GROWERS HAVE SOLD
90 PER CENT OF HOPS
Probably 90 per cent of the hops
srown in Oregon this season have al
ready passed out of the hands of Wil
lamette valley producers. The state
ment is made by Harry L. Hart, one
of the most prominent operators in
tae country.
"While I would not be able to state
definitely what amount of hops re
main in the hands of the growers,"
says Mr. Hart, "I believe that not over
10,000 bs.les are left with growers at
this time. The exact amount will de
pend upon the exact size of the crop;
none of these figures being available
at this time. I make my estimate
from an examination of the sample
books."
There is a rather good demand for
hops at this time, although little bus
iness is passing. Considering the late
ness of the season bids for hops are
unusually good. While there was a
recent report that 20c had been offer
ed and refused for one lot of hops a
j few days ago, nothing could be con
firmed. The trade in general refuses
to say whether the price was offered
or not, bujt it is barely possible that
such a value may have been reached
for one lot.

follows:.

WEST PLANS FOR

(Continued from page 1)
quence the Government would need to
make no expenditure for the locks,
the state would save $150,000 of the
purchase price outright and the cost
of operation and maintainence of the
locks would be thrown onto the Port
land Railway, Light & Power Com
pany. "This plan will give the state fre-
locks at Oregon City without the ne
cessity of a heavy expenditure either
by the Government or the state,'' says
the executive. "The principal of
$150,000 in the state school fund will
remain intact and through the system
of G per cent loans the cost of tonnage
through the locks will be realized and
we have no bother and be at no ex
pense maintaining or operating the
locks."

Sealing Wax.
Sealing wax in the present form was
(irst noted in London in the middle of
the sixteenth century. A sort of earth
was used by the ancient Egyptians in
sealing papers and doctimeijts. The
Egyptians placed such earth on the
horns of cattle, and upon it was stamp
ed the seal of the priest. Thus were
identified the c-attle to be used in the
sacrifices.

MILL TO GIVE MEN
$2,000 XMASPRESENTS
The Willamette Pulp & Paper Com

$2000 among its employes as Christ
mas gifts. Ordinarily the pay day for
the mills would not be until December
23, but in view of the holidays, Mill
Manager McBain has changed it to
Saturday, December 21. This will
mean the distribution of more than
$27,000 in pay checks and extra money
on that date, and means much to the
merchants of the city.
FINE MS PROGRAM
A delightful Christmas program was
rendered at the High School Friday
afternoon. Professor Forbes and Mrs.

Speiger gave a recitation, Miss Irene
Hanney rendered a solo, Miss Curtis
rendered a solo, Miss Ada Mass gave
a recitation, Superintendent Tooze
made a short address and Harless
and Carol Ely gave several violin
numbers. The entertainment was thor
oughly enjoyed by the teachers and
pupils and was unquestionably one of
the' most successful ever held at the
school.
Miss Maud Hunstock, of the high
school faculty, showed probably the
best taste of all in giving presents.
Her selections were fine and appro
priate and were greatly appreciated by
the recipients. One to Mrs. Tooze,
wife of the superintendent, for in
stance was a large calendar, contain
ing a picture of Mrs. Tooze's home,

SHAW DECLARED -NOT
POLICE CHIEF
(Continued from Page 1.)
they straightway appointed Shaw
keeper of the jail, which, while it has
a comic opera sound, is nevertheless
a very good job. Besides which,
Shaw is a peace officer, as well as a
deputy "sheriff. In fact, if there is
anything that Shaw isn't in the way
of peace conservation, his friends
don't know of it.
Mayor Dimick has never been able
to straighten out the tangle himself,
so before quitting office he determined
to have the courts do it for him,
hence this true story.
C. D. Latourette opened up very
piano, but as he went on to relate
the perfections of his client as a po
lice officer who was not a chief, didn't
pretend to be chief, and never had act
ed as chief, he worked up a Bispham
like cresendo which became fortissi
mo as he told how the mayor wanted
to "stigmatize" his client, and stamp
the mayoral heel on the neck of a
perfectly good police officer. Spent !
with emotion Mr. Latourette took his
seat, and Attorney B. N. Hicks rose
to his feet and promptly moved the
court that Shaw be ousted from his
job, forthwith, rightaway, and that he
further be told just where he belongs.
Mr. Hicks alleged that Shaw was
sporting a star marked "Chief of Po- j
lice', and that he acted as chief at
council meetings; that he appointed
deputies, by his assumed virtue as
chief, of police, that his disclaimer as
not being chief of police was not con
sistent with his acts as an officer, in.
which he acted as though he were
very much chief of police, and taken
altogether Shaw was far -from being
the injured patriot that his learned
friend had pictured.
The mayor then put in a word or
two for himself. He told how Shaw
had solicited the backinng of mer
chants, church organizations and worn
ens clubs, to the end that he (the
mayor) might be compelled to appoint
him. How the council had bucked
him from the start, simply because
he was not the mayor they wanted.
How they had turned down Burns,
one of the best citizens in the town,
who had proved his value as a public
officer by twenty years of faithful ser
vice, and how they had in every way j
handicapped him in the police ques
tion. However, he redeemed them
somewhat by saying that on other
questions he and the council had
worked together in harmony to the
great gain of the town.
After a little more legal sparring,
in which our old legal friends Quo
Warranto, Laches, and Ouster took
part, the court decided that it would
give them a little time to get together
and would give a decision after lun
cheon. The result is that the court has de
cided that E. L. Shaw is not chief of
police, and has no right to act in
that capacity. This, according to Mr.
Latourette, is something Shaw has
never claimed to be, so the verdict
must suit him. It suits the mayor for j
it proves his contention that Shaw is j
not chief of police, and cannot act as
such. Evidently it is up to the coun- j
pit and the mayor. In the meantime j
Deputy Sheriff, Peace Officer, Jail '
Keepr Shaw is wondering where he
gets off.

GOVERNMENT AID IS
August Fredericks, of Circle City,
Alaska, is in Oregon City visiting his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Fred
ericks of Seventh Street. Mr. Fred
ericks says that conditions in Vlaska
call loudly for a more definite under
standing of the needs of the territory
on the part of the federal government.
Now that the period of easy money
is practically over, and it takes both
capital and hard labor to get the gold,
economic conditions more nearly ap
proach those in the states than has
ever been the case before.
Mr. Fredericks maintains that the
policy which is being followed at the
present time prevents any develop
ment of Alaska on the scale which
conditions up there impose. He leaves
for Cordova about the beginning of
March, and will mush by dog team
to Circle City, a trip of about twenty
to thirty days. He desires to be at
his property on Mastodon Creek, sixty
miles north of Circle City before the
water breaks.
