DR. H. A. DEDMAN
Dr. H. A. Dedman, Clackamas
county representative in the recent
session of the legislature at Salem,
has qualified as a very close-mouthed
individual. Sometime during the
session at Salem the good medico
slipped quietly away from his home at
Canby and was married at Seattle to
Miss Blanche Jobe of Philadelphia,
It is safe to say that not even the
closest friend of the doctor knew of
the wedding until last week, when
the happy couple returned to Canby
to establish their home.
The wedding took place on Janu
ary 27 and it was February 24 before
the story was told by the happiness
that Dr. and Mrs. Dedman displayed,
Dr. Dedman returned to his desk at
Salem following the wedding just as
quietly as he had left it and there
was not a suspicion. Sunday he and
his wife returned to Canby. Dr. Ded
man is president of the First Nation
al bank and the Canby State bank
and has a large medical practice as
well.

case of the P. R. L. & P. Co. to go
by default. Several prominent bus
iness men and taxpayers of Oregon
City objected and insisted that I con
tinue the case, and urged that I sub
mit a letter to the city council, which
I did, and it is now on file in the office
of the city recorder. Part of the let
ter being as follows:
"My proposition to the city coun
cil is as follows:
"1st. The city council to pay me
for the services rendered in the de
fense of the action of David Oliver
vs. Oregon City, the sum of $150, and
as for the other services performed
during the month of January, I will
donate them to the city, and the coun
cil to relieve me from all further du
ties or liablity in connection with the
case of the Portland, Railway, Light
& Power Co. vs. Oregon City.
2nd. If the council should desire j
that I continue the defense of the city
in the case of the Portland, Railway,
Light & Power Co., vs. Oregon City
that the city council pay me the $150
above mentioned, and in addition pro
vide for the payment of $250 as soon
as the briefs are filed, and the fur
ther sum of $250 should I be suc
cessful in winning the case for the
city."
The P. R, L. & P. Co. is vitally in
terested in defeating the city's rights
to the water power at the south end
of Main street. Their representatives
have been persistently demanding
that the case be taken away from me
and given to some other attorney, a
special effort being made to have a
resolution passed to that effect.
I again state to the public, as I
have previously, that ull I ask is that
the council pay me for my services
rendered in the case of David Oli
ver vs. Oregon City, which was tried
January 3 and decided in favor of
Oregon City, and relieve me officially
of all responsibility in the case of the
1 . K. L. & P. Co. vs. Oregon City, or
if I am to continue the case, provide
for the payment of my foes accord
ing to the proposition submitted to
the city council in December and
again on February 14.
If I had refused to continue the
case of the P. R. L. & P. Co. vs. Ore
gon City I would have been accused
by the newspapers, as well us by the
citizens of being a traitor to Oregon
City. Why are the agents of the P.
R. L. & P. Co. so anxous to keep me
from trying the case.'
Yours respectfully,
C. SCHUEBEL.
Judge Strikes Out Features of Latest
Amended Answer
A concluding step was taken in the
$20,000 damage suit brought by F.
J. Tooze, city school superintendent,
against Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Cartlidge,
yesterday when Judge J. U. Camp
bell struck out of the fourth amended
answer of the Cartlidges practically
every clause that counsel for Mr.
Tooze asked. This action leaves only
a skeleton to the answer and limits
the defense of the suit to evidence of
dishonesty charged against the school
official.
In saying that Mr. Tooze is dis
honest, a statement published in bul
letin No. 1, of which the Cartlidges
have admitted authorship, Mr. Tooze
has been libelled, Judge Campbell rul
ed. The defense must sustain that
charge and only that one when the
case comes to trial. C. Schuebel
council for Mr. Tooze, plans to file a
demurrer to what is left of the fourth
amended answer. Mr. and Mrs. Cart
lidge have had their last word and
must allow the case to come to trial
since another answer will not be per
mitted by the court.
The entire substance of the answer
with the exception of the repetition
of the dishonesty charge was stricken
out by the judge, including the "mit
igating circumstances," set up by Mr.
and Mrs. Cartlidge. The first de
fense in the answer was wiped out
entirely. According to counsel no ev
idence against Mr. Tooze except that
directly bearing upon his honesty will
be allowed in court. A settlement of
the case by means of an apoloev
signed by Mr. and Mrs. Cartlidge was
suggested yesterday, but they refused
to consider the proposal. If Mr;
Tooze files a demurrer and it is sus
tained it will probably mean that the
defense can enter a plea and nothing
more. Mrs. Cartlidge was formerly
nead ot the English department in
the high school and resigned with
several other teachers last fall be
cause of friction in the high school
staff.

CITY IS A GARDEN
Gladstone Residents Will Save
Through Idea of H. E. Cross
Once upon a time Broadway was a
pasture, and some enterprisng chap
wrote a song about it. If songs are in
order for such things then the next
appropriate ditty will be entitled
"When Gladstone Was a Potato
Patch." High priced potatoes will not
worry Gladstone people next year, no
matter how they drain the purses of
the rest of the country.
The facts are these: H. E. Cross,
Oregon City attorney and founder of
Gladstone, has solved the problem of
high-priced potatoes for the people
of that town. Mr. Cross still owns
the greater part of the vacant proper
ty in Gladstone and this he is plowing
up. With all the unoccupied lots and
tracts there will be more than 20
acres under the plow, to be planted to
potatoes as soon as the time is right,
mr. uross will plant onlv enouo-1
of the ground to provide potatoes fm-
the use of his own family and will
turn the balance of the land over to
the residents of the town who will
agree to plant it. For the use of the
land Mr. Cross will take one-third of
the crop, leaving two-thirds for the
people who do the planting and culti
vacing. une five-acre tract on the
oank of the Clackamas river has al
reauy Deen partially planted. The
person who took over this piece is di
viding his attention between potatoes
una onions. Practically a the vn
cant lots and tracts in Gladstone still
retained by Mr. Cross will be planted
within a few weeks. Other property
uwiiera nave lanen tneir cue from Mr.
Cross and are utilizing every spare
i ui ground.

Aberni'thy Grange Honrs Discussion
of County Affairs
Notwithstanding the snow, a large
audience turned out at Aberncthy
Grange, meeting at Parkplnce Satur
day, to hear Judge Anderson discuss
county government. In the probate
department, the judge said, he had
administrated the estates of 453 per
sons thus far, and in all but two or
three cuses had found reliable help
in the attorneys of Oregon City.
Divorces appeared lo be the leading
cause of juvenile delinquency, the
records showing an average of one
divorce a day. As a result children
with no means of support fell into
trouble. Tax, rond and county finan
cial affairs were ably discussed by
the judge, who took time to correct
some prominent misconceptions of the
facts. He especially emphasized the
statement that road money from spe
cial levies most certainly was spent
in the districts where it was levied
for such purposes. Miss Lillian An
derson, daughter of the judge, charm
ingly recited and was encored. Miss
Oehler was initiated into the grange
and other new members are expected.

Senator Lane is a Real
Wants no War
The following is taken from the
remarks of Senator Harry Lane of
Uregon as delivered on the floor o:
the senate at Washington on Febru
ary 7:
"The war between the warring na
tions is a horror, the greatest that
has ever happened in the history of
mankind; it has cost suffering and
loss of life and loss of money to a de
gree that perhaps is almost incalcu
lable. I did not want to participate
in it. We are 3,000 miles from wheit
it is being carried on, or more than
that, in fact, on the average. We will
have plenty to do if we attend to our
own business. We should occudv a
position of strict neutrality with kind
ly expression to all and the hope that
they may quit the useless slaughter
and with an offer to freely help them
recover themslves when they do quit,
quite regardless of either or any of
tne nations and without prejudice to
any one of them. That has been my
state ot mind ever since the war be
gan.
"I love the English and their bull

cestors. I think I love the French
more than any other of the warring
nations, they came to our rescue in
a time of our early history, and the
are such a light-hearted, loyal, patrl

Simple Precautions by Which Owners
Keep the Disease from Animals
Tuberculosis is the commonest ano
most widely prevalent of all conta
gious diseases. There are many other
infections, however, which are more
easily spread and to which the body
of the average man or animal is much
less resistant. The explanation of
these apparently inconsistent facts is
to be found in the appearance of per
fect health which victims of the dis
ease often possess long after they
have become active disseminators ot
the tuberculosis germ. It is thus
possible for the disease to be intro
duced into herds and to become firmly
established in them without the know
ledge of the owner.
Live stock can be protected against
this insidious disease by the practice
of two rules, which may be stated as
follows:
(1) Never" introduce an animal into
a healthy herd or flock unless there is
positive proof that it comes from a
healthy herd or flock.
(2) Consult your veterinarian re
garding the special tests wheh can be
made to prove whether animals are
free from serious and common dis
eases and make sure that no animals
are added to healthy herds unless
these tests, combined with a period
of segregation, show that they are
free from infection.

WAR OVER BOARD BILL
Smith Turner Wants Pay for Caring

Ten heirs, aligned equally against
one another, appeared before County
Judge Anderson Tuesday afternoon to
argue about a claim for $000 against
the estate of T. L. Turner, valued at
about $20,000 and divided equally
among the heirs. A son, Smith Turn
er, charged the estate $000, alleged
to be due for the board and care which
the father received during the last
five years of his life. Smith Turner
is also executor of the estate and he
is prevented from collecting his bill
by the activities of several of the
heirs who were in court Tuesday
with a large gathering of their
friends. Judge Anderson took the
matter under advisement.

children's food fund, and will be
promptly forwarded.
The committee can keep a Belgian
child alive at a cost of $1 per month,
or a little over 3 cents a day. One
hundred dollars will feed 100 children
one month; $1,000 will feed 1000 chil
dren one month. The children will
only have three slices of bread spread
with grease and a bowl of vegetable
soup, but it will sustain life.

fellow in every town where my appeal

some other fellow to do it: do it
yourself.
