U'REN ANO CHAUTAUQUA
W. S. U'Ren, disciple of political
and social unrest, invaded the
grounds of the Willamette Valley
Chautauqua Assembly at Gladstone
I'ark Sunday and It appears that be
became peeved because one speaker
was substituted for another and made
an unholy show of himself as a con
' salience..
Anything that V'Ren may do nee4
astonish no one. He has been stir
ring up trouble In one way and anoth
er In Oregon for these many years.
He eau up trouble. In a community
vhere all was peaceable U'Ren would
have no place.
It la Indeed a little thing to do tor
CRcn o go to Gladstone Park and
kick np a muss over nothing. The
Chautauqua is an institution tor edu
cational uplift It frys no political
fish. It does not boost U'Ren and his
co-workers on the Joesph Fels pay
roll. It is not trying to saddle an un
fair system ot Single Tax on our
State. The Chautauqua is merely at
tempting to give to thousands ot peo
ple decent amusement for a fortnight
each year, and It Is extremely bad
taste for U'Ren to stand np on his
bind legs and protest because the In
stitution was unable to carry out its
scheduled programme.
Sit down, U'Ren. You are not a
Roosevelt yet!
SINGLE TAX PARALYSIS
What are the Single Tax people fig
uring on? What is their present
game? Why don't they come out and
explain all points of their proposed
constitutional amendment? Do they
want the people to know that It Is
their desire to kill Oregon Industrial
ly? Do they want the voters to know
they are working to kill the goose that
lays the golden egg? Do they want
to tell the unsuspecting public that
our great industries dependent upon
our timber resources would be great
ly Injured and that through the con
stitutional amendment they are work
ing for, labor will probably eventual
ly stand the brunt ot their attacks?
Do they want to tell these things?
Their amendment as worded means
all these things when given a careful
consideration and of course the single
taxers will hold their papera until the
last moment so the people won't be
bothered with them while they have
time to study and learn what they
mean.
TERMINAL RATE8
The Oregon City Terminal Rate As
sociation is if nothing else getting
Oregon City on the freight map of the
country. The work on terminal rates
has brought to the attention of the
commission the exhorbitant rates ef
fective between Portland to Oregon
City on the first four classes and an
order from them demanding reduction
to living rates.
As soon as the Supreme Court de-
clues the case now before it as the
validity cf th fourth section of the in
terstate commerce act regarding long
and short haul rates, Oregon City may
expect further action in her favor
Terminal Rates which will not only
aid our present business but bring to
our city new enterprises, the greatest
stimulant to greater prosperity.
OREGON CITY A SHIPPING POINT
Oregon City ships 300 tons per day
of manufactured goods and many tons
of farm products. Oregon City re
ceives TOO tons per day of logs and
ether raw materials for Its Industries
and many tons of supplies for Its
stores and business bouses. It is safe
to say therefore that Oregon City
bandies 1000 tons per day of freight
or 310,000 tons per annum or In other

could earn tl.M per day wbeu be bad

allowed himself lo have dreams ot

this reason and becnusw be was uo
talker aud diJu't mix up with politic
that be caiue to b looked upou aa a
rather dull man.
On bis Bftletb birthday tbe earpen

"Why. be looked au altogether dlf

up aa brisk as a lighting rod man. I
couldn't help but wonder If be bad

Next day Amos Scberiiierhom packed
bis clothes in a satchel and bended for
a village tblrty miles away. He euter
ed It on the second day. There hud
been two or three recent robberies.
and tbe constables were on the alert.

In trout of a faruier'a barn Amos sat

and came out aud asked questlous aud
finally ordered bim to move ou aud

lie followed the wayfarer Into the vll

picious person and bad bim arrested.
Amos made no kick aud was arraign

days with great celerity. Tbe coo
stable slapped his moutb when be
started to protest, tbe judge said be
looked like an unhung villain, and tbe
jailer slammed bim Into a cell wltb so
much violence tbat be was thrown

Amos Scbermerborn served bis thirty
days in JaU and waa then warned to
leave town witbln half an bour. He
made straight for tbe office of a law-

something to be talked of. Tbe farmer
bo bad kicked bim was arrested for
assault and battery, tbe constable wbn
had run him In was arrested for false
Imprisonment, the Judge got a sum
mons for defamation of character, and
the Jailer was arrested on tbe same
charge as tbe farmer.
Tbe Jndge bad been a Judge for
fifteen years, and he bad always
thought It witbln bis province to call
a prisoner a son of s gun or any other
old thing be happened to think of.
He now learned tbat bis legal duties

had defamed the character of a good

"How much a day?"
"Fifty cents and board."
"1 can do better."
"Ob, yon can? What alia yon Is that

By John, there ought to be a jail big

"I am not a tramp." mildly replied
Amos.
"Oh, yon are a gentleman, mebbef"
"Well, 1 can pay my way."
And tbe carpenter dug down and
brought oat bH soli and held it np to

Charles Edward Russell, the well
known editor and economist, lectured
to one of the largest audiences in the
history of the Chautauqua Sunday
night. His subject, "Soldiers of the
Common Good," was ably handled and
mado a great Impression. Mr. Bus
sell was to have spoken In the after
noon, but the train upon which he
arrived in Portland waa lute, and I.ou
J. ileauchamp lectured In hi stead.
When Ileauchamp began shaking W.
S. U'Ren Jumped Into the limelight
and demanded of the management
why Russell bad not appeared. Jones,
the platform manager, explained that
Russell had been delayed but would
be on hand In tbe evening. This did
not satisfy U'Ren and several Social
ists from Portland, and they started
to leave. Secretary Cross explained
that tho possibility ot a change In the
program had been announced several
times and tbat tbe failure of Russell
to appear was no fault of the man
agement He said, however, that all
persons who desired their money
back could have it by applying at the
gate. Nineteen took advantage of the
offer. U'Ren waa ot the departing
party.
The program started with the som
ber school at 8:11 o'clock Ileauchamp
lectured on "New Ideas on an Old
Subject" In the Chautauqua forum at
11 o'clock.
GRAPES
TOO GOOD
BUGS.
FOR ROSE'
The rose chafer does much Injury
to grapes, often destroying the entire
crop soon after blossoming. In small
gardens the vines may be protected
by covering with mosquito netting.
Where this Is Impracticable, spraying
will bold them In check. Farm and
Home says the New York experiment
station has bad excellent success In
using eight pounds arsenate ot lead
and two gallons molasses with 100
gallons ot water. Spray should be
applied as soon as the rose bugs ap
pear. For the grape root worm spray
twice, the first spraying about one
week after the first beetles appear and
the second spraying 10 days later.
TRU8T NOT MOTH BALLS ONLY.
Clothing and Furs Should Be Packed
so that Moths Cannot Get In.
Many housekeepers have the mis
taken idea tbat camphor, mothballs,
or similar preparations, will "kill"
moths, or prevent their ravages, and
that clothes packed away with plenty
ot mothballs are safe. Many house
keepers have learned that this Is a
mistake, after losing perhaps valuable
garments.
The fact of the matter is that moth
balls, camphor, cedar, etc., are not
moth killers, but only moth repellents,
that Is: Clean clothes free from moth
eggs, properly packed away with moth
repellents, will not attract the moth
adults.
The household editor of Farm and
Home says: The proper way to pack
away woolen winter clothes Is first to
air and brush thoroughly, to make
sure no moth eggs have found lodg
ment In them. They may be packed
In any receptacle, aa long as it Is free
from cracks. Line with several thick
nesses of newspaper, and pack away
clothes with layers of newspaper be
tween and camphor or mothballs
wrapped In paper. Tuck each layer
ot newspaper In well around the
clothes newspaper (or rather, the
printers' Ink) Is another moth repel
lent Have tbe top layer paper, put
the cover on and seal by putting paper
over the cracks.
That Is all there Is to It: Putting
the clothes away In a clean, moth
free state, and sealing them up so no
moths can possibly get in. Furs can
be packed and securely sealed In
heavy paper bags using two bags,
one within the other, each carefully
sealed and they will be perfectly
safe.

GOVERNOR TO CLOSE
rUI.KM, Or., July 10. Confronted
with opiHisltlmi by the local llrlck
layers' I'll Ion to the nianti'iicturo ot
brick at I lie penitentiary brick yard,
Governor West today directed a let
ter to the olltfors and members of the
I union advising thmn that the alnte
1 had no Intention of engaging lu the
I brick business and that as soon as the
! requisite number of brick needed for
i the state buildings has been luanu-
faclured the brickyard will be closed
' down.
lie declares that the brickyard, lo
begin with, placed brick on the open
market only after he was requested
to permit It to do ao by the unions,
and ttmt neither requests from any or
gnnUation or a famine In the brick
business will Induce hint to manufact
ure any more brick during the present
season. The letter follows:
"It has bmn brought to my atten
tion through the columns ot Mispress
that a resolution was passed by your
I union declaring against the laying ot
brick manufactured at the Oregon
State Penitentiary and giving out the
linprcaslon that this office waa mark
1 etlng prison mado brick In ronipetU
, lion with that tiiaite hr free labor.
; "I wish to call your attention to
; the fact that no brick waa sold by tbe
Oregon State Prison during my ad
ministration until I received a request
from the president of your honorable
body and a letter, signed by the offl
cers and carrying the seal of yourun
i Ion, stating your willingness to lay
these brick. As the request appear
ed to be promoted by ar shortage of
brick, this office, being glad of an
opportunity to assist In any way In
relieving a situation which was keep
ing tunny men out of employment,
consented to put the brick upon the
market. We took If for granted thui
when conditions had changed so as to
make the sale ot prison made brick
unnecessary or undesirable we would
he officially not I tied by your honor
able body and would be governed ac
cordingly. I'P to date uo such com
munication has been received but, on
tho other hand, this office has been
besieged not only by tbose who were
desirous of purchasing brick but by
certain manufacturers, asking that
that we release more of the brick In
the prison yard In order that a brick
famine might be averted. In spite ot
these requesta. however, we have per
mitted but 4000 brick to be taken
from the yard and these by persons
who needed them for special pur
posea or hurry-up Jobs and wore with
out time to aend away for thorn.
"The prison has no Intention ot
launching into the brick business.
What sales have been made have
been based upon the letter sent this
office by your union. All the brick
we have on hand have been made for
the use of the state and will be held
for that purpoae. We were willing to
continue further, however, and make
sufficient tofcover any ahortage there
might be In the brick market. In or
der that work on buildings now being
erected might not be delayed and la
bor thrown out of employment"

CLEAN MILK ESSENTIAL
Are You Doing Your Part for the Sake
of the Nation?
Every man, woman and child In the
United States uses milk or milk prod
ucts in some form. Are you doing
your part to keep your milk clean
and theirs? One of the worst sources
ot trouble is lack of cleanliness In
tbe care of the milk utensils.
One of the chief things to remember
Is that milk utensils should never be
rinsed In hot water wlthodt being
first rinsed In cold water. If hot water
Is used, milk tbat may remain In the
vessel is very likely to be ao harden
ed that It can with difficulty be wash
ed off.
Rinse first In cold water, wash In
hot water, using a washing powder
If desired, then rinse in boiling water.
In the summer, set utensils in sun
light to dry. The final rinsing In hot
water not only kills germs but so
beats the palls that they will cool off
quickly. , thus lessening tbe chance
of susting. It Is economy to buy only
the best grade of palls, cans and
strainers A rusty pall shoud never
be used or one in which tho. seams
have become slightly opened.
A milk house aids vry much In
the proper care of milk and milk
utensils. The size of the house, says
Farm and Home, should be propor
tioned to the number of cows milked.
Some will find that a house as small
as 8 by 10 feet will be sufficiently
large. Buch a house should have
concrete floor, cement plaster walla,
or at least walls that can be readily
washed, and enough windows to let
In plenty of light. In summer, door
and windows should be screened.
PEARLS FOR FARMER AND WIFE.
Lambs gain In weight during their
first month largely In proportion to
milk received. For this reason atten
tion should be paid to the milking
qualities of ewes.
Here Is the recipe for an excellent
sarsaparilla decoction to purify the
blood: 81lce 1-4 pound sarsaparilla
root thin and put over fire In two
quarts water. Simmer 4 hours, strain,
pounding root to mash, return to the
liquid and boll down to 2 pints. Strain,
cool and bottle. Tbe dose Is 1 table
spoon in glass cold or bot water,
sweetened to taste.
The modern method of sealing Jelly
glasses with melted paraffin has many
advantages over tbe old-fashioned
method of covering wltb paper. Tbe
wax can be saved from year to year,
melted over again and need many
times. Farm and Home.
