ecution! SALEM, Ore.. Feb. 9. (Special)
Representative Sehucbel despite the
ruling of the chair that he was out of
order kept the floor today and prob
ably prevented the abolition of the
slate industrial school for girls. The
Joint ways and means committee
failed to report on the bill making an
appropriation for the school, and Hus
ton nuked that the bill making the ap
propriation for the boys' Industrial
school bo amended so as to provldo
1-19.000 for a girls' school.
Representative Porter In the chair
ruled the motion out of order and Hus
ton acqulecsed. Sehucbel Insisted he
was not out of order and finally the
house decided to ask the Joint ways
and means committee to Introduce a
bill providing on appropriation for the
girls' school without recommendation
so the house could vote upon It. It Is
believed the measure will be passed
by a small vote.
The Dlmlck .memorial to congress
asking that postal savings bank de
posits bo used as a baslB for a rural
credit system was adopted by the sen
ate. It provides for an Increase of In
terest to depositors from 2 to 3 per
cent. All senators voted for the me
morial, and It was declared by several
to be the most feasible plan offered
for establishing the system.
The Clackamas senator made a
strong fight for the Moser bill, giving
the governor the light to direct the
attorney general to conduct prosecu
tions for violations of the prohibition
law when It became apparent that dis
trict attorneys were not doing tbetr
duty. He said for the senate not to
pass the measure would mean that it
bad withheld the vote ot confidence of
the governor. The bill waa referred
to the Judiciary committee to deter
mine Its constitutionality.

FLAG IS PROTESTED
WASHINGTON SENDS NOTES TO
BOTH GERMANY AND
GREAT BRITAIN
WASHINGTON, Fob. 10. The Unit
ed States government today, sent a
note to Great Britain, making friendly
observations on the use by British
ships of neutral flags, and at tho same
time dlBpotched a communication to
Germany, Inquiring what steps would
be taken by German naval command
ers to vorlfy the identity of shlpB fly
ing neutral flaps in the recently pro
claimed zones of war around England
and Ireland.
While the Lusitanta Incident is not
mentioned, the representations to
Greot Britain are based on the state
ment of the British foreign office, Jus
tifying the use of neutral flags by her
merchantmen to escape capture.
The American government . points
out how frequent and continued use
of this Btrategem might cast doubt on
the character of vessels really entitled
to fly the American flag and produce
dangers to which neutral ships ought
not to be subjected on the high seaB
and In unblockaded waters.
The Introduction ot the submarine
Into warfare produces Issues no cov
ered by any existing declarations of
International law, but the United
States has made it clear, It i under
stood, that an attack on a vessel fly
ing the American flag, without first
ascertaining that such use was ficti
cious, could not but be viewed grave
ly by the American government and
bring about serious complications.
Marion county authorities have pro
posed to other Willamette valley coun
ties a plan to erect sign boards at the
county lines to designate to tourists
on the trains the location ot the di
visions In the Willamette valley.

OREGON CITY TO
VOTE ON WATER
COUNCIL MONDAY NIGHT TAKES
FIRST NECESSARY STEP
FOR ELECTION
ANDRESEN, CHAIRMAN OF SOUTH
FORK COMMITTEE. TELLS PLANS
Every Councilman, Excepting Hackett,
Votet for Retolutlon Propoted
Amendment Included In
Lengthy Document
The voters of Oregon City and
West Linn will vote on the South Fork
water project on the same day, March
3.
The first legal step toward calling
the election was taken Mondny night
by the council, when a resolution, con
taining the complete amendment and
calling the election, was read the first
time and passed with only one oppos
ing vote, that of Councilman Hackett.
March 3, the date of the West Linn
election, was selected by the com
mittee so that ihe results in one town
could not possibly have any effect on
the other.
Chairman Andresen, Engineer Rands
and Attorney L. Stlpp were present at
the council meeting and Mr. Andresen
answered several questions asked by
the councilmen and made a short talk,
explaining several of the principal
points In the document.
The proposed amendment, now pre
pared and approved, was read and a
copy furnished to each member of the
council. It provides that the build
ing of the pipeline shall be done under
the direction of the South Fork Water
commission, composed of William An
dresen, W. A. Long, M. D. Latourette,
L. L. Porter and B. T. McBain. A
monthly report and financial state
ment Is called for and a bond of $10,
000 for every member of the commit
tee and Its secretary and treasurer Is
provided. Although West Linn will
become a partner in the project if the
bond Issues are approved, the name
ot the town across the river Is not
mentioned in the document In order to
makeJt legally water-tight.
TheVesolution, including the char
ter amendment is printed on page two.

That the Grernpolnt aawmlil, for
merly oprraied under the nam of the
Ortg-on City UutuUr h Manufactur
ing company, may be operated before
the end of the summer after four
years of Idleness. Is evident from the
detrlopments of lb Uat month.
Thn properly, whlrh ha an Inven
tory value of 1 101. (KM). I controlrd by
the First National bank al F. J
Meyer, ranhler of the bank. I truatee.
The bank secured control of the mill
through a rhatel mortgage several
years ago when It was closed for the
last time.
The fart that the plant I located
tome dtatanre from a large body of
aiarkelable timber ha alwayt been
the principal hlnderanre to the oper
ation of the plant, but with the com
pletion of the Willamette Valley
Southern, which tape tho great forett
belt In the eattern part of Clackamas
and Marlon counties, enough timber
it within eaiy reach to keep the mill
buay for an Indefinite period In the
opinion of those in touch with the tit
uatlon. The terminal yards of the
new electric line Join the mill prop
erty. Another suggestion has been made
which. If carried Into execution, would
bring timber from Tillamook county
to Oregon City. The extension of tne
Pnrituml- Ftueene and Eastern. Com
pleted last Saturday, which connects
the local tupe? plans with Oswego,
runs within a short distance of the
Tillamook road. A branch to connect
these two roadi could be built easily
and logs from the coast country could
be diimned Into the Willamette here
at a comparatively small cost, say
those Interested In the local plant
It la known that the First National
bank has received several offers from
northwest lumbermen during the
month nf January. The mill has been
for sale for some time, but owing to
the difficulty ot obtaining a good qua!
itv of loes. DroiDoctlve buyers have re
fused to take over the properly. The
price asked by the bank Tor tr.e prop
erty has not been made public.
The property on which the mill Is
built is the property of the Crown Wil
lamette Paper company but the mill
holds a lease on the property. The
mill has a long stretch of river trout
age. Th entilnment of the plan Is con
sidered as modern aa any lu the Wil
lamette valley. It has a capacity o.
75 nnn feet a inv and the sash and
door factory In connection wnu l!.e
mill can turn out 300 doors daily. Tht
machinery Is valued over $70 000.
The nlan was built a number of
years ago by local business men and
ran flva venrs steadily. With the
Southern Pacific and the Portland
Rniiwnv i.icht & Power company on
one side and the river on the other, a
cheap and convenient road to a mar
ket in Portland was always found.

PLANT STARTED UP
COMMERCIAL CLUB ENDEAVORS
TO SECURE REVIVAL OF
INDUSTRY
PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 10. So anx
ious are the people of Oswego for the
enlivening of industry that the Com
mercial club of Oswego has written
aBking the Portland Commercial club
to use Its Influence to Induce the Ore
gon Iron & Steel company to submit
the lowest bid for water pipe to be
bought by the city, also to secure
greater Interest on the part of the
people generally spending money for
home products bo that the cosh will be
kept at home.
A letter from Arthur McVoy, secre
tary of the Oswego club, reads In part:
"Our plant has been closed since
June 25, 1914, and many hands have
had a hard time to pull through, and
now the dark clouds seem to lift and
our people are Just waiting to see if
they city fathers will help to keep that
$200,000 at home. I believe If all will
Join In and request the Oregon Iron
Steel company to do the best to bid
the lowest, that they will endeavor to
do se and the money will be like the
bread cast on the waters, after many
days It will return, so I trust all good
citizens will take notice and help to
keep money at home and faithfully
do their part to patronize home industries."
