DISMISSED AGAIN
Stale Board of Health Also Drops
Troublesome van Brakle Case
Basing its action upon an ppin
ion given by the attorney general,
the State Board of Health Tuesday
nin-tit cf this week Dut an abrupt end
to the action brought by Drs. M. G.
Strickland and Guy Mount, oi ure
gon City, to have dismissed from
nffiee Dr. J. A. van Braklei The
State Board of Health refused to dis
miss Dr. van Brakle from the office
of county health officer, declaring that
ho had npvp.i heen lee-ally appointed;
and instructing its secretary, Dr Cal
vin S. White, to notuy tne ..iacKa
mas County Court that the office was
vacant, and that it would be advisable
to appoint some duly qualified person
to fill the vacancy.
Determination to take this action
was reached at a meeting of the State
Board of Health held in Fortlana
Tuesday afternoon, and was an
nounced in Portland luesday eve
nine, when attorneys representing
the complaining Oregon City phys
icians and Dr. van Brakle appeared
to argue legal points involved in the
action. The announcement of the
state board was a disappointment
to both sides in the dispute. Coun
sel for Dr. van Brakle declared that
the decision of the board was merely
a sidestepping of the issue, while C.
D. Latourette, attorney for the com
plainants, assured the state board
that their action left matters in as
bad a muddle as before. Mr. Lat
ourette contended that Dr. van
Brakle was still "de facto" county
health officer and that his legal
standing was exactly the same as it
was the day after County Judge An
derson appointed him.
It was unoflicially hinted, alter the
decision of the State Board of Health
had been handed down, that the Ore
gon City physicians would start man
damus proceedings to iorce the state
board to remove Dr. van Brakle. Oth
er attorneys, however, declare that
this cannot be done, as the law givej
the State Board of Health power to
remove an officer only for certain spe
cific actions. These attorneys . fur
ther state that in refusing to recog
nize van Brakle's appointment, the
State Board of Health has tied its
own hands.
Among' those who are opposed to
Dr. van Brakle the remark was made
Tuesdav evening after the hearing
that "Brodie's little joke had fallen
flat," this alluding directly to the tes
timony of Dr. M. G. Strickland before
the State Board of Health in Oregon
City on March' 31, when he stated
that he believed van Brakle had
"been appointed to office as the re
sult of a joke hatched up by one
preacher and two newspapermen."
In this testimony Dr. Strickland
was alluding to the fact that when,
after the recall election, members of
the county court were endeavoring to
find an appointee for the office, Fred
G. Taylor, then night editor of the
Enterprise, and E. E. Brodie con
ceived the idea of suggesting to the
county court that van Brakle be
named for the place. Mr. Taylor
made this suggestion to the county
court, Mr. Brodie approving it but be
ing restrained from adding his per
sonal endorsement owing to his pre
vious arid bitter fight against the
recall and recaU candidates. 'At an
office conference 'in the rooms of the
itmterpnse the wish was exnresseH
that some outside person could be
prevailed upon to make a formal sug
gestion of van Brakle's name to the
countv court; and shortly after this
the Rev. George Nelson Edwards
wrotf a letter to the Enterprise in
which he lauded van Brakle as being
a mnn available and fitted for the po
sition. In conceiving the idea of the
naming oi van tirakle, Taylor, as a
newspaperman, had in view solely the
"story" that the anDointment iif nn
osteopath as county health officer
wouiu create.

Mrs. Thos. Burke of Gladstone, as
sisted by Mrs. C. G. Miller, of this
city, entertained the Derthick Club
at the former's home on Friday after
noon. The afternoon's program was
devoted to the study of compositions
of the composer, McDowell, when
Mrs. G. A .Harding gave a- reading
of his life and his compositions and
was followed by musical selections
of McDowell's compositions by Miss
Ruth Dickey and Miss Edna Blake,
both of Portland. During the after
noon Miss Ruth Johns, a vocalist ol
Portland, favored the members of
the club with several selections. Fol
lowing the afternoon program re
freshments were served.

STATE FISH HATCHERIES
FURNISH EATS FOR TROUT
System Nice for Dolly Vardens and
Water Bailiffs, not for Taxpayers
Three fish wardens entered a lo
cal restaurant at half past ten one
night last week and stayed there un
til after1 midnight. During their
rest they explained the virtues of
the state hatchery system to usuch'
patrons of the place as cared to lis
ten to them, and they seemed to be
much satisfied witn it. After giving
all this information away, one of the
trio observed the time, and remark
ing that he guessed all had earned
their pay, led his twof ellow officers
off to a hotel and to slumber.
When the wardens had departed
one of the patron of the place un
burdened himself ot some observa
tions.
"Those three fellows are all right,
I guess," said he. "They seem like
decent guys, and I reckon they be
live most of what they said. And
you can't blame them for taking life
easy, considering all things. Buti
they are part of a rotten system, and
a system that is costing us plain
mutts too much in the line ot taxes.
This salmon hatchery business may
be fine as a theory, but as a matter
of fact it would be cheaper if the state
bought food for trout, instead of
raising it.
''You take the salmon these hatch
eries turn out, and they are just
about as much use to themselves as
is an incubator-hatched chicken.
When they are put in the stream
they can't rustle their own food, they
don't e-fcn know how to protect
themselves. Thev ve been protect-
ed and fed until they expect it, and
when they get out they last just
long enough to be easy pickings and
good dinner for the first dolly var
dens or rainbow trout that , come
along. Even if the hatcheries kept
the salmon till they were four or
five inches long, they d be no match
for the big trout. But I've, seen sal
mon turned out of the hatcheries that
still had part of the egg membrane
adhering to them.
"Yes, '.our hatchery system 1)3 ,a
fine thing. It is fine for the trout
and fine for the fish wardens ana
water bailiffs. But it isn't fine for
us at all."
