County Option Non-Partisan Issue


County option will never be by the party
route. The progress that has been made in temper
reform has been made largely through non
partisan methods. This iustifes the belief that it
would not be helpful to the of county option to
have it become part of any political partys platform
nor would it be to the best interest of any party
to make it part of their platform.
The vote in the legislature on county option has
always been a nonpartisan vote. The vote on tenn
perance measures IN the last general assembly
corded usually some thirty members from the Re
publican party twenty-five from the Progressive
party and twenty-one from the Democratic party
The Webb-Kenyon bill passed Congress two
years ago with vote of thirty-one Republicans and
thirtytwo Democrats.

Every who play will resent such tactics as
being employed by the Oregon VETS
The facts in the these:
At the township election held April 7 last Ore
gon, Illinois, went DRY by a majority of fifteen
votes, and the VETS at proceeded to contest.
The petition filed in the case a copy from
the "STOCK FORM" used by the liquor interests
with the further allegations that the county board
IN compliance with the general election laws of 1885
had divided the town into two election districts and
that, therefore the election was void because the
election held in instead of two districts and
for the further that the judges and clerks
not properly appointed and the majority of the
ballots voted initiated by Judge and passed
to the voters by another
The contention as to division, was based upon
amendment to Section 30 of the general election
law, passed in 1885 and further amended in Ioo3 and
the court held that the amendment of 1885, applied
only to elections held under the general election law
and not to town meeting and election of town off
GERS; that the county board having failed take any
action in pursuance of the amendment of 1908 that
therefore the election properly held and further
the custom prevailing for many years of holding
town elections at place in the town of Oregon,
was sufficient to egalize the election especially as it
shown that no voter was deprived of the right
to vote
The court further held that the statute requiring
the judge who Endorsed the ballot hand it person
ally to the voter directory only.
The judge being a native of Oregon suggested
the ACCESSIBILITY of having another Judge preside dur
ing the hearing at least act in advisory capacity
attorneys for both the vets and drys assured the
judge that, they satisfied try the before

ing all the species of wild animals,

WORK
OF HIGH PUPILS
Gowns, Millinery, JeweIry and
Many Other Novelties Shown
at Library.

Gowns, millinery, jewelry. furni-
ture, poster cards and advertising
booklets vie with each other for the
honors of the exhibit at the Free
Public Library. The articles are all
the products of the local High School
children. The exhibit will remain
open until June I.
Dresses and hats made by the girls
of the Newark schools attracted hum
dreds. These articles were made from
designs drawn by the girls them
selves. They will be worn by the
same girls at the exhibit.
Another exhibit which divided
honors with the dresses and the hats
was that of jewelry of various kinds
designed and made by pupils Of the
first two grades of the high school.
1t was greatly admired. 1t is hoped
to give the pupils an education along
simple lines in jewelry designing and
making, so that after completing a
two-year course they can go right
into one of the many jewelry manu-
featuring concerns in this city and
be able to cut off some OF the re-
quired apprenticeship period and at
the same time have a much higher
education than the average appren-
tice.
A very attractive exhibit Is that of
the furniture made by the scholars.
There is some that could we'll grace
the finest home in the city. The
East Side High exhibits a complete
miniature house ready for the sheath
ing. Some of the work that Is truly
commercial are the poster cards and
advertising booklets designed by the
scholars, which are really works of
art.
The exhibit shows manual training
In all Its forms and contains work of
all the schools through the grades
and the high schools. There Is handi-
craft work of all kinds, wood turn
ing and machine shop work shown.
There are some good samples OF
sheet metal work displayed.
As whole the exhibit was really
great surprise to the majority of the
large number of persons who visited
the exhibit last night. No admission
fee is charged.
The announcement was made at the
exhibit last night that the young
ladies' in the graduating class of the
East Side High, who number about a
dozen, have designed their gradual
ing dresses and have them about
completed. They are all of the same
material, white lawn, but each is de-
| signed according to the individual
taste of the pupil.
