COUGAR CROUCHES THE CHALLENGER NEW PLAN OF ATTACK ON FOES DEVISED BY LEAGUE Issue JhatHas-CClp'secl Thres to Be Used Over State. ' (BpeHil ta The JootoiH Hlllsboro, Or., July 14. Two saloons at Banks, one at North Plains and one at Timber were closed by the sheriff Saturday night All were operating under the hotel provision of the new license law, and it is stated that an in spection made, last months at the re quest of Governor West showed that the hotels were bona fide. In the absence of Sheriff Roeves a definite statement cannot be secured, but It Is utderstood that he was notified by the governor Saturday that according to the opinion of the attorney general a new license must be secured end that the bars can not be operated under the licenses granted prior to the law taking effect. This Is said to be a move of the Antl Saloon league, and It is repprted that the point will be rained in all counties. If successful, It would mean the closing of hotel bars In unincorporated towns until new licenses could be secured. The saloons closed did not reopen this morning, and the proprietors came to Hlllsboro and laid the case before the county Judge. Other members of the court will be present this afternoon and the matter will be taken up. The sa loonmen will ask a permit to run until formalities necessary to secure a new license have been complied with,, and It Is probable that If the permits are re fused an Injunction suit to restrain the sheriff from Interfering will be filed and the question of whether the old license are sufficient left to the courts to settle.

The proposed establishment of such a court is in lino with recommenda tions of the few York municipal re search bureau which recently gave a report of the various departments of the city and their workings.

In the meantime, the two cyclists had come to a closed bridge across the Clackamas river and had turned back. The two parties met and Mumpower exhibited his star, placed the boys under arrest and disarmed McNaughton. The officer turned his machine and started back towards Oregon City with the two boys, leading their motorcycles, ahead.

"Oh, we won't attempt to get away," said McNaughton, but he immediately threw on lila power full force,, made a daring leap to. the seat and was away almost before tbe deputy realised What was boing done.
