Director R. H. Greer visited

pleased with their visit Their
principal reason for going was to
look at the manual training class

Reo, 20-horse-power automobile,
and finds it a great aid to him in
his business, as long distance
trips can be made quicker than
by the old horse-power method,
The doctor declares the new ma
chine was not purchased for
pleasure, but as a purely bust
ness proposition, and says he can
now cover 100 miles quicker than
he could get over 25 before his
investment, and in cases where
speed is required the automobile
will be found valuable.

It has been decided by the city
council not to demolish entirely
the old water tower, but to use it
temporarily until a new steel
tower can be built beside it,
which will cost in the neighbor
hood of $1,700 and will be KG feet
high. The timbers in the old
tower were found to be badly de
cayed and unfit for the purpose
they have been used for, and it
was found absolutely necessary
to rebuild. Supt. Hall went to
Portland Monday and posted him
self on the cost of a new steel
tower, and upon his showing it
was decided to rebuild and to
keep the old tower, temporarily

While Charles Sholty, who is
living on the Dennis' ranch just
east of town, was driving home
from Hillsboro last Saturday
night, his team became fright
ed and unmanageable. He was
thrown from the wagon and a
wheel struck him back of the
ear, laying bare the bone for at
least three inches, and rendered
him unconscious for some time.
He was picked up and taken
home and Dr. A. B. Bailey sent
for, who sewed up the wound
and reports the injured man as
getting along as well as could be
expected, and thinks he will come
out all right, though he got a
severe jolt and a pretty close
call.

Here is a part of a conversa
tion overheard on the street the
other day between one ot our
ocal ministers and a Hillsboro
business man: "I will tell you
frankly that up to within a year
I have been opposed to this pro
hibition movement that is sweep
ing the country and have invari
ablv voted against it. I take s
drink when I want it, and I can't
figure out that it has ever done
me any good: but I can plainly
see where it is doing great harm
to our boys, and for that reason
shall vote dry." isut to tell
you the truth I am doubtful about
winning out. because you minis
ters and church people don't vote
as you preacn. vvnac are you
going to do this time? And
they separated, the minister's
face wearing a very thoughtful
expression.
As will be seen in another col
umn, J. A. unapman, wno was
nominated as a candidate for rep
resentative on the Independent
Statement No. 1 ticket, has re
fused to allow his name to go on
the ticket. He says he is a re
publican, stands for republican
principles and a champion of the
primary law. In closing his let
ter declining the nomination, Air.
Chapman says: "I wish to state
further that I am a republican
and a champion of the direct pri
mary law, and as such have tak
en part in our receni primaries
and supported most of the suc
cessful candidates. For me to
et my name be placed on a ticket
in onnosition to ones 1 helped to
nominate should receive just con
demnation from every true re-
Eublican and every fair-minded
emocrat as well."
Joseph Campbell, of Gales

Justice Bagley's court last Friflay

secured a divorce at the last term
of court, .was awarded one third

alimony and a sewing machine.
It was when the deputy snerm
went for the machine that Camp
bell drew his revolver. The con
troversy between Campbell ana

believed there was no danger in
termitting Campbell to go pend
ing good behavior.

A petition will be circulated at
once asking for a change of route
through Hillsboro of the Oregon
Electric Company, which it is be
lieved will be much more satis
factory to many than the one a!
ready projiosed. The petition
reads as ionows:
It is the sentiment of the un
dersigned property owners that
the granting of a franchise on
Washington street is detriments
to the business interests now e
tablished on Main street, but in
as-much as the Oregon Electric
Company preferred said street
we are quite willing to concede
to their wishes. Provided, how
ever, that said company construct
a loop track as follows: rrom
the corner or Washington and
First streets, thence north
Main street thence east on Main
street to Third street, thence
south 'on Tifcd to Washington
street. This loop will prove
equitable to ' the business and
property interests as they now
exist and will create no los3 or
hardship on any one. Hence we
sincerely hope that this change
ot routing will be made.
