Big Crowd
By a vote of more than two to one,
the people of the Molalla district de
termined to levy a special cax of five
mills for good roads.
In the largest meeting that has been
held in this district in some time the
question of good roads was thoroughly
discussed. The people are enthusi
astic cer the proposition and have
determined that the solution to the
difficulties that face the new city
is to be found in better highways.
S. A. Douglas was elected road su
pervisor to handle the money that will
be raised by the special levy. The dis
trict plans to get all of the hard sur
faced roads that it can and to put the
ones that it now has in better condi
tion and to make them passable even
during the rainy season of the year,
The subject of good roads is an im
portant one in this district and the
people came out in force when the
question of a special levy was discussed.
Two more chances to become son-in-law

The Brotherhood of St. Andrew,
connected with St.' Paul's Episcopal
church is undertaking again this year
the raising of funds and distribution
of Christmas gifts for the poor in
and about Oregon City. '
For the past two years the brother
hood has tried to add some little
Christmas joy to those who- otherwise
would be forgotten. So much good
has been accoplished that the work
seems now to be - a permanent part
and privilege of the brotherhood's
Christmas work. i
Organization's Aim.
The aim is to supply every poor
family with gifts .food, clothing and,
under certain circumstances, money.
The children, however, are not for
gotten. It is their innocent pleasure
that prompts all the hard work con
nected with the matter; their joy is
made complete with gifts of toys,
candy, nuts, etc.
The first year the "citizens, regard
less of religious affiliation, respond
ed most generously, and when they
saw and heard of the good done, they
gave tne next year more bountiful
still. This year Oregon City has many
poor and has had much sickness, and
the brotherhood f eelsN sure that more
good than ever will be done; for the
simple reason that it is more needed.
The condition of every family re
ported is carefully and considerately
looked into and the proper help given,
underclothing for the mother and lit
tle ones, boxes of groceries, meats,
shoes and other necessities; some
times book rent is paid and a new
start given for the new year.
Careful Records Made.
Apparently the brotherhood from it?
past experience understands its busi
ness pretty well. It follows the simple
stvle of ei vine where! it is most need
ed and what is most needed. J
The brotherhood asks the hearty co
operation of -churches; societies, physi
cians, county officers and others in
reporting the names of the poor and
needy. Mr. Frank Barlow,, the found
er of this movement is chairman and
other members of the brotherhood to
whom contributions may be given or
information gained are, John R. Hum
phreys, E. A. Chapman, Dr. L. A. Mor
ris, Carl Joehnk, C. W. Evans.

THREATS TO QUIT ARE AGAIN MADE
Attorneys Say Companies Cannot be

Wall and Make Big Fill
on Water Street
Charges that the Portland Railway,
Light & Power company and the
Southern Pacific company are the
real opponents to the franchises of
the Carver and Clackamas Southern
lines were made at the city council
meeting Friday night.
Threats were also made by both
lines to quit the fight for the fran
chises when members of the council
proposed that the applications be
granted on condition that the railoads
improve the street and build a retain
ing wall. C. D. Latourette presented
suggestions to the council in which he
urged that the city require the com
panies be required to fill in to the
heighth of that wall, complete the
lines in a short time, provide for hour
ly passenger cars, a common user
cause, and automatic forfeiture feat
ures for violation.
The attorneys for the railroads
threatened to quit when this proposi
tion was made to the council. They
declared that no road could live up to
such requirements and construct the
line that has been planned.
The decision on the matter was
postponed. Present were: Horton,
Holman, Metzner, Long, Myers, Hall
Beard, Tooze; aWsent .Albright.
TO FUMIGATE ALL
OF RURAL
J. E. Calavan, county superintend
ent, may issue orders within the next
few days for a complete fumigation of
every school in the county districts
once every month.
Dr. J. A. Van Brakle, county health
officer, believes that he can reduce
the number of contagious cases iu ti e
schools 50 per cent .is the districts
will see that proper fumigation
methods are .carried out every month.
He believes that the schools have
been the center of a large part of the
contagion that has spread through
some of the district and has come to
the conclusion that most of it could
be prevented by proper fumigation
work. N
It is possible that the county su
perintendent will- take the matter in
hand and assist the health officer in
carrying out such a program to pro
tect the health of the children of the
schools and prevent a further spread
of such diseases.
Of course, any desired number of
"alienists" if paid enough will
swear that Hans Schmidt is insane.
