MULINO, Or., Oct. respondence. Happy perous Mulino ! This for this little hamlet 18. (Staff Oor. Mulino 1 Pros is the outlook and this 13 the apijeiaiiun we nier to oor article we write on these happy and contented people. Mulino -wind and storm looked, a haven of rest from the ele ments, cold and heat in winter and summer, a safe harbor for man at all times. The plaoe is romantio the scenery grand and no artist with brush can overdo or give her credit as to loveliness, cleanliness and grandeur . The bluffs and hills form a protec tion from the sweeping winds and the forests stand as sentinels guarding the sun from the hob rays in summer. The farming country around Muliuo is rolling and water never stands on cul tivated fields. The many beautiful farms surrounding the place make the town a paradise. All sorts ot fruit is grown in abundance and the full gran aries attest to the good qualities of the soil and to the thrift of the farmer. Mulino against the world I It has everything that can adduce tb the couifort of man and make him satisfied with his surroundings. It has three daily mail routes, one a star route and two rural routes ,a long distance tele phone and agency, a postoflloe, good school, two religions denominations, holding bervices regularly, a country store, a good flouring mill, capable of turning out two oarloads of flour evory 24 hours, a lovely stream of pure water tnat creeps past throuahfohaue. green fields and timbered land. MnHno people will welcome the newcomer and hold out thB hand ot good fellowship. The era of good feeling txists here and this commun ity ii anxious to see the. homeseeker pay ti.em 11 visit ; see, taste, of theit generosity and then become one of them or a citizen of Clackamas county. Mnlino can boast of good roads, fences, houses and barns, horses, fall bins and fair women. We can vounh for this. We have tasted of uie generosity or tne good people and can say tney are an right. 1 our correspondent is under obliga- tious to U. r. Howard, postmaster ana proprietor or the Mulino Flour Mill, for facts and figures concerning hub nciie Deenive or a community. Mr. Howard owns oevr 500 acres of land through which Mill creek creeDs. and informs us that he will dispose of it at prices ranging from $30 to $50 per aore in quantities from one aore up, whiob comprises timber Ht for logs or telephone oosts. or farming ana town lots. He is the nronrietor of the townsite and naturally wants his home town to prosper, lie offers inducements for a good blacksmith to locate there, giving him a shop, anvil, bellows, tools, eto., rent free. A gouu uooior, pnysioian or surgeon is neeaea. a doctor willing to grow and work np a country practioe can do well there, he having a large and thickly settled soope of country to Nerve, iaaeea we Know or no better openings for the two professions men tioned here, and are certainly worth looking over and ' taken in out of the wet." Mr. Howard grinds two brands of flour at1 his mill, both famous and sought after by Oregon Oity merchants Deoanse or their reliability and uni formity. Graham and a breakfast food called - Germea are a delioious product for the housewife, and it will not be amiss to say that Mr. Howard has been awarded silver medals by the judges in charge of tne Claokamas oounty ehxibit at the Exposition just closed at Portland. Aside from keep ing his mill going grinding flour for Oregon Oity his country trade is ex tending in millinng teed and his ship ments are enormous. Nothing but liara winter wheat is milled and this is the secret of why Howard makes gooa nour. E. J. Maple is the gentlemanly head mi Her and the right man in the right place. During the present ill- ness or the proprietor, Mr. Maple has been a very busy .man, but his cour teous treatment of customers, com bined with his knowledge of making good flour, has doubly endeared Mr. Maple to all. 80 we will say, while the mills do grind slowly, Howard's mill grinds fast and well thanks to Mr. Maple. Good roads leading to Mulino are the key to the pleasant relations existing between the residents of that thriving little hamlet and the general public The people are jovial and Iibddv. oon. tented and prosperous. Mrs. O. T. Howard transacted busi ness in Oregon Oitv last Fridav. na. isting her husband in his milling bus iness. We are pleased to see O. T. Howard on the road to recovers, hs just convalescing from a ten days' at- nu 01 grippe or some other ailment. But his mill runs right along. Mulino is Godly, as well ashealthr. pretty and progressive. Two proaoh ers preach the word of God and en deavor to lead the denizens in the path of righteonsnoss. The Free Meth odists hold services each Sabbath morning, conducted by Rev. Wiles. Sabbath sohool at 10 a. m. The M. E. people hold services once a month, Rev. Lockwood, ot Molalla, conduct ing services. Jbioth gentlemen are well spoken of and appreciated by the people The attendance of pupils at the sev eral schools m the Mulino district will be considerably augmented or en larged upon as the terms advance or as soon as the youngsters get some of the oat-of-doors chores dbue or the apple ana potato crops garnered. Mis - Lillie Gaus, one of the popu lar teachers in the Aurora district, vis ited Mr. and Mrs. O. T. Howard over Sunday. She has an attendance of 80 pupils at her school. Molalla Grange, No. 40, can boast of as good a hall of its own as any in tho county, it being 80 feet long and two Rtories high, with a large shed to aocomraodate as a horse stable. One of the features of this Grange is the fact that it fosters and aocepts insur ance of both life and fire. Your cor respondent is indebted 10 Mrs. Mary S. Howard for a copy of the last meet ing of the Oregon State Grance held at Forest Grove May 23-20. 1905, and its financial condition is flattering in- ded. The report is ably gotten up and reflects credit on the author and s ec retary, Mrs. Howard. Molalla Grange No. 40 celebrated its 32d anniversary nn last Saturday, being probably one of the oldest Granges in Clackamas county. It was organized in 1878. Three of its char ter members are still in attendance and alive to see it flourish and grow and prosper, namely : Mr. and Mrs. Knox and O. T. Howard. The Grange met and celebrated the event on last Saturday, 86 members being in good standing. Amoug the officers are R. A. Wright, master; O. S. Howard, lecturer; R. A. Howard, secretary. Miss Minnie Trullinger is the teac'ier in the Mulino sohool, District No. 84, she having a term of seven mouths. About 21 pupils are in at tendance just now, but the attendance will be better later on. She is an able successor of Miss Mable Kennedy, who is now teaching at Parkplaoe. Good progress is beiug made upon the bridge the county is building east of Mulino, across Mill oreek. Mr. Owens is the builder and contractor and is said to be doing a good job. The general health of the commun ity is good, barring slight attacks of rheumatism and oolds. We are pleased to learn that Mrs. M. Manning's local trade is expand ing. Mrs Manning aims to keep on hand a general Btook of 'dry goods, crockery, grooeries, tobacco, oigars, notions, confectionery, canned goods, etc By close application to her busi ness, she is building up a good trad? ana merits a portion of the oountry trade, nor goods are fresh and has the only general store in Mnlino. Fall plowing, seediug and potato aigging are tne occupations now that oommand the attention of the progres j sive farmers. Fall plowing and ing is backward and has been retarded by the recent and continued ra'ns. The prudent wifo is now turning off the old poultry on the place to make room for the coming hen whose use fulness can be improved by giving her good shelter and feed. Eggs at 80 cents a dozen is not to be sneered at. COL. STIFELKNEOHT. BURGLAR PLAYS PIANO. Musician's Passion For Art Leads to His Detection. The family of James Allenbauoh, of Elyria, Ohio, was aroused Friday night by the sound of their piano. Allenbauch found a roughly dressed man seated at the grand piano, play ing Handel's "Messiah." One classic followed another for some time. Then the fellow still un conscious of his auditors, fell toward on the piano, his head buried in his arms. At the first move of Allenpaugh he leaped to his feet as if to escape. Be ing assured there was no danger, he gave the nairfe fo John Sohmuuk. He says he was a musician by profession but became criminal and served a term in prison. He said he had en tered the house to rob it. On seeing the piano he could not resis.t the temptation to tonch the keys. Schmunk was given a plaoe "to slee.i, a suit of olothes and a $20 bill to start him upward again.

"HARMONY" CONVENTION Conference Was Composed of Machine Forces. DISCREDIT THE IMTATIVE Oregon Republicans Endorse the President, Who Is Sending Leaders to Prison. In spite of the widely advertised "harmony" convention of the Republi can party held in Portland last week to which 10,000 Republican loaders from various parts of he state were in vited, there were loss than 500 present when the oonention was oalled to order, and a majority of those were furnished by the cities of Portland, Oregon Oity and Salem. Although all factions had been invicod, tho vast majority of those present were a dher ents to Senator Fulton and they dom inated the convention. A few of the Simon leaders were present and they were repsoDsible for the adoption of a resolution endorsing President Roosevelt in these words: "In his battle for civic righteous ness he is entitled to the oo-operation of all good citizens." This was the only expression ot the convention which might be construed as an endorsement of the laud fraud proseoutions and it was adopted after a hot debate in which friends of Sen ator Mitchell stated that it was under stood that it was an attempt to throw a clond upon the standing in the party of Sonator Mitchell and Congressmen Hermann and Williamson. The conference was mostly oom posed of maohine forces and although the machine Blate was broken in the eloo tion of a chairman, they carried their points in all other inattors. Not a word was said about railway regula tion and freight rate reform. The not result of the convention wag to discredit the initiative amendment to the state constitution by the adop tion of resolutions to hold a state con vention and make a party platform re gardluBS of the previous action by the people in the primaries. This action is oonstiued as au attempt to nullify the direct primary law and revert to the former regime when "intelligent leaders" as one of the speakers put it, directed the course of political events. The amusing feature of the conven tion is the endorsement of President Roosevelt and his battle for oivic righteousness when at the same mo ment President Roosevelt is sending the Republican party leaders of Ore gon to the penitentiary as fast as the courts can grind out the grist of justice. OREGON APPLES IN DEMAND. Inquiry Comes For Our Fruit From Lone Star State. The reputation of Oregon apples has reached far away Texas, and at Mon day night's meeting of the Board of Trade a communication was read from that state asking for prices on apples, in either barrels or boxes in carload lots. Correspondence from Clackamas county apple growers is invited by the Board of Trade, with a view of securing a better market for home fruit production. The proposition of the Oregon Bl- enna Co. to establish a paint factory here was rererred to H. is. Uross, as it Booms that there are no available sites in the oity that are suitable for a paint factory that are within the reach of the price that the promoters want to pay. Mr. Cross has desirable land at Uladtsone and will take up the matter with the paint company, wUh a view to seouring the location of the factory on his land. Many communications have been reoeeived from intending settlers from all parts of the United States, and literature has been sent in answer to inquiries by Seoretary Campbell. PUSSY STARTLES OFFICERS. Empty Sardine Can and Cat Disturbs the County Jail. Pussy cat and an empty sardine oan Sunday night gave a fine imitation of saw tiling at the city jail, arousing the suspicions of Night Officer Hhaw, who was patrolling thestreet in front of the courthouse. An unusual noise caused him to stop and listen and he heard distinctly the irregnlar soratoh of a saw being drawn aoioss metal. The officer immediately conjoctured that some of the prisoners in the jail had prooured a saw and were trying to effect their liberty and he aroused Jailer Peter Nchrcn, who lives just across the street from the courthouse. Mr. Nohren made a thorough investi gation, bnt found that the bars on the cell were tight and that none of them showed evidence of having been tam pered with. Monday morning ha looked further and was rewarded by finding an empty sardine can that the j ill cat had been playing with. The noise of the oan being drawn acros? the cement floor is very like the sound caused by a saw or file coming in oon tact with metal.
