TUESDAY'S city election was the first in many years
when prohibition was not an issue. As a result,
there was not the strenuous effort made to get out the

Apple growers have been praying for cold weather,

Intion during the session. Senator
Barrett's memorial follews:
"Whereas, the withdrawal of over
1C, 000, P00 acres of Inntl In the state
of Oregon for forest conservation con
stitutes a serious obstacle to tho set
tlement and development of tho state
and deprives the state and several j
counties thereof of vast tracts of tax
able lands, and these resources are
being conserved for tho benefit of tho
people o fthe whole of the United
States. Itl s therefore lncquitablo to
place tho burden of providing these
resources so largely upon tho people
of this state. Therefore, bo it,
"Resolved, That we petition the
honorable congress of. tho United
States to so amend the law under
which tho natlonnl forests aro main
tained as to give to this state 50 per
cent of all moneys derived from tho
lease, use or sale of any of the re
sources contained within these, na
tional forests."
A
CUIiMOUtt feature of the election was that Mayor
Canon, with three candidates against him, received
two more votes than two years ago, with only one candi
date in opposition.

"To Wisconsin belongs tho honor
