CITY MAY HAVE MAIL DELIVERED.
Receipts of Oregon City Office Entitle
City to Free Delivery.
When Oregon City people make up their
minds to accomplish anything they know
nothing of the word "failure." Aa the
result of this enterprising spirit, the peo
ple of Oregon City are now on a fair
road to secure a free delivery of mall
within the city limits.
Before any. city can apply for a free
delivery of mall within Its corporate lim
its, It Is required that the receipts of the
office for the fiscal year prior to the filing
of the application, shall exceed $10,000.
Now the fiscal year upon which will be
based the acquiring of this service for
Oregon City, does not expire until tonight
the 30th Inst. But the receipts of the of
fice, as early as Tuesday of this week,
exceeded by a good margin, the minimum
amount that Is required. And all that
remains now to do ts to deal with the
Postmaster General at Washington. In j
doing this Postmaster Randall will lose
no time. He will immediately prepare a
petition, reciting the situation, which
will be signed by himself. Mayor Som
mer and perhaps the membrs of the City
Council. This done, the petition will be
forwarded to the proper authorities at
Washington In the form of an applica
tion for the Installing Of a free delivery
of mail sen-Ice here.
There is nothing' definite as to when
favorable action on the application may
be expected for the reason that the city
will first be visited by an Inspector who
will determine If the streets and houses
are properly named and numbered. If
they are not numbered as required un
der the government regulations relating
( t0 delivery of mall, there will result some
j little delay In having the service estab-
lished. In order that the work may be
expedited, citizens might acquaint them
selves with the system of numbering
their residences that was recently Intro
duced here and proceed to properly num
ber their respective places of living.

Demonstrate That We Make, Raise and
Have What Can't Be Found
In Any Other County.
While the exhibit that Is being made
from this county at the Lewis Clark
Exposition Is a reasonably creditable one,
it should be better and It Is up to the
people of the county to Improve It. Be
cause of the convenient location of
Clackamas County to the scene of the
Exposition there can be offered no valid
excuse for the exhibit not being the best
possible, especially when Is considered
the extensive resources from which the
county has to draw In the making of a
display of Its products. All that Is lack
ing, apparently, Is that essential quality
county pride and an aggressive public
spirit.
County Judge Ryan this week Issued
the appended appeal to the producers 'of
Clackamas county and there should be a
general response: 1
To the Farmer, Fruit Growers, Manu
facturers, Miner, Business Man and
Woman of Clackamas County! '
If you are Interested' In the develop
ment and growth of Clackamas County,
the promotion of Its industries, the open
ing up of its mineral resources and the
marketing and manufacturing of Its mag
nificent timber, you should come forward
and assist in making a creditable exhibit
of what we have; in the Clackamas
County Exhibit at the Lewis and Clark
Exposition we need and should have an
exhibit of every article manufactured in
the county, from every farm and orchard,
from every berry patch and vineyard and
from every mine and quarry we should
have a sample exhibit of the very best
we have; do not wait for your neighbor to
do this,' do something yourself.
Bring or send what you have to either
the Clackamaa County Exhibit in the
Agricultural Building at the Lewie and
Clark Exposition Grounds, or to the un
dersigned at the Court House in Oregon
City; good care will be taken of every
thing and due credit will be give every
person for every article exhibited.
Let us, one and all unite in this mat
ter, and prove to the world that we raise
make and have In Clackamaa County,
what can be found in no other county
in the state or nation.
Information given and articles received
at Court House, by ,
THOS. F. RYAN,
County Judge and Supt of County Ex
hibit There is no room to find fault with the
exhibit which represents the earnest,
hard work of a number of the public
spirited people of the county, a numBer
of whom, fortunately, were assigned to
places on the various committees. But
there is plenty of room for other willing
hands to accomplish something and It is
time reinforcements were responding. It
is not right that the entire responsibility
for the exhibit from this county should
rest with the few. Each resident, and
particularly producer, has an equal In
terest in the display in seeing. to it that
the county ia properly represented. There
are great benefits to follow the Exposi
tion and it is the opportunity of a life
time for Clackamas county to get her
share.
The producers of the county should
unanimously respond to the appeal of
Judge Ryan and make of the txhlblt from
this county an eye-opener to the East
ern visitor as well as a revelation to the
other competing counties. And this is
quite possible if the people of the county
will lend the situation their hearty in
terest and hearty co-operation.
