A major portion of the town of Lapine, Or., moved down on Port land yesterday, the occasion being the trial in the United States court of E. L. Clark, merchant, and Burton- Oney, forest ranger, accused of conspiracy to defraud the govern ment. Two-thirds of Lapine's 75 population were in Portland, either as witnesses or spectators at the trial. Clark is the leading citizen of the little eastern Oregon hamlet and the owner of the Lapine Sup ply company. Oney was a forest ranger stationed near the settle ment.. According to the indictment' against them, the two conspired to defraud the government by charg ing to the forest service various articles of food which were never delivered. The sale of a $33 pair of binoculars, which Oney attempted to charge to the government as mush and potatoes, was the basis for one of the counts against the men. Clark is to stand trial first, his hearing opening yesterday. A jury consisting of the following men was selected: John S. Richie, W. T. An derson, Charles B. Ross, C. B. Ar thur, William Andrews, W.

TODAY, TONIGHT, AI.l, THIS WEEK. - : MOTION PICTURES . THAT YOU'LL REMEMBER ALL YOUR LIFE HUMAN- THRILLING ' REAL STORY FROM LIFE. (Nothing Poned.) MOTHER-FATHER LOVE NANOOK CF THE NORTH r INTRODUCTIONS may seem su perfluous, inasmuch aa within the confines of continental North America the excellent Gumps and their acquaintances are known from brownstone mansion to sec tion house. Yet there must be con sidered the stranger from far lands the gentleman from Indo-China. the tourist 'from Tibet and the man from Mars. The Oregonian prefers to take no unnecessary risks. . It feels that A. ,Gump and his fam'ly' should be presented to the last be nighted individual who is saddening for a laugh. The Gumps, as. all should know, came to The Oregonian quite recent ly, and are Tiow an exclusive local feature of this paper. They are brim ming with typical Gumpian affairs, and have assured the editors that the line of Andrew Gump never felt in finer fettle or showed greater prom ise. In testimony to this rather broad but. entirely reasonable state ment is the fact that Sidney Smith, creator of the Gumps, recently con tracted with the Chicago Tribune, through whose service the series is awarded us, for a minimum compen sation during the next 10 years of approximately jl. 000,000. Therefore the Gumps are as ' af fluent as they are beloved the Gumps who are the sworn foes of gloom and who have carved for themselves the highest niche in America's hall of comic fame. And well they deserve both encomiums and emoluments, for they are hap pily so like so many of us that we smile to see the unerring insight of the cajicaturje. As for the six stars of the Gump comics, ferm in line at the left. Here they come. Minerva Gump,, the tall, tip-tilted of nose, is none other than Min, the competent helpmate of Andy a fond and dot ing mother, the wisest of wives, whose def ness about the nous. whose skill at cookery, inclined the wealthy Uncle Bim to d,ream dis astrously of marital bliss on hts own count. Whatever fit Gumps would do without the min istrations of Min nobody knows. Let trouble or happiness either one alight on the ridgepole and ther rises the very human call of Andy himself. O Min! Andy Gump, the infallible repos tory of all knowledge, whose faith in the star of the Gumps never has waned, and who some how has managed to keep, the wolf frjr.i the door, a good cigar in his pocket, and Uncle Eim on profit able terms with the family. It was A. Gump and none other whose craft foiled the noxious Widow Zander, when she had vamped the1 belated but, tender affections of Uncle Bim and almost hooded him for his fabu lous fortune. A. Gump frequent v brings home' the bacon, and is ii; every sense a self-made man.. Ho calls it a good job, too. Little Chester, we are well aware, is the inhabitant of three anxious heart s Andy's. Min's and Uncle Bim's. This juve nile Gump is the hope of the house of Gump and the pride of the fam ily. If Uncle Bim resists or escap .s matrimony the vast Australian estates will be his. the splendid pal ace of the island continent, the di versity of important affairs, and the heaped treasure chests. Little Chester is the uncrowned king of frV,a Htimn monaco l-T a haa hut' (n forgiven. Altogether there is more jam in his life than there are jolts. . L'ncie Bim, the Australian wizard of finance, has fought his way to the top in distant Aus tralia. There he 'dwells in regal but lonely grandeur, his sole solace an occasional visit to America and his nephew Andy. He show ers gold as a huckle berry bush rains fruit gold that would glor-. ify the'Gumpian line for all time. It was Uncle Bim, the sus ceptible, who lost his foolish heart to the scheming Widow Zander and was all but trapped. -Picture the distress of the Gumps'. Yet, though he sailed away a broken and deso late man. his fortune fortunately Is intact. Widow Zander is the charming reincarnation of all the lovely wiles of all the vampires of all the ages. bhe. indisputably, has the goods. Between her and the house of Gump there is an en during feud. Not only because she gushes. and patronizes " that enraged .family, and holds her dimpled chin a bit too high, but because and this is high treason itself she seeks the "strong hand and tremendous fortune of Uncle Bim. Yet wily as the widow is, virtue circumvented her when she made her last essay. And now she mourns him that was once her Bimbo, who has voyaged back to Australia with his magic bank book. ' . Carlos we've- always been sorry for Carlos. He yearns' for the fickle widow, whose heart might have been his but for the allure of Uncle Bim's mil lions. Gold blinded the woman and she threw him down hard. Yet Carlos never lost his smile, h 1 s pudgy noncha lance, nor his ambi tion to wed the widow. Even now he looks like a good bet, this passe cavalier who, after all,- is as faithful and omni present A3 a pet poodle. We've al ways been a trifle sorry f orCarlos but heaven itself 'must pity the poor wight if he attains hts dream. And there you are. There are other characters. There's Old Timer, for instance. New ones mav haunt fthe smiling fancy 'of Sidney Smith. Yet these suffice to portray for us the unconscious humor of life, and- by gosh, this goes to broaden us as we smiie. For the (jumps, before " all else, are very human. They are with us every day now and soon will join the Sunday colored comic section. PICNIC TO AID VETERANS Funds to Be Raised for Enter tainment of Visitors. A big picnic, to be held at Crystal Lake park Saturday, July 29, is planned by the local world war veterans-to raise funds to entertain the large delegations who will pass through Portland en route to the national convention at Seattle August 15-19.
