FINANCE COMMITTEE
IS GATHERING COIN
Spirited Campaign Is in Progress to
Get Funds for Big Cherry Fair
Celebration.

The finance committee of the Cherry
Fair has started out on a campaign to
raise funds with which to furnish the
necessaries for the big three day cele-
bration, and it behooves every "feller"
in the city to go down in hip pocket
and bring out that packet which gener-
ally contains a yellow boy or two. If
he can't muster up a shin.plaster he
can at least donate a few big, iron
dollars or pledge himself for few
bones to help make the Cherry Fad and
the Fourth of July celebration the
greatest ever.
The burden will not be placed on the
shoulders of few as the finance com.
lmittee will visit every mother.in.son of
Salem's population old enough to
g kick in" with some financial goods.
Don't make any difference what you
give, give something, It is not neces-
sary that legal tender be presented
when the committee calls; a check,
draft, a mortgage-any old thing that
means money, will do. Every man, wo.
man and child in the city wants to see
old Salem bloom with the proper color.
ing on July 8, 4, and 5, and in order
to accomplish these results, some money
is needed. It's not to be a onesided
affair where few get the advantage
and the other are overlooked. The fair
and celebration is being arranged for
the purpose of giving all the people
jolly good time, While things will be
turned considerably wrong.side-out dur.

JUDGE GALLOWAY
ENFORCES HIS ORDER
In Sentencing Mayor Vinton for Con.
tempt of Court Points Out the
Reason Therefor.

Judge Galloway, at McMinnville
Monday, in the matter of the contempt
Of court case of Mayor vinton, of that
city, sentenced the mayor to pay fine
Of 5000, and that he be confined in the
county Jail six months, or until he
obeys tho order of the court. In pass
ing sentence Judge Galloway said
"This, perhaps my last official act in
this county, is certainly most painful
to perform, especially as the defendant
has ever been very dear friend and
esteemed official of this court since my
incumbency.
"However, the issues have been inn
posed upon the court, without reason
or justification, hence I must do my du.
ty without fear, favor or personal con.
sideration.
"To waver or refuse at this time
would be an admission that the court
was without power to enforce It's own
orders, and that one.man power was su,
preme in McMinnville, as well as other
cities acting under similar charters.
"That is that the mayor and city re.
cOrder or either alone has the power to
hold up any public improvement or
legislative enactment authorized by the
city council, simply by declining to at
tach their names as authorized by law,
and when commanded and instructed to
do so, under mandamus proceedings,
they may claim immunity under notice
Of appeal to the supreme court, which
course, if allowed, would practically
stop the wheels of city government for
an indefinite period.
tThe plaintiffs in the first or in.
junction suit filed virtually admit that
they had no cause Of action in law or
equity, by voluntarily taking non.suit,
but not until testimony taken in said
suit established the fact that the city
council Of the city Of McMinnville acted
strictly within the law as set out in the
city charter and ordinances thereto, in
awarding tho paving contract TO the
Montaguc.0 Reilly Company, which was
but $24O different in the amount to the
next competing bid, which has caused
all this trouble and expensive litigation.
$2iO Is certainly a small compensation
for a public improvements costing near
$l5O,OOO.
"The city council acted under the
advice Of eminent counsel, and, as the
record and evidence show, studiously
and conscientiously considered the best
interests Of the city, as well as the
large majority Of the property owners
and taxpayers interested.
"The Judgment Of the court is a fine
Of $500 and six months confinement in
the county Jail, without bail, or until
such time as the defendant, William r.
vinton, sees fit to obey the order Of this
court, and IL Is 30 ordered"
