Now will you believe It never rains
In August?
C. O. Davis had the misfortune to
lose his household effects by fire last
Sunday. He lived on the Foreman
farm, which he has rented for some
time. Supper was just ready and Mr.
Davis was away from the house at the
time. It caught from a defective flue.
The stairway and two bedrooms were
a mass of flames before anything
could be done. Very little was saved.
He moved In to the Bartlemay house
which was kindly offered him by its
owner, Mr. Harvey Gibson, where they
are slowly beginning to realize this
last -bewildering blow to them already
almost overwhelming sorrow. Mrs
Davis was away at the time, being in
Eastern Oregon at the bedside of their
daughter, Florence, aged 16, who was
thrown from a horse some two weeks
ago at her grandfather's place and so
Injured her head that her life is dis
paired of. She has never regained con-
sciousness. The Davises have the pro
found sympathy of the entire com
munity.
A delightful picnic and boating par
ty was held at the Eden picnic ground
on Clackamas river last Tuesday. A
large swing, plenty of boating and a
grand banquet was enjoyed through
out the day. Some people were too

awhile seem to be just as well off at
the end of the year.

a good turnout or us own mounters
J. J. Johnson., state lecturer of tho
order; Oscar Eaton, state chaplain;
Mrs. Mary S. Howard, stale secretary,
and a goodly number of visitors from

Granges were present. The monthly
routine business was disposed of, and
then the occasion! of tho large gather
ing was revealed the celebration of
the 88th birthday of Chaplain Eaton.
After a sumptuous dinner, the meet
ing was thrown open to tho public
and a number of Mr. Eaton's old
friends, not members of tho Grange,
were admitted to the hall, and all
united Ini extending heartfelt congrat
ulations to the cheerful old veteran
of four-score and eight years.
The programme was n holly Inform
al and under the direction of Mrs.
Helen M. Ewing. lecturer. In tho be
ginning Mr. Eaton was escorted tho
length of the hall, amid the clapping
of hands, where he was seated upon
a chair draped with "Old Glory," near
a table adorned with Mowers, and a
handsome birthday cake, suitably In
scribed, following with a Grango song
written by Mr. Eaton several years
ago, was sung to the tune of "Ameri
ca." He then recited a brief original
poem, descriptive of his life experi
ence. Then followed brier congratu
latory remarks by Rev. R. E. Jones
and Rev. D. B. Gray, both of whom
had known Mr. Eaton since his ar
rival In Oregon In 1871.
Joseph Dobbins, Mrs. J. J. Tingle,
and Mr. Allen, all of whom knew Mr.
Eaton In Grand Traverse County,
Michigan, more that 50 years ago, fol
lowed with reminiscences of those
days, which were In turn amusing, In
structive and pathetic. Vocal music
followed, by Misses Elizabeth and
Ruth Stevenson, great grand-daughters
of "Uncle John Stevenson,' a well
known pioneer of 1853.
Instrumental music, both violin and
piano, was provided by the Dickinson
brothers. George H. Hlmes being
called for, responded briefly by com-
paring the population of the Nation
and the principal cities in 1820 with
that of the present day. State Lectur
er Johnson, Mrs. Howard, state secre
tary; Mrs. Hattle L. Vail, Mrs. J. Cas-
to, M.'s. Gage, and a number of others
followed all giving strong emphasis
to the value of a life long spent In
doing good to others.
In Oregon there is probably no man
who commands more universal respect
as a good citizen anil in every sense
than Chaplain Oscar Eaton. His pres
ence in any gathering is a benediction.
Although old as measured by years,
he is still as young in spirit as ever.
He was born In Chautauqua County,
New York, August 8, 1820, on a farm,
and lived there until 1850, when he
removed to Grand Traverse County,
Michigan, where he acquired a quar
ter section of timber land and clear
ed up about 30 acres for a farm. On
August 15, 1802, he enlisted in the
Twenty-sixth Michigan Infantry, and
served through the Civil War with
credit. He was In the Second Army
Corps, commanded by General Wln
fleld S. Hancock, and his brigade com
mander wag General Nelson A. Miles.
He was In many engagements that
were particularly trying, among them
the Wilderness, Spottsylvanla Court
house, Cold Harbor and Petersburg.
He was discharged from service in
June, 18C5, and at once returned to
his farm.
In 1871. getting tired of the cold
Winters of Michigan, Mr. Eaton came
to Oregon, and first settled at Forest
Grove. In 1880 he removed to the vi
cinity of Oswego, where he has made
his home up to the present time. His
first vote was cast for every Whig
and Republican candidate for the Pres
idency Blnce.
Chaplain Eaton Joined Oswego
Grange 25 years ago, and has been a
bright and shining light In Its mem
bership ever since, exemplifying in his
upright lift every obligation he as
sumed. He has been an officer of the
subordinate and State Grange many
years, wholly unsought, and has per
formed every duty with conspicuous
fiidelity.
The meeting of Oregon Stale Good
Roads Association held In Portland
this week, whs largely attended by
delegates from all of the cities In Ore-
gon.
The meeting, which was one of the
most enthusiastic, ever held by this
association, ciiiuo to a close, on Weil
nesday afternoon, when the delegates
were taken to Greslmm by 25 largo
automobiles over the Improved roads
to tho country club, and was thorough
ly enjoyed by the visitors.
Representatives from Canby, Mil
waukee, Oak Grove and Oregon City
were present and took an active In
terest in tho proceedings.
Jui'go Ryan, of this city, was Invited
by County Judges Webster and Scott
to assist them In this work through
out the state, but his business Inter
ests prevents hi in permanently from
engaging In this work. Mr. Ryan was
on tho committee on resolutions ami
prepared those adopted by tho nsso-
elation.
Through tho report of the Commit
tee- oni Ways and Means submitted to
the Good Roads Conference nt a Into
hour Tuesday afternoon, all differ
ences between the Oregon State
Good Roads Association and tho pro
moters of the enthusiastic mass meet
ing held In Portland, were reconciled
The report follows:
"Your Committee on Ways and
Means begs leave to report that In Its
opinion tho sum of $10,000 must bo
raised to defray tho expenses of an
enthusiastic and energetic campaign
Tor giKd roads.
"Wo further recommend that two
men be employed to carry on tho work
and that theso two men bo Judge Lio
nel R. Webster, of Multnomah Coun
ty, and Judgn John H. Scott, of Marlon
lounty, provided satisfactory arrange
ments can ho made with theso gen
tlemen by tho committee.
"It Is further the sense of this Com
mittee that it should havo a perma
nent existence and be tho medium
through which tho work of this con
ference bo carried on.
"Mr. V. U. Crlssey has been madn
permanent secretary of this commit
tee, without salary. Rosnectfnilv

Jayiw J. W. Iialloy. John S. Iloall, G.

J. II. Albert, of Marlon, was larirelv
responsible for being ahlo to unlto
tho boosters Into a harmonious unit,
resulting In the selection of Mr. Scott,
from tho older organization, and Judgo
Webster, as tho representatives of tho
entire movement.
In carrying out tho plans projected
by the enthusiastic road-builders, It
Is proposed to raise at least 110,000,
perhaps more, by subscription. To
this will bo added donations In vari
ous sums of more than $100 to bo

he cost of constructing a road should state has devoted Ms tlmo to farming
t
he lMrnu one-third by the slate, one
third by tho county and one-third by
tho owners of abutting property. It
also provided for a road commission,
authorized to appoint a state superin
tendent of roads, thus taking tlmt plum
away from tho Governor.
Judge Ryan's hcIiciuo of assessing
the cost of roail construction to road
districts met with many supporters.
Tho beauty of tho Clacknmas Coun
ty Jurist's plan Is that If a county
Judge ho desires he can put an entire
county Into a single district, thus dis
tributing the taxation.
Ilefore tho resolutions committee,
President ltuxton, of the state grange,
made a strong plea for tho farmers.
Ills organization would help to get
bill providing for district taxation, but
would opioso any sort of a bonding
measure.
In 1902 tho good rouriH movement
was commenced In Oregon ns tho re
sult or a visit of a party of officials
from Washington, D. C. From that
meeting tho sentiment has spread to
every county In the state. The dele
gates announced their realization of
tho advantages tho state would receive
from a great system of solid, clean, en
during highways, which would afford
opportunity for the wealthy to pass
their vacations in automolilllng
and berry raising, his berries always
commanding tho highest market prices
on account of their excellent quality.
