S LARGE REWARDS WILL BE OFFERED Recent Robberiea In Mount Pleaaant, Twilight and Maple Lana 8tlr Ownera To Action. . The recent wholeeale .robberiea of chicken rooata In Twilight, Mount Pleasant and Maple Lane have atlr red the farmera to action and a Poul try Ral8era Protective Association will be organised at once. It Is thought that at least 300 ralaera will become charter , membera and that the organization will apread to other parts of the county. The first meeting will be held early this week In the Mount Pleaaant school house, and action will be taken at once to put en end to the stealing of chlckena. Large rewards will be offered for the arrtt of the thieves. Each member of the association will wear a button showing that he is a member, and signs giving the inform ation that the ownera are members of the association will be placed on all the chicken houses. It Is thought the announcement that rewards will be offered for the arrest of the thlevea will prevent robberies. The association was suggested by M. J. Laxelle, and thoae taking an active part In Its organization are Ward Lawton, of Mount Pleasant, and Mr. Myer. of Maple Lane. The latter's chicken roost was recently robbed of forty fine hens. The association will be known as The Clackamas County Poultry Ralslrs' Association.

Jones alleges that her husband drank to excess and finally abandoned her on November 25, 1904, while they were living at Ballard, Wash.

MANY FINE SPECIMENS IN STREETS Publlo As Well As Lot Owner Has Interest In Shade Trees And They Should Be Protected. Tbe Morning Enterprise U in re ceipt of an Interesting communication from Joseph E. Hedges regarding ahade trees. Mr. Hedges represented Mrs. Nellie Walker In her success ful fight to save a Urge tree at her Home. The letter follows: "Since It Is determined that the case w walMr-viroregonrTttr erax; which lnvolvea the queatlon whether thla city or Its council haa a tight to destroy a shade tree that stands on the parking between the aldewalk and the curb, will not be appealed, I feel at liberty to say to you some things that I learned by observation on my trp through New York and New England a few weeks ago. "Tha object of my trio waa to be In New Haven. Conn., during the re union of my class at Yale. So- that I was in that city longer than In any other during my trip. New Haven haa, I believe, more shade treea pro portionately to its area than any oth er city I have ever visited or been In. It Is called the 'City of Elms.' I Judge it has fifty miles of streets, on both sides of which are large treea gen erally elma. In the central portion especially many of the trees are either wholly on the sidewalk or part ly on the sidewalk or In the street beyond the , curb. And all of the trees are carefully guarded and none Is permitted to destroy or even In jure one. "I found the same condition on one side of Fifth avenue. New York, and on one aide of Eighth avenue. New York, and In portions of Boston. In Haverhill, Mass., the same care Is given to the trees as In New Haven. So it is In Newburyport, Mass. In deed tbe cities generally throughout New England build their walka and the curbs around their ahade trees, the beautlflera . of their . cities., and preserve them even to the Incon venience to an extent, of the pedes trians or drivers of vehicles. "I have brought home with me some photographs and other pictures showing the conditions I have told you of, and amongst these is one of the home for many years and tbe place of death of the poet, Whlttler, in Amesbyry, Mass. I waa at his home and found In front of the prop erty a large tree which atands about In the center of the walk which ex lends from the lot line to the curb. "I feel tbe public, as well aa the lot owner, has an Interest In the ahade trees; and I hope enough In terest will be manifested In the mat ter to demonstrate the existence of a strong sentiment in favor of the growing and preservation of these shade trees which adorn the city and that It takes so many years to create or grow." " Beggar Given Jail Sentence. William Duncan waa aentenced to 15 days In Jail by Recorder Stlpp. Duncan was arrested for Intoxication and begging by Policeman Cook.

I Today's Feature a THE MIN- SBJSJBJgSfJBBBBBBBJaaSBBBBBTBT UTE MAN ASory of the Battle of Lexington. THIS IS THE FIRST OF A SERIES OF FILMS PORTRAY INQ THE' PRINCIPAL INCI DENTS IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY. A change of .heart seems to have come to the Oregon City boys who Friday evening deserted the recruit ing officer of the Oregon Naval Militia. Three signed Saturday and were examined, others are to be ex amin?d Sunday morning and Monday all of ihosn who hare alreadyenllat: ed will concentrate their efforts in a special endeavor to raise the full complement of forty before Tuesday noon. A systematic canvass will be made and the service will oe outlined to any who do not yet know what It Is. All young men wishing to go on tbe cruise msy do so If they will take the examination, as arrangements have been mJe to take them to Portland Tuesday evening with those already sworn in and have tbe final details of eniitment arranged on board the cruiser Boston by the prop er officers. The absolute need of a new and adequate armory has brought the of ficers snd men of Company G, of the O. N. 0 to the aid of tbe Naval Militia. Company G having their full complement and with the new or ganization established the armory will be much easier to get because the need will be more readily noticed. All men between the ages of 18 and 30 will find the Naval Militia an Interesting and educational organi zation with excellent facilities for social enjoyment and more practical work. The local men will be drilled by Portland officers until the com pany Is on such a footing that It can look out for itself. The Portland of ficer will come to Oregon City to give the instruction. One of the moat enthusiastic boos ters for the Naval Militia is Dr. Meis8ner, who la devoting much time and energy to juh!ng the work of organisation. DANCE 13 BIG SUCCESS.

ROOSEVELT SAYS HE HALTED PANIC STEEL MERGER NECESSARY, DE CLARES EX-PRESIDENT AT HOUSE PROBE. ail iwmm is a$$i;;ed Committee Given Interesting Opinions On Trust Question That Confronted Him In Big Crisis. NEW YORK, Aug. 6. Theodore Roosevelt talked boldly before the House of Representatives committee of Inquiry Into the United States Steel Corporation here today and vol untarily told how his action In coo- .je;nyngjk9hajjwr nessee Coal ft Iron Company by the Steel Corporation In 1907 averted a disastrous panic The ex-President's action In sub mitting, to a Congressional review of his own administration was almost unprecedented In the history of the United States, and was thoroughly Rooseveltlan. First he placed upon himself re- sopnslblllty for approving the absorp tion to avert financial distress in Wall street, and condemned any man who would be so week as not to act as he did In that crisis. Not to hare done so, he said, would have been criminal. 4 Tbe chapter he contributed not on-. ly dealt with his part In tbe events of that threatening time, but he gave the committee some Interesting opin ions on the trust question that loom ed ud In their Import even more than his recital of facta in the Tennessee Coal & Iron transaction." After declaring that his object in approving the sale of tbe Tennessee company was to restore confidence, the ex President, In response to In quiries by Representative Littleton, relating to the case aa presented to him by Judge Gary and H- C. Frtck At. the white House conference in November.! 07. said: "The situation waa so critical that it waa liable to break at any moment until the action was taken, and the Instant it was taken an enormous Im- ' provement occurred and aa said in the poem of Mr. Emerson, with which you are all so well acquainted: "If the red slayer think he slays. Or if the slain think he is slain.
