through this morniii on his way to
Vaiuina, takinK 20 men over to
CopenhaKcn lirothers, who arc jfrad
iiiK for the road from Newport to Ya
ipiiua. When asked regarding tnc
new road he said:
There has been much talk about
who is doing the grading and what
the results will be. 1 1 is known that
i'orler liros. have the contract for
grading and that they have sub-let it
to Copenhagen lirothers.
"The fact that Copenhagen lirotn
ers have been doing most of the Ore
gon Klcelric grading has led to th.'
conclusion that the Hill interests had
bought the C. & E.
"However, the officials refuse to
make any statements and it il now
believed that the Southern J'acihc
has made arrangements with the C.
x. I-' io i-vteiid the line to Newport.''
He says that il is extremely hard
to tind men, Portland is asking for
all kinds of laborers and Ihe railroad
construction is constantly deniandin

GIRL MADE PENITENT
BY SERIN SHE STOLE
Professor Beckwith, state bacteriol
ogist, who has been making tests of
the filter plant for the Oregon Pow-
Jr company, in his report states: "The
average Dacierial emciency 01 ine
plant is VJ.li per cent."
Again tests were made for the col
on bacillus which was demonstrated
in the raw water to be present in
qnanteitis of 1-1U cc. or over. No. Ii.
coli was found in miantitics of the
tillered water from any one of the
filters in 1 ec. or less. Upon cliemi-
I examination on trace ot aluminum
ilts unprceipitatcd was found in the
filtered water. There was no turbid
ity discernible in the filtered efflu
cut.
It will be seen that this last test
is very satisfactory and showed
that the neople of Albanv were re
ceiving a most satisfactory quality of
ater.
All methods used were those laid
own by the rules of the American
iihlic Health Association tor sam-
irv water examinations (metnous ot
1912).
These tests show that the water of
the Santiam may be filtered by the
mechanical process in perfect safety
lthough previous examinations ot
heniiclanture, the reports of which
ire on litu at the Aloany otnee ot
the Oregon Power company, give a
very low alkalinity at certain sea
sons of the year. This point should
he watched most carefully in order
that no aluminum salts be found ever
in the effluent during flood months
of the year when the alkalinity may
be expected to drop.
bhould there be any points m ttiese
tests which you care to have ex
plained, 1 should be most pleased to
endeavor to make them clear.

IS. BALTON, AN EXPERT
MILLINER, ACCEPTS POSITION
Mrs. Rultnn, an expert in the art
ot millinery trmiinnitf, is in Albany
to take un her work in the muhncrv
epartment ot the Chambers & Ale-
Cune store.
Mrs. liolton comes to Albanv high
ly recommended as a trimmer, hav
ing held responsible positions in sonic
f the largest stores on the l'acihc
coast.
Miss llibbs. bv far the most capa
ble trimmer and designer ever in Al
bany, will again manage this popular
department or Chambers- Cm Ale
Cune's store. Mr. McCunc reports
last season as the best they have
ever had in the millinery department,
the sales almost doubling that of any
other season.
Next week other experienced mil
liners will arrive from Portland to
help take care of the increased business.
Chnmhers & McCune have not only
doubled their work force but have in
creased the millinery stock and will
continue as exclusive agents for
Gage Hats and Cage millinery.
As Ray Palmer, commissary, and
II. D. Mathies, baker, with gang Xo.
at the Burkhart gravel pit were
coming to town on a speeder last
evening they were overtaken by the
Albany Limited at the curve about a
mile and a halt trom the city and
Palmer was run over and killed.
Mathcis escaped just in time.
1 hey took the speeder and left for
town almost at the time the limited
was due here and entirely contrary to I
the orders regarding the use of speeders.
They had just turned the curve
and were unable to hear or see the
limited, neither could the motorman
on the limited sec them till he was
within some fifty yards when every
thing possible was done to stop but
it was too late.
When the men on the speeder real
ized that the limited was on them,
Matheis coolly got up and jumped,
but Palmer sat paralyzed with fright
and was crushed under the train,
nearly every bone in his body being
broken.
He is very highly spoken of and
many friends in Portland where he
has made his home at the Y. M. C.
A. for some time before going to
work for the Oregon Electric. He
leaves a brother who resides in Port
land, being in the employ of Lip
man Wolfe & Co., and a father whose
residence has not yet been ascertained.

Philadelphia, Aug. 27. The Rev.
Dr. Hugh C. Mcilride of the Disston
Memorial Presbyterian church of Ta
cony was robbed of a siut case two
weeks ago in a local department store
while he was on his way to Atlantic
City. He made no report of the loss
until today, when he appeared at the
detective bureau with a leter signed
"A Heart Broken Young Woman"
which reads:
"I read your beautiful sermon and
was overcome with remorse. People
have often told me that I had a good
Christian mother, but that my father
was a worthless man.
"I never had a chance to learn the
difference between right and wrong,
but when I read your sermon on the
text: 'O Lord, please show me the
right from wrong' I decided I did
wrong in taking your suit case.
"Your Atlantic City address was in
the suit case, but when I took the bag
to the express office they would not
send it unless I prepaid the charges
of $1. I did not have the money, so
I took two of your razors and pawn
ed them for 50 cents and with the
money paid the storage on the suit
case at Ragen's Storage House, 1902
South College avenue.
I am searching for work and when
I get enough money I will get your
case and send it to you. If you for
give me, please insert an advertise
ment in tlie newspapers.'
Detective O'Brien recovered the
siut case. Dr. McBride said his ser
mon had not made any profound im
pression on the congregation. He
would like to know the identity of the
young woman so that he could get
her a position.

SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 27. The
government investigation of the so-1
called retail lumber trust of the mid
dle west began here this morning. H.
ii. Hewitt, of the Tyre Lumber com
pany of Hoquiam was the first witness
called. He admitted that he hesitated
to sell the retail lumbermen not in
hided in the alleged syndicate for
fear of being blacklisted by the trust.
e told oi correspondence that en
sued between him and the publishers
of the Mississippi Lumberman, a lum
ber journal in support of the trust,
in which it was hinted that he must re-
Irain trom selling in the Mississippi
valley and neighboring territory to
any retailers except those in the syndicate.
Starting with the protection of in
fant industries the tariff has gradual
ly increased until it has become a rob
ber of the people in the interest of the
great monopolies.
Power has gradually been . taken
away from the people. Now they are
demanding it back, ana nil over the
country the masses are rising and ask
ing for their rights.
Roosevelt had a try for the people:
he simple had his brass band play
and the trusts thrived and grew.
Mr. Taft, whom Roosevelt named
as his own successor, has proven just
the kind of a man the trusts wanted,
and in his administration has openly
been the .enemy of every movement
giving the power back into the hands
of the people.
