Portland's city campaign yestor day wns feverish in its intensity, with flying squadrons returning with double , subscriptions from many sources. The campaign yes toiduy devolved to a point wher slackers were made mighty uncom Portable., Special committees made It very plain that the direction of duty lay in' one way only to all those whom the committee felt had not done their part, Portland is going to clean up In a hurry, and Is not going to do !t In" any faltering manner. It Is spending every effort to put tho burden where It belongs, and tho quota will be put there by those who should put It the,re. The cam pnlgn w8 not ' without its exciting moments.
