HERE IS THE OFFICIAL
BOOSTER-DAY PROGRAM
GAYETY TO BE HERE IN BOTH
GARB AND SPIRIT FOR BIG
OREGON CITY CELEBRATION
ON SATURDAY
CITY'S GREATEST FESTIVAL
Governor Withycombe Will be in Ore
gon City on Booster Day. You
Should Join the Joyful Throng in
the Big Celebration.
The gala garb of gayety will spread
its enchanting mantle over Oregon
City next Saturday morning, to con
fine within civic bonds all the pent up
enthusiasm, the mirth and the hap
piness that has. been in the bodily
warehouses of the people of the
county for a year. Saturday is
Booster day in Oregon City.
The big Clackamas county family
will gather within the shelter of the
city early Saturday morning and from
the first toot of the festive clarion
the spirit tf joy will reign supreme,
until the last sleepy-eyed merry
maker has hied himself reluctantly to
a contented sleep. " The big doings
start at half past nine o'clock in the
morning and while industry and all
other life but that of purest enjoy
ment rests on its haunches the "big
time" will continue, officially, until
the conclusion of a grand summer
time, open-air ball on lower Seventh
street, sometime in the evening. "
There is not to be an idle minute;
visitors and townspeople must arrange
to take their .meals between breaths
of pleasure; they must be prepared to
enjoy good music, pretty pageants
and the excitement of skillful con
tests of several styles and varieties.
Clackamas county folks must be hosts
to a large number from outside the
city on Booster day; the Royal Rosar
ians and the band that has made that
organization famous, all in the regal
attire of the order, constitute' only a
few of the visitors whom the city and
the county must enertain.
n . 1 i 1 A. J. -
rut your Desi sme ioremosi; put a
rose on your shirtwaist or tip your
hat a little more over your ear, to
indicate your abandonment to the w.ill
of pure pleasure, and come to town
Saturday. The latch' string on the
; door of enjoyment will hang even far
ther out than it usually does and once
inside the door you will find here a
selection of pleasant pastimes really
bigger and better than the most abun
dant promises of the best side-show
barker you ever heard at a circus,
when you were a little kid and had
only half enough to get into the
tent because . your . mother wouldn't
let you water the elephants before
hand, or, if you be of the other gen
der, becau.se your dad had gone to
work without anticipating your wants
and hadn't left enough change about
the house.
That reminds us that the whole
spirit of this Saturday, which will be
remembered in history as Oregon
City's 1916 Booster day, is a reversion
of the form of ye olden times. " Re
member how mother used to rifle dad's
pockets to find the price of admission
for you? That wont be necessary
this time, first because dad and mother
and all the kids are coming to Oregon
City, and second, because there won't
be anything to spend much money for
after you get here. However, bring
along the price of peanuts to feed the
Booster king and bring along your
best pair of specks that you may the
better admire the beauties that will
be here for you. Oregon City promis
es you the day of a lifetime bigger
than all the carnivals and circuses
you ever saw.
The throne of the royal couple,
the king and queen of Booster day,
will be located on the court house
, lawn, and at!" nine-thirty in the morn
ing Queen Rose, Miss Rose Upte
grove, with her consort, who is still
to be elected, will arrive at the Boost
er throne and the coronation cere
monies will be held. Immediately
thereafter Mayor Hackett of Oregon
City will deliver a brief address of
welcome to the gathered pleasure
seekers, giving to them the freedom
of the city, and commending to them
the fullest enjoyment of Booster day.
Then will come a pleasant little
siirnrise. Governor Withycombe will
address the happyland multitude from
the court house square. The chief
executive has accepted Oregon City's
invitation to be among us on that day
and his address, although it will be
brief, will be the most interesting
feature of the program of the day, as
far as that program is confined to
formalities. The governor has prom
ised that he will remain during the
day and will participate whole-heartedly
in the gayety and the frolics
that are planned.
The first big parade of the day will
form- and start from Fifth and Main
street at ten o'clock. This will be
tb" stock parade and will include
prize livestock from every corner of
the county. Entries to date warrant
the assertion that it will be the great
est exhibition of livestock ever held
in Clackamas county. The prized
offered to entrants induce the partici
pation of those who would not other
wise display their animals. The
stock will be paraded to Twelfth and
Main and will return to Fifth street.
At half past ten in the morning
tne .program begins to double up a bit
to allow time for the many events
during the day. At that hour Prof.
R. E. Reynolds of the 0. A. C. will
deliver a most' interesting' lecture at
the .stock show tent and for those
who would combine education and
business with the pleasure of the 'day
this is one of the excellent opportun
ities. At the same hour the Oregon
City .school children will present a
beautiful drill, with unique and
charming maneuvers, at the library
prk, Seventh and J. Adams streets.
The drill will be one of the pretty
features of the day and will be under
the direction of F. J. Tooze, city
school superintendent.
At eleven a. m., Prof. Reynolds
will judge the stock that is entered
at the show and will announce the
prize awards for the several classifi
cations. In the aggregate there are
almost $300 posted in livestock prizes.
Under the direction of J. County
School Superintendent J. E. Calavan
a Maypole dance contest will be held
at the library park at a little after
eleven o'clock. Extensive prepara
tions have been made for this event
and "it is said to be one of the most
delightful exhibitions of the skill of
the little tots that could be imagined.
Those who love the gay little young
ters will be well repaid for having
witnessed the Maypole dance contest.
After luncheon, at 1:16, to be spe
cific, the king and queen will return
to the royal throne at the court
house. The king will issue an imperial
edict, ordering the capture of salmon
for the queen and therewith he will
set out to assist the fishermen in' their
quest. The salmon will be caught at
the foot of "Twelfth street and from
the water at the same time will come
the. Demon Pessimism. Unexpected
tragedy! The salmon will be present
ed to her royal highness and the
Demon will be hailed before the regal
lady for her judgment. The queen,
after accepting the royal Chinook,
mercilessly orders the Demon parad
ed through the thoroughfare as an
example to knockers. The dejected
Demon is to be paraded to his de
struction. At two o'clock the Gjand Parade
of the day will be held. Col. J. T.
Apperson, grand marshal, will lead
the long line of floats and automo
biles representing organizations of all
kinds, individuals and communities
going south on Main street from the
place of formation at Fourteenth to
Third street and back to the court
house. While the bands play that
lovable old" melody "Dixie," Demon
Pessimism will suffer his. wicked life
to be shot out of him and to further
atone for the sins of knocking and
kicking the last spark of his evil life
will be extinguished by electrocution.
With that done Queen Rose will order
the salmon presented to Governor
Withycombe as a gift from her people,
all the people of Clackamas county.
All formalities are then to be sus
pended by command of his honor, the
king, and the guests and hosts will be
ordered to join in the festivities.
Bands will play and crowds will sing.
,The biggest part of the day's pro
gram will then be submitted. There
will be free base ball games, roller
skating races on Main street, foot
races, all for cash prizes, girl's races,
and the huge comedy entitled: "Races
by Mayors, Councilmen, School Di
rectors, Fat Men." This side-splitting
affair will be staged on Main street
between Fifth and Sixth streets be
tween 4- and 5 o'clock in the afternoon
One of the prettiest features and
one that will attract large audiences
is the rose show. Entries of wonder.
ful blooms from every corner of the
county are welcome, and many have
already been received. Attractive
prizes will be awarded to rose exhibit
ors and the display is certain to be the
best that has ever been made. Every
thing else about the day is to be the
"best ever," so why not the rose
show? As a matter of fact, more
flowers, greater variety and more
perfection in floral entries will char
acterize this interesting feature of
Booster day. Do not fail to take in
the rose show.
There we've "gone and .done it."
We had no intention of telling you so
much of the good things in store for
you on Saturday and we have laid
bare nearly a fifth of the fun that
you need expect when you come to
Oregon City. We refuse to give all
the secrets publication And 'will-
append hereto the complete formal
program that you may judge of its
merits for yourself.

PAVING STARTED ON
PARKPLACE ROADWAY
DELAY OF MATERIAL IS OB
STACLE TO WORKMEN AT
NEW PAVING PLANT
Under the direction of Roadmaster
T. A. Roots and Harry Worswick, su
perintendent of paving, the improve
ment of the Parkplace road was
started early this week. ' This piece
of road is to have a history in this
county for it is the first to be hard
surfaced outside of an incorporated
town within the county and it is- the
first hatd surface laid without con
tract. With its own paving plant the
county is doing the work itself, much
in the nature of an experiment, but
with a hope that the venture will be
so successful and economical that hard
surface can be applied to all the main
traveled roads of the county.
The operation of the county paving
plant and work on the Parkplace
road were delayed because the asphalt
that had been ordered was ' not de
livered on time and the first shipment
of material arrived at the plant on
Sunday. Further delay was caused on
Monday when the managers of the
plant refused to accept a trainload of
gravel that had been delivered, be
cause of the fact that the shipment
contained too little gravel and too
much dirt. . -
The surface on the Parkplace road
will be sixteen feet wide and every
portion of the road will be done di
rectly by the county. County road
implements and labor paid by the
county will lay the surface.
BIG EXCURSION FOR
FARMERS IS PLANNED
RAILROAD COMPANY- REDUCES
RATES FOR TRIP TO PORT
LAND YARDS !
A big time, in which the farmers
along the lines of the Willamette
Valley Southern railroad are to take
part, is being planned by ' Judge
Grant B. Dimick, president of the
company, and the officials of the
Portland Union Stockyards company,
who were represented at a meeting
with Judge. Dimick here on Tuesday.
The farmers, especially those inter
ested in livestock, will be guests of
the, stockyards management on Mon
day, June 12, and an elaborate pro
gram of business and pleasure is to
be prepared for them.
Special rates, probably one-fare-
and-a-third, will be granted to farm
ers along the lines of the Willamette
Valley Southern for that day. Arriv
ing in Portland the, farmers will be
met by a committee from North
Portland and taken to the big stock
yards. There they will' be instruct
ed in the latest and most approved
methods of handling livestock, both
on the farm, in shipment, and in the
yards. They wilL be instructed in the
present day system of grading and
judging livestock. At the noon hour
big banquet will be held for the
guests at the fine hotel in North
Portland and in the afternoon the
brief instruction course will be con
tinued. Those who attend will be
shown through every department of
tho stockyards and instructed in
every phase of the work of handling
cattle in the big plant.
The trip represents an enormous
cost on the part of the company and
it is naturally hopeful that the farm
ers of Clackamas county will become
interested in the work at hand and
will attend the meeting in" as large
numbers as possible. The day is to
be a profitable one in many ways and
at the dinner several prominent men
in the livestock world will speak to
the visitors. The transportation com-
pany will announce its rates at a
later rate.

KAFFIR BOYS ARE WONDERFUL
MUSICIANS. ASSEMBLY TO
HAVE MOVING PICTURES
GLADSTONE FINE GAMP SITE
New York City's Great Marine Band
" Will be the Feature of 1916
County Chautauqua
Chautauqua usually boasts of a
"headline" act. And around this big
headline act is usually built the big
program of attractions which is given
at Gladstone park every year.
IThe Willamette Valley Chautauqua
assembly for 1916, however, boasts
of . three "headline' ' acts on the
amusement side of the session. The
three star attractions for the com
ing assembly, which will be held July
-19th inclusive, are the most ex
pensive, the most original and at the
same time the most unique attractions
ever brought west.
Topping the bill of course, is the
New York City Marine band. . Next in
importance is the appearance of the
Kaffir Boys' choir, and then comes the
famous motion pictures of the Mawson
Antarctic expedition. These are the
headliners of the entertainment fea
ture of chautauqua life, while the
forum boasts of such platform stars
as Lou Beauchamp, Sylvester A. Long,
Hon. Victor Murdock, Dr. Ernest J.
Sias-and others. And yet all of these
stellar men and attractions comprise
but about one-fourth of the big pro
gram which makes up .the thirteen
day schedule.
Getting back to the triple-headline
acts New York s best the most
sought of band in America is to visit
Gladstone park this year. The New
York City Marine band, made up of
genuine artistic timber. It is the
music of such a band, when patriotic
airs are played, that cause tears to
fall unashamed down the grizzled
cheeks of veterans, and make hearts
of young and old throb with patriotic
fervor., The New York City Marine
b&nd will come to-;.,iGIadstone park,
ushed with the successes, of years
of playing .in the great metropolis,
where each summer thousands upon
thousand flock to hear its wonder
ful melodies. Its program, besides
patriotic airs, marine airs and march
es, will include generous selections
from the best of operas and popular
music.
If you can visualize one of the
most imaginative, - romantic and
pell-weaving chapters from Treasure
Island or Robinson Crusoe, animated
in actual life before you, pulsating
with all the weird mystery and en
chantment of an unknown region, you
have a suggestion of Balmer's won
derful singing Kaffir boys, the most
unique, and by all odds the biggest,
single chautauqua feature in the
world today. They have appeared
before over two million people, have
charmed all who ever heard their
weird melodies and have received tre
mendous ovations everywhere. The
Kaffirs are a study. They project a
living page from the tribal life of
the African jungles; their melodious
chants and weird war dances are done
with such genuine enthusiasm that
they never fail to create a responding
dearee of excitement among their
hearers.
Chautauqua has heard the call of
the "movies" this year and the board
of directors has decided that none but
the best shall be shared with the big
chautauqua family. They have se
cured the famous motion pictures of
the great Mawson Antarctic expe
dition, which attracted the attention
of the world in one of its great trag
edies a few years ago. Mawson came
back from the land of snow and ice
with a story more gripping than the
tales of Arabian Nights and more
profusely illustrated than any travel
ogue lecture. The pictures are won
derful. This has been the verdict of
all who have seen them, and the
chautauqua audience will be as en
thusiastic as others who have witness
ed the marvelous views of Antarctic
life and conditions. These pictures
comprise 20,000 feet of film. They
were secured 10,000 miles from Amer
ica and 2000 miles from the nearest
human habitation. For real movie
thrillers the Mawson pictures are hard
to beat. Dr. W. A. Hunsberger is the
lecturer who talks of the expedition
and its work.
But these three famous attractions,
as said before, are only a little cor
ner of this year's chautauqua. Keep
your eye out for the chautauqua
booklets which will appear within the
next ten days, and don't forget to
prepare to camp at the 1916 chau
tauqua, in the most ideal camp-site
in Oregon Gladstone park.

HUTCHINSON IS KING
OF THE BOOSTER DAY
CANDIDATE OFHAWLEY MILLS
GETS ROYAL HONOR.
CON-
TEST IS INTERESTING
With several very large checks and
a canvas sack full of coin casting
their golden reflections upon the shod
dy tin of the ballot boxes, the last
votes in the election of a king for the
Booster day celebration were count
ed at the Commercial club last even
ing. .
. Earl Hutchinson of the - Hawley
Pulp and paper company was elected
by the largest majority ever known
in the Clackamas county kingdom, and
will be a real king by virtue of the
4,121,500 votes cast in his favor. Mr.
Hutchinson had a corps of live work
ers behind his candidacy and the as
pirations of his fellow workmen at
the mills were realized through the
contribution, from various sources, of
votes representing the expenditure of
$412.50. , Some votes were given to
each candidate so that the total ex
penditure is not quite as large as the
vote indicates.
When the boxes that had collected
the votes on the last day of the cam
paign were opened last night there
were two checks calling for votes, for
Hutchinson which were unusually
large. One was for $329.50 and the
other for $15. A canvas bank sack,
packed tight wtih gold and silver
coins, contained $190.50, in payment
for 1,905,000 votes for Harold Swaf
ford of the Crown-Willamette mills.
Other candidates were hardly in the
contest when the campaign commit
tee commenced the tabulation of the
votes, although the standing of
Ernest T. , Mass, Jr., of the
Oregon City Woolen mills, increased
from 410,000 to 5T9.500.
The king contest .. netted the
Booster day committee $625.54, a
great deal more than had been antici
pated, thanks to the loyalty of those
behind the several candidates, and
the sum will help very materially in
the realization of the promise of the
Booster day committee to make the
day bigger and better in every way
than it has ever been. Thee ampaign
started on May 16.
Earl Hutchinson will be the con
sort of Queen Rose throughout the
Booster day program on Saturday
and will participate in all the func
tions of the day. . He will have the
honor of accompanying the queen in
the parades and all other affairs in
cident to the big festivities of the
day.
The final standing of the seven
candidates in the king contest are as
follows:
Earl Hutchinson.......... 4,121,500
Harold Swafford 2,577,500
E. T. Mass, Jr., 579,500
Charles T. Parker 555,000
John C. Busch 460,000
J. D. Olson 412,900
H. L. Price 410,000

SHERIFF RACE FEATURE
OF PRIMARY ELECTION
ON DEMOCRATIC BALLOTS MASS'
LEAD OVERCOME BY VIETOR
AT LAST MINUTE. COUNTERS
DESTROY MASS' VOTES.
PARTY POLLS A SMALL VOTE
Jack, Latourette and Brownell Get
.Democratic Legislative - Nomina
tions. President Wilson Strong
ly Endorsed by Party Here.
About the remarkably close race
for nomination as sheriff which waged
between E. T. Mass, whose name was
written in by the voters, and Maxwell
Vietor, regularly filed candidate, chief
interest in the primary election in
Clackamas county centered. Until
the last few precincts in the county
were heard from Mass maintained a
safe lead, but the outlying districts
brought this down until it was finally
overcome by Vietor, who won the
nomination with the narrow margin
of 10 yotes. The first half of the pre
cincts in the county that reported
gave Mass a lead of 76 votes, a mar
gin unheard of in Clackamas cdunty
politics for a candidate whose name
was written in. 1
Election boards in several sections
admit destroying votes for Mass be
cause the cross was not placed in
front of his name. Mr. Mass will
bring up no contest because of this,
but his friends may demand the
proper interpretation of the law,
which says, in effect, that judges need
only be certain of the voter's inten
tion in such cases to make the ballot
valid. The final count in the shrieval
ity list stands, unofficially, 457 to
447. Mass carried every precinct in
Oregon City by a wide margin,
Throughout Friday night and Sat
urday the returns wabbled back and
forth toward Mass and Vietor. The
former retaining the lead at all times,
however. When precincts distant
from the county seat brought in their
returns Mass lead started down until
with only six precincts to hear from
he had a margin of only one vote in
his favor.
An interesting feature of the
primary election in connection with
the republican ticket was the heavy
vote poled by Christian Schuebel,
legislative candidate. Mr. Schuebel
made no campaign for the nomination,
yet ran fourth in the list from which
three" were to be elected. The final
count gives H. A. Dedman, 3405;
George C. Brownell, 2902; Harold A.'
Stephens, 2583; Christian Schuebel,
2305 and E. D. Olds, 1597.
With the exception of the demo
cratic shrievality nomination the early
count on Friday night indicated the
final results and those who started
in the lead maintained their standing
throughout the count. For president
of the United States the democrats
voted a fine tribute to President
Woodrow Wilson and his endorsement
was almost unanimous. Several
democrats and a few republicans
wrote in the name of Henry Ford for
president and Borne for vice-president.
The republicans poled a majority for
Charles E. Hughes for president, with
Senator Cummins of Iowa running a
distant second. Vice-president Mar
shall received a majority vote for
vice-president on the democratic tick
et. Olcott carried the county over
Moores for secretary of state with a
majority of 284 votes.
The republican voters of the county
strongly endorsed Sheriff Wilson in
his contest for nomination .with Jack
Albright. The former carried the
county with a majority of nearly 2000
votes.
Because of the fact that the shriev.
ality race and that between Governor
Major and Vice-President Marshall
were the only contests on the demo
cratic ticket the party vote ws'unus
ually small, as evidenced by the vote
for President Wilson, totalling 1,111
Democratic voters wrote in a large
number of names for several nomina
tions and in so doing endorsed George
C. Brownell for the legislature and
Miss Iva Harrington for county clerk.
Henry W. Koehler of Oswego was
writtenun by a few for the legislature
and bv several for county clerk. J.
E. Jack, present county assessor, re
ceived the legislative nomination, as
did E. C. Latourette. This makes
Mr. Jack, Mr. Latourette and Mr,
Brownell the three democratic candi
dates at the general election. The
ereneral support of the party was
given to Gilbert L. Hedges for re
election as district attorney, to C. W
Risley for county commissioner and
to G. F. Johnson for assessor. Until
the democratic official count is made
by the county clerk it will be impos
sible to determine candidates for other
offices, as many names were written
in and not counted by the unofficial
compilers.
Unofficial returns from the demo
cratic ballots are as follows

BE MAID OF HONOR
QUEEN CONTEST CLOSES WITH
LOCAL CANDIDATE IN
FOURTH PLACE
With the returns from the primary
election on last Friday came other
returns that were almost as interest
ing to Clackamas county, and the
latter announced the election of Miss ,
Muriel Saling of Pendleton as queen
of the Rose Festival, with Miss Rose
Uptegrove of Oregon City as one of
the maids of honor.
Miss Uptegrove was the candidate
in one of the most lively community
campaigns that has ever been conduct
ed in this county and, although the
odds were against her election, the
campaign ' committee, by diligent
work, and the county, by loyal sup-
port, succeeded in winding up the
campaign in a snower or oanots that
gave the local young lady fourth
place in the long lists of aspirants
to Rose Festival royalty honors. Miss
Uptegrove's campaign has been
capably managed throughout and her
position as the third maid of honor is
credit to the county and those
therein who supported the work of
the campaign committee.
The contest ended on Friday night,
after a large number of ballots on
hand in the office of the local com
mittee had been sent in at the last
minute. Miss Uptegrove would have
carried the election eusily had not
the other representatives in the con
test been working the same scheme
of holding ballots back until the last
day. Miss Uptegrove ended fourth in
tho list with 2,115,435 votes to her
credit.
On every hand the work of the
local Live Wire committee was suc
cessful. Dances, ball games, hold-up
stunts, auctions and several other
schemes were resorted to to bring
money into the treasury. The
county as a whole united loyally in
an effort to elect Miss Uptegrove and
much money was turned m from out
side the county.
The Clackamas county candidate
will participate in all the events and
ceremonies incident to the Rose Fes
tival as a maid of honor of Queen
Muriel. By virtue of having elected
the queen Pendleton will have the
right to choose the king of the fes
tival and his name will be announced
later.
The final count in the campaign
was as follows:
Muriel Saling, Pendleton, 7,483,026;
Lillian Hendickson, 3,248,211; Eleanor
Jackson, McMinnville, 2,352,565; Rose
Uptegrove, 2,115,435; Mrs. Maude
