Our State Motto. "She Flies With
Her Own Wings" is the Oregon state
motto. At the very commencement of
this commonwealth In 18o9 the found
ers of Oregon foresaw that this state
always would be able to go it alone, so
to say, not dependent on any other
state for anything. Now that Oregon
Life Insurance Company is furnishing
the best there is in life insurance,
leaving no excuse for any citizen to
go to any other company, or any other
state for its life insurance, our state
motto is more appropriate than ever
before. ' .

Economy Is Sought. The Good Gov-

policy for economy, will insist that
one officer can perform all the duties
of sealer of "weights and measures, and
at the meeting of the league Wednes
day night at the Woodstock MetUotiist
Church will take up thi3 matter. J. R.
Gilstrap, member of the league, said
yesterday that outside of the City of
Portland there is little work for this
ofTicer to do and that the city officeF
can do all the work for county and
city. The Attorney-General has held
that separate officers must be ap
pointed, and the league proposes that
this technicality shall not stand in the
way of having one man on the job
instead of two, and if necessary will
try to have the law changed. At the
meeting Wednesday night the com
mittee on telephone investigation will
make a report.
Burnside . Bridge Will Be Open to
Pedestrians. In order to reopen the
Burnside bridge today to pedestrians
full crews of men were at work all
yesterday crowding work on the ap
proach and draw. If nothing occurs to
prevent pedestrians will start using
the bridge this morning. The repairs
are not completed, but far enough
along for this purpose. It will take
some time to relay the tracks for the
street railway company and it will be
about two weeks before the streetcars
may use the bridge. Several business
places have been closed temporarily
and will probably reopen as soon as the
public can use the bridge.
Rose City Park Mutualists to Dis

the Rose City Park Mutualists, or
ganized to operate a co-operative store,
it was decided to pay all obligations, if
any, and refund what money there is

of Rose City Park do not want a co
operative store and would not sub
scribe to the stock. A. H. Metcalf Is
the president and H. Iliff secretary.
They will wind up the affairs of the as
sociation. .

Market Theater will arrive in this city
this morning to appear at the Empress,
which stands on a site that was dense
forest when he entertained here for
the first time years ago on a stage
which had candles for footlichts. The
old-timer is George Richards, who has
grown gray in the business of making
fun on the stage, his first great success
dating from the time Charles Hoyt's
comedies became National favorites.
Richards played the role of "Mink"
Jones in "A Temperance Town," the
play which made Hoyt famous.
In every visit of "A 'Temperance
Town" to Portland Richards shone as
Mink," the town drunkard. Hoyt
thanked Richards for maintaining the
popularity of "A Temperance Town'
or years, and the dramatist likewise
gave Richards all the credit for making
the. comedy the greatest money-maker
he ever produced.
While Richards is Identified particu
larly with "A Temperance Town." his
later ventures on the legitimate stage
ept him prominent before the play
going public.
Richards has been seen in Portland
in "A Hole in the Ground," "A Midnight
Bell," "Are You a Mason?" "Cape Cod
Folks," "Peggy from Paris," by George
Ade; A Female Drummer, "The Bish
op's Carriage," "Pearl in the Pumpkin,"
The Broken Idol," "The Girl in the

comedy as "Mink" Jones won him prom
nept roles. His Empress vehicle is

OPPOSITION IS EXPECTED
Car Company Probably "Will Fight
Move for Lower Fares.
Although President Griffith, of the
Portland Railway, Light & 'Power Com
pany, refused to make any statement
yesterday it is believed the company
will oppose as bitterly as possible the
proposed ordinance drafted by City
Commissioner Daly providing for a re
ductlon of streetcar fares from five for
25 cents to six for 25 cents.
If the face of recent agitation for
reduced streetcar fares the company
produced figures to show that the cost
of operating could not stand a reduc
tion. This, officials of the company
say, is particularly true in Portland be
cause or tne iact that the city is spread
out over a large territory and the ride
for 5 cents is, on the average, longer
than in most cities. In addition to this
it is said the cost of employing men is
greater than in Eastern cities.
President Griffith and other officials
of the company probably will hold a
conference with Commissioner Daly
within a day or two to consider the
proposition at length. The company
will produce figures showing the finan
cial standing of the company under the
present rates.

The resolutions set forth at length
that these agitators should not be al
lowed to talk treason of the Govern
ment that had been saved through the
blood and sacrifice of so many brave
defenders. The city and county authori
ties were upheld in their efforts to sup
press these treasonable utterances.
It is further set forth in the resolu
tions that all foreigners found uttering
treasonable sentiments and denouncing
the flag on the street should be de
ported.
Many vigorous talks' were made In
support of the resolutions.

What better recommendation could
there be for Campbell's Chicken Soiip?
It has the real home flavor which
comes only from choice materials and
plenty of them prepared in the same
generous and careful way that you fol
low in providing for your own home
table.
This perfect soup is a pleasing sur
prise to any one who has never tried it;
and a double surprise in the simple
and easy way in which it is made ready
to serve.
Try it yourself. That's the
only way to realize how good
it is.
