Responsibilities Rest Heavy On American Citizens, Says Dr. Ford In Prelude to Sermon Sunday He Shows the Duty Which it Placed on Every Voter Points Out Questions Which Must be Settled In a prelude to his sermon last Sun day evening Dr. T .B .Ford, pastor of the First Methodist Episcopal church, spoke on "Responsibilities of the Citi zen in the Present Political Crisis." He said: " Citizenship Is acquired assumption. And there are other facta of equal, or more Importance, accen tuating the present as a crisis. There Is a growing distrust of some of the features of our system of representa tive government, and a corresponding by birth, or naturalization. The ac-i determination to take back into the quired relation Involves rights and re- hands of the people, where they prl sponsibllitles, the latter commensurate! marily belong certain powers hitherto with the former. The responsibilities can not be thrown off, nor disregard ed, nor trifled with, without culpabl ness of the Individual, In Justice to oth er members of the social compact, and Injury to the state. "Old political lines are breaking up, delegated to representatives, and as result we have already the initiative, the referendum and the recall, and these steps will never be retraced, and there is no power to stay the movement. Here are some of the Issues In the FOR ALBANY DEBATE At the request of the Oregon City debating team, the question which was to have been used in the coming con test between the local school and Al bany was limited and modified. As originally worded the question applied to the Democratic tariff in a general way and Its effect upon the country, but It Is now worded, "Resolved, thai the general welfare of the United State would be fostered by a complete application of tariff for revenue only." The opposition of the Oregon City team was to the question as first stated that the two sides of the argu ment was not equally divided. Oregon City will debate the nega tive side of the question. The local team will be composed of Elx-rt Char man and William Miller with Miss Roberta Schuebel as substitute. waterworks Them, bonds shall be in denominations of $.'i00 or liooo each, bearing 5 per cent Interest.

Any proposition for additional bonds must first be submit te! to the approval of the people of Oregon City. Aa soon as the water system contemplated shall be fully conudeted, approved and nccepted by the committee, and nil debts are paid, the system shall be turned over to the properly constituted authorities of Oregon City. The authority given Ihe committee Is expressly confined and limited to the acquisition of necessary water rights or title to a water sup ply on the south fork of the Clacka mas river by outright purchase or condemnation and for the construction of necessary mains and pipe lines.
