He sent out cards all over the. state for registration of babies born in Oregon in 1934 and got back only 6766 while he thinks he should get 11,000 ior 12,000; and believes there were really 14;400 babies born ;in Oregon last year. So Pr. Strieker, the man in charge, has been sending out SOS calls for more babies: or rather for more baby cards, because it is 1934 babies. , '-t. , ' I We confess to being somewhat dumb on this baby regis tration business. We thought Oregon had a good registra tion system, birth certificates sus bureau is putting on this drive through the health off ice to register the babes again. We strongly suspect it is to pro vide more clerical work under the census bureau, and perhaps to get some of the backward states started in vital statistics. But! whatever the purpose every baby should be registered with his name and his parentage. Thus he will be able to prove his claim to a big inheritance some day, or to get; a passport with less trouble than Dad McGilchrist, or to join tne army or stay out or the army JSo all parents of 1934 babies should send in the birth card: and if you haven t had a tor or from the county department of health, or from the state health office, Portland.

In the group are Sen ator McAdoo, McKellar of Tennessee, Tydihgs of Maryland and Gibson of Vermont. According to reports the Filipinos - are cooling off toward independence as they see the probable plight the islands will be in if turned adrift in the cold sea : of world politics and trade rivalries. Manuel Quezon; chief agitator for freedom, is said to be hedging on the deal: and others want some kind of protectorate continued, perhaps so tne U. s. wiu underwrite their follies and guarantee their po litical and financial obligations. , H -. - j ;The 6,000 Americans resident oh the islands look Ion the Independence to come at tion period with foreboding. Facing tariffs then on their exports to this country, and with the uncertainties of native locar government, most of them are said to be planning to .withdraw from the islands. . As time passes the Filipinos will probably be more and more reluctant to see the stars and stripes pulled down.

"When John married Margaret, he adopted these chUdren as his own. "The boy Tom, who, aa a lad of 14, had gene , west with his fa ther, was to become picturesque character in the subsequent . his tory of Oregon and worthy step son to John McLoughUn. The girls married early and remained In the east" (This is largely new matter. The fact that there were three full sisters of Cap L Tom McKay was unknown to most writers of early Oregon history. Or any fall sister at alL One of the three, Margaret McKay, was married to Lieut. Mc Connack of the British army: an other to Capt. McCargo, who ran a merchant; freighter on Lake Su perior, and the third to Chief Trader Sinclair of the Hudson's Bay company. Rev. John IL Frost, of the Lea mission 'on Clatsop plain, wrote in his Journal that he was called to Fort George (As toria), January 9, 1842. to offi ciate at the marriage of Francis Ermatlnger to Miss Catherine Sin clair, and Frost said Ermatlnger was a chief trader of the Hud son's Bar company and that tha bride was a granddaughter of Dr. McLoughlin. She . was grand daughter of Mrs. McLoughlin, and a step granddaughter of the doe- tor.)' - :.., a Resuming the Montgomery text: One wonders whether John,, de spite his admiration for Margar et'a charm and innate wisdom, may not hare thought twice-be fore taking a, wife with - Indian blood. -Saeh marriages, howerer, were the order ot the day. They were. In fact, the only ones. Those early traders knew only too well that- white girls could not stand the rough life at far flung out posts whereas Indian women and half breeds knew no other. Mar garet, with her Indian, heritage, could follow the doctor 'wherever he went, and he could not hare found anywhere a more loyal or helpful companion. Indeed she was to prove a model of self sacri fice and wifely devotion. . .. . Not withstanding tha fact that Mar garet was nine yeara John's sen ior, she proved, from the rery first, a devoted and understanding companion. ... Most ot the time. in the years immediately follow ing her marriage, aha spent at Fort William. . . ..By 1821,' four children had been ; born: John, Eliza, Eloixa and Darid. . . Eliza's birth year Is not known, but Elol- aa arrived in 1818 and David in 1821. . . . We hare already sug gested that Dr. John, at the time of his marriage, waa no stranger to romance. Indeed his experience with women, howerer limited it may have been, had netted him a half breed son named-Joseph, Whether or not the child was le gitimate is a moot question and one which most writers on the early west hare, for reasons ot their own, evaded." (Hera Mont gomery argues, on account ot Dr. McLoaghlln'a high sense of jus tice and morality, that there mast seem in the predicament of the stop at "Whoar day,- more deserving of print hare been a former marriage. He concludes: "The boy Joseph, it would seem, was legitimate in the same sense as were his half-broth ers and halt-sisters.") a e 'a After Mrs. McLoughlin and the children came to Fort Vancouver, Joe was sent for. Mrs. Dye, who in McLoughlin and Old Oregon,' did not mention Joe, has said that it. was upon the insistence of Mrs. McLoughlin that Joe, son of "the other woman, waa sent for. The reader has his ow'n guess. The in ference Is either , that Margaret was a saint in the way of a for giving wife; or else Montgomery is right in his conclusions Joe lived on the Yamhill river; had a land claim there. He was present at the July 6, 1843, meet ing at Champoeg, and moved the adoption ot Article 1 of the prori sional government constitution. which guaranteed religious liber ty, reading: "No. person, demean ing himself in a peaceable and or derly manner, shall ever be mo lested on account of his mode of worship or religious sentiments.' In the official record of the pro ceedings, his name appeared as J. McLoughlin; so, that a few early writers of history said Dr. John McLoughlin was present, which, of course, he was not. V -a Dr. McLoughlin's great chal lenge and supreme opportunity came with the move to end the open warfare between tha forces of the Hudson's Bay company and the North West company, by form ing a merger. Dr. McLoughlin was sent to represent his company at tha London conference. He prored himself a statesman and a dlplo mat la the London meetings, and to his ability was dne tha favor able terms secured by his North westers in the merger, though the name of the younger concern was wiped out in faror ot its ancient rival running back to the original grant of the rast but then vague domain called Rupert's Land. Such a man was needed, tool when the Jme came to make the merger harmoniously workable. To this task Dr. McLoaghUn de voted himself, and perhaps no oth- er living man could have done so well in smoothing out the rough places ao. that the ancient concern with its; added responsibilities could function without many of serious difficulties. His next big responsibility came in 1824. when Dr. McLouahUa was given the post of chief factor on the Columbia which meant the empire- in size west of the Rockies. July 27, just 17 days aft er receiving his appointment. Dr. McLoughlin was on his way west from York Factory, headquarters on Hudson bay of the Hudson's Bay company bound tor the dis tant Oregon country. Here is a note from Montgomery's book: jj "At Jasper House in the heart of the Rockies, where the party arrived on the evening of Oct, It, tha doctor met with an unexpected surprise. Waiting there was his stepson, Thomas McKay, who had coma up from tha Columbia sev eral days before with letters.

All she could do was talk talk talk answer questions, make de nials. . Cariotta began by baldly accusing her of stealing Earl Harrow. - "But I didnt. How could IT He's a grown man. He knew his mind.
