To Discuss Proposition
Of Making Oregon Dry

To place Oregon in the absolutely dry
column is the intention of the dry forces
in the state and q meeting has been call
ed for Monday evening at the public
library for general discussion of the
situation.
There is an impression that very few
of the church people of the state and
Others interested in prohibition know
that a ballot will be taken at the fall
election to place the state in the abso-
lutely dry column. The brewers will
also have an amendment to be voted on
and the object of the meeting Monday
evening is to discuss plans whereby all
who are interested in prohibition become
duly informed of the proposed amend
ments. Mr.. Hutton of Portland an
officer of the Anti-Saloon league, will
assist in organizing the campaign.
On the circular letter calling for the
meeting are the following names: Mrs.

A few days ago Ernst wrote to the
republican state committee calling at
tention to the fact that Governor
Hughes had been invited to take lunch
at the club which ha sheen displaying
the open shop card. Yesterday, in or
der to smooth over the difficulty that
quested the strikers to furnish 65 union
quested the strikrs to furnish 65 union
walters to serve the meal. Ernst, in
declining today said the unions could
not take such action in view of the
club s open shop attitude. He asserted
that while he regretted that so distin-
gushed man as Governor Hughes
must be Inconvenience, he saw no way
out of the difficulty.
Officials of the commercial club de-
clared later that Ernst s attitude would
make no difference in the arrange
ments for the dinner and that the club
was prepared for the emergency thus
presentd.

Galveston Not Hurt.

Galveston, Texas, Aug. l9.-Galves-
ton had passed through another tropical
hurricane today, just two days more
than a year since last year 3 destructive
storm
But while the storm took heavy
toll in lives and property year ago.
yesterdays mlow only provided an in
teresting spectacle for thousands of
persons who crowded the beach until
far into the night-something like u
movie on gigantic scale.
The wind attained its highest velocity
of 42 miles an hour early in the after
noon, The average for the day was "a
miles. The property damage was negi-
gible, being confined to few small
structures on the beach.
The weather bureau explained the
storms arrival on the coast 10 hours
ahead of schedule as due to the fact
that reports of its passage through
