The T'nited East Side Push Club, of the East Side, Is making arrangements to hold meetings to be devoted to the discus sion of the new city charter before the vote Is taken. It has been found that there Is opposition to the charter, partly on the grounds of misunderstanding of the provisions of the charter itself, and It Is thought that the best way to explain these points Is through public meetings. Members of the Charter Commission will be asked to give talks and answer ques tions. This course was pursued at the meeting In North , Alblna. where Dr. C. II. Chapman spoke on the charter. Meet ings will be arranged to be held In the East Twenty-eighth street hall, at Sun nyside. Mount Tabor Sellwood. Brooklyn, Kenllworth. Woodstock, Mount Scott, Multnomah Addition, University Park, Peninsula and Iower Albina and perhaps In other localities. Mission Circle's Annual Meeting.

Gentlemen: In the thirty-seven years that I ha-e been a part of this commu nity I have addressed you many times, but always through the medium of the local press. Generally considered, the circular letter is a vehicle of glaring misstatements announcements in the local press are Intended for the light of day. Many of you very properly give both time and money to aid tne Devel opment League. Chamber of Commerce and other enterprises for the general upbuilding of this state, consequently It is of Interest to you to read this. With ' the assistance of a few .other enterprising business men I founded Oregon Life three years ago. and so well were all preparations made before hand that not a single miscue has oc curred In the launching or conduct of the company; not a change of any kind has had to be made, either In our rates of Insurance or our manner of doing business. Our methods are a'oova criti cism, and have tho approval yf the b-st Insurance experts. In Oregon Life the state has the one company conducted entirely for the benefit of Its policyholders, and It Is admitted by the unpreju-li :ed that In the history of Life Insurance thero Is no parallel to the general progress of Oregon Life. Looking at the records of the best Eastern companies I find that In many cases It took ten years to bring them where Oregon Life is now. therefore, every citizen of Oregon can justly feel proud of the work we have done, and can well afford to lend his personal in fluence to the up-building of this com pany, one of Oregon's greatest enter prises, and each and every good Ore gonian is now asked to join In boosting Oregon Life. In tho advertising . col umns on thfs page Oregon Life gives ten indisputable reasons why it should have preference over every other com pany. Faithfully yours. Portland. Oregon. Feb. 15, 1909.

BEACH COTTAGE BURNED Mrs. Kru.se Charges Chimneys Had Been Closed and Water Turned Off, Causing Blaze and Preventing Succor. Charges and counter-charges on the part of Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Kruse fol low the sudden and mysterious burning of the handsome Kruse cottage at Gear hart Park Saturday night. The cottage was totally destroyed by fire, entailing a loss .of perhaps $7500. Mrs. Kruse declares she was led into a trap by which the house was ignited. Her idea is that an attempt was made to fasten incendiarism upon her. Chimneys In the cottage, she alleges, had been closed and blocked so as to cause a con flagration as soon as a Are was started In any of the rooms. And when the flames burst forth, half a dozen men stood by and watched them, refusing for a time to aid her in saving her own per sonal property or to extinguish the flames. . Mr. Kruse said last night he coold not understand who could have set fire to the cottage. If it was an incendiary fire, for he said he had no enemies at Gearhart. "The idea Is ridiculous." said. Mr. Kruse, "that I should have had any part in trying to burn the place, for It is my property and I would be the only one to lose by Its destruction. I suppose It was an aqt of revenge, but it was against me and no one else. "I bought the cottage of Mrs. Kruse two weeks go. The property was In cluded in the settlement made upon her, but I bought it and paid her for it. The fact that the water was turned off means hothing, for the water is shut off from all the beach cottages during the Winter. The fact that my men w uld not help Mrs. Kruse save her belongings is not significant. They no doubt acted in ac cordance with their feelings toward her." Mrs. Kruse returned from Gearhart Park last night ' She declared she was completely unnerved and maintained she had been made the victim of a plot to Implicate her in an attempt to destroy the property. "With my maid I went to the cottage yesterday," she said, "because I had just been served with notice by my hus band that I must remove my personal effects by March 1. The cottage and my belongings were a part of the $10,000 that Mr. Kruse is reported to have paid me when my divorce was granted. "We soon discovered that the water In the pipes had been cut off. So when I sent the maid upstairs to start a fire I cautioned her to be careful. I did not dare start a fire In the range,' for my discovery that the water had been cut off made me think something was wrong. "From the time we discovered the roof to be in flames until the entire cottage wn rlestroved was onlv a few moments. I lost my watch, $275 in money and all the clothing I had brought with me on the trip. I had no insurance on the property. "When we found the place was on flr I rushed out and begged the half dozen employes of Mr. Kruse who had congre gated to aid me in saving the furniture and my own personal belongings, but for a time no one responded. One man finally forced anothy into the building and we saved a few articles that were of little v"alue." Mr. Kruse said last night that he did not know whether the house was In sured or not, having directed his attor neys Immediately after the settlement with his former wife to see that the pol icy was changed In her favor. Two weeks ago a divorce was granted separating the couple, at Oregon City. Mrs. Kruse made sensational charges against her husband, who, according to reports at that time, agreed to pay her $10,000 in settlement of her claims. The cottage at Gearhart is said to have been a portion of the payment of this sum. It was elegantly furnished 'and is said to' have been 'ahied at. $4000. . The fur nishings amounted to an additional $3500. OBSERVE DAY AT SALEM ADMISSION OF OREGON TO BE COMMEMORATED. Today Is Oregon's Fiftieth Birthday as State Suitable Programme Ha9 Been Prepared .

MONTAGCE KEPLIES TO ITS CRITICS. Member of Commission Speaks for Centralized Power at Peo- . pie's Fornm. An address on the proposed new char ter by Richard W. Montague, a mem ber of the Charter Commission, at the Selling-Hirsch building, before the Peo ple's Forum, last night, developed Into a very spirited debate under the plan adopted of allowing ten-minute speeches In reply to Mr. Montague's arguments The speaker drew a temperate and un lmpassioned picture of the advantages of the new charter, pointing out In par ticular the benefits it provided in the abolishing of cumbersome municipal ma chinery now In voeue and concentrating I power and responsibility. He argued that under present conditions it was im possible to say what particular depart ment in the city could be relied upon to assume the direction and responsibility for particular, work. A number of questions were propound ed to Mr. Montague and special objec tions were voiced against the proposed limiting of candidates for office to two persons. Mr. Montague explained that this feature could be changed, by a spe cial election In 90 days, if the people so desired, and pointed out that the aim was to obliterate party lines at the pri mary selection of candidates. In the main the discussion was carried on with great good .feeling. Mr. Mon tague replied to the arguments of those criticising the proposed amendments to the old charter and gave as his opinion that while all human effort was suscep tible of criticism, the new charter was a measure which would go a long ways to giving substantial relief, both financial and political, to the people of Portland. He said it would compel the people to vote at the primaries or run the risk IT IS to give your life insurance to OrcgoriTIfc BECAUSE: 1 frrtn f f ,s the onlv ,,fe insurance com- Vtzo2UJJt Pany "Purely Oregon," confin ing its operations exclusively to healthy Ore gon. c ' (r-mnTiTff makes all of Its investments In 2.
