refunding mortgage covering tho bond
Issues of the two roads.
Although president Darius Miller
and other officials of the llurllngton

though generally believed, the an
nouncement Is' construed In many
quarters as the first step in a plau

Speaking of heroes
Note how John Grady of Nantlceke.

Nor was he Intoxicated nor beside

one day be was carried lino the pre

both arms literally buiiieil off by s

But when he saw bis mother be fur
got bis pulu.
You see, mothers are Just Immid ue
In their boys. It Is the way of them
that when a son suffers pniu in thelt
presence they suffer as keenly as he
doa.
John Grady knew that.
And so, crushing back the pnln that
was taking his life, he called nut to his
mother to say that he was not bidly
hurt. "There Is no cause for alarm,
tnavourecn." said John Grady to his
little old Irish mother. Ami then-
Reclng the look of maiernal anguish,
he thought of bis mother's favorite
long. She had sung It to him in .h.s
cradle. Often they had sung It to
gether. To prove to her that there was no
reason to be concerned about him be
started to sing the old nieit dy.
Trivial? Under ordinary circuin
stances trivial, but now It was the out
burst of the holiest Impulse a boy cau
know. Surely the augels in heaven
must have heard and changed that
roistering song Into n paean of praise.
The song faltered, ceased.
Somehow Grady's voice would break
Jn spite of him; the brave Hps twitch
ed; tho light died out of the boy's blue
eyes.
Well? How better could a boy die?

Increase In the salaries paid teach
ers In the Oregon City schools was
grunted Wednesday night by the
Hoard of Directors at a meeting held
In the parlor of the Commercial Club.
Before action was taken, the directors
listened to statements of Miss Esther
Johnson, assistant principal of the
High School; Miss Marjorle Caufleld,
who appeared for the teachers In the
EuHtham buiiulng, and Urs. Gussie L.
Hull, representing the pedagogues of
the Iturclay school. The three teach
ers iimde a concise statement of the
Increased cost of living and presented
their arguments for an Increase.
As a result of the conference, which
was held at the instance of the di
rectors, the teachers having been In
vited to send a delegation to the
board, the following scale for grade
teacher was decided upon:
Klrst year, $55: second year, $00;
third year (maximum), $05.
The teacher who will benefit the
coming school year through the maxi
mum salary are Mrs. Estella Salis
bury, Miss Marjorle Caufleld, Mrs.
Pearl G. Cartlldge, Mrs. Helen Grlsez,
Miss Anna Smith, Miss Roma Staf
ford and Miss Nleta Harding.
The following teachers will receive
$10 during the coming year: Marcla
Romig. Maude Mason, Christobel Jew-
ett and Mrs. Gussie L. Hull. j
All the new grade teacher will re
ceive the minimum scale of $55. No
change was made In the minimum
rate, but the maximum was raised
from $0 to $H5.
In the High School the teachers who
may be re-elected will be given in
crease of $5 a month, and will be paid
$75. New High School teachers will
receive $70.
The salary of Miss Esther Johnson,
assistant principal of the High School,
was Increased from $925 to $1000 per
annum, and that of Miss Ida Mae
Smith, Instructor In domestic science
and art, from $70 to $75 per month.
The directors will hold another
meeting 'next Saturday night and will
probably fill existing vacancies In the
corps of teachers at that time.
FOR COUNTY SCHOOLS
Several of the districts in the coun
ty have elected teacher for the en
suing year and others will do so this
week. The directors of he Mllwaukie
school have elected all the old corps
of grade teachers excepting Miss Albe

Affirming Judge Knowles, of Wallowa
County, In the case of the state
against E. T. Schleur, appellant, the
Supreme Court, In an opinion wrltteu
by Justice Moore and concurred In

under the Home Rule Amendment"
an Incorporated city or town cannot,
without having a favorable election by
legal voters, through Its City Council,
pass an ordinance allowing the sale
of liquor for beverage purposes when
the county within which that city or
town Is located Is "dry."
"Giving to each word of the amend

titled," write Jus'lce Moore, "it will
be seen that while the legal voter of
every city and town are authorized to
license or prohibit the sale of intoxi
cating liquor therein, the clause, but
such municipality shall within It lim
it be subject to the provisions of the

HOLDS UP 2; ESCAPES
JOHN FERGUSON PLEADS WITH
DESPERADO FOR TWENTY
FIVE MINUTES.
A masked highwayman held up John
Ferguson, a well-known resident of
Oregon City, and another man at
Fifteenth and Washington streets ear
ly today. The highwayman made no
attempt to rob either, but kept his
pistol pointed at Ferguson twenty-five
minutes. The iatter was the first one
stopped by the desperado. While he
was explaining to the would-be Job
ber that he had no money, the other
man came up, and the highwayman
halted him. Both were compelled to
stand with their hands held up for
about fifteen minutes, when the last
man to arrive bolted and eseaped In
the shadow of a hedge fene.
He ran down to Main street and
gave the alarm. Policemen Green and
Cook hurried toward Washington
street, and on the way met Ferguson,
who said the highwayman had fled.
The police think the highwayman
probably was trying to protect a com
panion who had entered or was at
tempting to enter a residence in the
neighborhood.
FINE PAPER EXHIBIT
IS PROMI
PROMOTION BUILDING TO BE
READY FOR USE NEXT
WEEK.
The promotion building of the Com
mercial Club will be finished the last
of the week and part of the exhibits
will be put in place Monday. The
building, although not large, hag suf
ficient floor space for a display that
will give the visitor an idea of the
agricultural, horticultural, mineral and
manufactured products of Clackamas
County. .
B. T. McBain, superintendent of the
Willamette Paper Mills, notified Sec
retary Lazelle, of the Commercial
Club, Wednesday that his company
had prepared several rolls of paper
for exhibition in the new building.
Owing to the fact that the average
rolls of paper weigh from 12.000 to 18,
000 pounds, Mr. McBain has had sev
eral small roll made.
The woolen mill also have prom
ised fine exhibits, showing the process
of making cloth.
Don't Experiment With a Cough
When Dr. Bell's Pine-Tar-Honey has
been used by millions of people for
sixteen years with a steady increasing
demand. Look for the Bell on the
Bottle. Geo. A. Harding, Druggist.
Workmen spare that tree, was, in
substance, what Mrs. Adam Wilkin
son, who Uvea on Main street near
Twelfeth, said to a gang of men em
ployed by Moffatt St Parker, when the
work of removing a large maple on
the sidewalk In front of her home
was started Wednesday morning. The
man paid little heed to her for a
time, but she was so persistent that
finally the foreman appealed to the
City Attorney, who ordered the fork
continued. Then Mrs. Wilkinson ap
plied to J. E. Hedges, the attorney,
but before Mr. Hedges could sue out
a restraining order, the tree had been
so seriously mutilated it was not
worth saving. The lawyer, however,
being convinced that the rights of
Mrs. Wilkinson had been Infringed
upon had photographs of the tree and
workmen taken, to he used in a dam
age suit which he will file against
the city.
The tree, which was an old one, but
In perfect condition, has caused all
sort of trouble. Its roots, gnarled
and moss-covered, had spread In all
direction above the surface of the
earth, and Interfered with the laying
of concrete sidewalk, which had been
ordered by the Council. A a result,
the tree was ordered removed, but
Mrs. Wilkinson did not know anything
of the order until the menarrlved to
.do the work. The maple, which' Is
just within the curb, Is one of the
landmarks of the city, and, aside
from the dense shade It furnlsned,
Mrs. Wilkinson did not wish it re
moved for sentimental reasons.
Mr. Hedge declare that the city
had no right to have the tree de
stroyed, and says his client has good
ground for damages. He asserts that
It was not necessary that It be re
moved to lay the pavement, and that
as long as the tree did not obstruct
the sidewalk the wishes of Mrs. Wil
kinson should have been granted.
The Council also ha ordered the
removal of a tree in front of the home
of Mr. J. H. Walker on Washington
street near Seventh. Mr. Hedges
has been employed In this case, and
will apply for a restraining order today.
