Without a llcenxo Dr. Van Urnklo could not net aa health of ficer. Klther Wodiiemlny or Thurmlny Dr. Htrlcklimd filed a rouiplnliit with tho bourd alleging Hint Dr. Vnn Drnklo ex- auilned an nppllcnnt for a medical cer tificate, a thing which Dr. Strickland charged nn osteopath hnd no right to do under hla llcenro, Kldny tho mivt- ter waa tirouiitil tietoro tho tnt board and wttb five nieniberti prvaeut thn vutn alood four to one to drop tho chargea. Dr. Harry McKay, president of thn bonrd. rnsL the one vote against the mm Inn to drop tho chargea and It la aid Hint ho threatened to forco the bonrd to consider tho chargea If he can find any possible way. Tho action of thn hoard la probably tho rcuult of a ile sir.' on tho part of thn member to keep free from tho tanglo In which tho Htale bonrd of health lias found Itself and alan probably a result of tho cux torn of tho hoard not to consider charges ngnlnst a physician until the chargea nro backed by a decision of a court. Dr. Van llrukln made tho examina tion tho first of the week. Within tho last few months, the osteopnthlc physl elan has made a number of examina tions for marriage licenses and certlll- cates signed by an osteopath am ac cepted by all county clerks. This ts thn flrnt time thai tho right of an osto. opnth to Issuo a medical certificate has been quest lolled. VAN BRAKLE QUOTES OFFICIAL IN DEFENSE OSTEOPATH USES OPINION OF CRAWFORD TO ANSWER HIS ACCUSORS An opinion of Attorney (lenoral r-r.uv. ford Ih tho answer of County Health Officer van llrnklo, to charges which were made ngnlnst him before tho Gtule board of uu'dlrnl examiners by Dr. M. C. Shickland Krldiy. )r. Van Urnklo said Saturday: ' T would state that after rending tho net carefully, and In connection with the net licensing oBtcopnlhs, I am of tho opinion that a regularly licensed osteopath would be authorized to Is sue such certificate the same as physi cian authorized to practice medicine.' "This Is tho authority under which I liavo Blgned these certificates. It is tho authority of tho samo man whom Dr. McKay, tho state board of health, and tho local medical men have been so profuse in the use of. If it Is neces sary to define perjury as acting In good faith with tho evpressed opinion of nn attorney general, then my repu tation will at least bo damaged In good company." "Apparently Dr. Strickland, having utterly failed la his efforts to nssail my official position as health officer, has now descended to the personal is suo M attacking my professional stand Inf. His position is Increda'.ilo and the action of the hoard of examiners In re fuiilnp to consider l;tt charges is cer tainly excellent evident.) of tue futility of hs claims. "Dr McKny'8 attltmlo In standing out ngnlnst the entire board In wish ing to have theso charges heard by that body, is, to my mind, simply evinc ing the now time-worn medlcnl edit, that I must he done away with, no mat ter what tho cost nor how It dono. Ho quotes Attorney General Crawford's opinion In support of tho argument that In Blgnlng a medical marriage cer tificate, I have committed perjury, yet strangely enough, I can quote that same gentleman tinder date of May 27, 191.1, which Is shortly after the pass age of the law In question, at which time he declares himself ob follows: I Mm FAILS iTTOON RECALL 18 CHARGES ARE BROUGHT AGAINST LAST MEMBER OF OLD COUNTY COURT J.

Mncdonnld, secretary, tho following af fidavit! has been Issued, and signed by J. A. Kilmer: "I, J. Adam Kilmer, being duely sworn, say that tho Clackamas county court hud advertised for lumber to ro pair tho suspeUNion bridge at Oregon City, Oregon, and that bids were to be submitted on or before tho Hth day of May, 1914; then on Wednesday, the Hth day of May, William Muttoon, county commissioner, talked with me In front of Hie courthouse and stated this his sons, John and Koy, were In tho lumber business and would bo bid ders for tho contract; that It would be foolish to bid tho price down on this rout rait; that the county could afford to pay well for Its lumber, and that tho thing for us boys to do was to get to gether, put the price up on the bids and divide the contract, rcgurdlcss of who It was awarded to. The next day, May 14, 1914, 1 submitted my hid which was the lowest bid when William Mat toon, commissioner, came to me and asked mo to withdraw my bid, that Ills soiib would then be the lowest bidders and that they would then divide the contract with me." This nddldnvid was subscribed and sworn to before H. W. llagermann, notary public. August 29, 1914. J. A. Kilmer Is a lumber dealer. William Muttoon is n Republican and Is serving his second term in tho county court. Although a Republican It is definitely known that the county organization of that party will neither fight nor support the movement even though a Democrat runs for the office nt a recall election. Mr. Mattoou has lived In the Kstucada and Viola dis trict for many years and 1b known as "I'nclo Hilly" Muttoon from one side of tho county to the other.

INMOLALLA BY OCTOBER 15 LARGEST CUT COMPLETED BY END OF WEEK, IF WEATHER IS FAVORABLE CELEBRATION AT TOWN IS PLANNED Second Railroad Day In Year Will Ad vertlse "Infant City" Through out State Line to be Well Ballasted Tho Wlllainetto Valley Southern will have rails laid Into Molulla by October l.'i, providing there are no heavy rains during tho next three weeks. This was the statement Tuesday night of Judgn (irant 11. Dlmlck, president and manager of tho road. The largest cut on th entire route which la near Mullno, will be finished tho latter part of the week. Tho cut contnlns 33,000 ruble yards of earth and in Its center Is over 60 foot doep. A steam shovel has been working on the cut since June 4 and during the Inst few weeks three crews of men have been at work. All Ready for Ralls. With the exception of the cut the grado Is practically completed from , this city to Molalla. A few small ! stretches between Mullno and Molalla jrcmnln to be brought to grado but theso will not delay the laying of track. Hails for the line on to Molalla are al ready on the ground and Judge Dlmlck Is of tho opinion that when track lay ing begins, almost three-quarters of a mile of rails can be laid each day. The rack la now laid II mllea out ft Orenon City and for tho anater part of that distance, the tract has been .ballasted with hard river gravel from the Willamette here. Por several miles along the line, gravel has been I applied three times so that the road i bed is firm and well built. Celebration Is Planned. Molalla business men have been waiting for an announcement of the completion of the road Into their town so as to arrange for a second "Ilnll- road day," such as was celebrated a year ago when the Portland, Eugene & EnBtern completed Its line. The Wlllnmette Valley Southern Is the sec ond road to build Into the Molalla country In the last year. From Molalla on to Mt. Angel, the work will be much easier than be tween this city and Molalla. There are no deep cuts or large rivers to cross and at the present time the right-of-way Is almost ready for the track lay ers. Only a few small pieces of right-of-way remains to bo secured on this part of tho route. Track laying past Molalla will be hurried, hut not so fast that the road bed cannot bo ballasted as the rails go down. This decision has been made so as to protect the rails when heavy loads of mnterlnl are hauled over the track. The foundations for the Beaver Creek substntion are now completed nnd for several miles between Oregon City and Mullno the poles are up for the power wires. At first power from the local plnnt of the Portlnnd Railway, Light & Power company will be used but as soon as the line from tho River Mill generating station to Beaver Creek is completed the system will be changed. A second Bubstntlon plant will be built at Mnrquam.

The meeting showed the Interest which is taken In the fall campaign The Grange hall was filled to Its capacity nnd the audience greeted each speaker with applause. Mr. Schuebel made one of the principal talks of the evening and G. W. Smith, precinct committeeman, acted as chairman. Each of the candidates spoke. Probably the most noticeable fea ture of the meeting was the number of women who w-ete present. This was taken by the local candidates at the meeting as showing the prominent part women voters will play at the coming fall election. Mr. Schuebel in his talk told of the things accomplished by the Republi cans in the last few years in the state legislature and the effect that party had In the development of the county. The meeting was closed early and the candidates were back in Oregon City by 10:30 o'clock. COURT HUNTS FOR HUSBAND The two children of Mrs. D. A.

The action follows a deadlock be tween a faction of property owners and the council. The council atands for a permanent Improvement at the ex pense of the property owners while the property owners maintain that tho street can be repaired with funds from the city treasury. Council Takes Stand. Even though the remonstrance con tained the recommendation that the street be patched up with money from j the general funds, the council stood tor a new street ana ai a special council meeting held last Monday passed a res olution calling for the danger signs with the understanding that in case a petition asking for an Improvement be presented to the council by Wed nesday night, the signs would not be put up. The property owners, ,rad by T. L. Chanuan, Ignored the decision of the council, and as a result notices, 15 In number, were posted. City Attorney Schuebel Is of the opinion that the danger signs will les sen tho liability of the city in case of a damage suit and in certain cases re move the liability of the city alto get hoc "It is hard to tell Just what effect the danger signs would have In case of a suit against the city for Injuries due to the condition of the street," said Mr. Schuebel. "In no two cases would the effect be the same. In case the signs were Ignored and Injury resulted, I be lieve that the city could hardly he held responsible, but If a person were in jured when going over the street with care, I am not sure just what the effect would be." Property Owners Go to Work. The Masonic lodge and William And- resen, two of the leading property own ers have employed men to fill up the largest holes in the street In front of their property with crushed rock and cement. T am not going to take any chances with the street In front of my prop erty," said Mr. Andresen. "Mr. Schue bel is of the opinion that the city may not be liable and if the city isn't, we property owners must be responsible. I am not going to take any chances." VOTERS TURN OUT FO BIG MOLALLA RALLV The second rally In the fall Republi can campaign was held In Molalla Wed nesday night, and as at the Mullno meeting, was well attended. The Interest shown by the women voters in politics was ogaln demon strated at the Molalla meeting for they formed a considerable part of the audi ence. Those on the ticket who at tended are: Miss Iva Harrington, candidate for county clerk; W. J. Wil son, candidate for sheriff; John Ham mond, of the couniy central commit tee; E. P. Dedmnn, cnndldnte for re flection to county recorder; Franz Kraxberger, candidate for the legisla ture; C. Schuebel, candldato for the J legislature, ana M. t,. Dunn, candidate for county treasurer. HELD TO GRAND JURY J. Wilbur, William Wilbur, Joe Har rle nnd Frank Moore, proprietors of the Friars' club, waived examination before Justice of the Peace Sievers and were bound over to the grand Jury on a charge of selling liquor on Sun day. They were arrested In the raid of the Friars club made early Sunday morning by Sheriff Mass and a force of deputies. District Attorney Hedges summoned several of those taken in the raid to appear as witnesses and had a com plete case worked up against the four. VV. Wilbur ahd J. Wilbur were convict ed earlier In the year on a charge of selling liquor to a minor.
