"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! - Ernestine Singer. Transference. Jack Well, old man. she has ae cepted me and named the day. That's a load off my heart. Married Friend-Yes; now the load Is ion your shoulders.

"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. Proof Is Demanded. "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 liable source they either ignorantly or maliciously misrepresented the facts and gave them unnecessary publicity which seems to have been their de sire to injure us personally and hurt our reputations as officers. They are guardians of the city. If we were not doing our duty why did they not in form the Mayor who is at the head of the police department and demand in- j vestigation.but that was not their ob- ject, their sole purpose was to erect a temporary barrier behind which to hide so that they might have an ex cuse to vote against my confirmation ' as Chief a position which I did not seek nor desire. "We defy them to make an affidav it and make it a public record in sup- ! port of the false statements that they made publicly in the Council Come j out like men and let the public know wdm inrormauon you nave against us, make affidavits of the time and place so that you will be resposible for the allegations made:" S.
