There will be no landslide in Clack
amas county this year for special
road taxes, the first reports from the
different districts on the meetings
held last Saturday indicate, but In
all probability sufficient extra imposts
will he levied so that there will be
no material setback to the general
road improvement program.
Reports from seventeen districts in
the county were made to Clerk Fred
A. Miller, Monday. More than 50 of
the 66 districts in the county consid
ered the matter of special taxes. On
ly three of the seventeen districts
refused to vote a tax, but in many of
the cases the levy passed by a ma
jority of only one or two votes and
after a stormy session.
District 16, including Oak Grove and
Jennings Lodge will ask the state
highway commission to make a state
highway of the river road from Port
land to Oregon City. It is contended
that the road is at present carrying
the heaviest traffic in the state and
that comparatively little of it origin
ates in the district which is heavily
burdened in order to keep up the
pavement.
The districts which have reported
on the action taken at the road meet
ings are: -
1. Oregon City. 2 mills.
8. Canby 10 mills.
15. Mountain Road. 5 mills
15. Oajc Grove. 10 mills.
20. Damascus. 10 mills.

LARGE INCREASE SHOWN
IN SGHOOLATTENDANCE
Gain In Population Is Cause
Of Bigger Enrollment, Is
Theory Of Superintendent.
The registration ot students in
Clackamas county already this year
exceeds that total number registered
at the end of the past school year, ac
cording the figures in the office r
county Schools Superintendent Brent
on Vedder. The registration, accord
ing to the reports for this month," is
8588 as against 8468 for last year.
The registration, the superintend
ent explains, always shows a material
increase by the last of the school per
iod, indicating that there will be a
mateual gain over the already heavy
figure.
Boys in school at present number
4455 and girls 4133, being in approx
imately the same proportion as the
end of the past year.
The reason for the increase, the
superintendent says, is that the popu
lation of the county is gaining. In one
or two districts there ' has been a
slight drop in the registration but in
the majority of cases it has enlarged
materially. Last year at this time
there were 319 teachers employed in
the county while today there are 332.
Judging from the school census fig
ures, the superintendent declares, the
population in the county at present is
more than 40,000. The census last year
showed 12,678 students of school age
and a material Increase this year is
looked for. Statisticians compute that
the actual population is 3.1 times the
school census indicating that last year
the number of inhabitants in the coun
ty were 39,302 as against 37,698 shown
by the census taken by the govern
ment in 1920.

84 Are Dead And
Scores Injured
By Mine Blast
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Nov. 23.
Eighty-four lives were lost and sixty
persons were injured as a result of an
explosion yesterday in Dolomite No 3
coal mine of the Woodward Iron comp
any, according to a statement issued
at noon today by Frank H. Crockard,
president of the company. Of the in
jured thirty-five were removed to their
homes and twenty-five were in hos
pitals. Work of identification had not been
completed, but it was believed there
were thirty-eight white dead and twen
ty white injured.
Stories of heroism, common in coal
mine disasters, began to trickle out
this morning as begrimed rescuers
came to the surface after long hours
of work in the mine.
One- rescuer told of an unidentified
mine foreman who assembled about
him thirty workers soon after the
blast took place and ordered all to re
main with him and work on fixing up
brattices with stones and cavas to shut
off the dreaded after damp gas that he
felt sure was to follow the explosion.
According to the . rescue workers
one miner objected to remaining with
' the rest of the men, and began to
fight his way outward. The rest stay
ed behind and completed the brattice
of stones and canvas. When the fans
were 'starter and the air cleared suf
ficiently to make it safe to tear down
the-temporary wall "and the foreman
led his men out, the body of the man
who refused to stick was found only
a few feet away from the temporary
brattices, a victim of tbe gas.
Tales of single miners who hurriedly
built walls across niches and hollows
in the workings, stopping the cinks
with parts of their own clothing, thus
saving their lives from" the gases, were
numerous as rescue squads reached
the surface.
Many of the more seriously injured
may succumb, it was said at the hos
pital in Bessemer, where they were
taken after they were rescued.
CHICAGO. Nov. 23: Rail clerks
freight handlers and station employes
271,000 in number today applied
for an increase in wages.
, Application for the wage increase
was made before the Uunited States
railway labor board this morning by
E. H. Fitzerald, president of the
Brotherhood of Railway and Steam
ship clerks, freight handlers, express
and station employes.
"It is becoming continually more dif
ficult for the railway employes toj
maintain what has been recognized as
a comfortable standard of living," Mr.
Fitzgerald declared.
The present average monthly wages
of clerical and station forces are $85.
80, as against $109.02 under the labor
board decision of 1920, according to
Fitzgerald.
"Despite claims of paid propagand
ists, railroads are now in excellent fi
nancial condition," Fitzgerald declar
ed. "The net income of the railways
of the country was $103,000,000 great
er in the nine months ending October
1, 1922, than in the corresponding per
iod of 1921.
"This increase represents an in
crease of 30 per cent after all taxes
.and operating expenses are paid."
Fitzgerald presented data tending
prove railroad traffic at present is
heavier than at any previous time ex
cept. 1920.
Rebuilding of "the Pudding River
bridge, on the Pacific Highway at the
junction of the Clackamas and Mar
ion county line about 13 miles south
of Oregon City, is to be considered by
the two counties and the state during
1923. At a session of the local coun
ty court, the burget committee and
members of the state highway commis
sion Friday, tentative plans for the fi
nancing of the improvement were
made.
It is planned to replace the present
wooden structure -by a concrete span,
the cost is estimated at $78,000. It is
up to the counties to bear the ex
pense. The improvement ana tne
amout is to be equally divided between
them. The Clackamas county court,
however, has stated tbat the payment
of $39,000 is impossible in any one
year in view of the heavy expenses
which are already facing the road
fund. An agreement has been suggest
ed, according to commissioner W. A.
Proctor, whereby the payment from
this county will be divided into three
annual . installments and the bridge
constructed under funds advanced by
the state. The total cost is to be
paid by the counties with the excep
tion of th expense of desiging and
superintending the erection which is
handled by the state. ' .
KU KLUX KLAN RAPPED
BY OREGON GOVERNOR
SALEM, Ore., Nov. 24. "The time
has come for true Americanism to as
sert itself in a nationwide battle
aga nst this political iniquity," says
Governor Olcott, regarding the Ku
Klux Klan in a letter to the New York
Tribune. Governor Olcott refers to
the Klan as a "monster of invisible
government," and declares it mus be
curbed 'or it will lead us into pitfalls
and possible ruin."
The governor's letter is in reply to
an inquiry from the. Tribune about
the situation 'in Oregon, and whether
the Oregon executive will respond to
the appeal of Governor Parker of
Louisianna for the co-operation of all
governors in suppressing the Klan.

yesterday issued an order making a
drastic reduction in the tonnage which
the trucks are allowed to transport.
Under the new ruling only 400
pounds per tire inch will be allowed to
all trucks. This is a reduction, frim
tha siding scale of 500 per tire inch
for tires totaling under 30 inches and
600 for trucks with tires over 30.
The new rule applies to all roads
in the county with the exception of the

ing stands.
An order was also issued cutting
down the speed of trucks of all types

The aspect of the Lausanne confer

thought that France and Great Britain,
in full accord, could offer Italy advant
ages, such as spheres of influence
in Asia Minor and continued posses

powers by the classic means of sub
commissions. But the unexpected has
happened. Two powerful outsiders, the
United States and Russia, are present.
When the United States and Russia
were invited the European powers
with general interests were not in ac
cord and harmony seemed hopeless of
attainment. The presence of two ut
siders is embarrassing because both
have paralled and unconflicting inter
ests and have orders to protect them.

NEW YORK, Nov. 25 Georges
Clemenceau left New York today for
Boston, intensely tickled by the wrath
his Tuesday's speech has stirred up in
the senate. "The Tiger" hastily scan
ned the newspapers in Grand Central
terminal while being hustled aboard
hig car. The angry retort of Senator
Borah particularly pleased him.
"I like that," said the former French
premier. "That . arouses discussion.
That will make people think. I like
a discussion. That is a democratic
quality I learned years ago."
The Frenchman indicated that he
might have something more to sa7
concerning the League of Nations and
America's attitude toward Europe in
speeches in Boston and Chicago. Also
he defended the league, saying it was
no menace and contending that Amer
ica's isolation will hurt the league and
the peace of the world.
Clemenceau lay in bed until 7:45 a.
m. and arrived at the terminal just in
time for his train, departing at 8:33
a. m.
A crowd of persons who kenw of his
departure was on hand to bid him fare-,
well. There was much hadshaking.
The former premier autographed a
protograph of himself for Frederick

was brought to the station by Colons,

As the "Tiger" vanished in the car

A farmer in the Sunnyside commun
ity recently reported to County Agent
W. A. Holt something was destroying
his fall wheat. An investigation was
made and with the assistance of the
entomology department' of the Oregon
Agricultural College it was found that
the damage is being done by the
"glassy cutworm." This worm
cutsoff the young plant a short dist
ance below the surface of the ground,
causing the earth to be entirely bare
of grain, in places may hundred square
feet having been destroyed.
J. W. Rockwood of the U. S. Ento
mological Station at Forest Grove has
made an examination of the effected
field "and has identified the worm as
one which works only on plants simil
ar to wheat and oats. The best con
trol is effected by crop rotation which
includes some . crop such as clover,
on which the worm will not live.
This field has been" in grain for six
years at least. According' to RocK
wood it is very unusual for this worm
to be so destructive at this season, as
it usually is active in the spring
months. The county agent has ar-
nan. He set December 11 as the date
for the rehearing of the case, and de
clared he would go to the bottom of"
the case and probe all possibilities of
criminal collusion in the previous

Blanche Brummer of Hansell, la. '
CHICAGO, Nov. 25. Professor John
P. Tiernan was married at Crown
Point, Ind., today to a mysterious
"Blanche," reputed to be a wealthy
widow from Iowa. The woman gave
her name, as Blanche 1. Brimmer of
Hansell, Iowa, and her age as 24.
Professor Tiernan was one of the
"angles" in the famous South Bend
paternity case involving the father
ship of "Baby Billy."
As the news of the marriage came
to South Bend, the home of the Tier
nans, Mrs. Tiernan, who was divorced
from her husband two days ago, made
the statement that she and the former
Notre Dame professor had lived to

Monday 'night. .
When the divorce was granted Tier
nan last Thursday he testified that
he and Mrs. Tiernan had been separat
ed since October 2.
Mrs.- Tiernan declared she was go

the grounds of perjury. . .
