EARNING
SALARY

The First National Bank Of Port
land today paid to Attorney-General
Crawford $71S95O, being the amount
due the state in the way of dormant
deposits in the institution,
The law provides that where a de-
posit has lain dormant for seven years
that 1t shall escheat to the state. The
bank contested the law in a suit which
was recently decided in favor Of the
state by the supreme court, and, com
plying with this decision, the money
was paid to the attorney-g general to-
day.
Several other banks have also de-
clined to pay over dormant deposits,
pending a decision in the case, and
these will also be forthcoming in the
near future.

MUNICIPAL
LEAGUE HAS
PITIFUL CASE

Who will help two little unfortu-
nate babies?
No one to care for them but their
mother and she confined in the tuber-
cular sanitarium,
A baby girl four months old and
little boy Of three years
The case is one of the first dis
closures Of the Municipal League re-
search work recently ihaugurated in
Salem.
The Leagues work is primarily one
OF investigation only in order to de-
termine the extent Of the need and
the degree Of sentiment favorable to
something comprehensive in the way
of united relief and social endeavor
but this appeal is one that cannot be
overlooked
The mother does not want her ba-
bies adopted. believing she will soon
be able to care for them herself, AT
present they are in the care Of another
woman at a charge of $25 per month
and while the rate is in no sense un-
reasonable, the mother is unable at
present to pay, and would deeply APP
preciate financial assistance for
short time.
Every cent donated for the support
of these babies until the mother is
able to care for them will go directly
to them Not penny shall be appli-
ed to expenses of any institution or
fees of any agent or agency. Bring
or send your gifts to the Journal, or
to r. A. Harris, chairman of the re-
search committee, P. o. box 241, Salem.

Contractors Await Landing Of Ma.
chlnery from Boats at MarshReId.

Marshfeld, (Special.)-The an
nouncements recently made by the
contracting companies that the South

along the Eugene-Coos. Bay line, has
given this locality more enthusiasm
than It ever enjoyed before
It has been given out by the repre-
sentatlyes of Macarthur Brothers G.

that work would start as quickly as
the machinery could be landed here
on boats. There are to be three con-
struction camps between Coos Bay
and Gardiner.
The matter of a franchise in Marsh
field has not yet been settled. The
Terminal company holds the water
front franchise, which it has offered
to give up on condition that the
Southern Pacific accept common
user clause, However, the franchise
matter, it is expected, will now be
arranged in some way and has been
somewhat lost sight of since the an
nouncement of immediate work The
contractors state that the city fran
chises Is detail of which they know
nothing and the starting of the build
ing of the line does not hinge on this
point.
