NAYOR IS ASKED TO VETO Six Members of Municipal Body Votes to Grant Freight Privilege Over Main Street. Oonncilmou Chapman, Mason, Just in, 131 ly, Straight aud Brandt voted Sat urday night to grant to the Oregon "Water p0wer and Railway Company a freight franchise over Main street lor it period of Ho years. Kunpp and Koerner voted against the nionsure nd Mr. Williams was not present. These six inemhois ot the council enacted an ordinance that lias heeu a bone of contention among the people of Oregon City for the fast two months. Protests have been filed, ronst ranees have been presented, ttr injunctions have been secured, and the opponents of the measure have exhausted evory means within their power to prevent the passage for the ordinance, and Judge Fruitier, of the Multnomah Ourcuit Court, Saturday afternoon uphold the contention ot City Attorney Franklin T. Urirtith that a legislative body cannot be en -joined, sustained a demurrer to the complaint of K. O. Oautield, and dis solved the temporary restraining order granted by Oounty Judge Ryan, thus removing tne liual obstacle to t he leu aotment of the franchise. K. G. Oautield. W. L. Block, Frank T. Barlow, J. W. Cole, John Adams, Williaui Andreseu, Thomas F. Kvnn, Frauk Bunch, W. A. Huntley, O. D. Khy and II. E. Cross waited on .the mayor Saturday morning, and asked him lit he would veto the ordinance, providing a petition making this re quest and signed by 50 more than halt the voters was presented to him, but Dr. Soiumer refused to commit him self. A petition has been placed in circu lation asking Mayor Sommer to stamp the franchise with his official veto. It is reasonable to assuiuo that heill not object to its becoming operative, unless he has ohauged his views. If the mnyor neither signs or vetoes the ordinance within tou days, the ineaa- nre will beoome a law without his signature. It is considered probable that the mon who have antagonized the fran chise will ask the interference of the courts to prevent the railwayjcompany from operating under the Provisions of the measure. It is absolutely certain that tho opposition is laying plans to this end, and the fight is not yet over. LIBERAL. SUDDEN DEATH OF CLARENCE LARSON Son of Stafford Farmer Killed By Accidental Discharge of Rifle. Clarence Larson, the 17-ycar-old son of Peter Larson, met instant death at Stafford Saturday evening by the accidental discharge of a rille, and the body was interred in Stafford cem etery Monday morning. The young man was plowing a potato field, and with him was a younger brother, who picked up the stray potatoes, as they were turned to the surface by the1 plow. Clarence had a rille, in the i hope of getting a shot at a pheasant. ! About dusk they started to the house j a short distance away, putting the po-1 tatoes on a sled in a sack. The younu:-1 er hoy drove a horse, and Clarence sat j behind him with the gun in his lap. The driver's back was turned to Clar ence, and he was horrified to hear a ' report of the gun, and turning quickly, saw Clarence tumble from the back of the sled to the ground. lie stopped the horse and ran to his brother's side. The bullet had penetrated his brain, and death was almost instantaneous. The plucky lad shouted for help, but he was not heard, and he dragged his brother's body onto the sled and drove home with his lifeless burden. Coro ner Hoi man was notified of the cir cumstances surrounding .the accident and decided that an inquest was un necessary. The sad affair is a terri ble shock to the Stafford community. Man's Unreasonableness Is often as great as woman's. But Thos. S. Austin, manager of the "Re publican," of Leavenworth, Iud., was not unreasonable, whon he re fused to allow the doctors to operate ou his wife for female trouble. "In stead," lie says, "we concluded to try Kleetrio Bitters. My wife was then so sick, she could hardly leave her bed, and five physicians bad failed to relieve her. After taking Electric Bitters, she was perfectly enred, and now can perform all her household duties." Guaranteed by Howell & Joues, Druggists. Price, 50a Courier only $ 1.50 per year . 1-1 lag This fine weather Is making the farmers get a wiggle on them. Seed ing is going at a rapid rate, and the roads are dusty. A great many beef cattle are being driven to market as they come out of the mountains in fine shape. F. Wann drove a fine band of sheep to Portland, Friday last. H. Chase has rented the Nellie Bogue farm. Mr. Chase Is from Wis consin and will spend one winter in Oregon before he purchases a farm. H. W.

For sale by Geo. A. Harding, Druggist. WILHOIT. Weather is fine and dry. Messrs. Ponmann, Brier and O. S. Boyles loft this country the first of November for the Jmines on Molalln, for a three mouths' job. Most likely snow will carpet the ground before they return. Frauk Bagby has been visiting on Ooal Creek for a few days in search of timber. Joseph Oflield, who lives in tho mountains above .Riches' mill, says cougars seem to be plenty as .three of those ugly beasts have been seen re cently. Stockmen are busy gathering in their cattle while the weather is good. Cattle are scattered this fall but grass is plenty and they will do well. Mr. Flays, of Portland, visited L. B. Trulliuger last week and preached at Mr. Truilinger's house. Mrs. Wiugfleld is improving. Her trouble was caused by the'upsetting of a hack in which she was riding. If farmers do not set their grain sown, it will not be on acoount of bad weather, as we could not have munii bettor. Beef buyers are visiting this section frponentlv. but some of the cattle nwimrs rin not like the nrice thev offer. ana it spoils some saies. Scott Carter had the misfortune to hranb liia ornhlina while Drubbing. which caused a halt in his good work. We hope Scott will have better luok in the future. Some hunters passed through this country, having killed eigne aeer in the hunt. HARDING GRANGE. A comedy of such unquestionable fame as "The Marriage of Kitty," pre sented by a cast headed by such a popular and clever artiste as Alice Johnson, and the whole under the direction of Jules Murry, is a triple assurance of a delightful and novel entertainment at Shiveley's Opera House, on Saturday, November 11. Jules Murry's companies are always high-class, and always contain good material, but it may be questioned if any company or play he has sent out this season has proven to be of such excellence or capable of creating so much laughter and wholesome enjoy ment as this, his comedy company, in "The Marriage of Kitty." Son Lost Mother. "Consumption runs in our family and throueh it I lost my mother," writes E. B. Reid, of Harmony, Me. "For the past five years, however, on the slightest sign of a oough or cold, I nave taken Dr. King's New Discov ery for Consumption, which lias saved me from serious lung trouble. " His mother's death was a sad loss for Mr. Reid. but he learned that lung trouble must not be neglected, aud how to cure it. Quickest relief ana cure ior coughs aud colds. Price, 50o and guaranteed at Howell & Jones' drug gtore. Trial bottle free. MRS. ELIZABETH KELLOGG. The body of Mrs. Elizabeth Kel logg, who died last Saturday in Hunts ville, Ala., aged 83 years, is being brought here for burial, and is ex pected to arrive the last of this week. The funeral will probably be held Sunday from the residence of her son, E. E. Kellogg. The deceased leaves two sons in this city, E. E. and J. H. Kellogg, and leaves a son and daugh- Backeye extracts are right. At the last regular meeting, there was an attendance of 39, not very large for Harding, but we have a good ly number on the roll of honor and expect to make a good showing for the prize offered by the state lecturer, for the grange having the largest number that attended every meeting during the year. Several have only missed one meeting. Several appli cations were received. It was de cided to dig a well. Mrs. Anderson had an interesting program for the lecturer's hour. Ma hala Gill read an excellent paper on the subject of rural schools in which she advocated consolidation and trans portation of pupils. Some remarks were made on the subject of char acter influence. O. D. Robbins and F. P. Wilson told what they had learned at the Lewis and Clark fair. The subject of giving alms to beggars being introduced, proved a lively one and nearly all the numerous talkers were of the opinion that most beggars are frauds and that giving to them is wrong as encouraging vagrancy and inviting future visits from other mem bers of their secret guilds. H. S. Anderson, under the head of current events, spoke interestingly of the sit uation In Russia and touched upon Oregon's disgrace In the matter of congressional representation. Next time will be election day and the at tendance will likely be up to high water mark as Is proper. MILWAUKIE GRANGE. Members Divide to Contest For a Banquet in January. The regular meeting of Milwaukie Grange, held last Friday evening was one of the most enjoyable since the Grange was organized. The Grange has been divided into two sides for a literary contest. Every declama tion, lecture, charade, musical num ber, debate, etc., counts a certain number of points and the object is to see which side gets the most points by the end of the year, the losing side to furnish a banquet for the whole Grange at the first night meeting In January. Friday night one side answered roll call with favorite quo tations, the other side with what they liked best at the LewU and Clarke Fair. Then there were a number of three minute talks, recitations, musi cal numbers, original stories, etc., and it was the opinion of each one of the large number present that this was the most pleasant Grange meeting they had ever attended.
