Indiana is considering the advisa-

rather novel idea is not without pre-
cedent. when we come to think about
it. We have become so accustomed
TO the idea of licensing the seller of
iDtoxicants, that the feasibility of
granting a permit to the drinker has
been lost sight of. 1t has become
Il common practice to safeguard the
public. by requiring person engaged
In work that has attached to it great
risk or responsibility, to carry a Ii
cense showing their fitness for that
particular work. Alcohol, like cleo
trieity, steam, dynamite, ect. is a
dangerous commodity when careless

show that he is capable of safely

The Oregon immigration for 1916
numbered, according to some &C
counts, not less than 5000 souls. Our
people still rolled westward in a
mighty wave. The history of that
great west-bound movement is well
