and Mrs. Hiram
George Wright post of the Women's
Relief corps and Columbia lodge of the
Rebeccas Joined hands Friday evening
In celebrating the golden wedding of
Mr. and Mrs. Hiram M. Russ of 346
Hibbard street Montavilla One of the
features of the evening was the oresen.
tation of a purse filled with gold to the
aged couple.
Mrs. Kuss has been a member or the
ost for over 20 years and both are af
iliated with the Odd Fellows or its
auxiliary. They were married In Pros
cott. Wis., October 10, 1868, and six
years later crossed the plains in the '
old-fashioned way. After living in va- j
llous parts of Oregon they came to'
Portland In 1877. Mr. Russ is a re-
tired dentist, having lost his right hand
two years ago by the explosion of a
vulcanlzer. They have four living
daughters, thirteen grandchildren andj
two great-grandchildren, nearly all of
whom were present at the celebration of
the fiftieth anniversary of the wedding.
GERMANS WANT TWO-CENT RATE
ALSO BUT THE KAISER HESITATES
Since the 2-cent postage rate went
Into effect between the united States
and Great Britain there has been a per
ceptible increase in the number of let
ters mailed in Portland for London and
the other -European cities. Persons
who have friends and relatives abroad
seem to ba writing more often now that
the rate la but 1 cents Instead of 5
cents as It waa for many years.
Since the If-cent rate went into erreci
with Great Britain October 1 there has
been a demand and at the same time
a movement among the German com
mercial enterprises for a similar rate to
this country. The United States offi
cials are willing, it seems, but it is the
German officials who hesitate.
Their reasons are obvious. Germany's
postal department is on a paying basis,
and the empire Is hard pressed for
funds. Consequently the administra
tion hesitates to do anything which
would lessen the revenue, whloh would
be at least a temporary result of a re
duced international poalage.
