HIDE AND WOOL
TRADE IS 'ATTACKED
Determined efforts are being made
by buyers of hides and wool to de
press both of these markets at north
west points. The claim is made that
the hide and leather trade is weaker
and lower at eastern points, there
fore quotations must be lowered to get
them into line.
According to available mail advices
from the east' there is no such weak
ness in the trade there. For instance,
the Boston Globe of February 5 says
of the leather trade:
"Business in leather shows further
improvement. Not only is there a free
movement of stock on old orders, but
new business is larger than it wasl
recently. The shoe manufacturers
are inclined to make frequent visits
and small purchases, but the aggre
gate of these takings is fairly large
and very satisfactory to the tanners,
many o whom are unable at the mo
ment to fill really large orders. A
case is cited where an export order
for 25,000 sides of hemlock sole leath
er had to be refused recently because
the house receiving the order was un
able to fill it.

BESTWATER OBTAINED
FROM HILL WELL
The Willamette Pulp & Paper Com
pany", ih one well it is boring, at a
depth of U? feet, found a fine vein
of water. The first 35 feet was eas
ily bored through earth, but the next
JO 5 feet was through solid rock, The
boring apparatus is still in' operation
and the contract calls for a depth of
200 feet. B. T. McBain, mill manager
of the Willamette Pulp & Paper Com
pany, said that with the water 80 feet
in the first well a larger well would
supply a large part of West Oregon
City and that there are to be six wells
.sunk. Oregon City may look forward
to a clear, pure supply from the West
Side, If pure water cannot be found
elsewhere.
CHURCH SPEAKERS
The Brotherhood of the Methodist
Church held its first regular meeting
and banquet Tuesday evening in the
Sunday school rooms of the church.
About 40 enthusiastic members of
the organization and their friends at
tended the meeting of the brotherhood
and assisted in completing the organ
ization. A delicious banquet was
served by the women of the church
to the men during the course of which
music was furnished by the "Ever
Ready" quartette and by the "Men's
Chorus ' of the church. The music of.
both organizations was well received.
The speakers were introduced by the
president, Charles F. Hageman.
George C. Brownell gave one of his
usual common sense talks. He said
that he believed it the duty of every
man to help the down trodden. It
was this that made Lincoln the great
man that he was, said Mr. Brownell.
He stated that from the beginning of
civilization it had been .the custom of
people to band themselves into tribes
or brotherhoods and now the modern
church brotherhood is but another
manifestation of the old idea.
Grant B. Dimick in his usual happy
vein gave a splendid talk along the
lines of fraternity and Christian broth
erhood. The address was frequently
applauded. Judge Dimick said that
he admired the man who had the
courage to stand for his convictions.
Dr. T. B. Ford made a talk on the new
brotherhood movement. Other speak
ers were G. L. Snidow, Professor G.
R. Bowland of Willamette, Dr. Hemp
stead and Richard Harrison.

Greaves, the most successful organ
izer the lodge ever had. The dinner
will he given on the evening of Feb
ruary 25, and will be the most elab
orate one ever held by the lodge. It
is probable that Mr. Greaves will be
substantially remembered. The meet
ing will be open not only to members
but their lady friends. The Knights
next Monday night will be the guests
at an iniatiation of Lodge No. 17
Portland. 1 Three candidates were
initiated at the meeting Tuesday

NOTED AUTHOR TO
ADDRESS BAPTISTS
Dr. Samuel Zane Batten, author of
"The Christian State." pastor, orator,
lecturer and teacher, will speak to
men at the Baptist Church Friday ev
ening of this week. Dr. Batten is the
secretary of the General Baptist
Brotherhood and Social Service move
ment and . holds the same place in
Baptist ranks that Mr. Stelzle does in
the Presbyterian Church. He is a
speaker of international fame and
brings a message well worth listening
to. A banquet will be held by the
Brotherhood at 7 o'clock, the women
of the church serving, and at the close
Dr. Batten will give his address. The
coming of Dr. Batten is one of the
rarest privileges, as he seldom visits
any church outside the larger cities.
A large attendance is expected.
C.T.T00ZE SUES TO
WEST VETOES BILL
REGARDING JURIES
SALEM, Or., Feb. 11. For the first
time in this session of the Legislature
Governor West swung the veto ax to
day and- lopped off the head of house
bill 98, introduced by Representative
Mann. This bill was for the purpose
of relieving circuit judges from read
ing certaing statutes when instruct
ing grand juries.
"I do not deem it wise to do away
with the long-existing practice of re
quiring circuit judges to read certain
of our criminal statutes when instruct
ing grand juries," says the Governor
in his veto message to the House.
"The members of that body come
from every walk in life, and may not
be learned in law. It is therefore
most important that it be made the
duty of some one in whom they have
confidence to point out and read to
them those criminal statutes which
have a direct bearing upon their dut
ies as grand jurors."
That this veto is of more import
ance than attaches to the - bill itself
is the belief of many of the Legisla
tors, who see in the Governor's deter
mination to hew to the line in the use
of his veto ax and let it fall on every
bill that he does not think is for the
public good, regardless of the attitude
of the Legislature.
All other bills that have reached
him, excepting one which he still
holds, have been approved. But they
have not been of really large import
ance. The remaining bill in his hands
is the one increasing the salary of
all circuit judges to $4,000 a year. It
is believed to be not at all unlikely
th&t it will meet the same fate as
house bill 98. ; .
The work' of. the newly organized
Baptist Young People's Union is di
vided into the following departments:
Department 1, Devotional First Vice
President, Daisy Coulon; Devotional
Superintendent, Stella Kellogg; Sup
