CITIES WRESTLE
TH
AGITATORS
While sailors from the United
States navy and citizens of Seattle
rakled and sacked Socialist headquar
ters in that city last night, destroy
ing literature and burning furniture
without hindrance by the police, Port
land was having another battls with
agitators; ana snerm Tom vvora
was the center of a lively running
fight.
A mob of excited men shouting
"Take him away!" and "Turn him
Moose!" who made a rush on Sheriff
Word in an attampt to rescue George
Reece, a socialist speaker, just ar
rested by the sheriff for using abusive
language at a street meeting on the
Plaza blocks, across the street from
the courthouse, precipitated another
riot at 9:30 o'clock last night.
In a running fight that followed,
deputy sheriffs and plain clothes men
twice were compelled to form a line
across the sidewalk in Third street
and in Salmon and hold the mob back
with their clubs.
the time the shoriff and a hand
ful of deputies had fought their way
around to the courthouse entrance in
Fourth street they had arrested four
more men. One of them, James Greg
ory, received a deep gash under his
left eye in a mixup in which ha en
deavored to slug the sheriff.
GOOD GAME PLAYED
BY CHAUTAUQUANS
The tenth game of the Chautauqua
series, "played Friday afternoon at
Gladstone park between Oregon City
Commercial club and Logan, was won
by the former by the score of 10 to
7. The game was the most interest
ing of the Chautauqua league so far,
and was attended by a large crowd of
enthusiastic fans. From the scart it
was doubtful which side had the ad
vantage, but in the eighth stanza the
club men ran in five runs which made
the score 10 to 6. In the ninth inning
Iogan made one more run.
Errors were common, but not as
common as usual. Telford played a
good game and allowed only 7 hits,
while Brunson of Logan allowed 10.
Wm. Sheahan wlil leave Saturday
or Bolivia, 111., to visit relatives
there. Mr. Sheahan will also visit
Chicago and other eastern cities.
GIRL IS BITTEN ;
BY SAVAGE DOGi
.The vicinity of Molall a avenue and!
Seventh street had a mad dog scare i
Friday evening, and m the course of i
the excitement the eight-yar-old
daughter of Charles Krohner, former !
chief engineer of the fire department, 1
was bitten in the calf of the leg by i
a mongrel cur that caused the excite- j
ment. Before biting the child the dog
ran at and bit a horse that was be
ing driven along Seventh street.
Immediately following the attack
of the dog Krohner notified Chief of
Police Ed Shaw, and he, with Pound
master Edward Giai?o hurried to the
sr-ene ano rounded up th dog. The
animal gave Poundmaster Glas3 a
vicious fight before it wa3 captured,
snapping and biting t him when it
was cornered. Glass succeeded in
wraping his coat about the beast, and.
with iU vbus incapajiiUT-!! from fur
ther mischief tvoz it : til:- city pound
where it - wis securely kennelled for
observation.
The injury to the girl's leg is not
extensive, and as the wound was im
mediately treated, it is not believed
that' any serious resu'ts will follow.
County Veterinarian Eddy will keep
the dog under observation until it
can be determined whether or not it
is suffering from rabies. Its owners
had not obeyed the council's request
to muzzle all dogs in the city.
PRESIDENT WILSON AND MRS. WILSON REVIVE 4.D CUSTOM
THISTLES OF SIZE
LORE SEATTLE
Rancher Barney, of Maple Lane,
who recently brought to the publicity
department of the Commercial club
a thistle that had acquired the height
of nine feet four inches, appeared at
Secretary Frsytag's wonder emporium
again on Friday, this time bearing a
thistle 12 feet in heights. The thistle
is a magnificient thing, and is on
display on the sidewalk, it being im
possible to get it into the exhibition
booth. Mr. Freytag says he is think
ing of having it sawed up into sec
tions, and of selling them as souve
nirs of the'fertility of Clackamas
county roadside soil.
Things grow at Maple Lane. B.
A. Andrews has brought in some oats
that are six feet in height; and J.

Shortly before the marriage of th e Princess Louise and the Prince,
Enrst August, of Cumberland, the Kaiser's daughter and her fiance, set the
fashion of walking upon the streets of Berlin hand-in-hand. Formerly it
had been considered very poor form in good society to do such a thing.
Apparently , the custom has spread to the United States, for the accom
panying photograph, taken at the sum mer capital, Cornish, N. H., shows
President Wilson and Mrs. Wilson ho lding hands on the street. Perhaps
it was merely shyness on the presi- dent's part at having his photograph
but that is not likely in view of the fact that he is smiling, as is Mrs.
Wilson, and in view of the fact that he has already been photographed
several times. Very soon it may bee ome the common custom for engaged
and married couples to walk upon the streets hand-in-hand.

Karl Gostavranich felt nM3' than
ordinarily warm Friday aftwndon and
went bathing in the Willamette, pick
ing a secluded and sandy r'ieach on
the west side ofthe river for his
abolitions. Divesting himself of his
clothes he laid them neatly in a pile
on the shore, and Mtttwed as Adam
.used to dress he waded into the cool
waters of the river.
'. Four men, at present unknown to
the county authorities, observed Gos-
tavranich, disporting himself as a
: river-god, and decided it would be a
; good time to replenish" their empty
pockets. So while the bather was en
; joying life they descended upon his
' clothes, and removed therefrom a per
! fectly good and valuable gold watch
! and some money.
GDStavranich, refreshed, left the
river just in time to see the quartet
i slipping quietly into Jthe bordering
willows. When he found his clothes
i disturbed he made a hasty inventory
; of his effects. Dressing as quickly
' as the wet condition of his body would
j allow, he hastened to a telephone and
I notified the sheriff's office, and Sher-
iff Mass and deputies left at once for
j the scene-.. Other than footprints they
: found no traces of the thieves, nor of
I the bather's be'ongings.

ASONIC TEMPLE BLDG.
OREGON C I T Y, ORE;
Prof. Beckwith, bacteriologist of
the Oregon Agricultural colege, thinks
that Oregon City's present water sys
tem is pretty good, and approves of
the filter plant maintained by the
city. In an investigation he made on
Friday he thoroughly inspected the
i water works and filtration plant, and
expressed himself as being much
pleased at the manner in which it
i was kept up and constantly attended
to.
After his visit to the fi'tration plant
which he declared to be as 'complete
and effective as any he had seen Prof.
Beckwith made a trip to the Engle
brecht property and looked over the
test wells bored there. He was giv
en samples of the water for further
examination. While making a thor
ough inspection or tiie property and
i neigrbor'hood about the wells, Prof,
j Beciiwith declined to make an com
ments thereon, saying that he prefer
red to test the water before voicing
any opinions.

GLADSTONE PARK. July 18. Sam
Jones' son in-law,' Hon. Walt Holcoml,
of Nashville, Tenn., pulled off a horse
race at Gladstone Chautauqua Friday
afternoon before 3,00 J people. It was
his own original "horse race," not ex- j
actly a contest in the flesh, but it
was every bit as thrilling, and the ap
plause given ' the speaker as his
"white" horse came thundering down
the field aiid crossed the tape a few.
feet ahead of the "bay," was just as.
boisterous and vociferous as that ac
corded the winning driver at the coun
ty fair.
Holcomb's style is almost as origin
al as that of his inimitable father-in-law.
In. his peculiar Southern drawl
lies the secret of his humor. : His lec
ture, too, is original in theme, and
in the vernacular of the horseman he
pictures a thrilling contest between
the "gray horse" of socialism; the
"bay horse" of capitalism; the "black
horse" of anarchy, and the "white
horse" of altruism. Being a horse
man himself, and the proprietor of a
large stock ranch in Tennessee, Hol
comb naturally makes his descriptoin
of the steeds and their race most ef
fective, and occasionally he "puts
over" a few pet slang phrases that
would make the usual lingo of t'he
jockey seem exceedingly tame. But
he gives -his message, and does it
most effectively.
His lecture is a sort of a moving
picture "kinetophone" in which he is
the talking machine. Of course, the
good old steed called altruism wins
by a nose, and it is well, for the sake
of rightousness and justice that he
does. The bay horse of capitalism,
wcih the most promising start, fags
out toward the last, while the old
gray steed of . socialism, overworked
and under fed, runs a good enough
race, but doesn't put any noticeable
effort in the contest no personal en
deavor to capture the honors. The
black horse of anarchy, which accord
ing to Mr. Holcomb takes two forms
in this country, anarchy of the streets
"as you are having right down here
In Portland, and anarchy of the home,
the best breeder of the street anarchy
there is." In other words Mr. Hol
comb believes the divorce evil one
of the great -causes of the defiance of
the government, which he says is ap
proaching an alarming stage in this
country.
"I don't know what t':ose fellows
are after down in PortlancL. I see by
the papers they're kickin' up quite a
rumpus. Those X. W. W.'s are a "bad
bunch the 'I Wont Works' they are
and they've got to lve handled firm
ly." -
Socialism, according to the speaker
is a cross between religion and poli
tics. It's a big movement, he says,
but the trouble is they don't kick in
the right way. They are largely made
up of malcontents who deride the gov
ernment and want to change the or
der of affairs, because they haven't
enough 'get-up-an-Iiustle" about them
to make a place for themselves in the
world. "It's because every man don't
try to do the little job he has on hand
just a little' better and just a little
quicker than his neighbor, that we
have the old gray norse plodding
along at the same old gait, in the
same old harness, and on the same
old routine."

W. Riley, of McMinnville, on "Atmos
phere in Education or Choosing a Col
