OREGON CITY COURIER, OREGON CITY, OREGON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1916
Why don't you get that
Royal Tailored Look?
You young fellows
who are trying to
get ahead in the
world why don't you consider
this matter of good clothes in a
cold dollar and cents way ?
You want good clothes not
alone for what they show in the
mirror but for what they show
in your pay envelope.
m m
Your business battle is plenty
hard enough as it is. Why
make it any harder ?
In these critical times, it takes
a mighty clever man to play the
part of Success while dressed in
the costume of Failure.
And the clever man is too
smart to work against needless
drawbacks.
The Royal Tailors are costum
ers to the Successful Man.
There is something in the very
build of a Royal Tailor suit that
suggests Success in its perfec
tion of detail, its infinite pre
cision and fidelity of fit; in its
richness and sturdiness of con
struction. For Royal Tailor clothes are
made-to-measure clothes of the
very highest calibre.
m im G3 -
We have no quarrel to pick
with the many excellent makers
of ready made clothes.
But, if you want perfection in
your clothes, you've got to have
your clothes made to fit you.
We want to take your measure
for a Royal Tailored Suit. May
we ? The prices are your prices;
$20, $25 and $30.

BALLOT MEASURES ARE BIG
PROBLEM
(Continued from Page 1)
For Pendleton Normal School and
Ratifying Location of Certain State
Institutions. The first part of this
amendment provides for the icreation
of a normal school at Pendleton. Its
need is not denied. The stute is all
too poorly equipped to produce teach
ers for its own school children. But
it appears that Pendleton has as
sumed the role of the plutocrat. Tho
state has a heavy investment in nor
mal school property at Weston, in the
same county as Pendleton, which has
been out of use for years. It would
seem foolish to create a new property
at Pendleton when the school at Wes
on would fill every need of the eastern
part of the state. The need is there,
no doubt, and sentiment is divided. It
would seem far more sensible on the
part of voters looking to their own
pocket books to utilize the investment
at Weston, in place of creating a new;
investment at Pendleton.
The second part of this bill is a
joker. Pendleton has sought to play
upon the fears of the voters by mak
ing them believe that, if Pendleton
does not get tho normal school it de
mands, other state schools, such as
the agricultural college and the stat
university, will be declared out of
place because they are not located at
the state capital and that trouble may
arise. As to the Pendleton normal
school its fata seems to hang in a
balance which seems to favor voting
309 No.
Anti-Compulsory Vaccination bill.
Compulsory vaccination is unfair. It
.is in opposition to God-given liberty.
Authorities of equal worth and think
ers generally are divided upon the
subject. Some say that vaccination
is absolutely dangerous. Education
is as essential as inoculation for the
prevention of disease when such
chances with danger are taken as un
der compulsory .vaccination laws. We
honestly suggest and recommend thai
voters ballot 310 Yes.
Bill Repealing and Abolishing tho
Sunday Closing Law. The Sunday
closing law is an antiquated chapter
in the Oregon statutes. It is dis-
criminatory and, therefore, unfair.
Take local conditions: The fair minded
person can instantly picture the dis
crimination that is worked, by the
present Sunday closing law. It is
contrary to the rules of religious lib
erty which we were supposedly per
mitted to practise under the consti
tution of the United States. To elim
inate religious strife and to be abso
lutely fair with all the Sunday clos
ing law should be repealed. The
Courier is a strong advocate of the
plan of one-day-rest-in-seven, but
when it comes to naming that day as
Sunday and then not playing square
with all concerned, we are against it.
The Sunday law and the one-day-rest
idea are not the same. Religious and
personal liberties have too often been
tampered with and the evil could be
largely corrected in Oregon by the re
peal of ttye present Sunday closing
law. Vote 812 Yes.
Permitting the Manufacture and
Regulated Sale of Four Per Cent
Malt Liquors. This amendment and
the one which will follow it on the
ballot, Prohibition amendment For
bidding Importation of Intoxicating
Liquor for Beverage Purposes, should
be voted down. The first is crammed
to the guards with jokers, and would
bring back, in all its awfulness, the
saloon. It would permit the sale of
liquor to little boys and girls to any
one and at any place. It is the dis
honest scheme of Paul Wessinger
and his pack of brewers to make of
Oregon the tippling house of the Pa
cific coast. It is intolerable and ab
solutely criminal. For the love you
bear your homes and families this bill
should he killed. Vote 314 No.
Tho second amendment is unfair.
It attempts to throw an additional
burden upon the state, which has
just adopted prohibition and has not
given it a fair trial. Absolute prohi
bition is untimely this year. There is
no demand for it and the sentiment of
the state seems to ask that the pres
ent law be given a fair and proper tri
al before further experiment is in
dulged in. Vote 317 No.
Rural Credits Amendment. This
bill provides that the state may bor
row money to loan to a limited class
of its citizens. It favors one group
and confines that group to a very
limited activity with the money they
can get through the fund created by
his amendment. It is a matter, how
ever, to be decided by the individual.
The voters generally seem to be about
evenly divided. Vote Yes or No.
State-Wide Tax and Indebtedness
Limitation amendment. If private
business was limited to a six per cent
increase in expenditure each year
there would be very little private de
velopment. Business men hire com
petent managers for their affairs and
thereby bring about the greatest de
velopment with the least increase in
expenditure. Private business ideas
should be in vogue in the state gov
ernment. Elect the right men to of
fice and tax limitations would be un
necessary. This bill seems impossible
because we can never foresee the
emergency expenditures of the next
year, yet there are many things in fa
vor of it. Taxes are not increased by
public officials as much as they are
by the voters themselves. If voters
would censor their expenditures and
disregard emergencies they will favor
this bill. Sentiment is so divided that
there can be no outright recommenda
tion. Tho Single Item Veto amendment.
This is undoubtedly a progressive
proposal and should receive the
hearty support of every voter. It
permits the governor to strike out a
single objectionable feature of any
bill without throwing out the entiro
bill, which may otherwise be worthy.
It docs not give tho governor any
greater veto power than he has at
present. Vote 301 Yes.
Ship Tax Exemption Amendment.
Throughout the state there is an opin
ion that the passage of this amend
ment would tend to increase the inter
est of shippers in the Oregon coast
and river ports and would build up
the shipping industry to a great ex
tent. If that is true the little revenue
lost from taxing ships will be more
than made up by the increased rev
enue from the business brought to
our ports. The amendment would
free all ships and vessels of 50 tons
or more capacity, engaged in either
freight or passenger traffic, whose
home ports are in the state of Oregon,
from taxation until January 1, 1935.
The amendment would encourage reg
istration of such vessels in Oregon,
which otherwise would register in oth
er states. Vote 303 Yes.
HONESTY IS BIG PLANK FOil
JACK
(Continued from Page 1)
jority of the neople of the county. .
He will leave the assessorship this
year, regardless of the verdict-at the
polls since he was not a candidate fur
re-election. His friends are not the
least hesitant about recommending
J. E. Jack as the candidate best fitted
to represent Clackamas county in the
state legislature and they refer to his
record as a man and citizen as pri
mary qualifications that make his de
serving of election.
AN OPEN LETTER

October 12,- 1910.
In view of the recent transfer of
the controlling interest in the Bank
of Oregon City, we desire at this time
to acquaint our patrons with the re
organization. In order to afford greater facili

Oregon; Geo. H. Tracy, Jr., former
Asst. Superintendent of Banks of Or
egon.
The above named directors repre
sent the controlling interest of the
Bank, and all are residents of Oregon
City, or its immediate Vicinity.
It being the desire of Mr. Charles
H. Caufield to retire from active ser
vice, on the first of the year Mr.

and will become actively associated

manently as Chairman of the Board
of Directors.
With the exception of Mr. Tracy
as Vice-President, and the addition of
Chester D. Phillips as Cashier to suc
ceed Mr. E. G. Caufield, who has re

office force. Mr. Stevens will remain
as Asst. Cashier, and friends and cus
tomers will find the same obliging
tellers at their respective wickets.
We desire to express our sincere
appreciation of your valued business
and loyal support to this institution
and wish to assure you that the sound
and conservative policy that has been
employed in the conduct of the bank's
affairs during a long and successful
career, will be continued. ""
Yours very respectfully,
THE BANK OF OREGON CITY.

PIGS IN THE PARLOR
Ben Staats Drives Automobile Into
Hannaford Parlor This Morning
Unable to hold his Ford machine
with the brakes, Benjamin Staats,
son of J. O. Staats, well-known
Clarkes merchant, this morning drove
the machine into the flag house at
the foot of Singer hill in Oregon City,
and landed four valuable O. I. C.
pigs in the bunlding without damag
ing more than the radiator of his
automobile.
As the'young man reached the
foot of the hill, bringing four hogs
to the city, the flagman, George Han
naford, appeared to warn him of the
close approaching traij. It was too
late for the youth to cross the tracks
in front of the cars and the brakes
on his car refused to hold the ma
chine. His only alternative was to
turn off the road and in doing so he
drove into the little house, which is
also the home of the flagman. The
pigs settled down contentedly after
the accident, which damaged the
house considerably. The radiator of
the machine was dented and twisted,
but otherwise no damage was done to
the invaders.
