Bank Clearings for AVekk. Bank

Figures for yesterday were $756,788.72,
while for the corresponding- day of last
year the total was $81,995.50. While the
balance Is against Portland for the past

was at its crest, whereas time will be re
quired to recover from the effects of the
financial stringency of last Fall. Port
land bankers are optimistic and believe
that things are readjusting themselves
and that within a short time the compari
sons with last year will be favorable.

MAYOR MAY SHUT SALOONS
Court Likely to Order Writ of Man
damus in "Kenna Case."
CHICAGO. May 16. The Appellate
Court for this district will decide on
Monday what is known as the "Kenna
case," whereby it Is sought to close
the saloons of Chicago on Sundays. In
this case, so called because the saloon
of Alderman Michael Kenna is named
as the basis for the petition, the court
Is asked to issue a writ of mandamus
ordering; the Mayor to close all saloons
in Chicago on Sundays. Were such a
writ to. issue, there would be nothing
for the Mayor to do but obey it. He
might refuse,- but if he did he would
promptly find himself in jail for con
tempt of court, and no Mayor would
care to do this, at least Mayor Busse
says he would obey the court.
In case the Appellate Court issues
OLDEST MEMDBR OREGON
STATE GRANGE,

111!
Omrar Euton, Chnplain.
EUGENE, Or., May 16. (Spe
cial.) The oldest active mem
ber of the Oregon State Grangre
is Oscar Eaton, chaplain of the
State Grange; which completed
its annual session here yester
. day. Father Eaton, as he is
known to hundreds of Grangers
in the state, is SS years old, yet
he is very active in mind and
body. He has been chaplain of
the State Grange for years and
was re-elected at the annual
election Wednesday. He is also
chaplain of Oswego Grange and
of his own, Pomona Grange. He
has been very regular in at
tendance at the meetings here
and A1 ever needs any one to help
him about. Of all the officers
of the Oregon State Grange.
Father Eaton is the only one
who has a life-long lease upon
the office. No one ever thinks
of having any one else for
chaplain of the Grange.
the writ the question would at once
be. "Is the Mayor bound to close the
saloons a week from tomorrow?" It
would be a curious situation, exactly
the same as when the question whether
the query, "Shall saloons be open sa
loons?" should go on the "little" ballot
recently was fought over. The only
difference would be that the attorneys
in the Kenna case on each side would
have to take diametrically different
views of the law from the views they
took in the little ballot one.
