that had been circulated early in the
spring, and that the measure which
was petitioned for was to be placed
on the ballot, at the primary election,
May 19.
An investigation by the Morning En
terprise of the petitions now on file
in the City Recorder's office revealed
the fact that eight sheets of the peti
tions, bearing 1S8 names, had eras
ures, type blocked out, and words re
inserted in the petition for the meas
ure. The wording of the petitions as
they evidently were before the chang
es were made was -as follows: "shall
be submitted to the legal voters of
the City of Oregon City, Clackamas
County, Oregon, for their approval or
rejection at the special city election
to be held on the 19th day of May,
1922, at the regular state primary
election, and each for himself says:-"
As changed, these eight sheets', along
with the balance of the petitions read
as follows: "shall be submitted to the
legal voters of the City of Oregon Ci
ty, Clackamas County, Oregon, for
their approval or rejection at the reg
ular city election to be held on the
7th day of November, 1922, and each
for himself says:
The signatures were certified to be
fore a notary public on March 7, 1922.
The changes made involve the sub
stitution of the May 19 for November
7, the substitution of "the regular city'
for "special city," and the block-out
of the words "at the regular state pri
mary election.'
"I was sure that I had signed no pe
tition requesting that such a measurs
be placed on the ballot at the general
election," Cross stated, "and if these
petitions, which have recently been
filed, call for the recall measure to be
placed on the ballots at this coming
election, I for one do not want my
name to appear oh it." Cross stated
that at the time the petitions were cir
culated, previous to March 7, of this
year, he was In favor of having the
bonds recalled, especially in consider
ation of the city hall entanglement at
that time. In view of the more recent
developments, however, he stated, and
inasmuch as the petitions were not fil
ed in time to have the measure placed
on the primary ballots as was the in
tention when he signed it, he said he
did not feel that he wanted to be con
sidered a signer to the petitions as
later filed.
A. A. Price, local merchant, express
ed the same sentiment Saturday, when
informed that his name was on the
recall petition. "Have they dug up
that old petition,' he declared. T
thought that was dead and . buried."
Price was asked if he is in fatar of
the recall of the bonds at this time.
"No, sir," he stated, "I understood' that
the petition that I signed was for a
measure to be placed on the ballot at
the spring primary election, and if
the petition is being presented at this
late time, and for a measure to be
placed on the November ballots, as
far as my signature is concerned it
