To a Wave
Dost thou seek n star with thy
swelling crest,
0 wave that leavst thy mother's
breast I
Dost thou leap from the prisoned
depths below
In scorn of their calm and con
stant How?
Or art thou seeking some distant
laud,
To die in murmurs upon the
strand 7
Hast thou tales to tell of the
pearl lit deep,
"Where the wave whelmed mari
ner rocks in sleep f
Canst thou speak of waves that
sunk in pride
I3re the roll of their t him lor in
echo died?
What trophies, what banners are
floating free
In the shadowy depths of the si
lent sea?
It were vain to ask as thou roll
out afar,
Of banner or mariner, ship or
star;
It were vain to seek in thy stor
my face
Some tale of the sorrowful past
to trace;
Thou art swelling high, thou art
Hushing free,
How vain are the questions we
are asking of thee!
1, too, am a wave on the stormy
sea ;
I, too, am a wanderer, driven like
thee? , ..

To bo lost and gone ere 1 rench

For the land I seek is a waveless

And they who seek it shall wan

A. A. Muck Announces
A. A. Muck has announced his
candidacy for the office of Coun
ty Commissioner. Mr. Muck is
one of our best known citizens.
He lias served as County Com
missioner and during his term of
office, which he filled with credit
to his constituents and himself
as well, he accomplished more for
th's part of the county than any
ot. or man who served as County
Commisioncr. The people of the
IV.iinsula district especially
sh mid give earnest suport to
Mr. MueVs candidacy. He has
tin- Millowing to say regarding
county affairs:
In timet like these, when our
people are taxed to the limit,
county expenditures should ho as
economical as is consistent witli
oflleient service. No costly .en
terprises should he undertaken.
Existing buildings and bridges
should be repaired instead of be
ing replaced by expensive new
structures. Such was uniformly
my policy when I served before
as 'county commissioner.
I am opposed to the county
commissioners present system of
devoting only a portion of their
time to county affairs. Tito conn
(v'h liMsini'SH is important enough
1 1 (l ii ii. ! I all of he county
l.o.n'd' time to admiuster it.
ii' eljuto.l, I shall insist that
Multnomah county receive its
rightTuI share of the receipts
from the Interstate Hridge. This
is not the ease at present. Clarke
county has already received
more than its proportionate share
of the bridge bond issue, but
Multnomah county still owes
nearly $1, 000,000 on acount of
the bridge,
Interstate bridge funds should
he audited by the county auditor
and turned over to (he county
treasurer, who is under bond.
This would savo the taxpayers
!1J()0 per year, whieh is the sala
ry of an extra accountant the
Furni
ture
tore
county board has employed to
audit these funds.
I favor home labor, home con
tractors and home products.
On account of the increasing
tax burden in this county, the
law authorizing payment of an
extra $000 annually to each
Multnomah county commissioner
for attending one meeting per
month of the Interstate bridge
commission, should be repealed.
This would ell'eet an annual sav
ing of $1800 to t tic taxpayers.
My slogan is this: My record
for economical administration
when Commissioner before, guar
antees similar economy now.
Mr. Muck holds membership in
a number of civic and fraternal
organizations, among them being
the Huilders hxcliange, Associa
ation of Huilding and Construe
tion, Multnomah Camp Y. O. W.,
Jjoyal Order of Moose, the Dad
dies' Club, the Ilydro-Klootrienl
League and the Portland Hose
Society..
Community ehuroh activities
are allowing n deeper spiritual in
terest, especially in view of the
Haster season. All services were
well attended last Sunday. The
little folks are busy preparing an
Iinster program winch will be
given at the Sunday school peri
od the coming Sunday. Pro-Haste
r meetings have been held each
night this week; they will close
on Saturday evening. The choir
is getting a number of special
pieces ready for the morning ser
vice. The Young People's Chor
us will sing three specials at the
evening service. There will be
Master service in the morning. tin1
topic being, Uiscu With Christ.
The evening thought will he iu
the form of" a sermon story, The
New Peter. A number have sig
nified their intention of joining
the church at the morning serv
ice. Several of the men spent
last Saturday afternoon putting
the church grounds iu shape.
However, they did not comnletc
the job and plan to finish it the
coming Saturday. The new song
hooks are hero and are proving a
j-eal inspiration. The selection of
hymns are t ho most practical
that we nave hceii able to find in
any of the books examined. Mas
ter will have a real niuuuiuir and
satisfaction for those who wor
ship with a church thai sings.

Automobile Liability
Automobile liability insurance covers in
jury 'to a person for which you may be held
liable. Perhaps more important even than
fire or theft insurance is this liability cover
age. A loss by fire or theft is limited to the
value of your car, while the damage you may
be held liable for by personal injury may in
volve every penny you have. Property dam
age insurance, which covers damage to other
property for which you may be held respon
sible, can be added at a reasonable rate.

athletes were victorious iu the
first night's events and thereby
ipialilied for the main events the
succeeding night. In the first
match of the evening "Clrit"
hind lost u decision to a much
heavier man than he in the Hf
pound class. This was one of the
most gruelling matches of the
tournament and Lind showed his
class by breaking every hold his
more experienced and heavier
opponent clamped on. This went
ten minutes to a decision.
"Skoot" Lind proved the dark
horse of the mass of entries when
he tossed one of the toughest
wrestlers iu the city in one min

meet was between "Mat" Lind,
the local boy, and n hard hitting
lad representing H'nni It'rith.
This was a good match and so
evenly contested that the three
judges ruled another round at
the expiration of the customary
three. In the final round young

Mrs. Goblc Passes Away
Elizabeth Keyes Goble died at
the home of her son.Geo. W. Par
ker of this city, Friday.April 7th,
aged 07 years. She was born in
Minnesota in ISfiS and crossed
the plains by ox team in 1803.
She settled in Brownsville, Ore
gon, and was married to James
M. Parker, a pioneer of 1814, iu
1871. Kive children were born
of this union: Mrs. Hattie Bent
ley, deceased Mrs. Ella Corbett,
deceased; Mrs. Jack Juengst of
Seattle; Mrs. Jack Ilamer and
Mr. George Parker of Portland.
At her husband's death she re
turned to Brownsville and later
married Geo. W. Goble. Three
children were born, nil living:
Carl Goble, Port Angeles, Wash.
Mrs. Sterling May of St. Johns,
and Harry C. Goble of Portland.
After Mr. Goble's death in 1012,
ho resided among her several
children. Airs. Goble had been
bedfast for seven years, living in
St. Johns witli Iter daughter, Mrs.
May, for the past two years, un
til January of this year when her
'sou took her to his home. Pun
era I services were held at the
home of her daughter. Inter
ment, took place at the Hiverview
cemetery.
the coming year, the Bachelor
Club will no doubt placo more
men and win more events during
11)2:1.
If you have any good books
that you have read and are will
ing to part with, give them to the
Library. While the circulation
of books has increased by nine
teen per cent, the library hook
liuying fund has not. It costs
more to buy a new book, costs
more to replace a lost or worn
out hook, costs moro to prepare a
book for the shelves than it ever
did before. Somebody needs that
thoroughly good book which you
have finished reading. Give it to
the public library. Copies of the
Popular Mechanics, St. Nicholas
and house plan magazines for
clipping are also ipiito accepta
ble. Look over your supply.
A party advertised a rangu for
sale in last week's Review. Tim
range was, sold iu no time, as
there was over a dozen persons
after it. Advertising iu the Re
view is always worth while.
Try it.

Commissioner Barbur is rather
strongly iu favor of the plan of
increasing the assessed valuation
of property iu Portland mid re
ducing the mill rate of taxation
proportionately, so that the act
ual taxes levied would he no
more than at present. By this
plan, whieh appears to be a
very good one, street work could
be prosecuted with much less
hardship upon the property own
er, because with a higher valua
tion property could he bonded
for the full improvement without
a cash outlay. In this connection
why would it not also he a good
plan to make the bunded term
fifteen or twenty years instead of
ten, as now obtains?
If the ground hog did not see

have done so, judging from the
weather that has fid lowed in the
