June 19 In American History.
1812 Congress declared war against
Great Britain. The principal griev.
ance alleged was the impressment
of Dnited States seame by Brit
ish vessels. James Madison was
president
1864 Battle of the Kearsarge and Con
federate cruiser Alabama off Cher
bourg, France, resulted in the sink
ing of the latter.
1911 The United States recognized
the republic of Portugal. The first
remains were recovered from the
wreck of the battleship Maine.

OREGON CITY BEAUTIFUL
A stranger in Oregon City on Sat
urday remarked that he ( never saw
greater signs of prosperity anywhere
than here. The stores were all full;
the streets showed men, women and
children in large numbers; new homes
are going up in all directions; new
streets being laid out and graded;
automobiles on every corner. He was
amazed at the spirit shown, and ask
ed, "How do you do it?" We could
only answer that our large pay roll
stands behind our motto "In unity
there is strength."
Very few of us consider the great
value of our industrial plants. Just
a week ago Salem paid a bonus of
$5000 for a small factory just to get
more pay roll. We don't need to pay
bonuses, we have the best industrial
pay rolls in the state and with a it
tie encouragement it would probably
be an easy matter to induce further
investment here, all of which means
"More pay roll." Shall we aid?

I HAVE read the geography in United States schools, and I find

In my country it is compulsory for every student in the high
schools to learn English. How many in this country learn Spanish t
You know manana and chili con carne? and these you use to make fun
of us. When you have a knowledge of Spanish in your baggage then
go to South and Central America. "DON'T EXPECT TKADE TO

AUTOMOBILE CLUB
What will the automobile club do
about the many good roads bills to
be voted on at the next general elec
tion? There are so many propostions
to he considered that it will take a
Philadelphia lawyer to Btudy out
which will be the best legally, while
to satisfy the majority of the people
with a law understood by only a few
seems an impossibility. These diffi
culties will always come up with the
present system of law making by the
people. If we all were lawyers and
had the time to study out the niggers
in the various proposed bills all well
and good, but we are not all lawyers
and very few of us would take the
time if we could study the propostions
presented.
LOVERS OF LABOR
A man high up in political and legal
life some two years ago sold a farm
to a hard working man with a large
family to support; the note given in
part payment became due about a
month ago; the man meantime had
greatly improved the place, had clear
ed many acres and expected this sea
son to get large returns, more than
sufficient to make the payment due.
On demand he asked for time; the
man's wife begged for time but mon
ey mad men cannot give time; they
must have money. The poor man lost
his farm; he was driven off. The
original owner had a perfect right to
do as he did; he had the law on his
side. The records of Clackamas Coun
ty show the transaction. -Does this
show love for labor? Does this ac
tion show the original owner trying
to aid the poor laborer to better him
self? But such is the work of the
money mad.

ed that the charter provided when
and how his reports had been .made
and that these reports had been made
and filed in conformity with the char
ter. Mr. Stipp declared that the system
in use in conducting the city's finan
ces is the same as is used by the
County and State. He pointed out
that the exact situation was known
to he members of the finance com
mittee at the first of the year and
said there are stated times when re
ports are due when the exact condi
tion of the finances are set out. Mr.
Stipp said it would be impossible to
secure exact figures at irregular times
without going to no little trouble and
time.
Councilman Tooze poured oil . on
troubled matters by stating a finan
cial report would be definitely asked
for at the next meeting of the coun
cil. The Live Wires will discuss the pro
posed amendments to the city char
ter at their next week's lunchon,
which will probably be held Monday
or Wednesday evening.

ORE than H.000 women suffragists and about 800 male sympathlzerg
marched up Fifth avenue in the annual "votes for women" parade.
Many features combined to make the demonstration an impressive
one. among them the bright Spring weather, the brilliant yellow ban
ners and the well kept lines of the paraders. The procession was headed fcy
Mrs Charles T Knoblauch, wife of a former rough rider, and her detach
ment of women on horseback, among whom was Miss Inez Milholland, who
became well known as a Socialist speaker before she left college. Another
striking figure was that of Miss Nellie van Slingerland of Albany, incased In
glpuming armor'and impersonating Joan of Arc. The women, for the most
part, marched under the banners of their district organizations, but there
were many groups which carried the insignia of their callings, like the
"writers " Probably the most fervent applause of the day went to the mem
bers of the Men's league as they passed the ranks of the women marchers,
but the Rev Antoinette Brown Blackwell, eighty-seven years old and a suf
fragist since 1848, received the heartiest cheers from those who recognized her.
The first of the two photographs Is of the head of the division of women
writers, the second of a part of the cavalry vanguard.
TO SET NEW RECORD
That the Willamette Valley Chau
tauqua Assembly, which convenes at
Gladstone Park July 9, and continues'
twelve days will be the most success
ful ever held in the historic park, do
nated by H. E. Cross, is assured. . The
finest lecturers and entertainers on
the Chautauqua circuit have been en
gaged and the best courses of instruc
tion will be given. Mr. Cross, man
ager of the Chautauqua, has been un
tiring in his, efforts to make the meet
ing the greatest ever held, and de
clared Tuesday that he was confident
he would be successful. So many per
sons of world-wide reputation have
been engaged 'that it is impossible to
enumerate them all. Among them,
however, are John Mitchell ,for many
years president of the United Mine
Workers, and now Vice-President of
the American Federation of , Labor;
Judge frank P. Sadler, formerly of
the municipal court of Chicago; Rev.
J. M. Cleary, lecturer and man of af
fairs; Charles Edmund Russell ,the
great editor; Lou J. Beauchamp, "the
man who laughs the truth into the
hearts of the people"; Miss Helen
Varick Boswell, noted platform lectur
er; Rev. William Spurgeon, noted
London clergyman, and a score of oth
ers. Mr. Cross announces that scores
of persons already have engaged tent
space, and the indications are that
there will be a larger number of per
sona actually living on the grounds
than ever before.

course of time." said the speaker, "the
old well was - filled, but there was a
hole alongside as big as the first. Tbe
Russian weDt farther away and dug
another bole' to fill the second. He

IING FOR
TO START AT ONCE
Thirty-eight teams with scrapers
and grading outfit passed through
this city on their way to Canby, where
grading will commence at once for
the Portland. Eugene & Eastern Rail
way Company. The outfit is the
property of the North Coast Contract
Company, and will be In charge of G.
L. Harding, of this city, who is con
nected with the company. This com
pany has been awarded the contract
of grading.
In an interview with M. J. Lee, of
Canby, Tuesday afternoon, Mr. Lee
stated that the City Council of Can
by at first refused to grant him a
right of way for the railroad, company
from Molalla to Canby, for the Canby
Molalla Railroad Company, and at the
last meeting he says a petition was
circulated with 133 names of taxpay
ers and citizens of Canby to the city
council, 128 of these being in favor
of granting Mr. Lee the franchise, and
which was granted to the Portland,
Eugene Railoard, and the Canby-Mo-lalla
Railroad.
Mr. Lee stated the company would
operate its cars by electricity, and
that it has purchased 70 acres of the
rights of way which goes through
some of the richest land in Clacka
mas county. It is the intention of the
company to run its line on the West
side, crossing the Willamette river at
Canby, and extending on to Molalla,
and later on to extend to Eugene. He
also says "there is good backing, and
the work will be pushed rapidly along
to completion."
The grading camp will be establish
ed about three miles, from Canby on
the Molalla river, the working crew
reaching its destination and pitching
camp Tuesday afternoon.
The Sibylline Books.
It is recorded of Tarqtiin the Proud,
seventh emperor of Rome, that an old
woman came to him with nine books,
which contained, she said, sacred ora
cles. She asked an enormous price for
them, and when the emperor refused
she flew Into a rage, threw three of the
books into the fire and still asked the
same price for tbe remainder. The em
peror again refused, and she thereupon
threw three more into tbe fire and still
asked the same pricp for the three re
maining. This so astonished tbe em
peror that he bought the three at the
price for which in tbe first Instance he
might have bad tbe nine. These were
the Sibylline books, long looked upon
by the Romans as divine oracles.
