In the early hours of today.
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. One such moment waB
when a great War balloon, "Blimpf
as It is called on the Western front
broke away and sailed west to the
Pacific.
