inflam-
mable material used in the films,
Splitstone grabbed the machine and
hurled II through the window opening
onto the sidewalk. Fortunately no
one was passing at the time, and those
inside the building knew nothing of
the occurrence. II the operator in
Canonsburg had acted as coolly and
promptly as did Splitstone, score Of
lives might have been saved. Split
stone is now operating a machine in
a moving picture theatre in Llnesyllle,
Pa, which is $50 miles north Of Can
onsburg.

PROHIBITION
A FAILURE IN
GRANTS PASS
EDITOR PUTNAM OF THE MED
FORD MAIL.TRIBUNE CLIPS AND
COMMENTS ON GRANTS PASS
PROHIBITION.

The Pacific Outlook, published at
Grants Pass, complains loudly and
bitterly that the prohibition law in
Grants Pass is ignored and that the
pretense at enforcement is a sorry
farce. Says the Outlook:
THE entire corps Of city officials,
from the mayor down to the dog
catcher pass the joints where the law
Is violated every day OF their lives
They are all sufficiently posted in
this line to recognize the fumes Of
liquor as they pass the doors. They
know that men in all stages of intox-
icatiOn are reported hanging about
these joints. They know that boozers
are being taken to the office of the
police judge and fined for drunken
ness and disorder. They know that
scores of citizens have the best kind
of evidence against these joints. But
we never hear Of any raids being
made upon these places. There is
never an attempt on the part of any
official to piece together these bits
of circumstantial' evidence and make
a case against any of these violators. 3"
Then the Outlook concludes:
with these conditions existing,
what could be more unfair and lncon-
sistent than the repeated remark
why don't you temperance people do
something about this?' Verify, It Is
enough to make an angel smile in
ridicule through his tears of sorrow-
this spectacle of a cultured Christian
community tolerating and condoning
an offense against Cod and man,
simply because sufficiently large
majority of its citizens has not yet
been convinced that such an offense
Is an offense."
In spite of prohibition, Grants Pass
is far more wide open" than Med
ford Liquor of all kinds is hrazenly
openly sold on Sunday-which Is not
the case in Medford.
1t is said that prohibition cannot
be enforced in Grants Pass because
juries will not convict But this does
not excuse the county and city off
clals for violating their oaths of Of
flee, and not enforcing the law.
Prohibition is enforced in other
places and would be in Grants Pass

SECRETARY
STATES HIS
POSITION

II understand that Judge Slater
questions the propriety Of my action
in engaging w. S. U'Ren to assist the
encouragement in defending the
state in the suit in equity brought by
the University of Oregon to compel
the secretary of state to leave the
University referendum measure off
the ballot said Secretary of State
Olcott today. Il have enlisted the
support of Mr.. U'Ren in the legal
struggle because I consider the very
existence of the initiative and ref
erendum to be at stake, and have Sc
lected him as the one man in Oregon
most worthy of the defense of these
laws. II the courts should uphold
the case Of the University, through
the allegations specifically directed
at the secretary of states office. it
would practically put the Oregon sys-
tenn out of business for once and all.
"The complaint alleges that this
office should pass on the legality and
validity of all the signatures attached
to initiative and referendum petit
tions. The absurdity of this plea
will be appreciated when 1t is remem
bered that for three months or more
the University people have had law
yers detectives, photographers and
handwriting experts at work trying
to pick out the alleged forged sig
natures on the University petitions.
II the court should hold that the
secretary of safe must determine the
validity of the signatures, II will
mean that the Office would have to be
closed, and the entire force sent out
on gumshoe expeditions to pick out
the bad names from the good on all
petitions filed hereafter.
"The complaint further alleges
among other frivolous things. that
the petitions should be invalidated
because they are directed to Frank
w. Benson, secretary of state, and
not to myself as such officer also
because some of the lines on the
printed sheets containing the sigma
lures are not numbered from TO
90.
I am in favor of the University of
Oregon getting the money appropri-
ated for its use by the legislature.
and my only interest in the forth
coming litigation Is to see that the
Initiative and referendum shall not
be crippled, At a recent meeting of
the Board OF Rengents-of which |
am eN-ohcio a member-the Ques-
ton came up as to whether the eX-
pense of the Injunction suits against
the secretary OF state could be paid
out OF the maintenance fund of the

u was not q proper charge against /

other and outside sources, and Of I
tered the suggestion that the Board .
OF Regents then and there subscribe l

dent 10 the prosecution of the suit.

lion to stand In the way Of every ef-
fort that | may properly make tol
