HELP BOOST CITY.
More than 100,000 persons are ex
pected to visit Portland from Eastern
cities during the Elks Convention in
July. Oregon City is nearest to Port
land and the Publicity Committee of
the Commercial Club intends having
a large percentage of these people
visit Oregon City, some of whom, it
goes without saying, will be suffi
ciently interested to stay with us,
either business, professionally or oth
erwise. Oregon City like all other western
cities, needs continual installments of
new blood in order to keep the wheels
of progress moving. The city is now
in an era of advancement beyond the
expectancies of even the most opti
mistic members of the Publicity Com
mittee. There are more things being
done, expected and promised than eV
er before in its history. Everyone
seems to place ' his shoulder to the
wheel and do his part. That is what
is bringing the results which are now
sure to follow.
When the Elks and their friends
come we should be ready to receive
and entertain them. To show them
Oregon City wants them. That we
have, more natural advantages than
any other place on the Coast, if not
in the country. All we need is new
blood, new capital and the resulting
new industries, need for labor and
pay roll. Anyone who has friends
in Eastern cities looking toward the
west can have literature sent them
without charge by leaving addresses
with the Publicity Department.

Corporations Today Do Not
Form Monopolies to
Raise Prices
By Judge PETER. S. GROSSCUP of Chicago
m
HEN more than two centuries ago our ancestors ripened into
a capacity for FULL PEESOJSTAL FREEDOM competi-
tion was the law of the
ago they ripened into a capacity for SELF GOVERN
MENT it was the law of the land.
In 1896, when we became a COMMERCIAL WORLD POWER,
the law of the land had to be brought up even with the march of in
dustry with the adaptation of the world's monetary standard.
We are again in the midst of a period where the law is behind in
both human and economic aspects, the moving column of the nation's
life.
In the proceedings against the harvester trust in Chicago it was
shown that the trust sold machinery CHEAPER to the farmers ; that
i.t was better machinery and that repairs, a very important considera
tion, were much EASIER. AND CHEAPER than formerly, but
- that in spite of this the courts bald that it was objectionable for the
manufacturers of harvesting machinery to get together and act in
concert. '
That was GOOD law two hundred years ago. It was good ONE
HUNDRED YEARS BEFORE WASHINGTON. Then it was
generally assumed that men got together for the sole reason that they
intended to form a monopoly and raise prices They do not get to
lhtr for these purposes now.
ENJOY WHAT YOU CAN.
To be soured by poverty or to
be hardened by it is a mistake, an
error of thought. Instead of enjoy
ing .our life we are cramping our
selves. It is as if we were set at a
feast and sulkily refused to enjoy a
few dishes because we could not
reach everything on the table and
make ourselves sick, like foolish
children that we -are. Bliss Car

mind," that they -were "busy making
promises to which they cannot suc
cessfully be held," that the recall of
judges "would make trimmers of
men," and "deter men of independence
and capacity from accepting positions
of trust."
"It was conceivable fifty years ago
that aa result of our internal strife
there might be two republics," he said.
"It is conceivable today that if some
of the suggestions put forward at this
time are to prevail the question may
arise whether or not there shall be
one republic."
"Against such a contingency it be
hooves every citizen to set his face in
absolute disregard of every other con
sideration, personal or political."
The efforts of President Taft to car
ry out the pledges of the party, he
said, had brought no aid from his Re
publican detractors.

FINAL TRIBUTE PAID
The funeral of Miss Martha Gross

services being conducted by Rev. A.
M.Dart. The church was crowded
with friends of the young woman.
The interment was made in the Staf

floral tributes were beautiful. Henry
Bowers, George Bowers, Edgar Mil

Miss Gross was born April 24, 1887,
in Sputh, North Dakota, and came to
Oregon with her parents, Gottlieb and

HOLIDAY FAVORS.
St. Valentine and Washing
ton Birthday Novelties.
SENTIMENTAL AND PATRIOTIC FAVORS.
A pretty table set for a valentine
luncheon has a centerpiece formed of
a low bowl of Boston buds, the small,
fragrant pink roses which because of
their short stems are less expensive
than most kinds. In this asparagus
fern is thrust plentifully. A pink rib
bon is tied around the bowl, with a big
bow at one side, and from this come
out narrow strips of pink ribbon to
each place, where they are attached to
a place card. If the luncheon Is a small
one four candles if large, six are
used for lighting, shaded with fancy
pink shades.
If possible have original sketches in
Ink or water color on the place cards,
or they might be made of pink card
board, cut heart shape, with the name
and an appropriate verse printed on
them. They should be made to look
like valentines as much as possible. A
tiny pink envelope addressed to each
guest might be found at the places,
with a valentine inside If the place
cards are place cards only more fun
and interest will result If a valentine is
tucked away at each place also. The
heart shaped valentine illustrated is
provided with a cardboard back so
that it may be used as a dinner or
luncheon place card. The patriotic can
dle shades are especially made for
Washington's birthday parties and are
in the form of cherry tree trunks with
openings at the top for the tall candles.
Ribbon Trimmed Hats.
A hint of what may be- expected in
hat trimmings may be gleaned from
y
BETWEEN SEASONS MODEL.
the chic model pictured. .This Is a be
tween seasons model,.-.
It is said that ribbon of soft and
beautiful colorings and combination of
colorings will adorn the smartest of
the early spring hats.
Not a Bad Precedent.
Some of the beauties of ancient Rome
had marble busts sculptured of therc
selveti, on which were placed different
wigs corresponding to the change of
style jind coloring. If modern woman
follov.ed .suit there would be fewer
atrocious coiffures.
A mirror should reveal unbecoming
ness, but it does not seem to do so. A
bust of oneself, bedecked with chignon,
Psyche, Greek coils or the present
daguerreotype disfigurations, could not
fail to be a convincing proof of our
selves as others see us. -
The greatest beauty cannot afford to
trifle w-ith her hairdressing. It is only
the plain woman who boldly defies
looks to be in the style.
New Fancy Work. "
A new and engaging set of fancy
work is the Crocheting of chain mesh
bags in gold, silver or other metal
threads. The top of the bag is finished
in a shell or picot stitch, and if a very
eiauuruie anair is aesirea tne same
decoration is used at the sides and
lower edge. It is doubtful, however, if
the extra frills are an improvement
The finished product is lined with satin
and drawn up by a cord and tassel.
Candle shades and other Frenchy
little things are evolved in the same
way. and those who have become
adepts in the art are never at a loss
for gifts. . .
- Killing a Robin.
There are persons at the present day
and' not all old women, either who
"believe that killing a robin will bring
bad luck. According to ancient belief,
the storm cloud was a huge bird. The
Arabians represented his wings as
measuring 10.000 fathoms. This bird
lived on worms, the latter "being the
streaks of- lightning . accompanying
storms. The Germans remodeled the
fiction 'by creating the god Tuor.

the present time.
Today the mighty Roso weighs 310
pounds. His chest measurement is fifty-five
inches, while his waist Is a
mere trifle of fifty inches. When in his
