In fact, a receivership for Ore gon City already has been seriously discussed by cer tain of its creditors, and Judge Campbell of that city has declared his willingness to declare such a receiver ship, ( formal application were made to him, as he for "any bankrupt corporation." A special election has been called by the city for November D "to relieve the financial 'condition of the city," the purpose being to vote .$2r0,000 per cenf bonds and to increase the tnoIcvy eight mills in or der to take aire of the new indebtedness. On the part of Clackamas County tho County Trcnsuror is confronted with an otnpty trea tiry for the first titna in six yonrs.

Banks are refusing to cash Oregon City municipal warrants. Since Janu ary first the city haa issued $39,091,03 In these warrants, according to the re port of City Recorder John W. I-oder, and these warrants are still unpaid. The city tax levy in 1013 in Oregon City waa eight mills. Two weeka af ter ,tho elty went dry the council In creased this levy to 10 mills for 1914, and on November 0 there is to be a, fjprclal eletion held at which the voters will bo asked to sanction an additional levy of eight mills to meet the munici pal indebtedness. Yet "business is flno In dry towns," and Oregon City li doing well.
