The opportunity for doing irnttl things this vcar is abundant. nfl llirri 1 everv reason to hone that nothing will be left undone that should be done. The census enumerators arc about ready to quiz the people in nn nrlr.ivnr to learn their ncdlercc. Some of the questions are of no value to the government or to any one else, but it is best to answer all as nearly correct as possible. A tino fine mnv be im nosed unon any one refusing to answer the questions as propounded. An editorial last week in which we Mated that otic of our adver Users had cut his ad out because the paper did uot take up the dry end of the recent issue seems now tn tw without nroncr foundation We have had n heart to heart talk with the party in question and he assures us that he bad no objection whatever to the course taken by the paper, but simply ordered his ad. out because the business at the present time did not justify its con tinuance, and that he expected to resume advertising in a short time. Wc had been told by pretty good parties that it was on account of the position the paper took that he ordered the nd out, so wc believed a few remarks 011 the matter would not come amiss. However, wc arc perfectly willing to take the gentle man's word for it, since he says it is untrue. FOR SALE.

Now. U1V friend, R. W. Johns, asserts that what I say is false and untrue, without giving a reason for it.

The mothers' meeting of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union which was held at the home I of Mrs, S. J. Donaldson, Monday ! afternoon, April 11, was wen at tended and a most interesting pro gram was rendered. Mrs. Carey cntur n tunt lirfirt stlrrlllir SOU IT entitled "Backward, Turn Back-, ward, Oh Time lu Your Flight." i This song was well worth the at tention of any one. Mrs. Cole gave a reading, "Why worry," J that was full of good cheer, l here were so many good numbers on the program that if time and space would permit would be worth men tioning at this time. But for the benefit of those who missed all of these good things will siy, do not forget to come to the next mothers' meeting. The announcement will appear in the Review later. Our superintendent of the mothers' meeting always has something good in store, The lecture given by Mrs. Shep herd Sunday afternoon at the Bap tist church was enjoyed by all fireseut. Those who missed hear ng Mrs. Shepherd missed a treat as she had so inauy encouraging things to tell us. One thing that she laid that is worth note is al though St. Johus, was defeated, the Womau's Christiau Temperance Uuion uever knew what it was to be defeated, they keep going. These defeats the pecple talk so much about only help give the temper auce workers more vim aud fight ing qualities and more determined to work for Oregou dry in Novem ber, 1910, that will mean St. Johus dry. - Mrs. Scott, Presldeut of St. Johus Uuion, had a surprise for us. She introduced Mrs. Mallet. 'County Presldeut, who took charge of the meeting. Mrs. Mailers ueip ful words of cheer and encourage ment were much appreciated by all Interested in Oregon dry. At the close of the lecture a good offering was taken to go to help . r ... ... . put uregon ury. oevcrni new mem bers came into the Union to help in the great campaign. Press Cor. Charles Brcdesou has been suc ceeded as chief of police by R. Mc- Kinney,, as per the mayors ap pointment Tuesday evening. Mr. Brcdesou has made a capable officer, aud if the city of St. Johns ever had n better chief of police than lie, it has never come to our knowledge. Straight-forward, scrupulously hon est, entirely fearless aud faithful, he has ever coiulucteu tlie aitairs 01 the office in a commendable manner. While, naturally, he may have made some enemies in the perform ance of his duties, yet he has many warm friends and he retires to pri vate life with their very best wishes for his future welfare. The new chief will no doubt measure up fully to the expectations of our citi zens. He is so well known to our people, having liecn on the police force for the past couple of years, that any comment is unnecessary. Robert Johnson, the new day patrol man, is a thorough gentleman aud is well fitted in every way to dis charge the duties of his new office. The Philo Christo entertaiumeut in Bickner hall last Tuesday even ing was a decided success. A large crowd was in attendance and every thing passed off in a most pleasing manner. The participants ucqun ted themselves exceedingly well iu each instance, aud plenty of evl deuce was shown that there is uome very good dramatic ability iu St, Johus. The audieuce highly en joyed the eutertainmeut and are anxiously awaiting the time wheu another oue shall be placed ou the boards by the Philo Christo. A niillright named Welsh at the St. Johns I.umler mills was ar rested yesterday on the charge of throwing nails nt a couple of Hin dus from the.new water tower that is under way of construction there. The evidence showed, however, that the man had no nails to throw and was not in n position to throw tliom If thev were in his nossession. so judge Bsson very rightfully dis missal the rase. The Hindus seem to be getting very "touchy" and it isdlfficult'to say whether it win ue safe to even look crosswise at them after awhile. It seems to us if a man on a tower 60 feet above the ground threw nails at us and there was a few stones hauuy we couui get enough satisfaction without ar resting the man. Upou examination for verifica tion of the tally sheets of the election officers at the city hall, all were found to be correct with the exception of that of the vote in the First Ward ot O. E. Learned for Councilman at Large. It was found that a mistake had been made in this instance of 100 votes placed to Mr. Learued's credit iu excess of what he had really re ceived, and which were never cast. The mistake without doubt was unintentional and was so obvious that it was readily discovered when the sheets were beiug verihed. Property is selling at Whitwood Court at a merry rate. An excellent reservoir is'beiug constructed which will be sufficient to supply every lot on the side hill with water, aud it is of the sparkling spring order. The time is not far distaut wheu Whitwood property will be sought as a resident site by mauy of the wealthy men of Portland on account of its admirable view aud spleudtd water.
