Mrs. L. C. Parrish Is Cited to
Prove Whether Ward Has
Been a Naughty Bad Boy.
PRINTERS MAY STRIK
E
IF WAGES NOT RAISED
Sunday. February 20, has been set as
the day for the advance In the wage
scale of compositors in job printing of
fices from $22.50 to $25.50 a week. Em
ploying printers met the demand for
an ndvnnce with a curt refusal. The
compositors then declared that If the
scale was not recognized they would
strike.
As far as can he learned the employ
ing printers have not changed front.
The journeymen printers will hold a
meotirrg today and another tomorrow
to determine final action. President
M. A Jones of the Typographical union
said yesterday that It was Impossible
to forecast what the results of the
meetings will be.
, As the largest producers of printed
matter in the northwest, Portland print
ers assert they are anxious to avoid
a strike, yet have averred they will
not meet the Increase. Many of the
shops, Jiowever, now pay more than the i
scale demanded.
A demand of bindery women for an
Increase In wages made some time ago
was refused and a strike ensued, caus
ing the employers to come to terms. I
This advance is Inconsiderable com
pared to that desired by the compos
itors. Greatly advanced cost of living
is assigned as reason why more money
should be paid.
Back of a citation to require Mrs.
L. 0. Parrish to appear In the county
court on March 10 and tell of her con
duct of the guardianship of ferry
Wood Kerr lies a strange story of a
sailor boy returned from his voyages,
of a mother Insane, an adopted mother
yielding to "spirit control" through his
guardian, and a unique will, under
wnlch he was to receive certain prop
erty when he became 21 if he had been
a tood hoy.
The young sailor has reached the
age of 21, aryj John F. Logan will make
an effort to Claim the property for him.
In former proceedings Mrs. Parrish had
declared that he has not been a good
boy, and her opinion in this respect ill
no doubt be strengthened by his long
absence away from her control..
The utory begins in Albany. Or., more
than half a dozen years ago. His fa
ther dead and his mother Insane, he
was adopted by Mrs. Dora n. Davis,
then Wife of Dr. Davis of that town.
of Honof for th boy. JuaVbetr her
ueatn, in a dying taiemoni written
out for her' by Myra Helm, aha said
aha. was much -disappointed In the con'
duct of the boy, that ahe wanted the
money 'used solely for hla education,
and desired It spent for him only If he
were worthy and .obedient. Otherwise
ha should' receive $1 and the balance
go to her cousins, Winifred and Leona
Payne.
In December, 1905..'' Mra. Parrish
loaned $818.76, all that remained of her
ward's estate, to her brother, E, W.
Helm, a traveling man. She took from
him a note to fall due In four years
Interest at 8 per cent. Thl four year
wae up last December. It appear the
Interest had been paid for nt least a
part of the time.
In March, 1906, an effort wae' made
to remove Mra. Parrish aa guardian.
It was alleged the loan was made with
out authority of court, that Edward
Helm was a speculator of no financial
standing, and that hla guardian ws
really unfriendly to hla Interests, aa
she had caused hla arrest on a charge
of stealing milk from her own door
step. It was charged that- Mra. Par
rlsh had made this charge agalnat her
ward as part of a plan to prove him
a bad boy and therefore unworthy of
his adopted mother's bounty.
Mrs. Parrish replied with spirit to
these charges, defending the loan to
her brother and assailing the boy for
his lack of obedience, he having left
her and gone to live With hla alster in
Portland, Mrs. Susie Kerr. In May,
t'joo. County Judge Webster handed
down a decision and order-in the case,
finding that the loan to Helm was lm
provident and unlawful, holding that
the security was insufficient, that over
$100 charged i:p for expenses by Mra,
Parrish should be disallowed, and that
Mrs. Parrish should collect the $818.75
note at once from Helm and should
give a new bond for $1600.
Mrs. Parrish responded to this that
she was unable to collect the note, again
asserted her faith In tne loan, and said
she was unable to do anything more
Since then Perry Wood Kerr haa been
away, and only a few daya ago- waa he
located by Logan, who learned he had
been at sea. Mrs. Parrish has filed
two reports of her guardianship since
the efort was made to remove her,
the last one during the present month.
She reported $679 due her ward and
nothing new since her last report.
Now that the. Helm note Is due and
Perry Wood Kerr has returned, the
whole transaction 1 again to be dragged
forth so guardian and ward may "have
it out." Interesting testimony is looked
tor when Mrs. Parrish comes In to
render ner answer to the citation.
Mrs. Parrish Is well known in Linn
county, where she lived for years on a
farm with her husband. She figured
in a sensational divorce suit, which was
once tried in Albany, and later filed in
Portland. She was granted a divorce
by Judge Catena last month after the
attorneys had settled the property
rights Involved, one consideration being
the dismissal of a slander suit brought
against prominent citizens of Linn
county by Airs. Parrish.

The club maintains that the property
owners of the east side who propose
to Install street lights should be al

contend that the' post adopted for the
west side Is too expensive. A commit

several days ago and requested him to

when there is a little fellow who gets
as hungry as any, and who calls the
shoestring vendor "daddy."
Down at Portland Commons there Is
a little lad who grieves and refuses to
be comforted. There are a number of
Portland people who miss a familiar
and shabby figure who used to supply
them with shoestrings.
"Old" Frank Rice, who was born In
France of Italian parents, who by face
was known to thousands in Portland, Is
dead. He died as he lived, selling shoe
strings. The little boy who laments his
daddy's going will testify that the shoe
string sale money was spent mostly for
him. Others will tell of the sympathy
they sometimes felt for the man who
lived in the City of Roses, who rarely
saw flowers and never possessed any
until he died and they were put on his
coffin.
He was burled yesterday. Apparent
ly he had no friends, but. they soon ap

tributed flowers. Dr. Benjamin Young,
assisted by Father Flynn and W. O.

boy, who was taken down to the Com
