John Anderson, the well known
manager of the Scandinavian-Ameri-
can company, one of the largest em-
ployment bureaus in Portland, says
that the work of stealing men has
been going on ever since the north
bank road construction was institut-
ed. Mr.. Anderson says the employ
ment agencies face a hard problem
in trying to sign good, honest labor
ers for the o. r. & N. railroad camps.
Mr.. Anderson states that the rail-
road company now recognizes only
legitimate employment agencies that
insist on men having clean blankets
when they leave Portland. He fur
ther says that men do not have to be.
listed at an employment bureau in
order to secure positions, and that
when men are "broke'' they are
shipped out without the usual fee.
He states that it is the disposition of
the employment bureaus to discour-
age the worgmen from getting their
goods from second hand dealers.

IN STATU QUO.

The City Council has taken no
further action in regard to Ordi-
nance No. s than to instruct the
License Collector to for a time re-
frain from collecting licenses under
the Ordinance. The request of
the Chamber of Commerce was to
the effect that the obnoxious ordi-
nance be repealed IN toto. The
holding of the measure up for the
present is little better than entorc-
ing it as the thing hangs as a
menace over the heads of all who
are doing business III the city or
who contemplate coming here to
do business. AS the situation
stands the ordinance can be
dropped into effect at any moment
that the Council sees fit The
first thing that a person asks when
coming into the city with view
of locating is, what is the tax rate
in the county and city?" Under
the present existing conditions
YOU will have to tell him that it is
fully S2.65 on the SIoo valuation,
and that it may be 20 cents more
on the $Ioo if the County Com
missioners see fit to add that
amount for the emergency fund.
This would make the rate Sass,
and then there is that license or
dinance. which no one can tell
what is to become Of The Cham
Der of Commerce certainly made
itself clear when it asked for the
repeal OF this ordinance and the
committee did the same when it
met with the Council to present
the resolution adopted by the
Chamber. 1t has been intimated
that the Council intends to modify
the ordinance in many respects
and practically make new ordi-
nance out of it, but that is not
what the Chamber of Commerce
asked for. II asked for the repeal
of the ordinance entirely because
it was measure detrimental to
the interests of the city. Every
day the people are telling each
other on the outside that Yering-
ton is now a high license town
and to wait awhile before invest
ing their money in the place.
That is what is doing the damage,
the waiting. We want people to
come in here now and help us
build up the town; after while it
will not make SO much difference
about the levying of a reasonable
license tax. If there are few
things in ordinance No. 8 that are
wanted they can much better be
obtained by repeating the obnox-
ious measure and enacting a new
and short one than by amending
the lengthy ordinance No. 8.
Pretty soon the people will begin
TO think they made mistake in
not demanding the repeal of the
ordinance instead of requesting it.
Don't let things get to the pass
where the people will begin to
think that the Council is their
enemy. The will of the people is
something that must be respected.

means that the men who have
been ranching extensively in this
locality are preparing to follow in
the path of the cattle kings. Range
land is rapidly becoming limited
in quantity and of inferior quality,
Hence the sheepmen are either re-
