S
SEEN FROM THE
OPTIMIST'S TOWER
The Optimist plans to hike for
parts unknown for a few days. Hence
his remarks this week will be short
and sweet. . v
"Misfit Column of the Albany Dai
ly Democrat says: "There is a big
misfit in the item about the old man
back east who took his firsjt auto ride
this week; though 90 years of age, he
was killed the first and last time."
, , Candidly the Optimist always sup
posed that a cat was the only animal
that had more than one life. But here
was a man who was unfortunate e
nough to be killed for the first and last
time. The Ford must have gotten all
his nine lives at once. . ..."-.
Which reminds us that the follow
ing announcement appeared years ago
in an Eastern paper:
-"Lost, a cow, by an old woman,
with brass knobs on her horns."
The following was a more recent
advertisement: , ' " ; ,
Mr. Editor: I desire to thank the
friends and neighbors most heartily in
.this manner for their cooperation dur
ing the illness and death of my late
husband, who escaped from me by the
hand of death last Saturday. To my
friends and air who contributed tow
ards making the last minutes enjoy-,
able and the funeral a success, I de
sire to remember most kindly, hoping
that these few lines will find them en
joying the same blessing. I have al
so a good milch cow and a roan geld
ing horse eight years old which I
shall sell cheap., God moves in a mys
terious way his wonders to perform.
He plants his footsteps on the sea and
rides upon the storm. Also black and
white shoat cheap. .
Mrs. Samanthy Muggins.
Another clipping from the Albany
Democrat reads:
- "George Sanders and family and
Alton Coates and family have return
ed irom an outing over on tne ocean.
They got two deer."
The scribe forgot to state whether
they captured them with hook and line
or harpooned them. Those deer must
be of the same variety as the two
hatched out in the McKenzie fish
hatchery, of which mention was re
cently mf.de in this column.
Some enterprising citizens want to
know of the district attorney if it
would be breaking the law to ship in
a carload of grapes, make them up in
to unfermented juice, then allow them
to ferment. Tho scripture gives us
two or three precedents. If I remem
ber aright, an old customer collected
a lot of gold, made the mould of a
calf, melted the metal and poured, it
into the mould. To his surprise it
came out a calf. When the leader
brought him up on the carpet for lead
ing the people into idolotry, he ex
cused himself by saying that all he
did was to prepare the mould, melt
the gold and pour it in, and the meas
ly stuff actually was perverse enough
to come out a calf. " .
Again, a certain man of Galilee had
a bunch of pupils. One of them went
to the . ward bosses, who were lying
for this manrand said:
"Give me thirty bones and I'll show
you where you can find this man. . I'll
go up and kiss him when. I see him,
and of cpurse I'll not be to blame if
anyone sees me show my love for my
teacher."
.; He got tho tin and carried out the
program. Of course Judas Iscariot
.was not to blame for the arrest and
slaying of Jesus. .We are ready to
acknowledge that he was no bigger
hypocrite than the old soak who "is
willing to plan to make intoxicating
wine to satisfy the craving to which
he is a slave, but who thinks that be
cause the process of "ripening" may
take a little longer in the cellar than
it would in a "winery," that he is e
vading tho law. Ho deserves to be
fined twice once for breaking the
prohibition law and once for being a
hypocrite. .,'.-' ' ,
"Whatsoever a man thinketh in his
heart, so is he!" Why will men call
themselves good citizens and yet seek
to evade the law. Optimist thinks
that tho man who makes illicit wine in
such a way as to evade the letter of
the law is just a shade worse than the
church that erects it's edifice with
doors that swing inward instead of
outward and that puts chairs in its
aisles; and is only about ten degrees
better than the church organization
which goes into secular business, gets
rich upon the profits, but uses its sac
red, calling, to avoid paying the state
taxes. Maybe I am wrong butl
believe every church should pay
taxes on every bit of real-estate it
" owns.
Optimist is a little old fashioned,
maybe. . He thinks that" all church
property should be taxed. Why not?
The Bible is not allowed in the schools.
That would be union of church and
state. Why then is it not union of
church and state for some religious
bunch to dip their hands into the state
treasury and help themselves to
money paid in by people who would
not directly give them a cent for
their cause, even if their lives de
ponded upon it? Any church that
cannot get along without grafting on
the state Should die anyway. There
are too many churches as it is, and
the law of survival of the fittest is a
law of God, and should have full play
in Ecclesiastical matters. There is
no great church that will not do better
by leaving the state alone, and travel
ing on its own trolley.-

Divorce Court Turns Out One Finished
Product in Week ; ' i
Four couples came to the bat in
the divorce court game this week in
petitions filed in Circuit Judge Camp
bell's court. As usual, they have var
ious reasons for not liking the busi
ness of life in a double harness and
would releive themselves of the yoke
of matrimony where divorces come at
so-many-for-a-dollar. Only one di
vorce decree was signed this week by
Judge Campbell.
On Friday Claire W. Buchanan
made known to -the world that she and
her hubby, F. G. Buchanan, found life
together a horrid nightmare rather
than a pretty dream. They were mar
ried in Benton county on August 8,
1909 and have no children or property
rights to entangle in the meshes of
the law that will separate them. She
alleges in the complaint filed that Mr,
Buchanan often told her that he had
no love for her and he has treated
her in a cold manner for some time. '
. It might have been-perfectly with
in the bounds of married rights and
righteousness for Orie J. Haworth to
slap Grace M. Haworth so hard that
the blow knocked her down, and to
repeat the measure three times, or as
rapidly as she could rise from the
floor and all before members of her
family. If it was right Grace didn't
think so and she lays stress upon this
point in the complaint which she filed
on Saturday. The couple was married
at Portland on July 18, 1910, and
Orie's treatment became so unloving
that Grace had to leave home in Feb
ruary, 1911.- There are no children
nor properties and she wants to re
sume her maiden name, Grace M.
Morey. rt
' Ora B. Eckles enters the game and
in a complaint filed yesterday seeks, to
have William Eckles counted out.
This couple tied the connubial knot at
Redding, Cal., on July 14, 1898. They
lived in reasonable happiness until
July. 12, 1913, when the defendant de
serted his wife. . .
' The complaint filed late Wednesday
by Catherine E. Fischer against Wil
liam F. Fischer is noted elsewhere in
this issue. " '
Judge Campbell signed a decree
this week separating Pearl Mary Bon
ness from John Robert Bonness upon
complaint filed by the former some
weeks ago. ; The case went by default.
Squadron to Start
The flying squadron,, talking in the
interest of tax limitation, and rural
credits, ex-Governor Oswald West,
Robert E. Smith and Charles ' E.
Spence, head of the state grange, will
start a 10-day campaign in eastern
and southern Oregon September 14.
Their first stop will be at Roseburg
and the way will be through Medford,
Klamath Falls and as far east as
Pendleton. The trip will be made by
automobile. ' .
we saw a fly spit on his fists and rub
them together that he was washing
himself. Now we know better. We
watched one on the wall the other
day. First he gathered a wad of ty
phoid, or some such microbes, into his
fists, and rolled them up ready for ac
tion, then with a fiendish leer in his
off eye he made for the butter. But
we coralled him with a swatter be
fore he succeeded in planting them
there. Some think all evil is caused
by wrong thoughts. Possibly that is
true. If a good thought kills a bad
one we sincerely wish some one would
get busy on the fly proposition right
away. ,

30,000 TROUT PLANTED
Railway Company Cooperates With
State and Forest Service
Thirty thousand steelhead finger
lings, from the state rearing ponds at
Bull Run, have just been placed in five
different lakes in the Mt. Hood andMt.
Jefferson regions, on the Oregon Nat
ional forest. This difficult work was
done by the state of Oregon, the For.
est service, and the P. R. L. & P. com
pany in cooperation, and required sev
en days to complete.
An auto truck, furnished by the
P. R. L. & P. company, and driven by
O. C. Graves, covered the 250 miles
in making the trip from Portland to
the accessible points nearest the lakes.
Fifteen thousand of the fish were car
ried in the first load to the end of the
road sixty miles from Bull Run. This
point was reached at eleven o'clock at
night. This was the first time an auto
truck ever made the 82-mile trip be
tween Government camp and Clacka
mas lake." Here the fish were held
over night, constantly attended, by
four men, who kept the water thor
oughly aerated. The next morning
the cans were placed on fourteen pack
animals, in charge of Rangers Dee
Wright, Joe Graham, and Hiram A.
Wilcox, and conveyed the 24 miles to
lakes Monah and Olallie, where the
fish were placed in the water. No
stops were made on this trip. These
lakes belong to a group of 36 lakes in
the Mt. Jefferson region,, and can be
seen from the summit of Olallie moun
tain, . The truck returned to Bull Run and
secured another load of 15,000 finger
lings, which were takeji by truck as
far as Government camp, which is at
the base of Mt. Hood, where they were
transferred to the waiting forest ser
vice pack train in charge of Rangers
Wright and Wilcox. Forty-five min
utes later 12,000 of these fish were re
leased in the waters of Mirror lake,
2,500 were placed in Mud lake and 500
in Veda lake.
The waters stocked with these trout
are not reached directly or indirectly
by the railway company's lines. A de
sire to cooperate in upbuilding the
game fish resources of the state of
Oregon was its only motive in fur
nishing assistance. Besides the forest
officers and Mr. Graves already men
tioned, W. H. Patton of the power
company helped plant these fish.
This fish planting operation is one
of a series of cooperative plans which
are being carried out by the state and
forest service officials.
LEFT WITH WILD BULL
Divorce Sought by Woman Who Al
leges Brutal Experience
Left to he fate by her husband
while in a pasture with a vicious bull
and with a wish by him that the bull
would kill her, was the experience of
Catherine E. Fisher, acording to a
prayer for divorce from William F.
Fischer, which she filed in the circuit
court late yesterday.
The couple was married at Vancou
ver, Wash., on September 14, 1915,
and, the complaint alleges', the hus
band has been guilty of all manner of
cruel and inhuman, action toward the
plaintiff. He has struck her and beat
en her, called her foul "names, choked
her, threatened to kill her and induced
neighbors to asault her and do her
bodily harm.
Fischer is alleged to have asked
neighbors to beat his wife and, has
watched the proceeding without inter
ference. He helped a small boy who
had come from an aid society to live
with them, to beat the woman on one
occasion. Mrs. Fischer asks $2500
permanent alimony and $250 court
fees. She states that Fischer has
property and livestock valued at about
$14,000.
On one occasion the husband took
his wife to a pasture where he kept a
bull known to be vicious. Here he
left her to the mercy of the animal in
spite of her pleadings. . When he
found her at home later he Said he
had hoped the animal had killed her.
COOVERT ENDORSED
Multnomah Delegation Uses Steam
Roller for Candidate '
At a meeting of the Republican
County Central committees of Clacka
mas, Multnomah and Columbia coun
ties, held at Portland on Tuesday
evening, endorsement was given to
the state senatorial candidacy of E.
E. Coovert, attorney for S. Benson,
the Portland millionaire.
The central committeemen of
Clackamas county's republican party
attended the meeting which was call
ed for the purpose of designating the
party's choice of a successor to George
M. McBride, who resigned from the
senate to become a candidate for
county judge in Multnomah county.
Cjovert's supporters absolutely dom
inated the meeting, say Clackamas
county republicans, and other candi
dates stood no chance at all against
the numbers representing the metro
politan commonwealth. H. A. Lewis
of Russelville and Dr. H. M. Patton of
Portland were candidates for endorse
ment.' The former received 14 votes
while Coovert received 258. It is un
derstood that Lewis will remain in the
race in spite of this vote.
George Swafford of Oregon City
was .chairman of the joint central
committee.
Lizzie Beard Sued
Lizzie Beard is defendant to a suit
started in the circuit court on Friday
by Ralph E. Maloney in which he
asks for $500 damages from Lizzie
Beard for the alienation of the affec
tions of his wife, Mrs. Clara B. la.
loney. The defendant, Maloney al
leges, induced his wife to leave their
California home and to come to this
state to live. This took Mrs. Maloney
away from her husband and the Beard
woman, says the complaint, has so
poisoned Mrs. Maloney'g mind against
her husband that she no longer loves
him and refuses to return to his
home. Maloney also asks for costs
STRIKE ORDER ON
Trainmen Refuse to Heed President
Wilson's Requests
"No power under heaven, short of
a satisfactory settlement by the rail
roads, can prevent the railroad men
from striking Labor day," W. G. Lee,
trainmen leader, declared Wednesday
after talking with Secretary of Labor
Wilson.
President Wilson yesterday was ex
erting every effort to secure from the
railroad brotherhood leaders a with
drawal of their strike order, effective
September 4.
Believing that congress is certain to
pass legislation such as the brother
hoods are demanding, administration
officials have pointed out the trainmen
would have nothing to gain by strik
ing and everything to lose. In fact,
they say, if the men carry out their
strike orders while congress is actu
ally debating on measures favorable
to labor, there would be a tremendous
reaction in the country against the
union men that might turn the entire
trend of events.
Thus far, however, the brotherhoods
have indicated no intention of rescind
ing their strike orders.
It is the hope and belief of admins-
tration officials that, following the
president's action of Tuesday, there
will be an immediate response from
the country, urging delay of any
strike action by- the employes until
congress lias had time to pass the leg
islation before it.
The railroad strike, tying up every
piece of rolling stock in the country,
will be in effect Monday, brotherhood
men said. The order includes every
brotherhood man in the United States,
both, in passenger and in freight traf
fic. While the freight men are the only
ones making demands, the passenger
men are included in the strike order.
The reason that they also did not
make demands is that the eight hour
day now applies to passenger service,
while the pay is based on mileage, or,
on the slow trains, on a monthly guar
antee. The unions have decided formally
that President Wilson's legislative
program will not alter their determin
ation to strike; prominent brother
hood men reiterated today that only
railroadacceptance of the eight hour
day,. 10 hour pay proposal, can head
off the tie-up. '
, Asked if he had been definitely
requested to postpone the strike, A.
B Garretson, head of the trainmen,
replied: "We have not," and gave the
same answer to a question as to
whether he had postponed the strike.
TAX MONEY COMES
Deputy Harrington Urges Payers to
Bring Receipts for First Half
A now system of receipting for tax
payments in the tax department of
the sheriff's office relieves the force
therein of a great amount of work in
connection with, collction of the sec
ond half payments, and is also a great
time-saver for taxpayers. The sys
tem eliminates the necessity of writ
ing out a full receipt at the time the
second half tax is paid. ,
When the first half tax was paid
this year receipts were issued and
when the second half is paid the pay
ment must be accompanied by this re
ceipt. The second payment is receipt
ed on the same paper, and makes it
possible for Deputy George Harring
ton and his helpers to keep a much
better account of the payments. It
also aids the taxpayer because of the
fact that the collectors can accept
payment and make out a receipt in
a fraction of the time formerly re
quired, and the wants of many times
more people can be attended to in a
given time. T
Deputy Harrington urges taxpay
ers who come to his office with the sec
ond half taxes to bring the receipt
for the first half payment. By re
membering the receipt for the first
half payers will save themselves and
the deputies a great deal of time and
trouble.
Tax payments for the second half
are coming in already and, although
collections have not been large, they
are increasing each day. October 5 is
the last day on which last half taxes
can be paid without also paying inter
est and penalty for delay. But,
whether or not the tax is paid before
the time limit, the first half, receipt
must be brought to the deputy's office.
WANT PENALTY
Water Board Members Find Many
' Who Break Rules
A penalty for residents who do not
obey the rules of the board of water
commissioners is to be embodied in
an ordinance which the Oregon City
council will soon be asked to pass in
behalf of the board, according to a
statement made this week by mem
bers of the board. . ' .
Many complaints have been made to
the board and many evidences of dis
obedience to the rules have been dis
covered by members of the board this
summer. Householders allow their
water to run all night in many cases
and the faucet in the kitchen sink
pours a steady stream in many homes.
This uses a great amount of water
that should be saved in the city reser
voirs, and to correct it the board must
have a penalty provided for the infrac
tion of rules. Superintendent Mc
Causland has found nearly 100 people
to have broken the rules of the board
within the past week. The only pen
alty provided at present is that the
water may be shut off if rules are not
lived up to. The householder must
pay $1 to have water service after it
has been suspended for such a cause.
