Candidates Speak The Clackamas county republican salute was fired at a well attended meeting at Molalla on Saturday night when Congressman W. C. Hawley de. livered an address to an audience of 200 voters. The meeting was given over to the Hawley speech, music and talks by republican county candidates. The speakers, in addition to the congresman, were George C. Brow nell, candidate for state representa tive; William M. Stone, candidate for district attorney; Dudley B. Boyles, deputy county recorder and candidate for the office; W. W. Everhart, for as sessor; M. E. Dunn, for treasurer, and Coroner W. E. Hempstead, of Oregon City, for re-election. E. E. Brodie, of Oregon City, was chairman of the meeting. Mr. Hawley dealt principally with the democratic free trade policy and with the Mexican situation in the management of which, he declared, the democratic party had made a most miserable failure. This was the first in a series of campaign meetings to precede the November election. CLUB SELLS TAGS Keeping up a reputation establish ed years ago as a "blue ribbon" coun ty of Oregon, Polk carried off high honors at the state fair in Salem last week. The award was made to the county showing the greatest number of points on a general county display. For the third consecutive week the pen of ten hens entered by the Ore gon Agricultural college in the Etorrs, Conn., egg laying contest led all competitors and also climbed to fifth place for the entire 45 weeks of the competition, according to advices received at Corvallis. The Corvallis hens made a score of 52 eggs while the nearest rival made 49. The seventh annual Junction City Pumpkin show was held last week, The exhibits were more extensive than those entered in the show last year. The pavilion was gaily decorated in green and yellow, the official colors of the association, and all the available space was taken by the various ex hibits.

Reynolds Tobacco Co. One of the most enthusiastic road meetings ever held in Oregon, and one which called forth much intelli gent discussion, was that at the Yam hill county court house last week. Representatives were present from points 50 miles distant in either di rection. The purpose of the meeting was to impress upon the state high way commission that people of the 6GALLEY 7 west side are entitled to equal recog nition with the east side in the appro, priation of funds for a through pub lic highway. W. C. T. U. CONVENTION Delegates From all Parts of County Attend Sessions The annual Clackamas county con vention of the Women's Christian Temperance Union was held at the Methodist church in this city on last Friday. The attendance included members of all the unions in the coun ty and the programs of the day were instructive and entertaining. The forenoon meetingwas devoted to business and the election of officers. At the noon hour the ladies of the Or egon City union served lunch in the church and the convention programs were continued in the afternoon and evening. Officers for the ensffing year are: Mrs.E. B. Andrews, Oregon City, president; Mrs. Mabel Brobst, Wil sonville, vice-president; Mrs. George Eberly, Clarkes, corresponding sec retary; Mrs. Lulu Horning, Hood View, recording secretary, and Mrs. R.

Mrs. Tuley, of Molalla, read a paper entitled "Beer Not a Benefit." Friday night the silver medal de. clamatory contest was held. Al though only three young women par ticipated, this event was successful and the medal was awarded to Miss Eunice King of Oregon City. Football Practice Calls Out Veterans and Recruits The net revenue to the new Oregon City Athletic club from the tag sale here on Saturday was almost $65, and the members of the organization feel that their efforts to provide a full cal. endar or sports for Oregon City are appreciated. A bevy of popular young women, including high school girls, sold tags for the club. The first prize was awarded to Miss Ma bel Albright, with Miss Veda Lynch and Miss Genevieve Jones taking second and third awards, respective ly, for selling the greatest number of tags. The season's first football practice was held last Sunday and fifteen men appeared in moleskins some of them more skin than mole, a defect that will be corrected. Practice is being held three nights a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday and Harry Smith, president of the club, who has entered whole heartedly into the man agement of its affairs, is certain that the senior team representing the club will be a winner. A junior team will be developed as material presents it self and all are invited to don the togs of the gridiron battlefield. REX LAMPMAN SUED Oak Grove Reporter.Candidate Charg ed With Cruelty by Wife Mrs. Verne H. Lampman filed suit on Saturday afternoon against Rex H. Lampman, former Portland news paper man and democratic candidate for joint representative from Multno mah and Clackamas counties. The general charge is cruelty, and Mrs. Lampman charges that her husband told her to go home to her folks and stay there and said to her that she was "no aid or stimulus in his work; that she didn't know anything and that she was a fool," by reason of which her life became burdensome and unbearable.' There are no prop erty rights. The Lampmans have lived at Oak Grove for some years. They were married at Rice Lake, Wis., Septem ber 4, 1909, and have three minor children, Jean, 6 years; Herbert How. ard, 4 years, and Laurie, 3 months. Mrs. Lampman asks the custody of the children and $25 a month alimony for their support. Mr. Lampman was formerly the publisher of a lit tle paper at Gold Hill, Ore.,but of recent years has been employed on Portland papers.
