MUD COMPANY ANSWERS Um Negligence Alleged By Utili . ty Against Man Injured in Accident That whatever Injuries were received by J. H. Harper on the night of July 1, 1922. resulted di rectly from his negligence. Is the contention of the Oregon Electric railroad in its reply to the dam age suit filed recently In the county clerk's ofrice against the railroad company. The reply states that notwith standing Harper's knowledge of the premises and of the switching of a train on a spur track near the Oregon Gravel company, he negligently crossed the spur track and stood in such close proximity to the track that a car struck hlin and caused whatever dandagea were sustained; j that Harper failed to exercise . his senses of sight and- hearing and his powers of observation; that Instead of keeping within the safety zone he' placed himself in a position of danger, as he had full knowledge Of the switching operations. The Oregon, Electric declares that injuries received by Harner were his fault, and asks that the action be dismissed. At the time of the'accldent Har Der was employed as a watchman for a paving plant near the gravel company's property. The railroad admits that he was injured about the" feet,, suffered pain and in curred hospital bills, but through no fault of the railroad company YES.WEHME This Is Song Superintendent Albert Sings at Auto Camp Grounds "Yes. we have no cherries."

I. car. wnen toia mai dkiu o Cherry City and not the rose city they Immediately ask for cherries and then comes the refrain; "Yes, we have no cherries." The Cherrlans may be advertis ing Salem in southern Oregonthis week, but according to Mr. Albert they are missing a big chance to advertise the Cherry City over the entire United States in failing to provide bright red cherry labels to paste on the windshields ot me tourists cars. The, Cherrlans provided neat cards ; for distribution last year with .the picture of the capitol, a bunch of cherries and a lot oi n formation iabjut the Cherry City. Thesi cards are 'not carried around as. the stickers are, ac cordfng to Mr. Albert. The tour ists seem to take a pride in see ing how many labels they can col lect' somewhat . like the mucn traveled persons who display their belabeled luggage. A conimittee of two Cherrlans In uniform visited the auto park each, evening last -year and the year before, but. this year appar ently no such arrangements have been made, Mr. Albert eays.

Bennett, who for the past several weeks has been .", making his headquarters in Salem in the campaign of the PRL & P com pany to interest Oregon people in Oregon public .utilities securities. has just returned from an inter esting visit to Los Angeles. He attended the informal session of the securities branch of all the big utilities companies of the west, ahd' gave them the Oregon film story of "The Romance of a Raindrop." This is-a beautiful. Impressive story of a raindrop, from its course up in the mountains of Oregon, down through all its var lous manifestations until it and its myriad neighbors come to run the tremendous power plants that are making the Oregon rivers fa mous, and from then on through the ; home. Industrial and social lifehat is made so attractive by the; use of the electric current coming from' the raindrop armies; They were so' impressed, with thii Oregon film, that Mr. Ben nett was persuaded to give it be fore other gatherings; one' a con vention or bankers.-. The' story of Oregon's beauties and power fa cilities made a profound hit with the Californians.- who though proud of their "Second New York" aa they term Los Angeles, nevertheless sighed the sigh of utter content as they saw the green cdolness of tne ' Oregon shade arid" tlfe Reality 6t the Ore gon flowers arid' the gTarideur of the forested Oregon," mountains. Mr. Bennett believes that he did a really great strokd for the Ore gon tourist business, as well as for the industrial recognition of the state, by showing this picture in arid California. ' .
