Something
About the
Celebration.
Chautauqua
The biggest Fourth In Clackamas
County Is whooping her up for Glad
stone Park, where Willis C. Hawlcy
and Homer L. Castle will orate morn
ing and afternoon, with two bands,
solos, a chorus of fifty voices, races,
stunts, and a big baseball game to fill
up the intervals. Hy a happy coinci
dence this array of speakers and sing
ers were available for the great day,
and none but an organized Institu
tion like the Chautauqua was "Johnny
on the spot" to handle It, with audi
torium, seats, booths and ball grounds
contiguous to a big restaurant and
plenty of gisxl running water.
Oregon City never does anything by
j halves
for thirteen years she has held
;the biggest Chautauqua on the Pacific
const, and never had to call on tho
city or legislature for a bonus or ap
propriation. Our business men have
stood behind this move for years, and
stand still, determined this year to
give the biggest Fourth ever known In
these parts. If the Eagle screams, and
lings flap In the breeze, If lemonade
Hows In rUers and pretty girls smile
like boquets In red white and blue, It
will only remind us older ones of the
days when we were young and took
oud best girl to the celebration.
Some ten thousand Chautauquans in
the I'nited States are celebrating the
day, with bands, banners, flags and
trumpets, and with true Independence
every man, woman and child In the
crowd can feel that h has a part and
duty In It. He can slug, shout him
self hoarse, listen to Congressmen and
statesmen, and applaud once more the
good obi Declaration of Independence
on which is based our liberty. Whoop
her up for Gladstone next Wednesday.
Tho Park hus a good name and a big
name and every speaker or singer
that ever performed there Is proud
to advertise the fact, "appeared on
the program at Gladstone," This has
CMine to be tho sign mark of excel
lence. THE CITY'S NEW TRUCK.
Change
In Equipment Revives
Memories.
Early
With tho replacing of the Columbia
Hook .& Ladder Company's old hook
and ladder truck by a modern and
completely equipped vehicle, there is
revived memories of tho city's volun
teer fire department of an early day.
The old truck that has been dis
carded from active service, but will
be held In reserve, was built In Ore
gon City from Eastern oak timber, In
the year lSGft, when it was accepted
by tho city for service. Tho truck
proved a most servicable piece of
property to the city. It was built at
Dave Smith's wagon and carriage fac
tory, being the product of the work
manship of the late John Walker, the
wheelwright. It was strongly, con
structed and well did It stand its 37
years of continuous service. It has
earned a place along with the other
relics of the city's, possessions and
when It Is finally abandoned by the 1
department, will In all probability be
preserved as a curiosity of tho city's
fire department of the GO'S.
The new truck may properly be
termed a Jewel as an addition to the
fire fighting equipment of the volun
teer department. It Is no less dur
able than Its bulky predecessor, but
Is considerably lighter in weight and
can be handled with greater case.
The Hooka are more than proud of
tho Investment that has been made by
the city and they believe that time will
demonstrate that tho $825 paid by
the city for tho truck, was well ex
pended. C. N, Creenman, the veteran express
man, Is one of the pioneer firemen of
the city, and recalls that prior to the
use of the old hook and ladder truck,
the city owned one of the old-fash-loncd
hand-pumps, which was known
as McLoughlln No. 1. At the time tho
now discarded truck was acquired,
Col. W. L. White was chief of the
department. Mr. Greenman became
a member of the department In March
1H71 although before that time he was
always In evidence at fires, and In tho
seven years following, he was absent
from roll call but twice.
Tho new truck comes direct from
tho factory at Elmlra, N. Y. Its
equipment consists of one 40-foot ex
tension trusset ladder, one 24-foot, one
20-foot, one 1G foot, all single ladders;
one 10-foot roof ladder; poles and pike-
K,Ies, teardown outfits, two axes, two
picks, two crowbars, 12 rubber buck
ets, one wirecutter, four lanterns, two
torches,' one signal lamp and one
gong.
WILL KILL FATTED CALF.
Firemen Arranging for Moniter Bar
becue July 15.
The fatted calf will be killed and the
city's volunteer firemen will eat, drink
and be merry at Canemah Park, Sun-
AaV Ttltv 1 If tha AlQj,la,a nlnna
now' contemplated are carried out. At
that time, tho firemen have decided
to hold an old fashioned barbecue and
picnic, associated with which there
will be a programme of sporta and
entertaining features that will occupy
tho day from early morning until late
In the evening. The many details of
the day's programme are receiving
the attention of a number of sub-committees
that are operating In conec
tlon with the general committee of
which Sam Stowe Is chairman. The
barbecue Is to be held at Canemah
Pars.
At a meeting of the committees
Monday night, it was definitely decid
ed to prepare a beet for the least
which will be served between 11 and
1 o'clock on the day of the barbecue.
Luther O. Moore has been selected as
chef. With the exception of the May
or and the members of the Council,
who will be invited to attend the feast,
only volunteer firemen of tho city will
partake of the spread.
In the afternoon a programme if
races will be carried out and there will
also be an exciting game of baseball,
In which the opposing captains will
be Chas. Ely and Ed Rechner.
Fire Chief McFarland, w ho has been
selected as the official umpire does
not believe in taking any chances and
Is already looking for a substitute.
The day's programme will also Include
dancing In the pavilion in the after
noon and evening. The Oregon City
Musical Society has been engaged and
its band will furnish music for the en
tire day. This will be the first pub
lic appearance of this musical organ
ization. x
Another meeting of the committees
will be held next Monday evening.
FOLLOWING THE FLAG.
When our soldiers went to Cuba
and the Philippines, health was the
most Important consideration. Willis
T. Morgan, retired Commissary Ser
jeant IT. S. A., of Rural Route 1, Con
cord, N. H., says: 'T was two years In
Cuba and two years In the Philippines,
and being subject to colds, I took Dr.
King's New Discovery for Consump
tion, which kept me in perfect health.
And now, in New Hampshire, we find
!t the best medicine in the world for
loughs, colds, bronchial troubles and
ah lung diseases., Guaranteed at How
ell & Jones, druggists. Price 50c and
$1.C0. Trial bottle free.
WEDNESDAY, "CLEAN-UP DAY."
Oregon City People Improve Appear
ance of the City.
Monday morning Mayor Caufleld.
acting under the Instructions of the
City Council, Issued a proclamation
designating and setting aside Wednes
day as a day for "cleaning up" the
city. This action was taken as the
most direct means -of accomplishing
something in the way of municipal
house-cleaning and the results justi
fied the effort.
While there was not the unanimous
response to the Invitation to remove
rubbish from yards and moss from
roofs, that was expected, still a good
beginning was made. The general ap
pearance of the city was improved by
tho work that was done and now
that a beginning hns been made, It Is
to be hoped that more such work will
be done and the city kept In a reason
able state of cleanliness.
How to Break up a Cold.
It may be a surprise to many to
learn that a severe cold can be com
pletely broken up In one or two days'
time. The first symptoms of a cold
are a dry loud cough, a profuse watery
discharge of the rose, and a thin,
whito coating on the tongue. When
Chamberlain's cough remedy is taken
immediately on the first appearance of
these symptoms, it counteracts the ef
fect of the cold and restores the sys
tem to a healthy condition within
day. or t.vn. For sulo by Howell &
Jones.

YEAR'S WORK CLOSED.
St. John's Parochial School Has Four
Graduates.
At Shively's opera house Tuesday
evening, four young people, repre
senting the- class of 1906, graduated.
The programme that preceded the
awarding of the diplomas was above
the average and the liberal applause
with which, each number was reward
ed testified that the efforts of the
; young 'people were appreciated.
from the opening chorus, "My
Country," by 50 little tots, until the
closing address by the Most Rev.
Archbishop A. Christie, the entertain
ment of the audience was at no time
lacking. The participants, and es
pecially the little ones, whom it is
a pleasure to see and listen to, did
exceptionally well, showing most care
ful and thorough training In prepara
tion for these exercises. Tho chorus
numbers, and vocal and Instrumental
duets were all good. Miss Ag;nes Jus
tin, one of the graduates, read an es
say on "Earthquakes" in which she
gave a scientific discussion of these
disturbances and their causes. The
recitation and pantomime "Music on
the Rappahannock" by Misses Justin
Baker and McDonnel, asissted by five
little girls, was among the best num
bers mi tho programme it' one could
lUaermnuhte. I he gesture.? by
little people were In perfect unison,
and with a grace and expression that
would have been creditable for per
sons many years older. Perhaps the
most original and entertaining fea
ture of the exercises was the Chinese
medley by 24 boys whose Interpreta
tion of tbe Chinaman was exceptional
ly clever. The lads were costumed aa
Chinamen and so llfe-Uke and realis
tic were their movements that the
audience could scarcely note the de
ception. Philip Julian Sinnott wan
the class valedictorian and selected
as a theme for his remarks the class
motto "The End Crowns tho Work."
The Most Rev. Archbishop A. Chris
tie, Intcoduced by Father A. Hildo
brand, delivered the address to the
graduates and the people. Compli
mentary mention was first made by
the speaker of Father Hlldebrand and
the teachers of St. John's Parochial
and High School for the high efficien
cy and excellent training afforded tbe
youth at this school. Tbe Archbishop
then spoke of the system of educa
tion as provided the Catholics, the
moral as well as the Intellectual de
velopment of the child being provided
for, without which, he said, no sys
tem of education is complete. That
education, stated the speaker, which
does not teach the human mind to
know man, to know Itself and to know
Its God, Is not complete. Addressing
the graduates, the Archbishop con
gratulated tbe young people on the
high standing attained and recom
mended that they be persevering and
diligently apply themselves In their
daily life as the only sure means of
success, which, he said, comes to no
one by Inspiration. The graduates
were: Agnes Margaret Justin, Mary
Sablna McDonnel, Charlotte Lucy
Baker and Philip Julian Sinnott.
In presenting Archbishop Christie,
Father Hlldebrand announced that a
special dispensation bad been granted
by the Pope by which the members
of the Catholic church may eat meat
on Friday of this week.

INITATIVE LAW IN FORCE.
Proclamation Issued Declaring Laws
and Amendments Adopted
by Voters. .
Secretary of State Dunbar yester
day certified to Governor Chamberlain
the vote cast for and against each of
the questions, laws and amendments
submitted to the people for their en
dorsement or rejection at the poll3 on
June 4 and the governor Issued a pro
clamation declaring in force all those
measures which received a majority
of the vates cast on the subject voted
on, without reference to whether It
was a majority of the whole vote of
the state or not The governor inter
prets the amendment of 1902 to mean
that all questions, whether by refer
endum or initiative, whether laws or
constitutional amendments, shall be
declared adopted when they have re
ceived the majority of the vote cast
thereon, regardless of the existing con
stitution provision which provides for
a majority of the votes of the state
to pass an amendment to the constitu
tion. The governor will not yet proclaim
the anti-pass law In force, though it
has received a majority. It is with
out an enacting clause and he will
submit the matter to the attorney gen
