pealing his case and securing orders
for a retrial on a charge of extortion
while Councilman in this city, Attor
ney E. W. Bartlett, now of Pendleton,
has been vindicated by a Jury, which
today returned a verdict of not guilty.
With the weight of Gardinler's testi
mony of yesterday, in which the wit
ness said he divided the proceeds with
Bartlett, materially lessened by Judge
White, of Baker County, who at on the,
bench during the trial, there seemed to
be no doubt as to the outcome of the
case. The court, in his instructions,
said the money question was Imma
terial, that actual evidence of extortion
was the only question to solve. The
jury was out a- little over two hours.

FIGHTING THE BEEF TRUST" 226 ALDER ST., BET. FIRST AND SECOND
VOL. I. NO. 2S.
PORTLAND, OR., MARCH 6, 1908.
PRICK. YOUR PATRONAGE!.
A Plea (or Clean Meats, Clean Markets
In almost every city, large and
small,' of the East and Middle West,
market men are compelled by law to
keep their meats protected from dust
and dirt and insects. . No meats nor
cuts of meat may be exposed to the
street. Right here in Portland we are
the only concern that has put up a
fight for clean meats kept inside the
shop. The Government demands whole
salers to have dust-tight partitions,
germ-proof floors and germ-proof ceil
ings. There is a street city ordinance
compelling all meat dealers to keep
meats, covered while being transport
ed through the city streets. But why
be careful to keep meats clean while
being transported through the city, of
what use are germ-proof and dust
proof buildings, if the retailer may
place those meats where they may
gather all the unclean atoms of the
down-town district? It won't require
a $5000 laboratory to discover germs on
such, meats. Any thoughtful person
knows they are there. The baker will
protect his -pastry from street dust;
milk must be covered: butter must be
wrapped in paper; the grocer has to
hustle to keep his stock clean: but you
are nevn- sure of eating clean, health
ful meats unless you buy at Smith's.
Help us in our fight for clan markets
it's a fight against the Beef Trust.

both sides of us. but they do not belong- to
