bridge be built over the lake on or
near the location of the old foot
bridge. That a sidewalk be constructed
along the west side of the highway
leading from the bridge which crosses
Johnson creek, north to the county
line, or over such portion of the dis
tance as is necessary.
That a foot bridge be constructed
along the west side of the bridge
across Johnson creek, and that school

Man Missing; One
Burned to Death In
Automobile Wreck
TOLEDDO, Ore., Aug. 3. Wallace
La Blanch was burned to death, John
Schaffer is missing and may have met
the same fate and Marvin Elkins was
slightly hurt when their automobile
ran off the road near Eddyville at 10:
30 last night and was wrecked, the de
molished machine burning after the
crash.
All three men resided in Independ
ence and were en route to Newport on
the coast when the accident occurred.
Elkins, cut above the head, is in an
irrational state here and is unable to
give a coherent account of the wreck.
(Deputy Sheriff Ted McElwain and
Coroner S. M. Carter left this morning
for the scene of the accident, which
occurred about seventeen miles north
of this place, to determine of Schaf
fer also was in the burned wreckage.
According to the disconnected story
of Elkins, who is still suffering from
shock and his Injuries, Schaffer was
driving the car when it suddenly left j
the grade of the road and plunged
down the embankment. '
The promulgation of regulations es
tablishing fire restrictions in Oregon
City and requiring that costruction
work of all kinds be done under a
modern system of municipally con
trolled permits, is to be considered by
the Oregon City council. Announce
ment of efforts to collect all avail
able data on regulations of this kind,
with the view to the drafting of a suit
able ordinance, was made by City At
torney O. D. Eby at an adjourned ses
sion of the council last evening.
Need Is Told Council
Henry M. Templeton, former coun
cilman, appeared before the city fa
thers, askig an investigation of the ad
visability of such an ordinance. He
recommended particular study to that
phase which would prevent the build
ing of commercial structures of a
hazardous nature which have a. tend
ency, through the fire menace they
present, to lower the value of adjacent
property.
Particular reference was made to
the recent Williams Brothers' barn
fire at Fifth and Washington streets,
with the indication that commercial
structures of this type should be reg
ulated by city ordinance.. It was point
ed out further that no- regulaions ex
isted and there was at present no way
to control the present fire menaces
The matter, Eb7 explained, has been
under consideration by the attorney's
office and an ordinance will perhaps
be drafted before the next regular
meeting date.
The Enterprise "Panned"
A short snappy discussion over a
recent editorial in The Morning En
terprise was started by Councilman
Metzner. The Enterprise had pointed
out the inefficiency attendant upon
the operation of the intersection traf
fic blocks at Tenth and Fourteenth on
Main street. Metzner roasted the ac
tion of the paper, stating that the
street commissioner was the most ef
ficient that the city had ever had and
that the council and the street commit
tee were responsible for the insalla
tion of the blocks. Councilman Bridg
es pointed out that there had been
some general comment regarding the
menace of the intersection signals to
traffic. Van Auken and Metzner de
manded a retraction and without fur
ther comment a motion "demanding
an editorial apology" on the part of
The Enterprise was passed.
Improvements Are Ordered
Ordinances were passed on final
reading providing for the construction
of a sewer in 'District 14, newly form
ed, Including the territory in Holmes
addition between Division and Wil
lamette streets, for the hard surfacing
of the alley in Block 4 between Main
and Water streets, and amending an
ordinance passed August 19, 1921, at
taching a penalty to the regulation
prohibiting persons with certain dis
eases from working in restaurants and
public places. The latter ordinance
had been inoperative because of lack
of a penal clause. The penalty was
fixed as a maiimu- fine of $25 with
a jail sentence of a maximum of 10
days. An ordinance providing for the
macadamizing of John Adams street
from Seventh "to Ninth and the con
struction of concrete walks and curbs
was passed on final reading.
Bond Offer Made
An offer of a premium of $164 on
the purchase of $8500 of municipal six
per cent bonds was made to the coun
cil by the Western Bond and Mortgage
company of Portland. The bond is
sue included runs about $9,000 but
the premium is offered only "on small
denominations. The company, BOwev;
er, will liquidate the entire issue. Te
matter was referred to the finance
committee and city attorney.
An ordinance prohibiting anyone
from opening or closing the doors of
the elevator was introduced. It was
pointed out that the operators com-
Dlained of persons interfering and
there was no law to cover the point.
Petition for the construction of a
foot bridge across the Abernethy In
conjuncton with the present wagon
bridge, was referred to the street com
mittee as was a protest signed by 46
names against the vacation of Third
street,' which at present forms an out
let for the south steps on the bluff.
A check for $50 from the P. R- L. &
P. was presented to the council in
payment for the services of the fire
dsnartmetit at Fernwood station a
month ago when one of the line s
freight cars was burned. The prompt
and efficient action of the department
was highly praised.

Wm. Waukum, 10th and . Jackson
streets, was drowned in the Willam
ette river shortly after three o'clock
Friday afternoon.

nemah beach, and did not come to the
surface. An immediate attempt to
reach the body was made and an hour
later it was recovered by Arch Long.

Two Killed, One
Dying, Result of
Liquor Raid Fight
STEVENSON, Wash., Aug. 7. W.
E. Rorison, 35, Clarke pounty (Wash
ington) deputy sheriff, was shot and
killed instantly in a battle with Paul
Hickey, a moonshiner, in the hills
three miles northeast of here, this
afternoon, and J. A. Morgan, United
States prohibition agent of Tacoma,
was severely wounded by Hickey.
Hickey was shot through the groin
and died a few hours later, after a
posse sent from here had found him
lying beside his still.
Accomplice is Held
Harold Ahola, 22, was arrested by
Sheriff Sweeney of Skamania county
late today and held on suspician of
being an accomplice of Hickey in the1
operation of the still.
The battle between the moonshin
ers and the prohibition agents took
place this afternoon about 1:30
o'clock, when Rorison and Morgan
had accompanied John Piggott, feder
al prohibition director, of Tacoma, in
to the hills in search of a suspected
moonshine still.
Vices Are Heard
The three officers had proceeded
along a forested trail about two miles
from Stevenson when they came to a
spring of water. They heard the voic
es of men close by in the underbrush
and after reconnollering, suddenly a
man stepped from the brush near the
spring armed with a rifle. Morgan
ordered the man to throw iip his
hands, at the same time firing three
shots over his head. In reply the man,
who later was identified . as Hickey,
fired point-blank at him.
City HaU Plans
May Be Revised
To Curtail Cost
The revision of plans for the new
city hall which will possibly involve
the abandonment of the design drawn
by Edmund Bergholtz, Portland archi
tect, is expected as the next move in
the arrangements for the new structure.
Repeated attempts to secure bids
both on the entire building, and on
piece work' basis, have found the cost
of construction ranging about 15 per
cent above the amount of. money that
the city has on hand for the work.
The bond issue of $35,000 is to pay
for the construction and equipping of
the building, and the plan drawn by
Bergholtz for the structure to' be lo
cated on the bluff near Singer- hill,
will cost from $40,000 to $45,00(5 with
out any furnishing.
Estimate Is Low
The plan drawn by Architect Berg
holtz embraced a building which
could be built for $33,000, he estimat
ed. In explaining the high bids, Berg
holtz about a month ago stated to the
council that increases in the price of
the materials involved, notably cement
and steel, made the cost greater than
the estimates showed last spring.
The city, through communications
to three concerns dealing in materials,
has been assured that the prices for
cement have dropped 15 per cent in
the past year. Steel, their information
shows, has dropped 35 per cent, of
which 9 per cent is represented by the
decrease since January of this year.
A decline of 15 per cent in the price
of hardware is also noted.
Smaller Structure Talked
With these facts in view, it is gen
erally regarded as probable that the
next action of the city will be to se
cure entirely new plans, which will
possibly involve the designing of a
building somewhat smaller and of not
so expensive a type of construction.
The bond issue for the structure
still remains unsold, and the interest
that has accrued to the city through
the two year period that' the bonds
have, remained in the municipal cof
fers will swell the total fund approx
imately $38,000. .

Appeal Waived In
Case to Condemn
Stock Yard Site
The condemnation ' proceedings
brought by the Oregon and California
Railroad company, for the Southern
Pacific, against Augusta Warner, et
al-, to secure a site for the contem
plated stock corrals and team tracks
in Oregon City, will not be carried to
the supreme court. Announcement of
the intention of the defendants to
drop the appeal was made yesterday
yesterday by their attorney, Jos. E.
Hedges, following the expiration of
the period set by Judge J. U. Campbell
for the filing of a bill of exceptions.
A verdict of $1,200 with $200 attor
ney fees and costs, was returned when
the case was concluded here in the
circuit court on June 5. The defend
ants had contended that the site was
worth $4,600.
Through the action of the defense
in "the condemnation proceedings, the
plans of the Southern Pacific for the
improvement of the Green Point prop
erty in conjunction with the improve
ments order to the local depot by the
public service commission, can be
placed in operation as soon as the
company receives the official notifi
cation from the commission on the re
vised depot arrangements. The Green
Point site where stock corral, team
tra"ck and loading platform will be
built comprises .36 acre, and is 210
feet along the track, being 66 feet in
depth.
The defendants in the case beside
Augusta Warner were Sophy Moody,
W. R. Logus and Sadie Logus. - The
original price set upon the property,
which is located at 16th street, was
$6,000. The owners reduced the
amount to $4,600 and the S. P. raised
the price of $1,000 they had set to
$1,500. Under the condemnation judg
ment the defense receives less than
the final offer of the company for the
land.

The Receipt for Getting
Something for Nothnig
Has Not Yet Been Discovered
Nearly everyone is giyen an opportunity these days to
invest money in doubtful investments offering high rates
of interest. Some few people are taking their hard earned
money to buy stocks in enterprises that promise big re
turns in their glowing prospectuses. Others and happily
the great majority prefer to keep their money in the
bank, where they know it is absolutely safe, constantly
earning interest and ready for them when they really want
it. If you are approached by someone who offers amazing
profits just remember that the recipe for getting something
for nothing has not yet been discovered. Be safe. Don't
Be Sorry.

ment was denied by Judge Noble in
the justice court yesterday, and imme
diate notice of application for a writ

plea was illegal, and entered on prom
ise of a light fine, and that the judg
ment was void in form and context.

Breckenridge Long, former third as
sistant secretary of state in the Wil
son cabinet. The vote stood :
Reed, 184,666; Long, 176,787.
Additional returns today showed
that R. R. Brewster of Kansas City,
indorsed by the regular organization,
had increased his lead over William
Sacks of St, Louis, who ran on a
"wet" platform, to nearly 11,000 for
the Republican senatorial nomination.
The nomination of Brewster seemed
assured, as most of the remaining

rural districts, in which he has polled
many more votes than Sacks. With
2751 of the 3848 precincts in the state
tabulated the vote was:
