The chief stepped up to (he machine and laid down the law. "Why, I did not know there was !uch an ordinance," stated the muii. "I have been up w ith Dr. Melssncr. The doctor told me that there was no ordi nance against standing my cur on Main street as long as I wanted to."

About an acre of land was cleared of brush and grass. One hundred men have promised to turn out next Sunday to tackle the job and boosters for the project are con vinced that every corner of the four acres will be cleared by the lime thoy are through Sunday night. The Island Is covered with giant Cottonwood and maple trees but a rank growth of tall grass nnd brush Is so thick that It s almost Impossible to walk across it. The Commercial club with the aid of the council la now planning a rustic arch bridge from the mainland to tho islund and the mutter wus brought up at a special meeting of the Gladstone council Monday night. The island was a gift to lite city by H. E. Cross. The Willamette Pulp i Paper company deeded Its claim on the property to Gladstone several years ago. The island was deeded to the city by Mr. Cross when the strip be tween the county road and the river was turned over to the town. Shortly after that time the paper company bought rights in the Island from the stale land board, which held that Is lands in navigable Btrenms were state property. Later the Clackamas was held not to be a navigable stream, bo that the Island became the property of the owner of the bank adjacent.
