this was done voluntarily after the
paper mill people and the allied in
terests had defeated the bill as a
vicious and unconstitutional measure
that would have raised HI with the

Mr.. Ahlers, the head of the new
State Bank & Trust company at
tended a sale about the first day he
wasin Western Oregon, and was sur
prised that out of personal property
of about $1,000 only one sale note
was taken. 1t is customary back
East for auctioneers to cry one-half
or two-thirds Of their sales on time
notes, but here in Oregon the people
who attend sales seems to have more
ready money than elsewhere. He
went to the sale to buy up the sale
notes, but was disappointed that so
little credit was requesed.
Robert A. Alberti of Seattle, is
the manager of the Italian Vineyard
company that has thousands of acres
planted out to vines at Quequa-
monga, point on the Los Angeles &
Salt Lake railroad, not far from San
Bernardino, California. This COM
pany is the only one big enough to
hold its own with the great wine
trust and come out ahead most of
the time. Mr.. Alberti says the de-
feat of Gill as mayor of Seattle has
hurt business in that city. Several
failures are recorded daily in Seat
tie, nothing like has ever hurt that
city. Seattle has nine times the
nine lives of cat and then some.
The Italians and Knights of Co.
lumbus have stolen a march on 9TH
er people by having October IA made
legal holiday in honor of Christie
fero Colombo in most of the states
of the Union. This day has been
made state holiday in Oregon,
Washington and California during
the past winters sessions of the
legislature. In Oregon the day was
honored by the legislature largely
through the efforts of John w. Kel-
ly, of the Portland Telegram, and
John Cordano, the italian secret SER
vice man. The official Italian news
paper of the coast. LA Voce Del
Populo," published in San Francisco
has given these gentlemen great
credit for carrying on the campaign
for official recognition of the dis
coverer of the American continent
and that day will be celebrated at
Portland with great demonstration
in his honor next October.
