One of the results surpassing the

His plurality In New York State will

HUMANE SOCIETY MEETS.
Re-elects Officers For the Coming
Years Work.
Miss Anita Hensley McCarver de
livered the following address Monday
night at tne annual meeting of the
Clackamas County Humane Society
in the parlors of the Bank of Oregon
City. Miss McCarver Is president of
tne association:
"The Clackamas County Humane
Society was organized October 10.
1898, for the purpose of preventing
cruelty to helpless children and dumb
animals. Through the efforts of the
society two beautiful drinking foun
tains have been Installed in Oregon
City, and much good has been done in
relieving brute creatures from cruel
treatment. The society feels under
obligations to Mr. Darwin Bradley
who has kindly acted as humane of
ficer for the past two years without
compensation. The demands upon the
society, of course. Increase with the
growth of the city, and many times
hours ar,e spent and repeated trips by
the officers made before the results
are obtained.
"In view of the public good accom
plished by the officer, it is the senti
ment of the society that he should re
ceive some pay from the city. The so
ciety does not ask for a large fund to
maintain the work; yet, while the
members are giving much valuable
time and influence for the benefit of
suffering creatures and the public
good, the request that the humane
officer be paid from the city's funds
seems deserving and Just
1 he society Is doing all in Its pow
er to carry out the object for which
It was organized, hut could do a great
more were the financial conditions
more favorable. An Increased mem
bershlp list would be much appreci
ated. In conclusion, we cannot for
get tho many courtesies extended to
our society through the columns of
the press and vote of thanks is here
by expressed."
All the officers of the Society were
re-elected.
The entertainment given by the la
mes or tne Congregational church at
Parkplace on Hallowe'en night was
successful. A large crowd was pres
ent to enjoy the musical and literary
program, which was followed by
supper. The partners for supper were
secured by matching colors. Fortune
telling was also among the features
of the evening. The entertainment
was given In the Grange hall, which
was decorated with evergreens.
The Oreo Club entertained the V-
Go-I-Go Club at the home of Bothwell
Avlson on Sixth and Center streets
Friday night. Hallowe'en games were
the main features of the evening. In
a guessing contest Miss Lillian Grles-
sen was awarded the first prize, and
Miss Bess Warner, the consolation
prize. The house was appropriately
decorated with purple and white, the
colors of the Oreo Club, and autumn
leaves. During the evening a lunch
eon was served by Mrs. E. T. Avison,
who was assisted by Miss Marjorle
Caufield.
