Kubli Scheduled For Speaker Of House
Moser, Ritner And Johnson
In Hands Of Friends
Immediately after the May primaries
began the individual campaign of can
didates for the presidency of the sen
ate and for speaker of the house of
representatives.
Contenders for the speakership were
Kav Rurdir.k Kubli and others. The
Clackamas county delegation threw its
united support to Kubli. It is now j get your share of inspiration from a

has been defeated. Kitner, one oi me
eastern Oregon block, is now presi
dent. Johnson has not been making
an active campaign and does not claim
many followers, but is considered a
stalker for the eastern Oregon block.
-Moser' s candidacy has suffered from
the announcement that Kubli is to be
speaker. There are those otherwise
friendly to Moser, who now claim that
so great influence as rests in the ap
pointive power of the speaker of the
house and president of the senate,
should not be centered in Portland.
Roy Ritner, now president of the
senate, and six other senators now
form an eastern Oregon block. It is
claimed that four of them in the final
voting are to carry the whole seven.
And it has been the hope of the organ
ization of the group to combine with
valley men on a man for president sat
isfactory to them. It has even been
hinted that there are flirtations on be
tween this block and the Moser following.-
The latest resume of the situation is
to the effect that the western and val
ley senators are not enthusiastic over
a coalition with the eastern brethren
and that the senators outside those
pledged to Eddy are free to support
whpm they will. Both Eddy and
Moser have hopes of the easterners,
who are just now considering the ad
visability of putting forth one of their
own number for the honors.
Altogether, however, Senator B. L.
Eddy, who has been in the legislative
service of his state for two score years,
will be the winner. Senator Eddy has
been straightforward and fair to the
various interests before the legisla
ture. He has clear vision and is ener
getic and efficient.
DEFINITE DATE URGED
FOR OPENING NEW SPAN
,
At the recent meeting of the State
Highway Commission, the engineer
was instructed to set a date for the
opening of the new bridge. This will
be necessary in order that the dedica
tion ceremony may proceed definitely.
The desire for widening the west
approach to the bridge is held in check
by the demand for $18,000 for the
Knightly store building, which ob
structs the proposed way. The com
mission and others consider this price
exhorbitant.

Recall Expensive
- It cost the Recall Committee $593.20
in their recent unsuccessful attempt to
recall County Judge Harvey E. Cross,
according to the statement filed with
the county clerk by G. R. Hobbs, secre
tary of the organization. Of this
amount Percy T. Shelly, who was man
ager of the ill-starred venture, leceiv-
ed $150 for his services. The Oregon
City Enterprise, for printing, advertis
ing and distributing advertising mat
ter, was paid $183.15. The balance
was eaten up by postage, office rent
and miscellaneous expenditures.
The statement acknowledges the re
ceipt, from private contributions, of
an amount equal to the expenditures.
The names of the donors are not
given.
Truck Tonnage Reduced
The county court has issued an or
der making a reduction in the weight
allowed motor trucks. Four hundred
pounds per tire inch will be allowed
all trucks. This is a reduction from
past allowances of 500 pounds per tire
inch for tires under 30 inches and 600
pounds per tire inch for those over 30
inches. Only the Pacific highway is

A quiet but beautiful home wedding
took place at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Willis Yonce, 1103 Fifth street, last
Thursday evening at 6 o'clock,- when
Virgil W. Yonce and Miss Edith Freeze
were joined in wedlock by Rev. H. G.
Edgar.
Preceding the ceremony, Miss Leta
Posson of Estacada played softly "Just
Away." This was immediately follow
ed by a solo , "God Made Thee Mine,"
sung by Mrs. Joseph Miller, of this
city, after which Lohengrin's wedding
march was played also by Miss Pos
son. In a corner of the living room, be
tween two windows, an arch had been
formed of white chrysanthemums min
gled wih ferns, before which, with it3
background of green, the marriage cer
emony took place.
A canopy of white crepe paper with
strips of green on either side, extend
ed along the ceiling from wedding arch
to dining room, indicating the path
way the bride was to take. Preceded
by her bridesmaid, Miss Helen Woos
ter, of Portland, the bride, entering,
advanced to the strains of "Lohen
grin," to the middle of the room,
where she was met by the groom and
escorted by him to her place in front
of the arch, where, facing the minister,
they were joined in marriage, the ring
ceremony being used.
Crowned with the "shower of pearls"
and orange blossoms, which caught
and held in place her wedding veil of
tulle, the bride, in a dress of white
satin made by her mother, and carry
ing a shower boquet of bride's roses
and lillies of the valley, presented a
picture long to be remembered by the
few intimate friends and relatives who
had gathered to witness the ceremony.
A necklace of pearls, gift of the groom,
gave a finishing touch to a beautiful
bridal costume.

Unusual Damage Is Now
Experienced By
Grain Fields
Clackamas County Agent Holt, Cooper
ating With O. A. C. Wages For
Control of Glassy Cutworm.
A farmer in the Surinyside commun
ity recently reported Jo the County
Agent that something was destroying
his fall wheat An investigation was
made and with the assistance of the
Entomology Department of the Ore
gon Agricultural College it was found
that the damage is being done by the
"Glassy cutworm." This worm cuts
off the young plant a shoTt distance
below the surface of the ground, caus
ing the earth to be entirely bare of
grain, in places many hundred square
feet have been destroyed.
Mr. Rockwood of the U. S. Entomo
logical Station at Forest Grove has
made an examination of the effected
field and has identified the worm as
one which works only on plants simi
lar to wheat and oats. The best con
trol is effected by crop rotation which
includes some crop such as clover, on
which the worm' will not live. This
field has been in grain for six years at
least. According to Mr. Rockwood it
is very unusual for this worm to be
so destructive at this season, as it
usually is active in the spring months.
The County Agent has arranged with
the Bureau of Entomology to keep this
case "under observation and to carry
on some control tests during the com
ing months.
The rworm varies in color from a
clear white to brownish and may be
a quarter inch to an inch in lenght.
Other cases of this kind should be re
ported to the County Agent at Oregon
City.
Construction Bond Roads
Planned For Next '
Year
Road Districts Levying Special Ten
Mill Tax Will Receive Equal Sum
- From County Funds
Plans for the construction of bond
roads during 1922, contemplate the
building of nearly 28 miles of perman
ent roadway. The roads contemplated
as a part of the 1922 program includes
two miles of the Molalla road; four
miles of the Beaver Creek road; Bar
ton and Estacada road, ten miles; Bor
ing road, three miles; Logan road,
three miles; Damascus-Portland road,
two and one-half miles; Clackamas
river road, three miles. -
It is estimated that the base and
grading can be completed ready to lay
the pavement, on these roads for $1
000 per mile.
The county court bas
notified each district in which road ;
meetings are to be held, that In the
construction of the base and grade the
districts levying a special ten-mill tax
for this purpose would receive a like
amount from the county court to help
in construction work. The court
matching the special levy up to 500
for each mile.
In addition, if the program of making
the special levies is carried out, it will
lead to the Reparation of the base,
ready for paving, in 1924 of the Canby-
Marquam road, a distanct of four
miles; Wilson ville-Oswego road, three
miles; Springwater-Oregon City road,
three miles.
88-ACRE TRACT ADDED
TO HOSPITAL SITE
An 88-acre tract was added to the
site of the DroDOsed convalescent hos
pital at Canby, when Dr. C. H. Schenk
of Salem, last week, purchased a tract
of land from George H. Brown of New
Era. The deal, made through A. C.
Howland of Oregon City, was closed
Tuesday night, the consideration be
ing about $26,400, or approximately
$300 an acre.
This property, which- is under culti
vation, is located on the Pacific high-
way, about one mile south of New Era,
and is considered one of the best tracts
in that section. A residence is in
cluded, but a small portion of the land
upon which is situated a potato ware
house is reserved by Mr. Brown.

Lowest - Bid Referred To Engineer
Pending Settlement Of a Few
Minor Objections
For many months the unsettled con
dition surrounding the Pacific highway
outlet south through Oregon City, have
been a worry to city officials, business
men and others.
The general plan at first was to pro
ceed down Main street to Fifth, over
the hill and through Canemah, with
overhead railroad crossings at the en
trance tp Canemah and at Fifth street.
Some local citizens advanced the prop
osition of improving Railroad avenue
to Fifth street and reaching the said
avenue via Seventh street from the!
new bridge.
Opposing forces plead with the high
way commission, and finally the com
mission decided in favor of Seventh
street and Railroad avenue.
The financing of the Main-Fifth
street route "was provided for by the
Hawley Paper Company, the S. P. and
P. R. L. & P. and C. W. P. companies.
The amount agreed upon was approxi
mately $105,000, which was the esti
mate several months ago. The present
bid is $98,610.
The council was asked by the high
way commission to provide for the im
provement of Railroad avenue, but had
no means for this work, and there fol
lowed the announcement that the Haw
ley interests would not donate to the
project unless the route were over
Main and Fifth, streets, .
The commissioners, at the meeting
on Tuesday, at which time the bid for
the South End road was opened, re
ferred the matter of the lowest bid,
that of Rejotte & Winters, to the en
gineer. The details having been practically
all arranged, the final decision to go
ahead with the work is believed but a
few days away.

erans of this distriot rehabilitated, the

districts of the country in the number
of vocationally rebuilt former service
people, as compared with the number
entering training. This announcement
was made by L. C. Jesseph, northwest
district manager of the bureau, who
stated that there were 2767 others in
training at the expense of the govern
ment now. Only veterans who receiv
ed disabilities in war service which
j prevent them from resuming their pre
war vocations were awarded training.
This district, which includes Wash
ington, Oregon and Idaho is also one
of the two leaders in the United States
in expeditious adjudication of compen
sation claims, Mr. Jesseph stated. Only
476 such claims out of a tojal of 14,

. LAW SUBJECT TO ABUSE
Section 8687, Oregon Laws, requires
that all food products put up in pack
age form, must have plainly printed
on the wrapper thereof the net weight,
measure or numerical count of the
contents of said package.
"The U. S. Food and Drug act re
quires that food in package form shall
bear a statement of the quantity of t
contents at the time it is offered for
interstate shipment or otherwise comes
Because of variations in weight which
may occur before shipment, a state
ment of 'Net Weight When Packed is
not necessarily a statement of the net
weight when offered for shipment.
Allowance should be made in packing
products which are liable to change
in weight, so that the declaration of
net weight will be true at the time the
article becomes subject to operation of
the law."
In the violations of the net weight
law which this office is finding in
the state, they are almost invariably
made by the manufacturers using the
term "Net Weight When Wrapped," or
"Net Weight When Packed." Or the
said terms are apparently used as a
buffer which such violations are made,
and such terms were declared to r
not proper on January 9, 1920.
Under the net weight law of Oregon
no such terms (when packed, or when
wrapped) are permissible or allowable
as the public is interested only in the
net weight of a. food package at the
time isame is offered for sale,

TURKISH RULER FLEES
UPON BRITISH
VESSEL
According to late dispatches, Mo
hammed VI, the Sultan of Turkey, has
fled from Constantinople on a British
warship, bound for Malta.
Upon embarking the Sultan denied
that he was adicating, but stated that
he was merely removing himself from
possible danger.
The status of the Sultan has been
rather an uncertain one since the ac
tion of the Turkish Nationalist assem
bly at Angora, to deprive him of his
civil authority, and declaring that the
Caliph, or religious head of Islam,
would hereafter be selected from the
imperial house by vote of the grand
national assembly.
The bulk of his guard having re

the Sultan has been' virtually at the

decide to descend in force upon his
palace.

- Floor Space Is 2720 Feet.
(From Camby Correspondent)
At a business meeting of the board
of 'directors of the Luthern Church,
held at their church building last
Tuesday, it was decided to move their
church building to lots 7 and 8 in
block 4, in the city of Canby, the
ground recently' purchased for this
purpose by their building committee.
It was also decided that the old build
ing should be worked over, remodeled
and added to in such plan as to give
them an eight thousand dollar build
ing. - The floor plan will cover a space of
40 by 68 feet with a full basement,
equipped for modern service, both in
social and Sunday school capacity. It
finished in accordance with present
plans it will give Canby another up-to-date
church building and give to
the Lutheran congregation of Canby
and Barlow a good house of worship,
at which they may well be proud.
Mr. Andresen of Barlow has been
awarded the contract of moving the
old building to the new eite, and Rer.
Skilbsed the pastor, was appointed as
chief solicitor. Rev Skilbred came to
Canby from Montana, less than a year
ago, and in his short period of service,
has made his work tell, in a progres

to the working force of the Luthern
Church in this section.

MOTHERS' COUNCIL MEETS
AT CARSON HEIGHTS.
(From Carson Heights correspondent)
.It was' a most enthusiasitc group of
mothers who gathered at the home of
Mrs. LaVey Kohlhase at the meeting
of the Mothers' Council of Brownie
Troop No. 1. Many plans were dis
cussed for the development of the
troop. The quilt for the bazaar is near-
ing completion and material for the
uniforms has been purchased. A do
nation of 75 cents per Brownie by the
parents was made to cover expenses.
Mrs. E. Plank, first grade teacher at
Capitol Hill school, Mrs. J. V. Patton
arid Mrs. George Smith Brown, were
elected honorary mothers.
The troop is to be congratulated
upon its leaders. Mrs. R. Bruce Hors
fall, as captain, is an indefatigable
worker for their welfare, and Mrs. La
Vey Kohlhase has proved herself a
most charming, capable lieutenant.
