GOAT MEN WILL MEET
Breeders Plan to Organize Angora
Association For Pacific Northwest.

A movement is on foot to organize
the Angora goat raisers of the North
west into an association similar to the
organizations maintained by other
livestock breeders.
The thousands of good, fertile acres
in Western oregon, lying idle for the
want of clearing, are becoming more
and more appreciated as the price OF
improved land goes up. The value of
the goat in the clearing up process
and yielding a handsome profit from
his back at the same time is only just
beginning to be understood.
The advance in the price of mohair;
the new uses of mohair in the textile
world the establishment in Portland
of the largest mohair mill in the West
all of thees things are being noted
by the Angora breeders and are sery-
ing as an incentive to organize an
association, so that some concerted
action may be taken on matters af-
fecting the goat industry. This busi-
ness is the purpose of this movement.
Saturday, January s, 1910, at Dali
las, oregon, a meeting will be held
to discuss plans for the proposed or
ganization. 1t is expected that most
of the leading goat men of Oregon
will attend. At this time, the advisa-
bility of resuming the annual goat
shows in Dallas will come up for con-
sideration. The meeting will be held
at l o'clock in the afternoon, and 1t is
hoped that every goat breeder in the
Willamette Valley will either be pres
ent or will send letter approving
the organization of an association.

AS soon as the preliminaries for
the state organization can be fully ar

ganize a Camp of Oregon pioneers

vicinity who are eligible to member
ship will give the movement their
hearty endorsement. A paper will be
circulated for signatures in few
days.
Mr.. Holman informs the Observer
that some OF the leading men OF the
state have already signed for mem
bership. and he anticipates no diff
fculty in getting the movement under
way in every county in the state with
in the next few weeks.

firm. The picture, Rocks of Corn

painting from the brush of A. j..

to be appreciated. Another desirable
feature of this calendar is found in
the figures, which are of unusual size,
for long distance. The calendar is

DEMAND LICENSE BACK
NEAR-BEER RESORTS CLOSE
DOORS AND ASK RETURN OF
MONEY.
Councilman Ayres Prepares Financial
Statement Showing Estimated
Expenditures for Year 1910.

If the city finds it necessary to COM
ply with the demand of the near-beer
establishments for a return of some
! ting like $1,000 license money, that
$500 deficiency resulting from the
recent 10-mill tax levy will look a
whole lott ike $500 deeper 'fn the
hole" at the end of the present fiscal
year. The near-beer resorts have all
closed their doors, and now, in view
of Judge Wolverton's decision, are
demanding their license back. The
formal demand was made in writing
at last nights council meeting, and it
is rumored that if payment is re-
fused, they will at once begin an ac-
tion to recover the amount.
Business was transacted last night
as follows:
Purchase of $50 feet of fire hose
from the Pacific Rubber Company at
80 cents foot was ordered.
New crosswalk ordered at the Man
ston property on South Main Street.
Report of City Engineer on Wash
ington street improvement accepted.
City Attorney authorized to pre-
pare resolution covering numbering
of houses.
Warrants for payment of interest
charges ordered drawn as follows:
water bonds, $240; City Hall bonds,
$25; rock crusher warrants, $194.
City Attorney ordered to prepare
resolution providing for macadam-
izing Washington street from Main
street east to county road, and Main
street south to Wilson hill.
Cement walks ordered adjoining
Cherrington, Smith and Crider lots on
Main street
Ordinance passed providing for g.
year lighting contract with North

Financial Statement.
Councilman Ayres has prepared for
the information of the council and
for publication in the city papers the
following showing of expenditures for
the year >of 1909 and the estimated
expenditures for the year 1910. This
report does not cover the street i'm
provements for the last year, as that
cost was all paid by the property
owners. Councilman Ayres' figures are
very complete and will prove of in
terest to every taxpayer in the city.
