BURG REVIEW QUEENS ARE CRQWNEO Thousands of People Witness jj Interesting Ceremonies GRAND PARADE IS A FEATURE Local fraternal Orgcszations Parade the Busi ness Streets of the City Band Con certs and Vaudeville Pleases Favored with weather as fair as j ever gruruu an eveui 01 gaieiy, nose burg's Sixth Annual Strawberry Car nival opened this morning under tho most favorable conditions. The morning hours were, t;iven over to hand concerts and vaudeville stunts, while this afternoon occurred the crowning of the queens and the grand fraternal parade. . The parade was one of the best ever seen in Hose- burg and was witnessed by a great throng of people that lined either 1 side of the business streets. j It was a typical Uosesburg cele bration payment of homage to two of her greatest products, roses and I strawberries, and nature provided for! the occasion u day that could not have been grander, because it was perieet. The hundreds of visitors from neighboring cities and towns were cordially welcomed on every hand, Hiid the reception cointuittot's have seen that all of these have been made to feel at home. Tho business portion of the city is in holiday attire, with festoons of bunting suspended from telcr,rapti poles, and featured by tho "Hrd, White and Mine." Many of the lead ing business houses have decorated their street windows in a very at- tractive manner and the word "wel- come" greets the visitors wherever I they go. Everything points to the three! biggest days lu Koselmrg's history. I The cloudless skies and the heautilul sunlight truly exemplifies a day of typical Uosehuig weather weather ! that contributes In no small measure to tne prouueuon 111 uougius couiny of the first strawberries in the state each year and a profusion of roses ; that cannot be excelled anywhere. 1 While many otlivr sections of the' state are still expectant as to Us ; strawberry crops and roses, Itoseburg today Is making liberal displays of: both.

The 1 spirit of carnival is to be seen every-j where and nothing except a down-' pour of rain can hamper the festlvl-' ties. It is not enough to briefly slate that there were band concerts dur-. lug the morning hours, for the two musical organizations, tho O. A.

(INOOKI'OltATKI)) "Flip Pocket" Ordinance Branded as Unconstitutional ALBANY CASE HEARD BY JUDGE In Rendering Decision Judge Kelly Holds That liquor May Be Sold and Purchased Under Certain Conditions ALBANY, May 21. Circuit Judge Kelly yesterdny decided that the "hip pocket" ordinance, which makes it unlawful for anyone to carry Intoxi cating liquors through the streets, other than In consignment pnekages, unconstitutional and void, when he sustained a demurrer to the com plulnt In the case of the city of Al bany against Walter Marks. The demurrer was Interposed by Attor ney W. S. Hlsley, who represented the defendant. Marks was arrested about three weeks ago and three bottles of beer were found on him. A charge of vio lating the provisions of the ordin ance was preferred in the police court. Me was tried and convicted before Judge Vau Tassel. A demur rer to the verdict was filed but over ruled. Then the case was appealed to the Circuit Court. "This ordinance provides," Bald Judge Kelly In announcing Ills deci sion, "that any person or persons who shall convey or haul through uny street, ulley, avenue or other public place within the city of Al bany shall bo deemed guilty of a mis demeanor. There are no exceptions provided for lu the ordinance. "The local option law of the state of Oregon accords the privilege of the salo of intoxicating liquor under certuiu conditions, such as in cases of actual sickness, upon a physician's prescription, from one registered pharmacist to another registered pharmacist and of pure alcohol for scientific purposes and of wine to church officials for sacramental pur poses. "The constitution of Oregon pre scribes, after giving municipalities i the right to regulate and prohibit sales of liquor, that such munlcipalt- jtles shall within their limits be sub- Iject to the provisions of the local option law. This ordinance does not make an exceptions for the transpor tation of liquor In the cases permit ted by the local option law nor does It even provide that the carrying of I he liquor must he with unlawful In tent. I "The state of facts was agreed upon In this case hut there was no mention of the reason for which the defendant wns carrying the liquor he admits was in his possession. It was urged that tho defendant could come In and show that the purpose for which he was carrying the liquor was for one of tho exceptions allowed by tho local option law, but this would bo putting ihe burden of proof upon the deleniliint and that Is not ex pected of a defendant In a criminal cilHe." In announcing the decision Judge Kelly cited Ihe case of Kx Parte Ka mela In .'Hi Oregon 2", 1, and of In Ke Wong I lane, 1 US California, 680. It Is understood that the so-called "suitcase" ordinance, now pending before the itoseburg city council, was copied from the Albany measure. Although Itoseburg was visited by a somewhat uniisuiil winstorm lute this alleriioon, the monetary damage was slight. Tho 100 foot flag pole In the court yard was blown down with a crash, and only missed strik ing a little girl by a few inches. Trees were stripped of their foliage and other minor damage resulted. The carnival decorations withstood the storm, with a few exceptions in the business district, where they were loosened from their fastenings. The wind followed n sweltering heat of I wo days, and whb followed by a tor rlental rain. V. 11. Moore, tho local S. 1.
