VISITS CITY AFTER
SIXTY ONE YEARS
George H., Greer of Dundee
Yamhill county, in his 90th year.
visited Salem yesterday for the'
first time since 1864, when he
held .a pastorate In the Method
church here. Mr. Greer has
wealth of snow white hair, a flow
ing white moustache and a white
beard. He has never worn glasses
and has been an untiring reader
all his life. It was to have his
eyes examined that he came to
Salem, and incidentally to viait
R. E. Aiken, a cousin.
Mr. Greer crossed the plains by
ox team in 1852, coming from
Philadelphia. He walked moat r-f
the way, and the first thing !i
did In Oregon was to buy a pal
of boots on Stato street, then the
only street in Salem. His family
continued on to Kings valley,
where the King family was tl en
the only group of humans behtp.s
south of Salem in the Willamette
valley.
Leaving Salem In 1864 M'
Greer took a pastorate in Dallas,
where ho stayed for two years. He
next went to Yamhill, then -to
Olympia. where he forsook the
Methodist church and wcnl to t!i
Unitarian faith. He still lovea th
Metbodi-st people and their re
ligion, although he believes now
that there is only one true religion
"love for God and love for
man."
Mr. Greer was a circuit rider
from 1360 to 1K64 throughout tliis
section of the Willamette valley
He was well acquainted with Ja
son Lee, founder of Wlllamotte
universtiy. Mr. Greer was inter
ested in the statue of the circuit
rider on the state house grounds
"The man on the horse should
have been provided with spu:
criticised Mr. Greer. "The oook
under the man's arm looks mor
like an almanac than a Bible,'
also claims Mr. Greer.

FISH BOARD
BILL PUT OVER
UNTIL MONDAY
(Continued from Page One)
Ben a tore so pledged, or even t
confirm or deny guesses as to
their Identity.
Should development over the
week end find the fish men still
unable to break this bloc, it Is an
ticipated that the bill will be
passed by the simple majority
they now hold, cent over to the
house, where its passage by a two
thinks vote is nsuurcd, and then
concentrate their argumentative
attack upon the opposition In
hopes of prying loose enough
votes to override the veto that is
sure to come. So far as can be
learned no pressure of any kind
has yet been brought to bear up
on any senator to line him up.
Hopes were revived this morn
ing that a compromise would .be
reached with the governor where
by the game . commission bill
would be abandoned, Commis
sioner Price removed by the exec
utive and replaced by a man suit
able to the other members of the
commission.
It was also pretty generally
understood that few if any of the
other measures directed at the
governor's powers will be seri
ousty pressed until there is more
assurance that they can muster
the required 40 votes In the house
and 20 in the senate. In short,
the hamstringing program now
appears to have fallen flat.

CLEAVER SAYS
BOWER DOESN'T
ENFORCE LAW
The last shred of evidence and
testimony was gathered up by the
prohibition department investigat
ing committee yesterday, when
George L. Cleaver, prohibition
commissioner, was again on the
stand. He was the last witness

activity. In the main he denied
political activity in the counties.
though he admitted that he had
urged that someone be gotten li
the field against Denton G. Uur

ticularly if, during his participa
tion fn the LaKollette movement,
he had used that political connec
tion for or against any candidate
for a state office. Cleaver ex
plained that be hud left the execu
tive committee of the organization
when it appeared that his presence
on the committee might be a vio
lation of tho corrupt practices act
becauso he held a state office, but
said frankly that had he remained
on tho committee he probably
would have urged the election of
Jefferson Myere for state treas
urer.
In minute detail Cleaver was
(luustioncd about hia knowledge of

detail ho told of the anonymous
tip received about the Lab be home

sure of hie ground before be made

hibitum law, Cleaver named for

tilla county, Cy Bingham of Oram,

cording to his adherents, that the
"people " conference should be
held after a preliminary meeting
by Chinese leaiers held in Peklnr.
This plan, the manifesto says, had
received awirance of support
throughout the country, whereas
the same sources havo not express
ed a like faith In the conference
which was called by the provision
al government nnd attempted an
organization motting on last Sun
day. No meetings have been held
