action of the currents In the river
which constantly fills up the boles as
20.00 fast aa the gravel Is removed, tbe sup-

from the river by a dredge and unload
ed Into a bunker on t9 river bank.
From the bank to the storage bunkers

No proaorutlun will follow the aeli
uro of iO gallons of whiskey by Klier
Iff Wlln.n and lieputy Froat early
Hunday morning. This wa the atal
ment Tuesday night of dlatrM Atlor
ney Hedge who declared that ther
bad been no crime committed.
Although the rasa will not bo
preaaed, the whlakey, valued at
1119 t0. was poured Into the river by
Hhertff Wllaon, acting on orders from
Justice of the I'eare Hlevrrs. Henry
Tucker, one of tho two men on the
wagon load of liquor Sunday mornliu,
says that the shipment wss his per
sonal property and Monday produced
a bill of sale.
County of fliers say that they wi.ru
Justified In destroying the liquor
which waa being aronght Into Oregon
City, contrary to the state local option
law. Coder this aet. all shipments of
liquor from wet to dry territory must
bear th name of the consignee, the
name of the consignor and the name
and addresa of tbe person ordering tbe
liquor and the kind and amount of
each package. Tbe 10 demijohns
found In the wagon, did not meet these
requirement, although four of the bU
bottle were labeled Mooae lodxe.
The whiskey waa taken to th north
side of the courthouse near tbe river
bank where Sheriff Wilson emptied
the demijohns. The order to pour
out the liquor was Issued by Justice
8iever upon tbe advice of District
Attorney Hedges.
A sweeping denial that the SO gal
lon of liquor confiscated by Sheriff
Wilson and Deputy Frost early Sun
day morning was going to tbe Moose
lodge, as an organization, and the as
sertion that never alnce It organiza
tion here liquor bad never been
brouRht Into the clubroom with the
knowledge of the officers, waa made
Monday by C. S. Noble, dictator of the
lodge.
Mr. Noble said that In case any
liquor had been brought to the club, It
wa brought here by the ludivldual
members and not by the lodge Itself.
He denied that targe shipment had
been received In tbe past and said be
sincerely regretted tbe publicity given
the entire affair. Mr. Noble was re
cently re-elected head of the local
branch of the order.
Henry Tucker, one of the two men
arrested with the load of liquor early
Sunday morning, produced a bill of
sale Monday from W. J. Van Schuyver
Ic company, which was made out to
himself and dated May 15. The total
value of the liquor, according to the
bill. Is $119.50.
No action was taken by the county
officials Monday. District Attorney
Hedges had no statement to make but
it is thought probable that the case
will be taken directly before the grand
Jury, which is now In session. Tbe of
ficers of the lodge may be made de
fendants If evidence showing that the
lodge as an organization sanctioned
the handling of tbe liquor. The grand
Jury will probably not complete Its
work until Wednesday.
Evidence of a senational character
Is hinted at by county officials. Testi
mony to the effect that tbe shipment
early Sunday morning was merely one
of a number of shipments said to be
in the hands of the county officials.
The arrest of Calvin Price and Hen
ry TiicVer, and the seizure of the liq
uor has proven to be the most talked
of case In Clackamas county for sev
eral months.

WASHINGTON, May 14. Recent
developments In the International sit
uation have revived discussion of the
proposal for the purchase by the Unit
ed States of Lower California from
Mexico. That this tongue of land Is
so separated from Mexico and so geo
graphically a part of the United States
coast line on the Pacific is the reason
assigned by early proponents of the
purchase.
The present day attraction is Mag-
dalena Ray, which Is of strategic value
to the United States, and possesses
one of the best harbors on the coast.
Lower California possesses vast min
eral wealth in gold, silver. Iron, cop
per land and other deposits. By irri
gation a vast portion of Us now value
less arid lands, could, it is thought, be
transformed Into agricultural land of
high value.
On the resumption of responsible
government In Mexico, It Is said here
that it Is not likely that proposals
looking to the purchase will be made.
They are 70 Year Old.
"For some time past my wife and
myself were troubled with kidney
trouble," writes T. B. Carpenter, Har-
risburg. Pa. "We suffered rheumatic
pains all through the body. The first
few doses of Foley Kidney Pills re
lieved us. After taking five bottle be
tween us we are entirely cured. Al
though we are both In the seventies
we are as vigorous as we were thirty
years ago." Foley Kidney Pills stop
sleep disturbing bladder weakness,
backache, rheumatism, dizziness,
swollen joints and sore muscles. Jones
