POLICE CHIEF QUITS '
JOB AT GLADSTONE
William H. Miller, chief of police,
has resigned his post at Gladstone

to the city business. Percy A. Cross,
a patrolman, has been appointed in
his place.
A mad dog that has terrified the
neighborhood and had been running
at large through the city was killed

When the city sehools open Septem
ber 22 in Oregon City, there wi'.l be
about 1100 students clamoring for
books and other supplies at the city
stores.
Old books will be exchanged for the
new ones at the stores on a regularly
fixed scale but they will be made on
the grade basis. For instance, if an
arithmetic used in the fourth and
fifth grades has been cnanged by the
state commission, the stores will fur
nish the new book in exchange for
the old one at a certain definite ex
change price.
To make the ruling more clear, the
rates have been fixed so that fourth
,rade books, for instance, will be ex
changed for new fourth grade books
but fourth grade readers, as an ex
ample, will not be exchanged for fifth
grade readers of the new kind.
On the other hand, books that are
made obselete by the adoption of the
new list will be received at the stores
at a definite rate.
The books that will be used in the
city with the prices and the rate of
exchange are given on page four
where the detai's of the schedule
have been worked out for the bene
fit of the students of the schools.
EX-KING MANUEL
Portugal's Former Ruler Whose
Wedding Was Set For Sept. 4.
Effort was made some four years
ago to start a library for Oregon Ci'.y
people. The effort was productive of
results. The library grew until now
it is housed in its own home on one
of Oregon City's beautiful parks.
About a year ago the limits of
book service were entended to take
in all the small cities about Oregon
City and recently the trustees decid
ed that the service might be extend
ed over the entire county, if the peo
ple will 'ask for it.
Under the law, the county court i3
authorized to levy for library purpos
es.
Every county in California and some
in Oregon have already provided li
brary service for the rural districts.
From an educational standpoint there
is nothing more valuable than a li
brary. If one lives near - at hand,
books can be had by personal order;
if on rural routes, delivery can be
made by parcel post.
If one wants country library service
without expense, petitions should be
addresed to the county court asklns
that, a levy for that purpose be in
cluded in the budget which most be
made in December.

The boy was on the point of taking

the ticket and still had a good deal of
the money on him when found." He
spent about three hours in the city
buying clothes with his new found
wealth and making friends ' on the
streets. ,
The firm had given him the money to
place in the bank to its account. In
steady he took the next car to this city
and planned to make his get away at

before the train arrived on its way to
San Francisco and turned him over to
te:e detective who took him back to
Portland on the 11 o'clock car.
COUNTY TAKES BID
FOR MILE OF ROAD
Clackama3 county has started a road
campaign. The first contract, under
the system, was let Friday when W. H.
Counsell was given the construction
work of one mile of macadam along the
River road out of Milwaukie.
The improvement of that mile will
cost $6720, under the terms of the con
tract. . Other pieces of road' are to be
iaproved by the county court as rapid
ly as.the commissioners fel that thsre
is enough money in the treasury for
the work and that the improvement is
justified.
The court has already authorized or
declared its intention to authorize the
construction of bridges over several of
the streams running through the
county.

A modern high school with a well
equipped faculty is th eaim of the
newly incorporated city of West Linn
as one of its first improvements' after
the city officers are chosen.
Many of the residents of that new
town have decided that a high school
that is modern in every respect and
that has a thorough and capable corps
of teachers will be needed before the
city has worked for any considerable
length of time under its charter.
Though some street improvement is
planned and other betterments are
now being discused, the city plans to
make the improvements slowly in or
der to keep its expenses inside of the
net income.
First, howevfr, will measures be
taken for the securing of an ample
supply of pure water. Should Oregon
City get the Bull Run water, West
Linn would ask to b eallowed to tap
the pipe lines and would to gat its
water from the same source. If thi3
city does not decide to use the Mount
Tabor supply, West Linn plans to
make other arrangements and may
tap wells that are now being drilled
in that neighborhood.

CHICAGO, Sept. 12. William L.
Page and Wilbur F. Croner, of Chi
cago, who were commissioned to ex
plore the headwaters of the Amazon,
are believed by relatives to have been
slain by natives. Advices received to
day from the Peruvian government
state that members of a search expe
dition found a group of Indians in pos
session . of guns, baggage and other
property.
The head of the relief expedition
reported to the Peruvian government:
"I believe that the Americans have
been victims of foul play, as it seems
impossible that they should have giv
en up their arms and baggage whi'e
on a trip of this kind."
The last direct word received from
the pair reached Chicago February 3.
The letter was dated from Cajam
bamba. The Americans attempted to lay out
a trail between the old Inca cities of
Chiquita and Pajalen over which the
government planned to establish com
mercial connection between its Paci
fic coast ports and the Amazon re
gion. When last heard from they
were in the center of a district rarely
visited by white men.

MEDICAL SOCIETY IN SECRET
MEETING BREWS SCHEME TO
REMOVE APPOINTEE
WIIL APPEAL TO STATE BOARD
Plan all Sorts of Measures to Rid
County of Osteopath and Deter
mine to Make no Reports to
His Office -
Buzzing around the parlors of the
Commercial club like hornets in their
nest, the members of the Clackamas
County (Medical society laid plans and
hatched plots last night to oust Dr.
J. A. Van Brakle from the office of
county health officer and declared
that they would leave no stone un
turned to remoye from official posi
tion one who is not associated with
them and does net belong to their
school.
Every sort of a threat from the de
mand that the state board of health
interfere and oust the doctor to the J
uiiiuiaiuui uiai, umea ue luixueuiam- .
ly resign, the case wil be carried into .
the supreme court of the state has
been issued and the fight is now on.
A committee that will have charge '
of the forces in the field has been
appointed and the work placed upon
its shoulders. The committee is the
board of strategy for the Clackamas
County Medical society. In its hands"
will be placed the responsibility for ,
every move that the society will make
during its campaign against the os- ;
teopath. v. -
Won't Recognize Him
From now on, the local doctors will
refuse to recognize Dr. Van Brakle
as the county health officer. They re- '
gard it "as a direct slap at the pro
fession". They will make no reports
to him. 'They will ignore his position
as collector of vital -statistics. All re
ports on the health condition of the
county will he forwarded directly to
the state board of health. As far as
the local doctors are concerned, he
will not exist.
Not only that, but they plan to carry
the fight before the state board of
health. Petitions will be circulated
among the people of the county and
an effort made to have the state
board declare the office vacant and
invalidate the appointment that the
county judge has made. Interference
by the state authorities is threaten
ed and t'ie powers of the board will "
be stretched to the limit to carry out
the program of the local doctors, if
they have their way in the matter.
Unturn Every Stone
No stone will be left unturned to
accomplish the down fall of the doc
tor who belongs to another school of
medical practice from the members
of the society. Even into the supreme .
court of the state will the case be
carried and the test made of every
feature of the law that gives prom
ise of carrying out the designs of the
members of the profession.
So great is the opposition of the 1
regular doctors to the appointment of
an osteopath that they plan to go to
