The clerks and car rlers spent Saturday night from the time the office closed at 6 o'clock to after midnight In moving the mall, rec ord, and smalj equipment from the old buildings to the new and arrang ing the rack, and furniture and sorting mull, which was moved from the old building. Every mall rack', piece of equipment, box. or article of furniture in the struc ture on upper Main street Is new, ex cepting uch equipment a the mall sack rock, and stamping machine. The building 1 finished In oak and the floor of the lobby Is tile. Kverythlng liosslhln to make the office modern has lM-en Installed by Its ouuacrs, xne Welnhart estate. A different system of numbering the Imxes than was used at the old office has been adopted at the new building so that with but few etreptlona box owners will be compeled to ask at the window and one of the employees will show tho patron the box and Its com bination. There sre 312 boxes In tne uew office, a few more than In the old building. The moving began at soon after 6 o'clock aa pomdble and all the equip ment was in the new structure by 10:30 o'clock. The mall from the old office, wa sorted before the clerks left for their homes. The first letter which was stamped In the office on upper Main street waa from the Ore gon City Enterriae to tho county clerk of Washington county. It Is nrobable that several Improve ments will be made In the new office as soon ss possible. It Is planned to oien the alley at the north Bide of the buildings so that alt the mall from the train may be brought through side door directly Into the back of the office and so tbat the rural mail car riers can drive their wagons closer to the side entrance.

Dr. Van Hrakle, county health officer, said that from his observance he found that the greater number of the large barns obeyed the ordinance and " was he small ones which violated It. Llvy Stlpp spoke and said that as far as he knew the authorities has done nothing to check the evil. Mrs. Caufleld said that the most ef fective way to reduce the number of flies was to remove the causes and not merely "swat the fly." U Stlpp spoke again and expressed his opinion that the county health officer, the chief of police, and the mayor should together work out a plan to fight the fly evil. T. W. Sullivan made a motion tbat the resolution of the Woman' club be adopted and the motion carried. It was announced at tne meeting mat the Southern Pacific will Install a ignal on Seventeenth street B.

March 31 Charles Hopkins, known In many coast cities as the "tottooed bandit," was srreBted at 1 o'clock thla morning at Vanhorn, on the Upper Skagit river, and tonight Is a primmer In the countr Jail at Mount Vernon. With almost every msn of the last year's team out for the 1914 squad and several plnyers who ehow up well at the practices, local fan predicts most successful year for the Commercial Club White Sox. In the spring of 1913 the organization won 14 out of 17 games played and the forecast has been made 1914 will equal If not eclipse any record In the past. At the recent election of the club the following officers were elected: Man ager. R. L. Holsclaw. and treasurer, Gilbert E. Long. Long, Carother. and Jamison, of last year's squad and 1)111 Nesko, of Camas, are out for pitcher this year. With men like these In the box. the club is assured of a good pitching staff at all times during the season. Another new man who la ex pected to Bhow up well Is Hanklns, a former O. A. C. fielder, who Is after tho Infield Job. The first game will probably be with the Oregon Ijiw School at Portland sometime In April. The date for this game has not been definitely settled. Other games will probably be arranged with Hood River, The Danes, Atnany, Salem. Estacada, Astoria and McMinn- vllle. The 1913 team defeated nines from a number of these towns. The manager has cunvased the busi ness part of the town and finds that the merchants are behind tne team in a body and enough money has been raised to Insure the success of the sqund financially. The try out a were to have been held Sunday but were postponed until a Inter date on account of the heavy rains. All practices are held on the Canemah grounds and the home games are played there. Or.

Hunt, of Garfield, who re- cntly filed his petition for the Repub lican nomination for Representative In the state legislature, was asked to become a candidate by hundreds of people living In his own section of the county, where he Is best known. In reply to the petition, Mr. Hunt Issued the following statement: I will use every honorable effort In support of any measure that I feel I for the best Interest of the people of this county and the state at large, re gardless of origin. We need fewer and better laws. We are spending too much money yearly In our county and state affairs for the results obtained. "The Oregon Code as regards roads and highways needs thorough revis ion. "Laws regarding schools, taxes and labor should have careful and thought ful consideration. If nominated and elected I will use every effort to the end that when my work is done, you will feel that your confidence and Judgment was not betrayed, and that you can truthfully and willingly say 'well done.'"

CIPAL ROCK CRUSHER PAVING OF MAIN STREET UP AGAIN Plan Proposed to Increase Speed Lim its to 15 or 18 Miles Pool Rooms Are Object of Attack TOM WORD BRANDS DANCE BELL AS WORST HE HAS EVER SEEN AT That Clackamas county fishermen and hunters were prepared for the opening of season Wednesday and took full advantage of the opportun lty the law offered is shown by the number of licenses which were sold by the county clerk during the last month and by the number of sportsmen who left the city Wednesday to enjoy the first fishing of the season. All but about 30 of the 312 hunting and fishing licenses sold during the month of March were for fishing. March exceeded February by ZiZ and January by 224. Tbe record day for the last month was March 21 when 30 licenses were sold, but March 29 fol lows close when 29 were distributed. Wednesday was the Oregon fisher man's red letter day. On the tablet of his inner consciousness is ldellbly stamped "April 1" It means to him throwing wide the portals of the Promised Land. On that day begins the open season for trout fishing. Tree, under the provisions of the present efficient game code, the per son equipped with a license may angle for 10-inch trout the year long. To the true sportsman, however, this le gal clause was Intended not to throw down the bars to promiscuous fishing, but merely an act enabling the angler to catch the so-called "salmon trout and steelhead. From April 1 to No vember 1 the size limit of trout which may be legally caught Is any over six Inches In length. Weather conditions for the last two weeks have not been of the best, but despite that fact every veteran angler who can avoid the grind of toil In tbe middle of the week left Wednesday for a hike to the stream of his choice aud religiously wet a line; his conscienco would smite him sorely should he neg lect this sacred duty.

"The worst affair we ever saw," was the verdict of Sheriff Word, of Multnomah county, regarding a dance at Hell station on the Cazadero line which was stopped by thj officers at an early hour Sunday morning. The dance happened to be in Clackamas county, and no arrests could be made by the Multnomah county officers, but tney put a stop to the proceedings, Intoxicants have been sold openly at tne place. Sheriff Word says. Manv of the dancers, he asserts, were in toxicated, and that among the women were many girls under 21 years old. "Sheriff Word did perfectly right In stopping the dance," said Sheriff Mass at Oregon City Monday. "I was notified of the dance, but I did not refuse to stop it, as was told Sher iff Word. I told the man who told me that there were no more cars to Port land Saturday night; that the reads to Hell were impassable for an automo bile, and a rig would not reach there until morning, and for him to get the local constable to stop the roughness, CHANGE CARRIERS C.

"The city has aeven miles of Improved ma cadam streets and we are now using from 6000 to 6000 cubic yards of crushed iwk a year," said Mr. Tem pleton. "The cost of this Is $1.85 a ysrd, making a total of from $9,000 to $11,000. Our labor costs which covers all street and other necessary work amounts to $9,000 a year. As the life of these streets extends to their limits so will the labor and material cost In crease which demonstrates the need of better facilities If we deserve high ef ficiency at a lower cost 'To change the system Is to pur chase machinery necessary for all street work. In other words we must spend money to save money. From ' causual observation I believe that the city would be tbe gainer If it owned and operated a good rock crusher. Its own steam roller. Its own surfacer, Its own leveller, Its own auto trucks, and its own teams and dump wagons." Mr. Templeton argued that under the present system, the city was the loser and the private contractor the gainer. One member of the council expressed bis belief that with a city- owned rock crusher,, half of the mon ey now nsed for street repair could be saved. Councilman Tooze said that he had heard that the gravel from the bed of the river would answer the purpose and suggegsted that the street com mittee Investigate the possibilities of placing a crusher on a barge and dredging tbe river. A resolution was passed at the meet ing instructing the city attorney to prepare an ordinance for the re-pav-lng of Main street from Moss street to Second street with vitrified brick. It is the plan of the council to bring this subject before, the property own ers along the street and secure a def inite opinion from them. That one or two of the pool rooms In Oregon City do not obey the ordi nance which regulates such places de spite the fact that the chief of police has warned them time after time was the statement of one of the council men. The applications of Bailey and Price and of F. F. Curran were before the council. The former was granted but In the case of the latter a permit for one week waa given which will be used until the council investigates the charges which were made. Councilman VanAuken said that time after time he had seen children In the pool hall of F. F.
