Clackamas County's Rose Society is
preparing for one of its buiest years;
for the best rose season Oregon has
ever experienced and for the best
Rose Show ever held in the County
with roses of quality the equal of any
ever shown in the state.
The ladies in the management of
this society deserve much encourage
ment in their work. Before the so
ciety was formed there were very few
roses raised in our district but since
organizing . each succeeding year
brings new. enthusiasts, who at the
same time while beautifying their own
property, do much to beautify the city
as well. Their show will be Held in
June. The whole county is eligible
to enter. Now is the time to get the
bushes in trim and ready for the class
in which you are most interested.
Prizes should be offered for the best
- roses of any kind from each district
so as to awaken those who have just
as good as we have but are timid
about coming to the front. Come out
and defeat those who are now in
the runnig. Competition is the life
of trade.
It is also the greatest ;
.. , .
stimulant to do greater and better .
things, to raise better roses and there-
by better yourselves as also your city '
and county.
We are pleased to learn that our
brothers in the eastern end of our
county are not displeased with the
management of the county and with
the treatment they have had at the
hands of the county government. We
are from Missouri and if Estcada citi
zens can show us that it is for the best
interests of the entire population or
the majority thereof, that the county
should be divided and a new county
formed we will fall in line and aid the
cause. At the same time, those cham
pioning the new cause should consid
er the task ahead of them, the great
expense of properly advertising tne
4 plan throughout our Great State, of
abstracting the present county records
in case the voters of the state see
the matter as they do also, the fact
that the world knowns Clackamas
county and it has taken sixty years
for the world to get the knowledge.
All this expense must fall on the
small population within the district
to secede.
They may be right we are good
listeners' and reasonable, in fact, re-
National Banking Helped to
Make Country's Prosperity
By E. C. STOKES, Former Governor of New Jersey
rHE present banking system
of this country. It is an INDEPENDENT SYSTEM. It
has enabled every community to finance itself through it3
own wealth and its own citizens. It. has freed the pioneer,
whether industrial or agricultural, from the domination of the money
center. Under it character has often been the asset that has secured
capital for a start in life. .
It does several great things. It has furnished money as good as
gold the world over. A noteholder of a national bank has NEVER
LOST A DOLLAR THROUGH THE FAILURE OF A BANK
And yet in this land today an active campaign, supported by a large
fund, is being carried on to change this system that FINANCED
THE GREATEST CIVIL WAR OF THE . WORLD, that for
nearly fifty years has served the public better and at less coct than any
other system ever devised and that has FINANCED THE GREAT
EST PROSPERITY THE WORLD EVER SAW and t substi
tute for it a system so complicated that the wayfaring man will be
LOST IN TTS LABYRINTH! AN MAZE. -
THE PRESENT BANKING SYSTEM HAS BEEN TOO SERVICE
ABLE TO BE CHANGED WITHOUT SERIOUS THOUGHT ANO LONG
CONSIDERATION.

BEAT CAM
LONDON, April 1. Finishing in a
driving rain and hail storm, Oxford
easily won today the annual boat race
with Cambridge on the river Thames
here by six boat lengths. The result
was never in doubt, the Oxonians
winning as tihey pleased. Oxford's
time was 23 minutes, 3 seconds.
The Cambridge crew started away
at 30 strokes to the minute after the
Oxford captain had won the toss and
chosen the Middlesex side, which was
partially sheltered from the wind.
The shells ran on practically even
terms for the first half mile, the Ox
ford- crew rowing 32 strokes to the
minute to this distance and rounding
the half-mile mark only three feet
ahead of Cambridge. The coxswain
of the Oxonians here asked for more
speed, and the crew instantly respond
ed by sending the craft away in the
lead, Cambridge hit it up to 38, but
could not overtake the Oxford shell.
At Herrods, the half way distance,
Oxford was three lengths in the lead
The crew slackened its pace, allowing
the Cambridge shell to make a slight
gain. At the three-quarters point Ox
ford was still to lengths to the good.
At this time a rain and hailstorm
started and the Oxonians pulled away
easily from their rivals, finishing six
boat lengths to the good.
CANNOT FIND WILL
NEW YORK, April 1. Five days
after the death of John Arbuckle, the
coffee millionaire, who died here on
Wednesday, his lawyers and relatives
have about given up hope of finding
a will, and it is now believed he died
intestate.
His estate is estimated at more than
$20,000,000. No children survive to
inherit it, and Mrs. Arbuckle, his wife,
died five years ago. Mrs. Robert Ja
mieson and Miss Christina Arbuckle,
sisters are the nearest relatives. Wil
liam Arbuckle Jamieson, a nephew
succeeded Charles Arbuckle, brother
of John Arbuckle, in the management
of the business of the Arbuckle Broth
ers, several years ago. He and the
OLne remuyes, ami vnuuaui ,v
man, principal attorney ior jonn Ar-
bucklei have gone t0 Pittsburg for the
burial.

HUSBAND REUNITED
Mrs. Peter Kurnick, who deserted
her three children and went to St.
Johns to seek work in a woolen mill,
was-dismissed at a hearing before Re
corder Stipp Monday. The woman's
husband, who is employed in Seattle,
was in court with her, and after the
case was disposed of they and their
children left for the Washington city.
Mrs. Kurnick said that she had left
her children while half crazed through
not hearing from her husband and
fearing they and herself would
starve. She went to St. Johns to "ob
tain work in a woolen mill where she
had been employed before she was
married and intended sending for her
children. Mrs. Kurnick was brought
here Sunday by the Chief and police
of St. Johns and was cared for un
til the arrival of her husband, at the
home of S. R. Green.

work of William Couper, to whom the explorer gave sittings soon after
his return from the discovery of the north pole. It represents the ad-

lit; ius nisi) th t i I'e bust should have a place in tbe museum, for Peary's ex

the institution miii Uiose connected with it. It will be remembered that the

THREE EVENTS AT CLYMPIAD.
The Marathon, 10.COO and 5,000 Meter
Events Programmed For the Gamn
to Be Held In Stockholm, Sweden.
Next Summer.
t
Distance running is on theboom In
America wherever athletics are foster
fd. Moreover, it is on the boom iu
practically every country in the world.
France. Germany. England. Egypt,
Austria. Hungary. Sweden, Greece..
Italy and even Japan are all "in the
game," doing their best to develop
runners who can negotiate several
miles in world beating time.
For in the Olympic games at Stock
holm next summer there are three long
distance "races programed 5,000 me
ters, 10.000 meters and the Marathon.
It is the first of the modern Olympiads
with more than two long races.
If any one nation could annex all
three of these events, thereby adding
fifteen points to its score, it would be
greatly advanced toward capturing the
team trophy. The United States is
generally considered superior to any of
the other countries in track and field
athletics ns a result of the triumphs
In recent Olympiads, but there is a
possibility of a surprise being sprung
by any one of three or four of the
rival teams. It is a practical certainty
that Uncle Sam's men will not win a
majority of the points, as in the past,
even though they get a plurality of the
points and win the big prize.
England, for one, is waking up ath
letically. For some time past it had
apjieared that the supremacy of Great
Britain in the long distance events was
due to become a thing of vague and
remote memories, but England is com
ing back. . .
England's Olympic tryouts are set
for May 18 at Stamford Bridge. F. W.
Parker, coach of the London Athletic
club, has volunteered his services to
every man on the island who thinks he
can learn to run distances. Parker Is
one of the most capable distance run
ning authorities In England and has
exhibited an ability to impart his
knowledge to the few men with whom
he was experimented, notably Lieuten
ant Halswell. who astounded the world
by his great quarter mile running sev
eral years ago. and W. Scott of the
Broughton Harriers, who became one

mile route. "Already over half a hun
dred youngsters have sent Parker theii
names as being ambitious to- go over
the longer course in.the Olympic runs.
In France interest in the distance
game is also growing to national pro
portions. The Frenchmen have turned
out a man who. is capable of running
any athlete in the world off his feet at
five and ten miles in the person of Jean
Bouin. This fellow has smashed two
world's records the one hour and the
half hour run. In each he averaged
close to five minutes per mile.
From present indications Bouin is
the man the Americans will have to
beat to get away with a victory in the
5.000 and 10.000 meter runs. Bouin has
announce;! his intention of running
both these races at Stockholm. The
5.000 meters is a little over three miles
v.nd the 10.000 is about six miles.
As for the Marathon run. there is tre
mendous interest abroad more, prob
ably, that) is being shown just now in
this country. The Swedes have 'set
their hearts on winning this event, as
have also the Greeks. England and
Germany likewise are developing men
for the nerve racking iest, which will
be almost a man killer under the new
rules, which prohibits a man having
an attendant 05 getting nourishment
along the way.

STOCK IS STRONG
The Portland Union Stock Yards
Company reports as follows:
Receipts for the past week have been
Cattle 1590; calves 6; hogs 1147;
sheep 4444; horses 12;
In the cattle division both steers
and' cows had a good stiff demand with
not enough offering to supply the
numerous buyers in the yards. Top
steers sold as high as $6.65, though
most of the receipts were below top
quality and the majority of sales rang
ed around $6.30 to $6.50. Top cows
brought $5.75 with very few on the
market of any kind. No veal calves
were sold stags and bulls ranged
steady to strong at former quotations.
With very little in sight at the pres
ent for next week prospects are bright
for a continued advance in all lines.
Hogs opened the week's sales at
$7.20 hut by the end of the week topper-
were easily bringing $7.50 with
buyers anxious to secure more. Heavy
nogs at present are selling around
$6.50 to $6.75 being quite an advance
over former quotations.
Mutton sheep of all kind3 continue
to be very scarce and the market is
quoted a quarter higher on all classes.
Sheared lambs brought $5.60. Seven
cars of sheep on the market this morn
ing not yet sold so we are unable to
