LIVE WIRES DECIDE TO ORGANIZE ACTIVE CAMPAIGN TO TEACH BUYERS TO PATRONIZE OREGON CITY STORES pany and the Willamette Valley South ern was announced Tuesday after noon by Judge Grant H. Dimlck, presi dent of the latter company. The sta tion of the Wlllumctte Valley South ern Is on Fifteenth and Main atreetB, or between a quarter and a half mile from the business center of town. Judge Dimlck said that arrange ments between the Portland Hallway Light ft Power company and his com pany had not been completed, but it was probablo that uon payment of 5 cents a northbound passenger on the power company's line between the Wil lamette Valley Southern station and Canemuh could secure n transfer to the Dimlck road. Likewise, a passen ger on the Willamette Valley South ern would be given a transfer to the Portland Railway Light & Power com pany which would carry him to any point on Main street south of Fifteenth as fur as Canemuh. Transfers secured on the Portland Railway Light & Power company's line will be accepted as 5 cents at the Wil lamette Valley Southern ticket win dow. The schedule of cars on the Port lund Hallway Light & Power com pany's lines makes good connection with the Willamette Valley Southern. Transfers will probably be given soon after the completion of the agreement between the two transportation eom- ponles. Judge Dimlck declared that the pro posal that cars on his line run up to Oregon City's business section over the rails of thu rortlnnd Railway Light & Power company was Imprac tical, as his cars would be forced to back up the street. Judge Dltrlck said that his company hnd taken the matter up with the Port land Railway Light & Power company Inst March.

Oct. 27. America's long-considered protest against British Inlerference with commerce between the I'nlted States and Europe has been dispatched to London by special mes senger and will be presented by Am bassador Page at the Brltsh foreign office next week. It became known today that the note, which Is about 10,000 words long and covers exhaustively the argument of the American government on all phases of Interference with neutral trade, was approved by the president last Saturday and started on its way to London Sunday. Alexander W. Kirk, third secretary of the American em bassy at Berlin, who had returned to Washington, carrying documents from Ambassador Gerard, was intrusted with the mission on his return jour ney to Berlin. Until today the fact that the com munication had been sent was kept secret. Instructions having been given to officials that no announcement of any kind was to be made about IL That It contains a repetition of argu ments made In the note of March 30, which recorded the Wachington gov ernment's first protest against the or der In council, or so-called blockade, is admitted, but no Intimation was given by officials today as to what measures are proposed In (he event that there Is no modification of British practices. Not only does the latest communica tion cover the various notes and mem oranda sent by the British government since March 30, but It also acknowl edges and discusses the lengthy notes that came from Gret Britain in Janu ary In response to the first protests by the United States against Interfer ence with neutral trade. i It was the note now on its way which Ex-Secretary Bryan advocated sending at the same time that the second Ltisl tanta note was dispatched to Berlin last June. President Wilson declined to send it at that time because of the fear that the United States might be placed In a position of bargaining for Its rights with Germany on the basis of Its attitude toward Great Britain. BOY TAKES 40-FOOT VON WAOENHEIM DEAD AMSTERDAM, Oct 25. Count von Wagenhetm, German ambassador to Turkey, who is credited with having formed the alliance between Germany and Turkey, Is dead, according to dis patches received here today from Con stantinople. Prince Hohenlohe is men tioned as a probable successor. OF PLUNGE INTO CREEK BOTTOM WITH ROCKS AND LOGS NOT FATAL TO J. HELLGERG. A. 40-foot plunge with a team of horses and a buggy from the approach to the Tualatin bridge to the rocks below is not enough to kill John Hell berg, of Peters' Mountain, the 21-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. William Hell berg, according to Dr. Hugh S. Mount, who is attending the case. Heliberg was driving down the road which leads to the approach to the Tualatin bridge when his team ran away. They daahed down the steep incline and went out on the approach, through the fence and to the ground. The approach is about 20 feet above the ground but the forced wild ride down the hill carried the boy, team and rig many feet out from the approach. Heliberg was taken to the home of Gus Schnoer nearby and Dr. Mount called. His back was injured, but there were no bones broken and the boy will be as well as before the acci dent In a few days. (My Mrs. Dora B. Badger.) MOLALLA. Ore, Oct 23 (Special.) Tbe Portland Chamber of Commerce special consisting of three cars reach ed Motalla property at 11:15 a. m., and waa met by the Moialla Chamber of Commerce as well as Interested citizens. The line of march was direct up Main street to the fourteen thousand dollar building, which la housing both the high school and grammar grades at present When this building had been Inspected there was a grouping for pictures. The "Yell Boys" were, called forth to give a rousing cheer for Moialla, to which waa replied by Editor Taylor, of the Moialla Pioneer, In behalf of the town. The line of march was direct to the band auditorium. By this time all had to make haste to reach the depot on schedule. The rain, which had seemingly been withheld on account of company, fell In torrents after tbe guests were. ell under way to Mt Angel. In the brief time allowed. .there waa barely time to see the town proper. The surrounding, fertile valley, which Is constantly shipping lumber, min ing poles, ties, cord wood, hogs, cat tle and other farm products by the carload, could not be visited upon this trip but is well worth a more extended visit Bagby Springs Nearby. The fact thatthls In the nearest rail road point to the H.wliy hot springs, 40 miles distant In the government re serve, could hardly be sufficiently Im pressed upon the minds of the guests. The curative value of these springs has been hearalded far and wide but when they are advertised as Is their due, it will mean much to the railroad and Moialla. While seven miles on the south, the Wtlhoit Springs and surrounding country are calling the health seeker and the sportsman by way of Moialla. One of the dreams of Moialla Is that a great pottery works will be estab lished here as we hare the finest clay for such work, as well as for unusual ly fine brick, but a short distance away. This land has been tied by the famous land grant cases. Each summer hears lamenting that there is no canning factory here yet to save waste and to give our am bitious young pebple a cnance to old themselves during vacation as well as to aid Industry In general. Opportunity la Offered. Material, cheap sites, developed pow er and the best of shipping facilities await the pleasures of the manufac turer. As for the laborer there Is ev ery advantage of home building, both grammar and high school, two church esMethodist and Christian to at tract the most desirable class. Unlimited power awaits develop ment In the Moialla river, which Is well worth a trip even to the north and south forks to witness. Our teazel field and ginsing farm are all the more worth the seeing for their oddity. It is interesting to many that por tions of old hmesteuds come within the town limits while country por tions, half a mile distant still Invite picnicking in natures groves. Thousands of dollars of work has been done upon the roads leading Into Moialla the past summer. All money available was carefully expended for necessary material while merchant, farmer aud laborer alike took pride in donating work that there need be no road debt We are no less proud of our year's building, stores, warehouses, shops and many modern bungalows. When times began to tighten financially we went back to the ways of our fore fathers, i. e., began trading. Work, lumber, land, doors, windows, cord wood, store goods and farm products being the medium of exchange that they might be built. TWO SUITS FILED HT Smith-Wagner company filed Mon day morning against Grant Hawley and Cora E.
