Campaign
The members of the Woman's Club
of Oregou Citv are roused to the work
as helpers to the Commercial Club iu
its fight to keep Olaokamas ooauty
undivided. At the regular mooting,
Oot. 13th the, club passed a resolution
to this purpose.
Eaoh club member will write to
voter frieuds io every county of the
state, urging their vote aod personal
influence to defeat the anuexaion ot
this valuable part of Clackamas coun
ty to Multnomah. Already many let
ters are speeding on their niissiou.
Dr. A. L. Biatie will supply all who
call at h.s office in the Masonic build
ing" with print d material famished
by fie Uoiuinereial Olub, giving reas
ons for opposing the annexation.
This letter writing aud bersoual cam
paign is not confined to the Woman s
Club, hut they are to urge every
friena to como into the work and to
than increase cue nnmbdr of workers
After the victory is wo , the Wom
an's Club will stand ready to work in
getting better roads into Oregon City
aud iu establishing better conditions
to meet the fanners when they come
to bring their produce iu eitlior for
cash or trade.- The Olub has a rest
room for this purpose in rooms 15 aud
16 in the Masonic building for their
comfort and convenience. These
rooms are always warm and oozily
famished and have all the necessary
conveniences so frequently inacessible
to those away from home.
It is desired that a friendly, person
al appeal be sent ont at once enclos
ing a printed tolder if possible. The
time is short, the work important.
The remotest counties of the state
have the same right to vote against
division and annexation measures as
the counties immediately concerned
and should not fail to make their
votes count und place this matter
where it belongs, in the comities
where such an expensive move was
desired.
Through the efforts and a petition of
the many residents of Gladstone, liv
ing near the Clackamas river, a new
depot is being ereoted which will ac
commodate both passengers and
freight, it being of good size, about 28
by 30. This will ba very convenient
to the south Gladstone people, as the
distance to the present depot is quite
a long one and much time is lost iu
- walking the distance to the cars. J ,

ward about recommending the good
work of State Deputy Dairy Inspector

per cent The dairy inspector shows

ALDER STREET AT SEVENTH
;

Oct. 11 Hie taheruaclo meotings at
Eighth and Center streets continue to
draw large orowds. Mr. Taylor has
been preaching preparatory sermons
to Christians. Tonight he will begin
his messages to the non-Christian ele
ment. The first sermon in this serieB
will he on "A Square Deal." Thnrs
day evening the tojiio will be "The
Paramount Issue in Life;" Friday
night, "If Souls Were Diamonds."
The tabernacle has boen beautifully
decorated with flags andJiuuling, and
the floor overlaid with sawdust and
shavings. Lights are being hnng out
in various directions, tucking the tab
ernacle perfectly accessible. At 7
o'clock touight a street meeting will
be held at the corner of Seventh and
Main streets. Kev. Landborough will
sp9ak. Evangelist Taylor spoke elo
quently last night and his talk was
full of helpful thought. His. sermons
are pleasing. The singing was en
joyed, as was also the solo- by Mr.
Weguer..
Out. 13 About (100 people 'gathered
at the tabernacle Inst evjning, with a
large ohoir of 75 present. The musio,

INTEREST INTENSE
Hundreds Attend ind
Many Are Converted
The Music by Prof.
Wegner Much
Appreciated
the servicos , George W, Taylor, the
evangelist, took for his theme, "A
Square Deal." He delivered the first
of his messages to the non-Christian
element. Preceding the fervice, Har
old Swnflord pleased the audience
with two whistling solos aud Paul
Taylor, the boy singer, rendered a
pleasing number. Duriug the even
ing L A. Weguer, the musical direc
tor, favored the congregation with an
effective solo, "The Old Account Was
Settled Long Ago."
Oct. 14. A merry laugh was pro
duced at the big tabernacle last night
when Professor Wegner sang a tukeoif
entitled, "Serving the Lord iu My
Weak Way." This was a sensation
from the first verse to the last and
made the inconsistent church member
wince. Evangelist Taylor followed
with a fiery sermon in which he de
nounced in the most scathing terms
the lawlessness of society. His sub
ject was "The Paramount Issue iu
Life." He deulared obedience to be
the true test of character. Mr.JTay
lor held his vast audience for nearly
au hour and not a person moved or
left the building. Tonight, he will
speak on the topic, "It Souls Were
Diamonds." Mr. Taylor's .scholar
ship enables him to combine the mod
em evangelistic methods of address
with those of the most highly cult
ured Chautauqua lecturer and the
combination serves ellectually iu
drawing all classes to the taberenacle.
Oct. 15. At the big tabernacle last
night a large audience assembled,
and Mr. Taylor preached an extraordi
nary semon. He portrayed in vivid
style the value of the human soul, and
showed the necessity for active work
on the part of Christians in saving the
people. Miss Grace Shewman sang a
solo, accompanied with a violin by
Mr. Des Larzes. Panl Taylor, the
boy singer, also sang At the olose rjf
the sermon Mr. Taylor gave the invi
tation for confessions and 15 people
came forward aud pubulicly Indenti
fied themselves with the church.
A large street banner has been hung
on Seventh street, announcing to the
public the meetings. The committee
lias placed that banner there by the
authority of the city, and a liberal re
ward will be given for the apprehen
sion of any one who attempts to cut
it down or destroy it
Oct. 17. Religious sensationalism
held sway in this city yesterday.
Evangelist Taylor held two great
meetings iu the tabernacle. In the
afternoon the Sunday schools marched
to the meeting waving their pennants
and banners, headed by their teachers
and superintendents. Mr. Taylor
talked to the children in a very forci
ble way and illustrated his points
with objoot lessons from the platform.
The children were given an oppor
tunity to express their faith in Christ
t the olose of the talk and more than
a hundred ranging between the ages
of u and 17 came forward, Mr. Tay
or, after giviug them a course of in
struction, confirmed them to a Chris
tian life. It was a very iiapressive
scene. At night the tabernacle was
taxed with an audience of over 1500.

Mr Tayor prefaced his regular sormou
with remarks concerning the meeting
in Shiveiy's hall, being addressed by
Clarence Harrow, He characterized
Darrow as the "great Chicago crimi
nal liar." He declared that Mr. Dar
row 's statements to the effect that
good people had done more evil than
bad people could net be improved up
on as a lie if the devil himself should
come ont of hell and make the effort.
The audience cheered Taylor. Scores
of laboring men were present and
cheered Taylor's statement that Dar
row did not represent labor but ttiat
he represented the lawless dynamiters
and anarohiBt class. At the close of
the sermon six adults came forward
and embraced the Christian faith.
The prayer of confirmation was
o tiered by Professor Wegner. To
night Wegner will sing "Serving the
Lord in My Weak Way. " The song
services at the beginning of the meet
ing are of special interest, Sunday
evening Miss Ona Benuer saug a solo.
Harold Swafford gave a whistling
number, and Professor L. A. Wegner
sang "Face to Faoe."
Oot. 18 Evangelist Taylor, at the
tabernacle, is certainly warming
everything and everybody up that
comes under the head of vice, graft,
drink or corruption -of any kind, and
the manner in which ha vehemently
pours out the wrath upon the heads of
the followers of unbelief and law
breaking is enough to cause their hair
to turn gray while they sleep, and it
is doubtful if many of them sleep af
ter hearing him. Last evening he
talked on "Searoh iu Question," and
this evening his topio will be "What
Shall I Do to Be Saved?" and this
he promises will he covered in a fully
understandable manner. The way he
is working up the people to a fever
heat with the fire of religion and
turning people from tiie paths of sin,
is enough to startle the corruption of
any community. The song service
oontinues to attraot, and the audience
enters into the spirit of the songs
with the greatest zest.
Oot. 19. Eeleven adults oame for
ward at the tabernacle last night and
embraced the Christian faith Evan
gelist Taylor preaohed poweitully on
thesubjeot "What Shall I.Do to Bo
Saved?" Prof. Wegner "will sing
"You Had Better Unload," by Cap
taingStanley.
Oct. 20. A large atteudauoe gath
ered at the tabernacle last evening to
hear the "Cyclone Evangelist, " who
spoke with eloqnonce on the sbujoct
"How to Know." Great enthusiasm
was manifested In the audience and
several went forward and expressed
their desire to load a new life. The
musio is a special feature and the dit
ty entitled "You Must Unload" by
Mr. A. L. Weguer was received with
a great deal of applause, as was the
cornet solo, "May Morning," by Mrs,
Taylor.
This is the third week that Mr.
Taylor and his able assistants have
beeu in Oregon City and it would be
hard to judge the vast amount of good
that has been done.

ALL LINING UP
FOR DIMICK
There s re manv principles that
Walter A. Dimick, the candidate for
the ollice of state Benator, stands for,
and a summary of some of tne most
important furnish mighty interesting
reading for the voters in ClackamaB
county who desire legislative matters
attended to with a faithfulness and
conservatism so much sought by the
common people. In the first place
Mr. Dimiok says that he stands for
the direct primary law and its preser
vation because it has taken ring rule
and bossism out of politios ; for a con
tinuance of the rights of the people to
rule without the aid of any political
dictation ; for the most striot economy
iu all appropriations, beoauBe exces
sive appropriations means increased
state taxes. Ho stands against the
creation of additional useless boards
and commissions, because they merely
creatt) political berths for oflice seek
ers and political debts at the publio's
expense; against special privileges in
all forms, to corporations, monied in
terests or individuals. The rights of
property must be protected, but suoh
rights must be made subservient to
the rights of the people. He stands
against any measure the purpose ot
which is to nullify or repeal the Di
reot Primary law. He has signed
Statement. Mo. 1, and if elected will
vote for the people's choioe for United
Statos senator; believes in Statement
Mo. 1, beoause it has taken bribery,
corruption and log rolling out of our
legislature. -
He represented the people of Clack
amas county in the last session ot
the legislature and materially - assist
ed in breaking the normal school com
bination, taking the stand that one
normal school was enough. He led
the tight against the bill authorizing
assemblies and that bill was killed.
He led the fight against the bill to
make it a misdemeanor to sign State
ment No. 1, also against the bill re
pealing the people's instruction law
enacted by the electorate at last elec
tion instructing BouatoiB aud repre
sentatives to vote for the people's
choice for United Statos senators,
roth of whioh wore defeated, lie
stood against measures carrying ex
cessive appropriations and fought the
bill lor a constitutional convention,
whioh if approved by the electorate of
this state will necessitate three spe
cial elootions and expenditure of
enormous amounts of money. '
Iu the last session of the legislature
he was ohaiiman of the judiciary
committee of the House, the most im
portant comtniitoe In that body.
This commute handlod 84 bills,
about one half of which were killed
by that committee. There are enough
laws today. What is needod is fewer
and bottor laws, less complication in
legislation.
Mr. Dimick opposed the holding or
recent state and oounty assembly aud
tne voters may rely on IiIb continuing
his policy in the future either in or
out of the senate. He is on record,
let it be remembered; aud not on
promise, and the Courier is confident
that he will repeat his record attained
In the house of representatives, and
owing to ttie fact of his experience,
he will be able to do still better. He
has made one of the hottest fights in
favor of tho primary laws and State
ment No, 1 ever made in Claokamas
county, aud the People appreciate his
efforts sufficiently to give him the
Bupport that is due. There should be
taken into consideration what such a
man is worth to the poeple of any
community, county or state. '
New Quarters
The grocery firm of Jack & Albright
have moved into their fine, new, up-to-date
building which they have just
completed at 011 Soveutli street.
Everything hreutiraiy new, with au
added amount of shelf room. The
arrangement is splendid for this line
of business and they carry all that one
would desire.from a grocery.
Football Saturday
Another, the second of the season's
football games sohedulod by the Ore
gon City high school team, is an
nounced for Saturday, Oot. 22., at
Chautauqua Park. This game will be
played with the Lincoln high school
team, of Portland, and promises to be
a warm number. The Lincoln boys
have been playing over the country
considerable and have been putting op
a pretty strong game, and the local
bunch are looking for a tussle with
odds about even on results. '
Miss Alma Good, of St. Paul,
Minn.; hai arrived in Oregon City and

LOCAL WRITER GOES
TO HAWAII ISLANDS
Mrs. Eva Emery Dye Will
Spend Some Months Col
lecting Data for New
Publication
In literary ciroles there is one event
happening that is of the greatest in
terest to Oregon Oity people, and in
fact the whole state of Oregou and the
West. The departure of Mrs. Eva
Emery Dye, of this city, on Wednes
day, for Honolulu, Hawaii ' Islands.
Mrs. Dye will spend some months on
the iBlands, where she will collect
data for the foundation of a book
that will be given to the publishers -soon,
This book will treat upon the
earlier relation of Oregon and the
Islands and their people,, and will
oontain an historical work that has
had very little attention and whioh
wilU be of the greatest interest to
western people in particular and
nationwide as well.
This faot is known to people who
have visited the Islands, that when
Dame Nature had finished making all
the earth, she rekindled her fires and
heaved an earthly paradise right out
of the blue waters of the Pacirio,
whioh roan has oalled Hawaii, and
she lavished all that was beautiful
and desirable represented in the Gar
den of Eden, giving the Islands many
trees, ' plants, birds and fish
that she gave no one else, and so reg
ulated the oliinate that people living
thereon may raise on the fertile soil
auy tropic or temperate growth. To
favor then the simple hearted savage
who romped and reveled in her sylvan
glades, offered human sacrifice to his
hideous wood and feathered images,
aiffl abandoned himself to all sorts of
ingeneau, she gave the easiest life
that king or priest would let live to
enjoy.
The Hawaiian ellmate is ideal, al
ways May or always June. Soil and
climate, climate and soil, what more
is needod by mankind in the making
of an earthly paradise? '
: The return, and then the book by
Mrs. Dye will be watched with earn
est Anticipation. (
