"Flag of the free heatrs' hope and
home!
By Angels' hands to valor given; .
Thy stars have lit the welkin dome,
And all thy hues were :born in
Heaven.
Forever float that standard shet!
Where breathes the foe but falls be
fore us.
With Freedom's soil beneath our feet,
And Freedom's banner streaming
o'er us."

uxxiciais city and county, committees and citizens
slumbered over their civic duty and there was no protest.
Jsuuueniy there was some stir ! Then an awakening i !
There must be some way lor workmen and other pedes
trians to cross the river. The county court, West Lmri
ana Uregon uity councils, citizen and live wire committees
held weary sessions even behind closed doors and finally
evolved tne iootbnage plan. It was not what they want
ed, nor did the public want it, though they slumbered on
- except just enough vigilantes and kickers to keep the pub
lic crib a totter.
Sudden as an earthquake shock there came the alarm
that the bridge arch would obstruct navigation; that the
main arch wouldn't clear the boats in high water that
floating debris would knock the bridge piers to smither
eens at pleasure and navigation would be dangerous or
. impossible. But here's the real climax. Business men this
week have aroused themselves on this bridge problem as
never before. And with united vision and effort planned
the operation of a ferry to provide transportation across
the river.
In two days, less than a dozen citizens with single ac
cord and one purpose raised by popular subscription over
$4U0UUU to establish this line of transportation.
The wail of complaint about things which MIGHT
HAVE BEEN gave the solicitors nervous prostration;
And other things which ARE but which OUGHT NOT
10 BE resulted in expression unprintable.
But the spirit of unity and determination forced
aside all obstacles. The contribution of $4000.00 for bene
fits open to all Clackamas county is an expression of pro
gress and good will.
This method of providing this public utility ought
not to have been necessary, but the effect should be both
permament and beneficial. The future slogan should be,

progress and prosperity ot Clackamas County

Each day the demand grows stronger for readjust
ment of ratios which will mane it possible for the produc
ers of foods to enjoy the same compensation ior tneir la
uor that the railroad employes enjoy irom theirs. Anu
when this balance is obtained lower freight rates must
speedily follow. Or vice versa allowing only suificient
ame for the readjustment when there shall come still low
er prices on necessities, the employes witi find a more equi
table balance than now.
The first step may be taken by the Labor Board, the
railroads or the employes.
If the railroads and the employes do not take the
iead, the Labor Board must act or admit its inability Ox
unwillingness to function. In either of these cases it
should be abolished.

December 10 last year was the date set by the Pub
lie Service Commission when the construction of a new
freight depot, and other improvements in the S. P. R. J
property at Oregon City should have been completed. But
to date nothing has been done that was ordered done. The i ::
snmp prmrHtinns in regard to unloading- stock Drevails that ; X
prevailed when the order was made. The same bad con-!::
ditions prevail generally.
The delay is charged up to Oregon City s desire to
open Railroad avenue which runs adjacent to the old de
pot, coupled with the hope that the company will help m
this city enterprise in return for modification of the
Service Commission's order. The city it is reported has
