ENLARGEMENT OF STORE
IS
Structure at 10th and Main
To be Improved; Residence
For Ralph Parker Planned.
The John Knapp building at Tenth
and Main streets, occupied by the C.
C. Store, is to be enlarged. Twenty
five feet of frontage on Main street
is to be added, ad the addition will
extend the full 85 feet in length of the
present seructure.
The addition will take in the terri
tory of the Hopp harness shop and
the Hart Photograph studio. The C.
C. Store wil loccupy the remodeled
C. Store w-ill occupy the remodeled
take the upper floor over the old build
ing, which is at present used by sev
eral lodges. It is known as Knapps
hall. A plate glass front is to be in
stalled in the new structure.
Fred White, of this city, was the ar
chitect for the old Knapp building,
which was erected in 1904. Construe
tion -was begun in August of that year
and the structure completed by the
end of the year.

C. C. Store, has been negotiating for
some time for the addition, and will
enable the company to carry a much
larger stock than the present building
allows.

sections of the city.
Local High School
Beats Willamette
Basketeers 11 to 5
That the Oregon City high school
will develop a speedy basketball team
was the indication of their first pre
season game with the Willamette In
dependents Wednesday night. The
game, resulting in a 11 to 6 score with
the locals on the heavy end, was
played at the O. C. H. S. gym.
Oregon City lead the tally from the
beginning. Considering the fact that
it is the first time they have p'ayed
together in a real contest, their team
work was good. The game was com
paratively fast, though the locals had
the chance to gain in speed because
of the heavier weight of their oppon
ents. The lineups were: Oregon-City: Sul
livan and Losh, f; Laurs and Eby, g;

ents: Schneir "and Junken, f; Zadni

Sheriff Wilson Is
Found Not Guilty
Sheriff W. J. (Wilson was found
not guilty by the circuit court jury
at the conclusion of hjs two-day
trial Thursday afternoon. The jury
retired at 3:34 p. m., and took 17
minutes to return a verdict. Wil
son, was charged on indictment
from the grand jury, of larceny by
bailee. Judge George W. Stapleton
of Portland, sat on the case.
Testimony of the state's star wit
ness in the trial of Sheriff W. J. Wil-!
son for larceny, was practically- im-1
peached by the prosecution's own wit- i
nesses on both direct and cross exam- j
ination.
The case against the sheriff of j
Clackamas county, charging him with '
larceny by bailee, opened Wednesday ;
morning with Judge G. W. Stapleton
of Portland, presiding at the request
of Judge J.. U. Campbell of the local j
court. H. E. Meads, game warden for j
this district and former deputy sheriff i
under Wilson gave tbe opening testi-
mony, tending to show that tools in a .
a car stolen from C- E. Moulton, Port-1
land plumber, came into Wilson's pos- j
session and that the sheriff refused
to turn them over to the owner, say
ing that there "weren't any."
According to Mead's statement,
Moulton's car was found near Oswego
March 4, 1920 and brought to Oregon I
City. The same night, he stated, he,
Sheriff Wilson and County Assessor j
W. B. Cooke, at the Sheriffs request, i
put the tools into the court house. .
This it was alleged was the last seen
of them.
ACT IS DENIED
Later, on the stand, Cooke stated
that he had not aided in the removal ;
of the tools, and had only seen one j
pipe cutter that he could remember. I
Cooke was called by the state and j
District Attorney Stipp intimated that
from testimony on the stand, the as
sessor had not given an entire account
of the matter when called before the
grand jury. The defense recalled the
positive statements of Meads that
Cooke had aided in taking the tools
from the car.
Meads testimony was to the effect
that after the sheriff told him that
their were no tools, Moulton took his
car and drove to Portland, leaving
about 9:30 a. m.
C. H. Elston, deputy sheriff of Os
wego, stated that he had seen the car
in OregoD city after the noon hour
and that there were tools in the ton
neau answering the general descrip
tion of those alleged taken by th
sheriff. The statement was made up
on his being called by the defense af
ter his testimony as a state witness.
Sheriff George Alexander of Washing
ton county testified that he had seen
the car in Oregon City, with tools in
it, after the time that according to
Meads, it hai been taken to Portland.
MOULTON TESTIFIES
. Moulton, owner of the machine, call
ed for the state, was not positive of
the hour, but stated definitely that lie
had left before noon. On cross exam
ination he stated that he had no per
sonal marks on the tools by which to
identify them.
The state rested its case at 3:46 p.
m. Defense immediately moved for
dismissal upon the ground that no
evidence had been introduced to show
that the tools found In the stolen car
were Moulton's and further that there
was no evidence to prove that Wilson
tookthem, other than that they might
have been placed in a position where
he could have taken them. In over
ruling the motion for dismissal. Judge
Stapleton held that the circumstantial
evidence regarding the identity of the
tools was sufficient to warrant sub
mission to the jury, but warned the
state that its case was weak in that
little proof was given to the effect
that Wilson had taken the tools, or
ever had had them in his possession
personally.
MOTION DENIED
The prosecution moved for the ex
clusion of the defense's witnesses from
the court room, but the court over
ruled the motion upon the ground that
this privilege in regard to the state's
witnesses had not been allowed the
defense. Alexander and Elston were
the only witnesses examined by the
defense and the case was continued
until today.
The state's witnesses included
Meads, Elston, Cook and Moulton. The
defense has about 20 more witnesses
to call, a number of whom are to tes
tify regarding the sheriffs character.
In the opening statement the defense
indicated that an attempt would be
made to impeach the testimony of
the state's witnesses, but the eontro
dictory statements of the state's wit
nesses precluded action by the de
fense.
The empanneling of the jury occu
pied practically the ' entire morning.
The jurors are:
J. L. Adams, Molalla; C. W. Swal
low, Gladstone; W. E. Cromer, Logan;
John Lowry, West Linn ; Issac Pursi
ful, Oregon City, Route 1; Thos. E.
Anderson, Cams; Fred Spangler, Car

The Year's History
Students of history used to learn names and dates
and lists of battles. Now they investigate social and
economic tendencies affecting the life of the people. And
so the mere list of events that happened in 1 92 1 does not
throw much light on the progress the world made in that
period. The real question is, What truths did the
people learn?
The fact that the leading nations sent delegates to z.
peace conference at Washington is hailed as one of the
great events of history. It may be so. Many such con
ferences have been held before, but they blew up in a fog
of polite speeches and nothing done. Apparently better
results will flow from this assembly.
The mere meeting of these delegates did not mean
much, if they brought with them all the hostility and self
ishness of previous relations. But if the nations have
begun to perceive that the awful burden of war could be
done away with, then a landmark of history has been set
up.
Another landmark has apparently been erected in
Russia. That unfortunate country undertook to make
an experiment which fanatics and visionaries have long
desired. To avoid the abuses of wealth, they took away
the incentives that induce people to toil and save, to see
if men would not be happier to have all things in com
mon. From the depths of their misery the people of Rus
sia now see that it pays to reward industry and efficiency
and energy. The world should have learned therefrom
during 1921a lesson that will endure for centuries.
During 1921, America steadily recovered from the
shock of war. Europe, fettered by old hostilities and
jealousies and class feeling, has legged behind. But a
year that saw new peace hopes created and false idea of
economics exploded, will go down to history as a notable
epoch of time.

BRIDGE CONTRACTOR TO
ENTER POLITICAL FIGHT
Edward Olds, bridge contractor,
who is completing two bridges span
ning the Long Tom river in the Eu-gene-Floriston,
(Oregon), highway,
was in Oregon City Wednesday.
Mr. Olds, who has been a bridge
contractor for the past 30 years, says
this is to be one of the most attrac
tive highways in the state when com
pleted. After going over the pass
: much of the country is level and
j easily cleared and the soil adapted
j for farming and gardening. Those
having homesteads in that country,
who have cleared enough of their land
j to try out the soil are much encour
j aged especially since the highway will
pass close by.
One of the bridges now under con
struction is
90 feet long,
while the
smaller bridge is 60 feet. Both are
covered, and are wooden, except for
the abutments, which are concrete.
Construction was begun September
30, and they will be ready within a
short time. Mr. Olds has a crew of
five men finishing these bridges. For
: the first time since starting as a
i bridge contractor, he had his first ex
1 perience this winter in losing any
j false bridge work. This was due to
I the swift and high water of the Long
Tom river, recently overflowing Its
banks during the storm that visited
I that section. The timber and iron
' were later found in debris and brought
back to the site of the bridges and
used, as they were not damaged. These
bridges
have been constructed 25
miles west of Junction City.
Ag the new nighway jg jn the coast
range WOrk has not been retarded
during the winter, except for a few
days of snow. a comfortable camp
hag been erected for the men, and

which nag greatly benefited her health
she has been in camp with her hus-
hand sinno OotrYhpr. nnd PYnppto trt ra.
j turn to her home at Oak Grove at the
i conclusion of the work there.
Mr. Olds says he has caught more
fish while building these bridges than
i at any time in his life, and his spare
' time has been devoted to this sport.
The fish were caught, in the Long Tom
river, and few went under twelve
inches. He was able to supply the
camp with fish during the season, and
Mrs. Olds has also proven an expert I
at angling since going to the Long !
, Tom river, and added her share of
" fine mountain trout for the various j
meals in camp. , i
When appearing in Oregon City a 1
few days ago, and visiting his tonsor- J
ial artist friend, the latter exclaimed j
"Hello, here comes the son of Adam!" ;
1 This was on account of the "mop" of !
re air that Ed had grown since be- j
lug iu uauiu.

Correct His Vision
Every time we see a school
boy straining his eyes at his
work, we wonder if his teachers
and parents realize under what
a handicap he labors.
If you are responsible for a
child, it is your duty to see that
his eyes are in proper condition.
If there is .any doubt, bring
him in to us and we)ll see that
they are properly examined and
the defects corrected so he can
do his work normally, thus mak
ing better grades with ease and
comfort.
Eyesight is priceless.
Guard it welt.
