THE BOHDIUG PROPOSITION FAILED TO PASS nLV 392 TOTES CAST IN THE EN TIKE riTF AND 130 OF THESE AGAINST THOSE WHO COULD NOT FIND TIME TO VOTE CAN FIND TIME TO WADE OR GO AKOl'ND. DAILY CAPITAI JOURNAL, SAL. . OKEGOX, MOVDAr, APRIL 17. 1911. r FA03 THBZB Because of the lack of Just 20 rotes, the vote standing 242 for and 150 against the proposition of bond' ing the city for the sum of $50,000 for the repair of damaged bridges and the construction of those washed away in the spring flood was de feated Saturday and if any bridges are built at all now it will be up to the council to take advantage of the emergency clause In the charter. It required a two-third vote on the question of the issuance of bonds and that the vote Saturday fell Just 20 short of that Under the emergency clause of the city charter, the council is empow ered to spend $20,000 for bridges. The council has already authorized $10,000 for the purpose and that would give the city $30,000 to build bridges with. The paving work in progress In the city makes it imper ative that certain bridges be built and the bridge on Capitol street Is necessary as the people living be yond the creek are now without fire protection. The council because of those conditions will probably avail itself of this clause and use that amount of money for bridge con struction but It will not cover the needs of the city. CROWDS ATTEND OREGON SHOE COMPANY'S SALE The Saturday before Easter Sun day certainly proved a record day for crowds on the streets of Salem. There was without question a center of attraction from early morning to closing time at the Oregon Shoe company's store on Commercial street. This company has placed their en tire $2.)f000 stock in the hands of Lewis Bros, of Spokane and Chicago. it is understood that the selling agents will dispose of this immense stock within 13 days, such has been the reduction from the regular prices. Mr. J. L. Galpert of Lewis Bros., is conducting the sale and the methods in which he has presented the sale to the public is very credi table to his management. Mr. Dan Brunner, the able and popular manager of the Oregon Shoe company, has shown his enterprise in selecting so efficient an organiza tion to dispose of such a valuable stock. There must have been many hun dreds that attended the sale. Twenty-five clerks were in attendance and mere was not one "let-up" during the whole day. There will be a con tinuance of the crowds during the present week, without any question. G. W, JOHNSON REMODELING HIS BIG STORE une or the handsomest clothing stores In the-town, both for exterior and Interior appointment, will with out doubt be Q. W. Johnson's, at 141 North Commercial street when the alterations now in progress are com pleted. The -front will be bo recon structed that there will be a central display window, with two side win dows, so that a comDlete rleht-nf- way will encircle the central win dow. This remodelling will give a mod ern appearance to the store that Is now strikingly apparent In the great metropolitan cities. The goods will also be shown to greater advantage than hitherto and better oortrav the leading fashions this old established clothing store Is noted for. The pan elling of the- windows has been pro duced In fir, the grain of this wood specially selected for G. W. John son's store being the prettiest yet seen in Salem. It was brought bv the contractors from Portland. Clyde and Paul Johnson are to be- congrat ulated unon their enternrlnn nnrt foresight in keeping up with the progression the city Is demanding of its home merchants. YODER HELD TO GRAND JURY GIVES BOND After listening for a whole day to we evidence adduced at the prelim inary examination of A. H.. Yodter, uperlntendent of the Woodburn schools, and who was charged with assault an(i battery, Judge Webster Saturday evening bound him over to e grand jury. W. J. Jerman, may or of Woodburn, and fiugene Mosh. berg, of the same place, signed his bonds- and he was given his liberty until the grand jury convenesj when "e charge against him will be- fully Investigated. Tho offense is alleged to consist n Yoder calling Ledia Shimback, a M-year-old girl into his office, and taking liberties with her person. At w examination he was represented Attorney D'Arcy, who contended N there was a conspiracy on the Part of certain teachers to oust Yod r from his position. Evidence was 'atroduced along that line, and also to the good character of Yoder.

For the second time the people of Tacoma tomorrow will vote on the question whether Mayor Fawcett shall retain office or whether W. W. Seymour, his opponent, shall be selected to suc ceed him as the city's executive. The first recall election two weeks ago failed to give either of the three candidates a majority. Arthur Barth, who ran on the So- didate will hare a majority of E8F( than a few hundred In tomorrow's' election. Campaign leaders of both sides are extremely modest in their claims of victory. FawcettV managers advance the claim that a majority of those who voted for Barth In the first election will now cast their ballots for him. As Barth received more than 3,000 vot.es, this support probably would Insure Fawcett 8 election. On the other hand Seymour claims to have assurance that these Socialist voters will refrain from taking part in the present election and that he will lead by substantially the same fig ures as before, insuring his selection. The registration Is the heaviest In the history of the city. o . Do Ghosts Haunt Swamps tt No. never.
