Willing to talk about anything uui me Disappearance of Gen eral Caphrys Pryce, Captain Steve O'Donnell, of the iberal forces at Tla Juana, is here to day, conferring with the heads of the local Junta. While ad mitting that he left Tla Juana Tuesday with General Pryce, O'Donnell today expressed Ig norance of Pryce's whereabouts. The impression prevails here that General Pryce and the lib eral juntas are at odds and Captain O'Donnell Is here to patch up the differences. order to witness a rattling good ball game. The Salem team will leave here at 10:59 Sunday morning and, returning, will leave Albany about 6:30 and reach Salem at 7:43 Sunday evening. The low fare of f 1.70 for the round trip, the good resaurants of which Albany boasts and the fine ground there, in addition to the pleasure of an out of town trip will attract many Salem visitors to that city next Sunday. Last Sunday s game at (Pendleton between teams of the Blue Mountain league drew a crowd of 1300.

JUDGE HITS In the Suits Arising From the Raiding of the Bachelors' Club and the Seizing of Its Supplies, the City Loses. ORDINANCES ARE RADICAL The Judge Holds That the Ordinance Prohibiting Common Carriers De livering in City Limits Is in Yto. Iation of the Constitution Other Ordinances Had City Is Enjoined Perpetually From Further Itiild iiig the Club. The city of Woodburn was given a solar plexus blow this morning in its fight against the Bachelor's Club of that city, when Judge Galloway ren dered decision declaring the ordi nances passed by the municipality for the purpose of putting the club out of commission as contrary to the city charter and constitution of the state, and granted a perpetual injunction restraining the officers of the city from making raids on the club under the authority of the ordinances, and placing its officers under arrest for handling liquor for the benefit of club members. Ordinances Radical. There were four ordinances passed by the) city attacked in the complaint filed by the club. The one made it unlawful to sell or give away liquor in any place in Woodburn, save at the drug stores, and upon a doctor's prescription; the other made It un lawful for people to congregate In any place for the purpose of gaming, and declared such a place a disor derly house; the other provided for the Issuance of search warrants for personal property, and the last made it unlawful for any common carrier, or its agents, to bring intoxicating Honors within the limits of the town. The search warrant ordinance was radlcnl in tho extreme. Under Its provision' all that was necessary was for some person to make an affidavit before a court to the effect that he had reason, to believe that there was personal property In some certain place which was subject to seizure by law, and a warrant would be issued, j Armed with the warrant an officer ! could enter and search private as well as public houses. The ordinance was designed especially for seizing and confiscating liquors handled by the club, for the benefit of club members. The jud"ge held this ordinance to be extreme in its provisions, and to be not only in violation of the charter of the city, but contrary to the con stitution of the state. i Against Commerce Act. , The ordinance forbidding the ship ment of liquor Into the town by a common carrier or its delivery by any of its agents was the other ordinance which the judge pronounced extreme. Under its provisions the Wells Fargo Express company would not be al lowed to ship liquor to any person, In tho cltv for nrivate use, and any dray or express man delivering It was made j subjec t to the ordinance, ana mum I be convicted and fined. This ordi Inonno tVi lndze declared, was con trary to both the constitution of the state, and the interstate commerce act. Ofllccrs Now Knjoinnil.

Then he expressed views almost Identipal with those of Theodore Roosevelt, made public In a recent article in the Outlook.

How many of thein have made any attempt whatever to get acquainted with the people of that vast and rich section? The answer will not be far wrong if put In these words: "Exactly as many as were compelled to visit that section throng business or other reasons. This is wrong wrong in great big capital latters. More than that, from a business standpoint it is crlmlnqj carelessness. There is a great big section of practically virgin territory over In Polk county. There Is a magnificent timber belt being opened up and Its crop maturing for hun dreds of years, Is now heavy for the harvest. There Is a great body of exceeding ly rich land, none better anywhere; awaiting clearing and cultivating.
