Two Drafted Alert
Grover Cleveland Bergdoll, called to the defense
of his country, ran away. He is now 'a fugitive from
justice. No matter what he may do with the rest of his
life, the brand of coward and deserter is upon him for
ever. Honest men will despise him wherever he goes
Loyal women will hold him in aversion. Try to conceal
it with what braggadocio he-will, shame is his portion.
Russell Gross, called by the draft when Bergdoll
failed to answer, "forced into service ahead of his turn
by the slacker Bergdoll," answered his summons
promptly, went overseas with his detachment, served
honorably and died a hero's death in the Argonne. His
citation for bravery records that "he displayed great
heroism and self-sacrifice, and his example of unselfish
ness was an inspiration to the other men in his platoon."
In his honor, Overlook Post of the American Legion in
Philadelphia has changed its name to that of the dead
hero, and is planning a special memorial to him.
One died, with a hero's heart. Men unite to honor
him. His mother, however sorrowful she may be, can
hold her head high to have borne such a son. One lives,
with a coward's soul. Men scoff at his name, and his
mother must try for the rest of her life to explain away
his shame and her own.

PORTLAND, Or., June 29.
Dissatisfied with the money market
as reflected in the quotations offered
fo $1,500,000 of state road bonds, the
highway commission decided to call
a halt on new work for the time be
ing.
"The 'commission," dictated Chair
man- Booth, to the official stenog
rapher, putting the matter into the
record, "will advertise no further
work done this season, except in full
filment of promises to counties from
which the commission cannot be re
leased."
Thus tne commission prepared to
shorten sail. If the commission ad
heres to this policy it will not ma
terially effect the road program, for
several hundred miles have beeu
placed under contract already thi3
year and it will simply mean post
poning the placing of more new work
under contract for a few months. Thit;
is the "big year" in highway con
struction in Oregon; the engineering
force is rushed and the. department
has about all it can handle. Mean
while, after a few months the money
market will improve.
The half dozen culverts for unit
No. 1 on the Mount Hood loop were
awarded after being held up from the
day before. Award of the brid(ge con
tract at Oregon City is expected just
as soon as some details can be ar
ranged.
July 29 and 30 have been set at the
dates when settlers who are visitine
Oregon on the Homeseeker's Special,
under the auspices of the Oregon
State Chamber of Commerce, will
visit Clackamas county
This announcement was made Wed
nesday by the state chamber. The
party will arrive in Portland July 29
It will consist o fover. 300 persons
who are being shown over Oregon,
in an effort of the realtors to start
an exodus to the Pacific Northwest.
From Portland the settlers will divide
into smaller groups and those inter
ested in each particular aistrict will
visit that part of the country in the
vicinity of Portland. The parties will
eave on the 29th from Portland, meet
ing again in Salem on the evening
of the 30th.
The homeseekers will be accom
panied from Omaha, where they leave
July 20, by Gordon J. Tayior, special
representative from Clackamas county
who is being sent undPr the auspices
of the local reaity board. The route
to be traveled through the state by the
first trainload of settlers who 'are
scheduled to arrive from the middle
west for an inspection of the stata's
agrieutural resources, was arranged
to include the representative districts
of the state in the limited time al
lowed under the homeseeker's ticket.
twenty-one days. The matter has been
under advisement since the Land Set
tlement Conference held in Portland
June 7, and every effort has been
made to route the party over the
state in the most effective way.
While the itinerary in general will
be followed aa outlined, it was an
nounced that it was subject to change
in some instances, inasmuch as the
routing of the party through a few
districts would be governed by the
number of settlers who made up the
party

A resolution asking the state high
way commission to establish as a
policy the preferential employment
of American citizens upon its highway
work will be introduced at the state
convention of the American Legion
in Eugene by the local post, Willam
ette Falls, number 5.
The resolution, which will be acted
upon by the local post at its meet
ng Monday night is founded on the
contention of the legionaires that for
eigners are being- employed on the
road work in this vicinity. With the
country in such an economic condi
tion that work is scarce, the feeling
is current in the local post that the
ex-service men and the citizens of this
country should be given the first call
upon the jobs. Nothing is asked by
the ex-soldiers for the man who i?
incompetent and who cannot hold i.
position, but their plea is for the effi
cient hard-working American, who du
to war conditions has been thrown, out
of employment.
Another resolution will also be ia-
troduced by the local post urging tha
state commander to make an annual
visit of all of the posts. This is pre
posed in order to keep the state of
ficers more fully in touch with the
activities of the legionaires over the
state.
Three deelgates from this city will

is to be held July 1 and 2. They are

E. B. Fitts of the Oregon Agricul
tural colege, in charge of the dairy ex
tension work, arrived in Oregon City
Monday to spend the week here. Mr.
Fitts is co-operating with the county
farm bureau in its program of im
provement of dairy herds. He is hold
ing a series of meetings with the
farmers designed to help them in
scientific methods of improvement of
their cattle.
Special emphasis is being laid upon
the matter of stock feeding, according
to Mr. Fitts. He attended the meet
ing of Pamona grange here Tuesday
and will spend the remainder of his
time visiting with the farmers and
conducting educational meetings.
Mr. Fitts has visited this territory
a number of times before and says he
notices considerable improvement on
the dairy farms. Yesterday, in com
pany with County Agent W. A. Holt,
he visited the dairy of Jacob Jose at
Clar?mont This ranch, according to
Mr. Fitts, is one of the best in the
county, modern methods of care of the
stock and sanitation being applied.
There is an increasing tendency on
the part of farmers to breed pure pre.l
cattle, says Mr. Fitts. A number of
the cackamas ranchers have some
pure breds and many are breeding
them.
The work of the dairy extension
service with which Mr. Fitts Is con
nected is financed by the agricultural
college with state and federal funds

said, to join the association of the
dealers.. These include the United .
