Corbett president of the Lewis A Clark Fair, has communicated with Senator H. E. Medina regarding a bill for an act providing a new seal for the State of Oregon. Ms. Corbett writes that It is essential that we have a state seal, as the present one does not conform wrth the requirements of the law of June it, ItBS. The bill which Mr. Corbett encloses In his letter to' Senator McGinn describes the proposed seal as follows: "That the description of the seal of the State of Oregon shall be an escutch eon Supported by it stars.

Mr- Pugue decided to give up his position with the Weather Bureau and come back to Portland in a private ca pacity, Mrs. Pugue was delighted, for she has never felt quite at home out side of Oregon. Of course, such an enthusiastic work er In local clubs did not fall out of line In Eastern cities. Indeed, she remem bers her year of work In Detroit with special pleasure. For real application she has never found an equal to the De troit Woman's Club, aa It is called. A two-hours' meeting was held each week for class study. Every member was expected to contribute of her beat, or she was made to feel her place waa wanted for a more ambitious woman. For years there had never been a musical number on he program. Mrs. Pague was entrusted with the calendar for the fol lowing year and she persuaded them to devote one afternoon a month tosuslc, original poems and stories. She left De trlot before the new year began, and has never heard Just how successful the meetings were. She was also a member of the great Twentieth Century Club of Washington, D. C. Once a month the members gath ered to hear a paper prepared by a rec ognized authority In his line. It was a privilege to hear the 'papers, but she nursed the personal work so empha sized In Detroit. Mrs. Pague was In Buffalo and Charleston during Exposition days. .She enjoyed, as so many did, the remarkable electrical display at Buffalo. The social feature of Charleston was quite as wonderful. The Four Hundred kept open haiwe for distinguished visitors and receptions and balls were given from week's end to week's end. She noticed, too, the bitter Southern animosity that has never died out, anO never will long as the school readers are compiled from war histories. Za 1853. The William O. Eliot Fraternity were carried back lant night to '62, as they listened to a detailed account of a trip across the plains as Miss Virginia Old of McMlnnvllle remembered It. By first introducing the people to be mentioned In her paper, she made their few pleas ures and many trials of personal inter est. The little company passed through tha same experiences that came to the stay at-homes. The first murder brought trial and punishment. Children were born and men died. Even a wedding with wedding finery was possible. Miss Olds described the gowns, attendants etc.. aa any reporter might do. The cere. mony took place, for example, on the darkened plain, brilliantly lighted for the occasion by burning mounds of saga. A wedding supper was to have been served, but the guests left hurriedly. when they saw the dainties prepared. They had their counterpart every single meal. Tne boys gave the couple a brief wedding trip in one of the wagons, and from that day on they were at home to subjected to a number of exasperating delays this forenoon, particularly on cars coming from the eEast to the West Side. Inquiry at the headquarters of the company elicited the Information that the delays were due to Jthe high water at Oregon City. This prevented the Port land General Electrld Company . from getting power to furnish Sufficient elec tricity to propel the cars. ITnJer the cir cumstances the City & Suburban Rail way Company was compelled to depend upon its own power house for the ci--rent. and the dynamos were not equal to the demand. The company thought that from now on there would be no more trouble.

A DAMNABLE IMPOSITION Chief Hunt has ordered a batfi tub. Therefore there Is consternation among the inmates of the city bastlle. To eat but two g-cent meais a day Is bad. To work on the rockplle Is worse; but to bat-he to feel the defilement of soap to remove the grime of many years; this, indeed. Is damnable. But the chief ts inexorable.

For the lust three or font year there have been charges and. counter charges of fraud practiced by members of the Council m the grant ing' of franchisee and saloon license.

" """ measure, That Oa franchise, One case In particular was the grant Ing of a gas franchise to the Citizens' Light A Power Company about 18 months ago. The company, which is backed mainly by Millionaire Lyman Smith of Smith-Premier typewriter fame, received a franchise at the hands of the Council that has been openly charged was got ten by fraud. When the application -was first made for the franchise it hung in committee for many weeks and looked very much like It would be defeated by seven members of the Council, a ma Jorlty, then designated as the "solid eeven," who stood together on every proposition that came up in connection with the franchise. Mr. Smith's company desired a fran chise so that it might compete with the Seattle Gas & Electric Company, which was selling gas to Seattle consumers at an exorbitant figure. The president of the old company is Samuel Hill, who married the daughter of James J. Hill, president of the ureat Northern Railway Company and famous for his railroad merger. Backers of Mr. Hill's company fought the granting of the new franchise on every conceivable ground. Changed Hi Vote. At the time they thought they had the measure defeated a well-known mem ber or the Council changed his vote. The bill granting the franchise came up for passage and It passed. The company is now operating in Seattle under that franchise. Immediately after the franchise went through a Story started that the city dad who had changed Ills vote received a big bunch of the stock of the new com pany, besides a good-sized cash consider ation. A supporter of the Hill concern openly made the .charge In the Council. Yesterday Councilman John Taylor was called before the Jury to tell of the alleged crooked transaction. It is said that he gave evidence that will make at least one member of the Council mighty uneasy. Another witness was Charles K. Col lins, president of the new gas company. The Jury wanted to find out If the Coun cilman suspected really has stock in the company.
