A Wonderful Record. The report
of State Insurance Commissioner Fer
guson has Just been published. Forty
eight regular life Insurance companies
are operating in Oregon. Many -of
them have maintained active agencies
here for 25 years or more, yet Oregon
Life Insurance Company has passed
bv them at the rate of five or more
companies each year, and now stands
fourth as to the amount of insurance
in force In Oregon. Its nearest com
petitor of Pacific Coast companies has
$3,134,009 less insurance n lorce in
Oregon than Oregon Life. Its wonder
ful and unmatched low mortality record
Is the verv best proof that Oregon
Life is conducted on safe and sane

COXTRACTOTI MEETS INTRUDER
LEAVING HOUSE.
Visitor" Protests Innocence, but
Fleef When Mr. Marshall Steps
Inside to Deposit Package.
Facing an armed burglar whom he
encountered just as the Intruder was
leaving his house. R. A. Marshall, a
contractor, parleyed with the man Sat.
urday night, looking for an opening to
effect a capture. The prowler "sat in
the game" quite coolly and seemed as
anxious as his Interceptor to find some
peaceful way out. though all the time
he held a loaded revolver under an
overcoat on his arm. When the ten
sion finally broke the robber took to
his heels, with his victim in pursuit
until the fugitive was lost In the shades
of Sullivan's Gulch.
Mr. Marshall, who keeps bachelor s
hall In his concrete house at 658 Mult
nomah street, on the edse of the gulch,
had been out 'and was about to enter
his house when a stranger stepped out
on the porch.
"What are you doing here?" queried
Mr. Marshall.
"I lust dropped in to see a man, said
the stranger, who was well dressed.
"I think." said the owner or the
premises, "that you broke into the
house."
The stranger protested his innocence
and offered to conduct his questioner
to a place near by. where he said he
lived. Marshall accepted the offer, but
as he stepped inside the door to lay
down a package, the intruder fled and
made good his escape. It was found
that he had entered by breaking a back
window, but nothing was missed when
the premises were examined.

The world has passed through three
great revolutions, and is now. passing

during the ensuing week.
It was thought at first that $10,000
would be sufficient, but after thorough
consideration the mark was raised to
$15,000, owing to the development of
the district and the demand for more
space in the church building. This is
a community church, although under
Presbyterian domination.
The same method of canvassing used
last week will be followed this weeK,
by dividing the district and teams

BUDGETPLAHGRITIC1SED
INFORMATION GIVES OUT DE
CLARED TOO MEAGER. .
Scientific Estimating of Expenses
Said to Be Handicapped by
Present City Charter.
The method of preparing the annual
budget in Portland is declared to be
exceedingly poor and unscientific In the
eighth report of the New lorn Bureau
of MunlclDal Research.
"Wrong budget-making," says the
reDort. "is a chief sin of Inefficient gov
ernment. Although the making of the
city's budget Is the most Important an
nual governmental event of the year
to citizens of Portland, and is pudiic
business, the Council provides no means
for informing the public what Is In
tended to be done, what is going on
during the actual making of the budget
or what the result is alter action is
finally taken.
"Scientific budget-making in Port
land is handicapped to a regretable ex
tent by the present charter, which pre
scribes special tax levies for certain
functions, usable only for the specific
Dumoses for which the levies are made,
Instead of the Council being able to ap
portion money out of a single fund, or,
at the most, from two or three funds,
according to the varying needs of each
of the city's functions and activities,
the Council is limited Dy tnese special
levies arbitrarily from appropriating
more than the amount specified in the
charter.
"Sound municipal financing demands
that as a basis for judgment in adopt
ing a financial programme each year,
a statement be prepared showing on
one side the estimated available revenue
from the different sources and on the
other side the estimated expenditures.
Stets should be taken to install unit
cost systems In all departments, so that
at budget-making time the Council will
have available complete inrormauon,
not only of the quantity of work per

Everyone in the station joined in the
hunt, without effect, and a tense situ
ation was developing when Patrolman
Thatcher approached the hatless one
somewhat sheepishly and handed back
the missing hat.
A trusty prisoner who had 'cut chapel'
saw the hat lying on the bench and
assumed that it belonged to some
drunken prisoner. With the best of In
tentions, he picked it up and carried it
into the jail Just as the preacher's
party was leaving and, while a hunt for
the hat was going on up in front, a hunt
for the hat's owner was being carried
on back in the cells.
The worthy minister accepted back
his beaver rather gingerly and smiling

policemen.
