''Red" Is One Hummer.

Saunter down East State street at
the heat of day when trade is nix and
the shops void of custom. That is the
hour when the skirmish line stands out
clear and distinct with sentiments
waiting and watching for ever smiling
freckled face of a common enemy,
Red" Van Sickle of the Bijou.
All are specialists in the art of novel
and profuse advertising, Maurice
Hankenson, Harry Minas and brother
Ed Larry HOFFMAN and the aforemen-
toned Van Sickle. But the most fear
ed persistent claimant for honors Is he
of the auburn thatch. Every evening
his one COW power motor carries the
announcement of vaudeville and mo-
ton pictures through the town.
Now like all fraternal brothers the
little boosters of East State street are
gossips. Therefore the following can
best be told by OF them in CONVEX
sation with another:
There he goes. I'll betcha / can tell
you what he's going to grin about in

Yesterday noon I saw a big Bijou sign

-Dimick's Charges.

Senator Farrell told me today that
his vote for the Schuebel 10-hour bill
yesterday cost him $4,000, and held
that's why he has moved for recon-
sideration," yelled Senator Dimick,
of Clackamas, with anger in his voice,
when Senator Farrell yesterday
moved for n reconsideration of the bill
which had passed the senate, His
personal interests are involved, and
he states that, as a result of the pas
sage of the bill he will lose the trade
of one of the mills at Oregon City"
Farrell's move for reconsidera-
ton of the bill came after Neuner had
moved for the reconsideration of the
Carkin bill providing for a regulation
OF the commission mercantile bust
ness. The Carkin bill was passed.
Dimick further challenged Farrell
with being actuated by motives for
revenge. After the vote to reconsid-
er had been taken 1t was ruled out of
order by President Malarkey because
the bill was in the custody Of the
house. Farrell then moved that 1t be
withdrawn from the house This mo-
ton failed.
