birthday Jast Bundsy.. Mr. Luck has
always been In vigorour health until
the past few weeks. At present he la in
rather poor health, his great age having
begun to tell upon his iron constitu

James Luck was born in Suffock
county. Englsnd, March $. 1815, just
three months before the battle of Wa
terloo, when the Iron Duke defeated the
great Napoleon. He was five years of
age when George IV was crowned king
of England, and attended the coronation
ceremonies of William IV when he was
15 years of age. When Queen Vic
toria was crowned he was a, young man
of 22.
Mr. Enck came to America in 1828,
and married a New England girl in 1844.
He cast his first ballot for Zacpary
Taylor. For some years he lived In New
York, but decided to locate farther west
and moved to a farm in. Oconomowoc,
Wis. He had learned the milling busi
ness In Wisconsin, and his neighbors in
the Wisconsin town persuaded him to
establish a mill there. He followed this
occupation for 40 years, and retired
from active business st the age of 75
years.
Mr. Luck has always been a man of
extraordinary vigor, and at the age of
0 he ascended nearly to the summit of
Mount Hood with a party ot friends.
The climate of western Oregon la so
nearly like that of England, with its
gentle rains and soft winds, that Mr.
Luck has always felt at home in Forest
Grove, where he has lived for a score
of years with his daughter, Mrs. John
Bailey. - .'

Insulted arid we don't propose to stand
for that " Mrs. Clark said.

lowed to smoke during a session of the

Mr. Baker then stated that he would

; "J think I have shown that If wa had
a Plying trust here we would not hsve
let the biggest contract of the year tha
Kossmere contract go to a firm in
which we, have absolutely no Interest I
think I have shown thst our work 1
permanent and good. I will further
state, and X challenge denial, that Port
land is' now getting better paving at
less coat than any other city in the
country. , t t r
Senlea Control of Mtaatloa. .
"The whole scheme of the Associa
tion of Western Portland Cement Manu
facturers' Is to force Portland to use a
concrete baae, buying the cement at
th association's price. The records will
bear me out that last year cement cost
ll.sl a barrel. It Is now II a barrel,
and you can go to the alx California
companies xand the two .Washington
companies and you can't get it for a
cent less. There isn't bigger trust
anywhere ; so far as ' the northwest is
concerned, :
"Arid we don't control the situation
here. The records will show that fully
70 per cent of the paving awarded last
year was to Independent companies In
which we have no interest.
"In getting out specifications the city
engineer has no choice . but to make
competition open to standard paving
under the Ellis amendment and com
petition is open. That is the- chief
cause 0 complaint on the part of those
who by false atatements would make a
cose against us.".- , ,
