s'In event the situation throughout
the nation becomes such that the rati-
ficaton Of the amendment is dependent
upon the action Of the Oregon legis
lature. | win give careful and serious
consideration TO the convening Of a
special session. Or, if majority Of the
members Of both houses voluntarily re-
quest this office to call a special ses-
sion. | will do so. In either ease, how
ever, wish it distinctly understood
that the session viii be called eontin-
gent only UPON the agreement that the
members will bear their own expenses,
and to forego the payment of their per
diem on the part of the state. Should
such a session be called, | would expect
the members to merely pass upon the
subject matter before them, and no at
tempt should be made to exercise their
function in passage of general legisla.
tion. The act Of the Legislature in this
ratification would be supreme, the ex-
eeutive offices have neither power to
approve or TO veto a resolution Of rati-
fication. y

Delicate Mechanism

Despite its scope, Swift & Company is
a business of infinite details, requiring
infinite attention.
Experienced men must know livestock buying
with a knowledge of weight price, the amount and
quality of meat the live animals will yield
Each manufacturing operation must be done
with expert skill and scientific precision A highly
perishable product must be handled with speed and
care to avoid loss
Chemists, engineers accountants and other
specialists required to take care of our intricate
problems.
Alert wisdom and Judgment must be used in
getting stocks of goods into the open channels of
demand through our four hundred branch houses
Branch house organizations must show activity and
energy to sell at the market in the face of acute
competition from other large packers and hundreds
of small ones.
All these requirements of intelligence loyalty,
devotion to the task are met in the personnel of
Swift & Company Yet the profit is only a fraction
of cent per pound with costs at minimum
How can the workings of this delicate human
mechanism be improved upon?

WINE MAKERS PLAN
AN EXODUS TO MEXICO
At Least $4,000 Will Go Across the
Border When Prohibition Laws
Take Effect, 1t Is Said.

MEXICO CITY, Mexico.-As re-
suit of the prohibition amendment to
the constitution of the United States
there promises to be wholesale emil
grafton of vine growers and wine
makers from California to Mexico.
Information has been received
from that state that there are in the
neighborhood of 100000 persons en-
gagged in that industry who are look
ing toward Mexico as affording the
only possible relief from the ruin
with which they are threatened by
the prohibition laws.
They are the owners of hundreds
of thousands of acres of wine grapes
which will become of little value with
the enforcement of the amendment,
since the varieties of fruit adapted
to wine making are not suitable for
other purposes, except to a limited
extent.
There are extensive areas, especial
ly in the northern portion of Mexico,
which possess all the requisites of soil
and climatic conditions for the
growth of grapes and the making of
wine to fully as great an extent and
of fully as high a character as Cali
fornia.

investigation she learned that her
room had been sprayed with "Tor-

son. Torment is new preparation

with not soil clothing nor furniture,
and is absolutely harmless to human
beings. Torment" is put up in Csc

what Capt. Wirz and the Confederate
authorities did to relieve the situa-
ton. AS Capt. Blanchard talked with
those returning" federal soldiers
and saw the despair depicted on their
countenances, he would do a grateful
act to write brief account of what
he saw. Let US keep the record
straight.
J. M. Page, in his book, tells of the
disappointment and the detection of
the prisoners at Andersonville when
the delegation sent by Capt. Wirz
(whom Page selected) returned from
Washington without success, the
Lincoln government refusing their
request for exchange or parole, and
also for medicines for the federal
hospital. Losing all hope thousands
gave up in despair, uttering anathe-
mas upon the government that had
abandoned them.
There was another tender of pris-
oners to their federal friends besides
the one spoken of by Capt. Blanch-
ard. Under command of Capt. John
Rutherford, Gen. Cobb sent the pris-
oners to Florida. When in sight of

HALF MILLION POUNDS OPIUM
STRUGGLED IN TO MEET DE-

The special narcotic committee ap-
pointed by former Secretary of the
Treasurer McAdoo to investigate the
drug traffic in the United States has
completed it's report and presented it
to Secretary of the Treasury Glass.
The report is of most sensation
al character. 1t shows the United
States as the largest consumer of
drugs in the world, with more than
100000 addicts, and more than
SCI, 100000 spent annually by drug
users to satisfy the habit.
The committees table for the per
capita consumption by the United
States and foreign countries is a
grim story in itself. The table fol-

and he and the Confederate guards

and he and the Confederate guards
made haste to get away.
The story of Andersonville has new
err been fully written. Everyone
knows of the $4,000 taken to Savan-
nah and given without equivalent to
the commanders of the federal gun
boats. And what fatal ''gift" it
proved! That gift caused retaliatory
measures to be imposed on all Con-
federate prisoners, and the great
death rate among them dated from
/ those "retaliatory measures" OF
course, those $4,000 were the ema-
ciates, and their condition raised a
howl for retaliatory measures, and
soon all Confederate prisoners were
emaciates. Fatal gift!
Pictures and photographs were
taken of these federal "emaciates"
and printed in periodicals and held
up by preachers before their con-
gregations, and so great was the
howl raised that the federal war de-
partment ordered "retaliatory meas
ures," cutting down the already
scanty rations of Confederate pris-
oners. Many deaths followed these
"retaliatory measures" and the eff
feet was so horrible that the death
rate of Confederate prisoners ex-
ceeded that of the federal prisoners
-Andersonville included.
Our people should inform them
selves on the "prison" history of the
sixties.

Hon. w. Z. Steed, of Butler, in
an able and eloquent Memorial Day
speech delivered on April 26th at
Bullochville, gave some interesting
information as to the relative
strength of the northern and south
ern armies, which is worthy of pre-
serving as a matter of history. These
figures were compiled by Mr.. c. G..
Lee, the best authority on civil war
statistics, and published in the Balti-
more Sun.
We give this information because
it contains matter which every
southern boy should know.
Total enlistments for the northern
or federal army were 2,778,304 as
against 100000 in the Confederate
army.
The foreigners and negroes in the
federal army aggregated 68O,917.
Hence there were more foreigners
and negroes in the federal army than
the total number of men enlisted in
the Confederate army by 80,917.

Who's to blame for the whyness
and the highness of the beef steak?
During the last thirty days live beef
values have declined anywhere from
$3.50 to as much as SIS a hundred

centers throughout the country. The
break, which is listed among the
heaviest in the history of the trade,
has not yet been reflected in the con-
sumers' price.
Packers assert that their wholesale
prices follow the live market closely
and even the slightest loss is record

Thus it is established that while
the South was blockaded and cut off
from practically all medical supplies
more Confederate soldiers died in
northern prisons than federal sol
diers died in southern prisons, al
though the South had more of the
federal prisoners to care for by So
900. And Notwithstanding this fact
fewer prisoners from the North died
in southern prisons by 1866 men.

Opium total
Addicts Use so Per Cent.


Ninety per cent. of the drugs con-
sumed in this country are used for
other than medicinal purposes and
opium comes in this category, accord
ing to the report.
The traffic is increasing by leaps
and bounds. Virtually all the larger
cities report increases, and one esti-
mate of the nations number of ad-
diets included in the report is 4,000,-
900 persons. One quarter of these
100000 drug users, or 100000, are
unemployed.
1t is estimated that 237,655 per-
sons are receiving treatment in an
effort to loosen the hold drugs have
on them. The strides the peril is TAX
ing, though, are shown by the esti-
mate that 18,299,397 narcotic pre-
scriptions were filled in the last year.
