"Beautiful Willamette'
Winding, widening through the val
ley, Bright Willamette glides away;
Onward ever
Lovely river,
Softly calling to the sea.
Time that scars us,
Maims and mars us
Leaves no track or trace on thee,
said Sam Simpson many years ago
about the river that runs through our
town. For a long time, though, the
policy has been to put on the river
bank exerything objectionable and dis
agreeable that no one will stand any
other place. 4
The sight-seer, having seen all of
Main street, thinks he will stroll down
to the edge of the river and spend a
little time watching the water, but
first he runs into an odor, then into
an advertisement for shoes or is it
tobacco?
According to some of our legal tal
ent it rests, entirely with the city
whether we shall have a shore, line
that will be known for its beauty
wherever Oregon is known or whether
we shall continue to have unsanitary,
unsightly stables. It is mostly city
property, and having it cleared does
not call for an expenditure of much
money.
We hear so much of the "beautiful
Hudson,'' but a great deal has been
done to beautify it, whereas all the
Willamette needs is to be left alone
given a chance. It is already beauti
ful beyond description where the
"march of civilization" has not plant
ed its banner in the way of a barn
or a shack.
We are not asking 'the city for a
boulevard or promenade or anything
else expensive just a clean river
bank, free from stables and foul odors,
and with the sewers a little less in
evidence.
Sam Simpson goes on to say:
"Spring's green witchery is weaving,
Bright and brighter at thy side;
Grace forever haunts thy journey,
Beauty dimples in thy tide."
It is about as correct a description
of the river as it now appears as
some epitaphs are of an idealized de
parted. It seems almost a sacrilege
to parody "Beautiful Willamette," but
if Sam Simpson were to write of it to
day he would be obliged to say some
thing" about like this:
Barns and sewers grace thy shore line
. Cans and garbage at thy side;
Shacks and billboards haunt thy jour
ney, Typhoid lurks within thy tide.
Skulking, dodging past the stables;
Poor Willamette sneaks away.
Onward ever,
Luckless River,
Hustle, hurry to the sea.
Time that scars us,
Maims and mars us,
Hasn't done a thing to- thee!

How Is Your Watch?
If it is not running accurately perhaps it needs a little adjusting.
Bring iMn to us and we'll give it expert attention. A watchmaker
should be a watchmaker, not a tinker. ' Ten years' experience in re
pairing all kinds of timepieces from the simplest to the most com
plicated have helped us to master the art of watch repairing.
OUR WATCH WORDS ARE CAREFULNESS, COURTESY AND
CAPABILITY. .
The owner of a much appreciated watch often hesitates about
intrusting his timepiece to a repairer, and justly so, since a good
watch may easily be spoiled by carelessless.

MAYOR TO HAVE POLICE HEARING

getting the service for which they
pay.
"The charge was made that Officer
Frost and myself slept while we
should have been on duty and that we
were drawing pay for work which we
did not perform and that we absented
ourselves from the streets when we
should be on our beats. These charges
are basely false. Officer Frost and
myself have taken our orders direct
from the Mayor since Ed Shaw was
removed as chief and have followed
his instructions to the letter. When
there were extra duties to be perform
ed the Mayor would sometimes let us
off duty earlier the night previous so
that we could do extra work the fol
lowing day, as he did not want us. to
work sixteen hours per day as we
have done many times during the last
year. The laws of Oregon provide
that no employe of the state, county
or any city shall work more than eight
hours per day, and yet on two days
of this week we worked for sixteen
hours.

"If Councilmen Albright and Tooze
had come to me I would have told
them willingly what time we went to
work and when we quit. Instead of
seeking information direct from a re

which seems to have been their de
