No Groundhogs in Oregon, Sez Pike, Sez He Six Weeks of Bail Weather Would lie Certain If This Were In Old Missouri. HEY ain't no groundhogs in Oregon." remarked Pike as he gazed at old Sol yesterday afternoon and then consulted the almanac to be sure that It was February 2. "You'ns don't know miich about groundhog day, but we'ns in Missouri place a powerful lot of stress on the conditions which pervail on the second day of the sec ond mpnth of -each year. "You know! Edward Augustus Beals he's got a lot of instruments to tell about the weather, but he ain't got no groundhog. The groundhog, he's nat ural, and they ain't. no getting away from the way he predicts about the weather. "You see! It's a cinch the ground hog will show up on the second day of February. He's got to do it. They ain't no getting around it for it's nat ural. If the sun shines bright on that day he jest turns around again and crawls back Into his hole, and then look out for six weeks' bad weather. If the day is dark and lots of clouds and things look blue and there ain't nothing to cast a shadder from the hog then It's great business and a early Spring and fine crops Is the nec essary result, for the groundhog is a particular beast and he knows, enough to stay out; of course, being natural. "Maybe you ain't particular wise to what a groundhog is. A feller work- 4 ing for a Kansas City newspaper once sold me a set of books and one of 'em had a piece about the groundhog. The book said 'twas a woodchuck and thet the beast hybernated from September to February 2. Being natural. the beast must come from his hole on that day, the book saying all the time woodchuck day. "As I said before, they ain't no groundhogs in Oregon, but I can jest bet you one thing for this country; if It rains on Easter Sunday It is as sure as shooting thet it will rain each Lord's day for seven weeks. Well, so long. I ain't much of a weather prophet for. Oregon, but I do know what would happen in Missouri today had It been today In thet country." ANNEXATION CLUB FORMS Beaverton People Begin Campaign to Join Multnomah County.

I C" J sJk yv Council Is Requested to Take Action,, Providing Remedy for Iresent Unsatisfactory Conditions During Rush Honrs. Poor streetcar service during the rush hours and at transfer points and the need for Immediate remedies for these conditions form the chief feature of a communication filed with City Auditor Barbur yesterday by M. J. Morse and John B. Sawyer, president and secretary respectively of the Waverly-Richmond Improvement Association. An earnest plea for relief is made on behalf of the members of the organization. Other com plaints concern the action of the Port land Woman's Club as to the high steps, and stops bn Grand avenue and East Morrison street. The letter from the Waverly-Richmond Improvement Association is as follows: To the Honorable Council, City of Port land, Gentlemen Responding' to your re quest that written statements of complaints against streetcar service be filed with your special committee, the Waverly-Richmond Improvement Association presents the fol lowing: list and r respectfully petitions that you exercise the 'power vested In your body to correct these abuses: Women Compelled to Walt. - I n the rush hours of late afternoon and evening, residents on the Richmond car line axe often unable to set on their cars because of the intensely crowded space within the car. Women and v those not caring; to join In a crushing; Jam are fre quently compelled to wait while two and even three cars are passing before being able to get in. We respectfully submit we are entitled to have cars furnished of suf ficient capacity to accommodate existing traffic. People living on the Mount Scott, Hawthorne-avenue, Sell wood and Oregon .City carllnes axe permitted to occupy Waverly Richmond, Waverly-Woodstock and Brook lyn cars until reaching transfer points, when a sufficient number or transfer cars are pro vided to handle as much traffic as the Mount Scott, Hawthorne-avenue and Sell wood cars. Often In the rush hours of evening, from ten to 20 residents of the Waverly-Richmond district, especially wom en, are crowded out of their own cars, while this many or more people, riding only to the transfer points, take their places. The Waverly and Brooklyn lines were far over-crowded before this transfer business bega.n, and the heavy Increase In traffic forced onto them greatly Increases their discomfiture, as we have had no increase in the number of cars in the service. We respectfully petition that you compel the company to provide ample transfer cars while extraordinary conditions prevail and keep that traffic on such cars or increase the Waverly and Brooklyn service, so that the residents of these districts will not be deprived of their cars. This complaint does not reach to the matter of getting seats, but Is as to the point of getting on the cars at an, or even on tna steps oy tne most heroic crowding. Transfer Cars. Cause Delay. The transfer car service Is permitted to cause undue and unwarranted interruption in the Waverly and Brooklyn lines. Trans fer cars are kept on the main track while loading and unloading, and since the trans fer cars are run with trailers, the time for stopping our service Is doubled. Draw- de lays are frequent, and these, added to tne growing and unwarranted transfer-car de lays, render the Waverly-Richmond service Intolerable and very Injurious to our dis trict and property, besides giving us great inconvenience about getting to and from our work. We petition that the company be required to load and unload the transfer cars and the Russell-Shaver cars at Grand avenue and Hawthorne on a sidetrack, or adopt traffic regulations giving vastly more speed to the work than is observed now. We get normally a 20-minute service, but are often compelled to wait 30 and even 40 minutes for a car, and conditions grow worse rather than better. We must have relief from some source. When two Waverly-Richmond cars are thrown close together on the outward journey, because of delays that break -the regular schedule, conductors often require one car to unload into another atwl one car is turned back to the- city. In many in stanoes a car nearly full of men, women Scratch Some paid managers of the great Labor Trust do not seem satisfied to rest on their past record of tyran nies to their own members, to other working men, and to the public at large, but they seek to add to their long list of villianous acts. On Sunday, January 2d, 1910, The Chicago Federation of Labor al-1 lowed to pass to the press a statement that three carloads of empty peanut shucks were found in a railroad wreck and were consigned to our Company. That statement was a wilful, mali cious lie made from whole cloth. It was inspired by the usual hate for everyone not under the yoke of the Labor Trust.- It is a favorite method of the average "Jawsmith" the noisy ones in the unions when confronted 'with facts regarding the assaults, destruc tion of property, and other crimes (too often including murder) to con coct and put out deliberate" false hoods. This attack on the business of the Postum Cereal Co. is a good illustra tion. ' - They have tried for years to bov cott the products, ruin the business, and take away the living of our faith ful emploves, (about 1000 persons;. AVhat for? We have for years past paid the Myrtle. Elvyn appeared in Portland last year with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. The Morning Oregonian of May 1, 1909, said of her playing at that time : "Her piano playing reminds me of a mass of shining pearls, with sparkling prisms of color. Her encore was an arrange ment of the 'Blue Danube' waltz, by Schulz-Evlor-Godowsky. The fair pianist is really one of America's great artists." Myrtle Elvyn, as well as many other world-famous artists, uses the Kimball Piano ex clusively in all her concerts. Kimball Pianos, graad and upright, Organs and Pipe Organs sold in the .West exclusively by and children is ordered emptied into an other car with few passengers, giving the greatest possible Inconvenience to the larg est number. -If any such transfers are ab solutely necessary, we should be protected by a rule that the car with least load should be emptied. We petition that the company be asked to provide means whereby such transfers are not necessary, but in the event that thy cannot be avoided, that the pas sengers, rather than the car crew, be studied for accommodation. Traffic rH rector Sngxested. It often Qccurs that Waverly-Richmond passengers, kept waiting 30 or 40 minutes, see several cars on another line pass. We petition that some traffic system be en forced whereby one line, deprived of its service for an undue period, be given relief by the cars on other lines that are not oppressed by such conditions. We suggest that this could be accomplished by having a traffic director at Third and Yamhill streets, who should keep check on these points and have power to meet exigencies. In keeping with the custom of other lines, we submit that the Waverly-Richmond line is entitled to a through car service, not stopping west of some given point for a certain time In the afternoon and evening1, bringing the remote sections into closer touch with the business center. From the viewpoint of the congested traf fic in tbe rush hours, and comparing the discomfitures of this line with others, we believe that an urgent case existB here, de manding relief, and respectfully urge your honorable body to take the necessary action. C. A. Purlana filed a letter, in which he sets forth a plan whereby traffic con ditions might be facilitated. He would have the east-bound cars on Morrison street cross over the west side of Grand avenue to make transfers or to pick up passengers, instead of having all cars stop as now on the west side of the ave nue, tying up numerous cars. He also suggests that it would be well to have the cars going west en Morrison round the curve at Third before stopping, so as not to congest traffic at that point. Mrs. Cleveland Rockwell, corresponding secretary of the Portland Woman's Club, writes that the club, by unanimous vote, asks that the steps on the streetcars be lowered. It was declared at the - last meeting of the club that the high steps are menacing the health of the women of th city, and that something should be done to remedy the situation. These complaints will receive consid eration by the special Council committee, named by Mayor Simon to investigate streetcar service, when it meets next Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. New Corporations Formed. SALEM, Or., Feb. 2. (Special.) Ar ticles of incorporation have been filed In the office of the Secretary of State as follows: C. E. Stone Lumber Company, Port land; capital stock, $20,000; incorpora tors, C- E. Stone, B- W. Graham and W. J. Makelim. The First Baptist Church of Clats kanie; incorporators. H A.

These people are faithful, prosper ous, loyal and. high-grade, yet they have been hounded and vilified be cause they now and always have refused to bend the knee to these tyrannical labor bosses who could collect monthly fees and order them to quit work in order to punish the Company for being independent of "unionism." The Labor Trust has sent com mittees and money time and again, given smokers (and drinkers) to try and lure our people into the meshes of slavery, but Postum workmen steadfastly perf er their independence and liberty. Therefore, the labor leaders have threatened 'to punish them and this lying "peanut shell tale" is one of the methods. There is a time coming when the workingman, even outside of Battle Creek, will secure his rightful posi tion and fair treatment with suitable wages without being compelled to be under the iron heel of a few labor chiefs who have obtained control in some localities over the workingmen, and can tell them when to quit work, or be subject to the slugging of their 353 WASHINGTON ST. BARRET ANXIOUS TO SEE ASSEMBLY Popular Washington County Senator Finds No Objec tions to Plans. VERDICT IS UP TO VOTERS Democrats Qave Prepared Tickets to Be Submitted to People at Pri maries, Then Why Xot Re publicans, He Argues. "I fall to see why there should be any objection to an assembly of Trie publicans both in the state and In the various counties for suggesting- candi dates for office," said W. N. Barret, State Senator, of HUlsboro, at the Im perial Hotel, yesterday. "Ever since the direct primary law was enacted the Democrats have been holding as semblies, although they have styled them mass meetings, for the purpose of preparing a ticket to be submitted to the voters at $he primary election. Surely Republicans or any other body of voters are entitled to the same privilege. The action of the proposed assembly will not be final, anyway. "The men who receive the indorse ment of that body must go before the voters for the nomination. There Is nothing to prevent other aspirants for the same nomination from submitting their names at the same time. HUlsboro Is Favorable. "Those Republicans with whom I have talked In HUlsboro favor the as sembly plan. I do not know what Uie feeling is among the voters In the coun try districts as I have not had a chance to discuss the assembly with them. Washington County Republicans re of the unanimous opinion that the mem bership of the assemblies, both state and county, must pome right from the people through precinct primaries. They want the delegates to county as cemblies elected in an open primary election in each precinct. They are willing to have the delegates to the state assembly chosen by the county assemblies." Barret Receives Big Vote. Mr. Barret is one of the 15 holdover members of the State Senate. He was elected State Senator as a Statement No. 1 man at the election last June from the district consisting of Wash ington, Tillamook, Lincoln and Yam hill counties. In the election he re ceived the biggest vote ever given a candidate for the Legislature from that district. Prior to his election ,o the Senate, Mr. Barret represented Wash ington County as a Representative in the 1907 session of the. Legislature. Washington County is one of the five counties in the state from which The Oregonian did not obtain interviews with leading Republicans on the as sembly question. The last of a series of these interviews was published .last Sunday. , ASSEMBLY - FAVOR SPREADS Senator Bowerman Would Have Each Precinct Elect Delegate. DALLAS, Or., Feb. 2. (Special.) Jay Bowerman, of Condon, President of the State Senate, who was in Dallas today on legal business, upon being asked what his idea was concerning the ad visability of the assembly plan of the Republican party, expressed himself as being heartily in favor of It. In part, he said: "I favor the assembly, and believe it to be the only right thing. In my opin ion, though, the representation from the different voting precincts to the county conventions should be more liberal than under the old convention system; and I believe that the selection of the dele gates to the state convention should be taken out of the hands of the county convention and placed in the hands of the different precincts. "The different voting precincts could elect a representative to the state con vention at the same time the delegates to the county' convention were elected. This would make the state assembly more representative, as it would give every voting precinct in the state a voice in all questions coming before the state assembly. It is true that it would be hard to handle so large a number of delegates, but still I believe this to be the best course to pursue in the first assembly." The greatest danger from Influenza Is of Its resulting in pneumonia. This can be obviated by using Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, as it not only cures in fluenza, but counteracts any tendency of the dipene towards pneumonia. SnM v all dealer. "'HBWISBI infamous "entertainment commit tees." Labor is too sacred st part of the great world's work to be dominated by the vicious, hate-producing, im pudent, and criminal men too often , found in the ranks of these so-called officers and managers. The works of the great food fac tories in this country are open to visitors at all hours of the working dayand are visited by hundreds of thousands of people who inspect every kind of material used and all of the processes. The cleanliness of the Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., plant is proverbial the world over. We have deposited in the Com mercial National Bank of Chicago, $5000.00 to be Covered by a like amount by the Chicago Federation of Labor. If the Federation of Labor can show that there were ever any peanut shells or" trash of any kind shipped to and used by the Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., in their foods at any time in the history of the business, the Chicago Federation of Labor will take the $10,000.00, otherwise it will come to us.
