Eggs Are Out of Sight and Poultry People Fortunate. The short rain of Thursday morn Ing was enough to lay , the dust for the County Fair, but not enough to help the pastures that are needing a good wetting. The warm weather of tho past week was only a provoking after-thought of the weather man, af ter thousands of dollars of g-irden tmck had been spoiled by a fctv cold nights. I'here Is a slight advance In the price of oats through this sjctiua of the country. All other grains hold steady.

FOOTBALL AND POLITICAL SEASON THE FLOWER FOR OCTOBER IS THE HOP WHICH SIGNIFIES THAT THE FATES ARE AGAINST PROHIBITION ONE MONTH IN THE YEAR. For October. (Copyright 1908. by C. H. Rleth.) Now, Taft wna enjoylug An neroplnno tight, And skimming around Like tho mun-swallow Wright, When who should appear, Holding fast to his lint And snlllng tho sky, . Hut tho man from the Platte. w Suld fnt mil to Plntto Bill, "Now, Isn't this great?" Suld Bryan, "You bet Is my rudder on straight?" And the wind coming up With. a slight show of bluster, They both skidded off Through the nlr bolly buster. And while they were flying About a mile high, The Roosevelt ontry Emitted a cry; And llrynn, supposing He'd dropped from tho race, Slowed up with a horrified Usik In his fuce. Hut Taft wns Just flontlng "My motor's gune out! Now baud mo a match When you next como about!" Hut Brynn Just laughed. And he said, "My ilear speeder, Remember that 1 . Am tho grout nmtchless leader." October is from the Latin octo, meaning eight. It was the eighth month of the old Roman calendar. This brought oyters In at the end of August, when they had to be candled like eggs, and the Oyster Trust al ways cornered the supply In cold stor age. But Rome, like every other na tion, had a reformer not too often for reasonable profits In business, and when Nama PoinpllluB came Into pow er In 713 B. C. he made October the tenth month, and busted the Oyster Trust. H was Idolized by a grateful populace and was only relinquished to privste life in his later days that he might gratify his desire 10 nuni mg game In Africa. Tho presidential race will reach Three qunrtors of a mile, And both Bills will hit It up In good old-fashioned stylo. The Plntto will shake his big brogans And put up dust and dirt, Tho giant Taft will grunt and sweat And rip his undershirt, , The plaudits of the multitude Will rise In mighty peals, And the watchful Teddy Bear will nip At Wllllnm Howard's heels. The pink mudguards of Sunny Jim will catch tho frost descending, and turn a fine automual red, with the burning sumac blending; the frost will thin out Mr. Kern's elaborate chin thicket, and each of these halr-boat- Ing tails will go some on his ticket. The frost will paint the sassafras a deep and glowing rati, and the farm hand will resume his howl for Blank ets on his bed. The plant exuded phosphorus will gossamer the air, the stiff rheumatic will put on his wind proof underwear, the southward mov ing ducks will quack upon the reeded lakes, and man will line himself In side with buttered flannel cakes. ' The women will parade beneath the big sky-scraper hats, and guy lines strung to steady them will ancSor In their rats; and every time the wind blows brisk, with many screams and, squeals, they'll all turn turtle and will fan the azure with their heels. The camper will unto the woods To live the life of Crusoe And the quail will balance on a rail And whistle like Caruso. The poor hay fever patient will re turn fmtn Mr retreat and every time his nose goes off he honks upon the the year, anyway. der the influence of the zodiacal sign Scorpio the crustacean. Persons born in Scorpio are lobsters, and are mostly actors and base ball players. They have remarkable foresight. Among other things, they can tell when the hired girl is going to quit, and always give her notice first. The armored football player will ca vort In padded pants and butt to beat a billy gnat while frenzied thousands dance. He'll cut the foe with glass hid in his Paderewski mop, and when they plle-on sacks he 11 do a war dance on top. The college men will all get up and yell like Kingdom Come, the college girls will swallow six or seven gobs of gum, tho autumn sun will be obscured by colors, horns and hats the catapulting end will cave the other fellow's slats, the giant centers will collide like two excursion trains, the guards will paw the earth and scram ble one another's brains; and when the ambulance drives up, with great vociferation the howling mob will give three cheers for higher education. The flrst frost ripened hickory nuts win rattle to the ground. And local option will put on The blower -all around. The hunter's moon will sail the sky. The bee will duck the clover. And the other Wright in France will knock The Eiffel Tower over. The flower of October Is the hop. This signifies that the fates are against prohibition in one month of street, we'll scramble for the nearest curb as fast as we can durt, believing that his lusty sneeze Is some ski- doodle cart. The candidate will press his suit snd tell his llttls Jokes while he Is handing out cigars they name for famous folks; and notwithstanding all the harm thla aort of smoke has done us, we'll all waits up again and try his deadly Mrs. Ounness.

Erickson and his attorney, George C. Browndl, appeared before Justice of the Peace Samson, and asked that the case be continued until Thursday when the former North End concert hall proprietor will plead. He gave bonds In the sum of $250 for his ap pearance. The arrest of Erickson ends a watch that the authorities have kept jver the Tavern for several months and they have obtained evidence that la so conclusive that the accused man can hardly escape. The penalty for selling liquor without a county license is a fine of not less than $400 or more than $800, and Erickson's flagrant vio lation of the law may give blm the long end of the penalty. The site of Clackamas Tavern, four miles from Oregon City up the Clack- , a mas River, was formerly used by Erickson as a stock farm, but about two years ago he Inaugurated his Tavern and soon after he attempted to obtain a license from the county, but the storm of opposition was so great that the petition was with drawn. Flying in the face of the law. Erickson proceeded to retail liquor, having a bar In his resort and placard ing the fences along the road with beer and whiskey advertisements, and also Issuing printed liquor lists through the mails. People from Port land and Oregon City have gone to tiie place frequently and been enter tained. More than once the authori ties have tried to secure direct evi dence against Erickson. but tt was not easy to find a man who would go to the place and swear to a complaint under which successful prosecution could be made. Sheriff Beatle and Deputy District Attorney Stipp look ed for many weeks in vain for a man with nerve enough to procure the nec essary evidence and at lasct they thought of Constable Miles, who was game. 1 Miles went out to Clackamas Tav ern last Thursday, entered the build ing and sauntered leisurely through the dining room and bar room and finally atracted the attention of Erickson. "Can't you let me have something to get the dust out of my eyes?" quer ied the plain clothes man. "Sure," said Erickson. "I have some near beer." "That won't take the dust out of my eyes." taid Miles. "Haven't you got any whiskey?" Erickson fell head over heels into the trap and brought some Scotch that he said was worth $8 a gallon. Miles took a drink of this and then sampled another brand and after drinking a botle of beer with Erick son, he purchased a half pint of whis key and brought the stuff to Oregon City with him. Tuesday afternoon Sheriff Beetle in formed Erickson by telephone that he had a warrant for his arrest, and the Tavern man agreed to cfame into town. An hour later his big red automobile stopped In front of Attorney Brown- ell's office and after a brief consulta tion the required ball was furnisheJ. Erickson was extremely reticlent Last month Erickson made a second attempt to obtain a license from the County Court to sell beer. The people of Gladstone, however, presented an overwhelming remonstrance and Erickson has had the fact demonstrat ed to him that it is useless to try to secure a license to sell liquor in Aber nethy Precinct. Erickson waived examination In the Justice Court yesterday and gave bonds In the sum of $750 for his ap pearance at the November term of the Circuit Court. WATER TAKEN FOR POWER.
