Protests against the design of the
new Willamette river bridge, were
withdrawn Wednesday by the city
council and board of governors of the
local Commercial club.
At a special session Wednesday af
ternoon, the council passed a resolu
tion withdrawing the complaint made
about two weeks ago, and the board
of governors followed with similar ac
tion. The protests were withdrawn
following the settlement of difficul
ties over the plans. Copies are to be
forwarded to both the U. S. Engineers
and the highway commission.
NAVIGATORS PROTEST
The protests were the outgrowth
of the contention of the river naviga
tors that the bridge would obstruct
traffic during the high water period.
An agreement was reached how
ever, to allow the present plans to be
carried out as any Interference would
have prevented the erection of the
bridge, and the industrial plants, al
though not satisfied wita the outcome
of affairs, signified their willingness
to withstand the loss due to a tieup
of on the average of 10 days a year
rather than block the building of the
new span.
DESIGN NOT LIKED
- The span is designed so that during
the periods of high water it is im
possible for the boats to use the west
channel which is the only place where
they can get up the river, but the
highway commission stated that any
movement to force a change would
result in the state's withdrawing from
the work which would tie up the con
struction indefinitely.

30,000 Fish Will be
Planted Next Year
Thirty thousand trout will be plant
ed in Milk dreefc next year, according
to the assurance received here from
the U. S. Department of Fisheries by
"Babe" Elliott. An application for
fish to be placed here was filed some
time ago, and it is expected that the
first shipment will be forthcoming
during the spring of 1922.
Fish have been planted here through
the efforts of private parties and Mr.
Elliott has been one of the prime
movers in the work of replenishing
the Clackamas county streams. No
charge Is made for the fish by the
government but the expense of trans
portation from the Clackamas hatch
ery must be paid by private subscrip
tion secured among the anglers inter
ested in this work.
(During the past eight' years, a total
of 275,000 fish have been planted in
the creeks of the county, according
to Mr. Elliott It is computed that
from forty to sixty per cent of the
fish planed mature, which will mean
that due to this activity, the fish in
the streams of the county have been
increased 100,000, even by a conserva
tive estimate.
Uniform charges for the accomoda
tions of the automobile parks through
out the Wilamette valley, is the pur
pose of a movement being sponsored
by Oregon City. City Attorney O. D.
Eby is in correspondence with twenty
cities throughout the state to ascer
tain what charges are now being made
at municipal camping grounds, and to
determine whether or not a meeting
of representatives of the different
councils and boards will be feasible
in order to consider this proposition.
PARK FUND OPPOSED
During the process of outlining the
Oregon City budget for the coming
year there was some opposition to the
including of a $600 fund to go .toward
the upkeep of what is at present a
free park. It was maintained that
no tourist should be adverse to pay
ing a nominal fee for the accomoda
tions provided.
Replies from a number of the mun
icipalities have already been received,
and' the indication is that there is a
general movment toward charging the
tourists a small amount in order to
aid tha upkeep of the parks. One
official even goes so far as to state
that it is the belief in this community
that a park at which a charge is made
proves more popular than a free park.
The purpose of the survey is to
secue a uniform charge rate over this
entire district so that tourists will
not feel that they are mistreated when
they go from one town to another, and
run into a camp-ground which makes
a charge.
LETTERS SENT OUT
Letters have been sent to The Dal
les, Astoria, Hood River, Salem, Cor
vallis, Woodburn, Eugene, Cottage
Grove, Roseburg, Drain, Medford,
Grants Pass, Ashland, St. Helens, Mo
Minnville, Sheridan, Forest Grove,
Hillsboro, Albany and Silverton.
If the holding of a meeting is found
to be impractical an efofrt is to be
made by correspondence to arrive at
a uniform charge for park-privileges.
It is felt than in this way, without
subjecting the tourist to varied condi
tions in the different cities, the prob
lem of paying for the upkeep of mun
icipal camping grounds can, for the
greatest part be solved.
STATE HOUSE, Salem, Dec. 21.
(Special). A bill, providing for the
financing of the 1925 Exposition
through a tax on gasoline was passed
by the house at their session here to
night. The vote was 45 to .14.
The bill provides for the measure's
submission to the people at the elec
tion next May. It is to be presented
to the senate Thursday and from all
indications will be speedily ratified.
The gasoline tax, as a means for fi
nancing the world fair, is a compro
mise measure, envolved after the gen
eral property tax and the income tax
measures ended in a deadlock.
The house has' started work upon
the highway bills, and discussion up
on this subject will probably require
a day, or perhaps a day and a- half.
Since no other measures the to be in
troduced, it is expected that a speed
adjournment will follow x the comple
tion of the action upon the road measures.

Well Known Couple
Married Tuesday
The marriage of Miss Mary A. Scott
to. William J. Wilson, both of this
city, was solmnized at the parsonage
of Rev. H. G. Edgar Tuesday evening
at 8 o'clock. Only a few close friends
of the contracting parties witnessed
the ceremony. The announcement of
the nuptials came as a great surprise
to the many friends of the bride and
groom, as both are very well known.
The bride is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. E. W. Scott, 1224 Third St.,
this city, and she is a very popular
and charming young lady. For the
past several years she has been chief
operator for the Pacific Telephone and
Telegraph Co., here, and in that ca
pacity has conducted one of the most
efficient telephone boards on the
coast. She has handed in her resigna
tion to the company taking effect im
mediately. Mr. Wilson, the groom has spent
most of his life in Clackamas county
and for the past 20 years, has been
one of the chief lieutenants for the
Mitchell, Lewis and Staver Co. He
is now head of the firm here known as
the W. J. Wilson Co., automobiles and
farm machinery, which is a branch of
the Mitchell, Lewis and Staver firm
of the northwest. The groom, known
as "Billy" to his many acquaintances
here is a prominent Elk and has taken
an active interest in civic affairs of
this section, being quite popular
among his numerous rural customers
over Clackamas county.
Mr. and Mrs. Wilson left immediate
ly for Seattle, where they will spend
several days on their honeymoon
They will return to Oregon City and
occupy the charmingly furnished cot
tage of the groom at Eighth and Wash
ington streets. The couple will be at
home to their many friends after the
first of the year. .

Old Resident Dies
Of Heart Trouble
Mrs. Margaret Mulvey, widow of the
late Michael Mulvey, prominent resi
dent of Oregon City, died suddenly at
her home at 713 John Quincy Adams
streets Tuesday evening about 6:30
o'clock from heart trouble. Mrs. Mar
garet Smith, daughter of Mrs. Mulvey
was at her bedside when she died.
Mrs. Mulvey was apparently in the
best of health during the day, and
about 4 o'clock complained of pain in
the region of the heart .The family
physician was summoned, and Ms.
Mulvey soon improved, but was strick
en again at 6 o'clock, dying shortly
after.
Throu j'Tiout Clackamas county Mrs.
Mulvey ps? favorably known by her prisoners are confined in the larger
were failinp; to curb what vs chats- i m-.y friends. S'w of a kindly ! main cell but denied access to the
Discovery that the hinges of the
main corridor door of the county jail
had been nearly sawed in two, pre
vented what the authorities believe
was scheduled to be a delivery Wed
nesday night.
The six prisioners who are being
held in the jail, were confined to an
interior cell Wednesday evening, the
run of the jail, allowed to men being
held on long sentences or awaiting
trial will be indefinitely denied.
Sheriff W. J. Wilson received a tip
from a party whose name he refuses
to divulge, that a general delivery
was planned. When he took the eve
ning meal down to the prisones, he
noticed that the barred door which -stands
between liberty and the in
terior of the jail, swung with more
than its accustomed give at the
hinges. Examination showed that the
bolts which act as pivots had been
nearly severed, and a hard jerk, broke
dowa the door.
JAIL IS SEARCHED
- Although on the outside of this
there is a thin steel door to prevent
communication, it is possible, by us
ing a piece of stovewood as a pry, to
spring this sufficiently to allow a man,
to pass oat.
A prompt search of the jail and the
prisoners was made but failed to re
veal any saw-blades, which from the
character of the break, could have
been the only instrument used.
This is the second break that has
been nipped in! the bud during the
past two weeks. An attempt was made
to saw out the bars of the south-east
corner window of the "bull-pen" but
it was not successfully completed.
Wilson believes that the process of
sawing' the hinges on the main door
has been on for the past several days,
being done at night. From the condi
tion of the door, it is thought that
the escape was scheduled for Thurs
day. '
ESCAPE IS EASY
The county jail is notably an easy
place to escape from, and for the past
month a special deputy has been kept
in the office during the night to pre
vent a get-away. It is belived how
ever, that had the plans of the prison
ers not been discovered, the. escape,
could have been made quietly with
out his notice.
If the county budget, as now pre
pared. Is" sanctioned by the taxpayers,
a fund will be provided next year for
the rebuilding of the jail. In the
mean time watch upon the prisoners
will be redoubled.
The officers were nnable to. fasten
the guilt for the attempted escape
upon any one particular man. There
are several in confinement serving
moonshine sentences, and two await
ing trial on charges that are not ex
ceptionally serious.
- ONE IS SUSPECTED
One prisoner, who is suspected, will
probably be placed in solitary con
finement during the nights hereafter.
Due to the design of the present
jail, it has been the policy of the
sheriff to lock only the main doors of
the corridor, and allow the men in
confinement to" occupy the hallway
within the jail and the two main cells.
There is only one "tank" or smaller
cell used, for solitary confinement and
because of the poor ventilation, men.
are eeldom put there. At present the
