OREGON CITY ENTERPRISE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 1907.
ATTEND IN A BODY
THE MELVIN FUNERAL
MAPLE LANE GRANGE ADJOURNS
PROGRAM TO RESPECT DE.
CEASED MEMBER.
At the regular monthly mooting of
Maple Lane grange. No. "!H5, Satur
day, Pr. ami Mrs. T. E. Reard were
received into membership. Dr. and
Mrs. Beard came here from Grants
rasa a few months ago and recently
built a new house on the farm of his
brother William Heard, southeast of
town.
The grange work was greatly faci
litated by the purchase by the grange
of implements by the newly elected
steward, Mrs. Anna J. Lewis.
After dinner the literary program
and installation of officers was post
poned till the February meeting and
the grange proceeded in a body to
Mountain View cemetery to attend the
burial of Mrs. S. Z. Melvln. Maple
Grange has been organized for six
years and this is the first death in
the membership. A beautiful floral
tribute was tendered and three mem
bers of the grange, William Heard.
August Splinter and A. J. Hobble,
were pall bearers, the other three,
Messrs, Cooper, White and Brant, be
ing from the Artisan lodge.
An invitation was received from
Central Grange of Beaver Creek to
attend their meeting January 19, at
which time the newly elected master
of Maple Lane grange, Mrs. Mary
Shelly, will be the installing officer.
Aa many as can are making arrange
ments to attend.
MUST PAY PARE
OR MUST WALK
Railroad Companies Have Not Issued
Passes Comply to Wishes
of People.
It now appears that the Oregon leg
islators must pay fare or walk, as no
passes have been issued this year by
the Southern Pacific and word has
gone arouftd in political circles that
there will be none. Even the mem
bers of the legislature, who are soon
to convene in Salem to make laws for
the railroads and other people, have
been forgotten by the transportation
company for the first time since the
road was built. Now even the Gov
ernor, who was never before known
to be without a full supply of passes,
oust pay his fare or walk.
Evidently the railroad company has
concluded to bow to the wishes of the
people as expressed in the vote on
the anti-pass law in June, or it feels
that the present car-shortage agitation
means certain anti-railroad legisla
tion and the giving of passes would
do no good.
The discontinuance of the pass priv
ilege will present a new problem be
fore the Oregon legislature. Some
provision must now be made for pay
ing the traveling expenses of the Gov
ernor, Secretary of State and State
Treasurer when they travel on the
state's business. They make a trip
to The Dalles occasionally to inspect
the portage road and to other parts
of the state to visit state institutions.
Heretofore they have ridden on passes
and charged the state no mileage. Now
the state must pay their fares.
The new policy will also exert a
direct influence on the legislature.
Heretofore the legislature has ad
journed every Friday noon until the
following Monday and the members
went home or to Portland. Now that i
they must pay their fare?, the mem-
bers will not be, so anxious to go
home, but can stay in Salem and keep j
the wheels of legislation moving I
Quite a number of the state officers
and employes have had passes and
charged no mileage to the state. The
State Land Agent, who in the past
has had much traveling to do, was one
of these, and the state saved many
hundred dollars through the use of
his pass. It is reported that some of
cials have ridden on passes and also
collected from the state the usual rail
road fare.
TRAMP KILLED ON
S. P. AT MILWAUKIE
Milwaukie, Jan. 4. An unknown
tramp was killed on a Southern Paci
fic freight just north of here last
night, while riding the trucks. The
heavy rains had softened the road
bed and the track sank beneath the
engine. The water put out the fire
in the fire box and the engineer and
fireman had to climb on the tender
to escape the steam. The water wash
ed the tramp off the trucks and he
was immediately killed.
Miss Pearl Wood, who is clerking
in the Fair Store, has been absent for
a few days on account of illness.

DEMAND EGGS DE
SOLD 5Y POUND
Market Flooded With Small Sized Hen
Fruit Poultry Men
Kick.
Local dealers say that It will not be
long before eggs will be sold by the
pound. This change will be neces
sary on account of the various sizes
of eggs. The market lately has been
flooded with the small variety, so that
patrons have complained of the small
ness of the eggs.
This Is due to inferior poultry being
raised in the country in so many
places. The owners of the larger va
riety of hens are also complaining at
not being able to receive better prices
for the large product they bring In.
CROWN BOYS IN
RICH ORE LEDGE
C. F. Anderson, president of the
Crown Boys Mining and Milling com
pany, is expecting daily some ore sam
ples from the mines.
Letters have been received lately
from the manager at the mines giv
ing encouraging reports of strikes of
ore bodies and the samples will be
taken to the meeting Monday, when
officers for the coming year will be
elected.
POWER OF GON
IN RECENT STORM.
A large audience greeted Rev. E. C.
Oakley at the beginning of his pas
torate of the First Congregational
church, Sunday morning, and the
church auditorium was nearly filled
again at the ,evening service, when
the new pastor preached a strong ser
mon from the text found in Romans
I:1C.
Rev. Oakley used the great rain
storm as one illustration of the pow
er of God, telling of how his train
had run slowly many miles because
the track was covered with water,
and of the vast extent of land covered
with the flood, then giving the calcula
tion of 1 inch of water on 1 square
mile weighing OO.OOO tons. During
last Thursday's storm nearly two
inches of water fell on all of western
Oregon from Ashland to Vancouver,
and all that immense weight, millions
of tons, had been held in the sky in
the form of clouds by the air "yet
that was not even the little finger of
God's power."
Rev. Oakley did not arrive in Ore
gon City until Saturday, having been
delayed by the floods. Mrs. Oakley
is in Portland for the present, and he
has rooms at the home of Mrs. M. M.
Charman, while the Congregational
parsonage is being put in order for
the arrival of their household goods.
Rev. Robins and a number of the
members of the Baptist church at
tended the Congregational services
Sunday evening, there being no ser
vices in the Baptist church because
water in the basement prevented fire
in the furnace.
NELSON SYSTEM

Fred Nelson, ex-deputy assessor of
Clackamas county, left Sunday even
ing, for Astoria where he will be em
ployed for several months making

to employ Mr. Nelson to revise their
system.

SOLD 10 SAWYER
Charles Albright has sold hU meat
market in Oregon City to R. A. Saw
yer of Portland. The deal was clos
ed Thursday and Mr. Sawyer at once
took possession. Mr. Sawyer sold his
market on Madison street, Portland,
two weeks ago, having been in busi
ness there for several years and Is
an experienced meat man. He ex
pects to continue the business at the
old stand along the same lines as
conducted by Mr. Albright, but hopes
to also enlarge his business by pro
viding a market where, farmers may
dispose of their porduct at highest
market prices. He will pay cash for
cattle, hogs, veal, mutton, poultry,
eggs, and being well acquainted with
the Portland dealers will be able to
handle an unlimited supply of this
country produce. This will bo a great
convenience to the farmers adjacent
to Oregon City and will doubtless be
appreciated by them. Mr. Sawyer will
move his family here from Portland
at once.
The Albright market has been a
fixture in Oregon City since 1853, when
it was established by Charles Albright,
one of the pioneer butchers of Ore
gon, he having been In business In
Portland three years prior to coming
here. His son, Charles Albright, suc
ceeded to the business In 1S77, and
the market has enjoyed a wide patron
age as a clean, up- to-date shop. Mr.
Albright will remain with Mr. Sawyer
a few weeks.

social Friday night which netted
