ANTi.TRADiNG STAMP
ACT Is FOUND INVALID
Tax Of Per Cent. Unconstitutional,
Says Federal Court in
Oregon Case.

PORTLAND. Ore.-The Oregon anti.
trading stamp law was declared un.
constitutional and tho legality Of
trading stamps was upheld In a de.
oision in the federal court rendered
here by Judge Charles E. Wolberton
and concurred in by Judges w. B.
Gilbert and R. S. Bean.
The court held that the law, which
levied a tax of per cent on the gross
sales Of stores using trading stamps
was in contravention of the equality
clause of the federal constitution and
therefore void. The decision cited
the case of Little VS.. Tanner, in the
Eastern district of Washington, in
which the issue and the decision were
the same.
This decision restores trading stamps
to the status that existed before the
enactment of the law, which was found
invalid, and which was enacted by the
last Oregon legislature.
The case was brought by Portland
firms using trading stamps, suit to
compel completion of contract being
filed against a trading stamp com.
pany.

RECEPTION FOR THE
METHODIST MINISTER

Last Tuesday night reception was
rendered to the Rev. w. T. Randolph
and wife at the Methodist Episcopal
church. The occasion was a great sue.
cess and very large concourse of peo
pie turned out to welcome the new
pastor and wife. Nearly all the pas
tors of the different churches were
there to give friendly greeting. The
ladies of the church served nice re-
freshments and in many ways helped
to make the evening a success. One
very noticeable and encouraging fea.
ture of the event was the very large
number of big boys and girls, and
young men and young women who
were present. There was some speech
making, recitation and good time gen
orally. !:

WATER TOWER UP IN A
BIG TREE At GOLD RUN

The J. B. Hayford home is now
supplied with water from a tank To-
Gated in a pine tree. H. p. Brown,
citizen of Aberdeen, Washington,
who has been spending the summer
at the Hayford place constructed a
water wheel and placed it in the
P. G. & E. canal. Mr.. Hayford con-
structed a galvanized iron tank and
anchored it in a tree. Then he con-
nected the tank with a spring on his
place with an inch pipe. The power
generated by the water wheel was
applied, which keeps the pine tree

is used for washing buegies, for the
bath tub and other domsstic Dur-

A REASON FOR FELIcITATION.

Geo. ]. Wolff of the popular depart.
ment store is conducting a sale for
a few days concentrating the 18th
year of their business in this city. This
is surely fine record of which they
may be proud, eighteen years of fair
and square dealing, of high business
ideals, of good faith with the public
is an asset which can scarcely be es-

Another serious blunder made by the

Cody May Be Declared Elig-

NASHVILLE. Tenn, December The
Vanderbilt Commodores, claimants OF

played but three years college ball, en-
titling him to another year at Wander

NEW YORK. Dec. THE Federal
League owners will hold a meeting in
this city on Friday. and gossip had 1t
that some sort of an agreement would
be reached with the National League
solons. who will convene at the Wal
dorf- Astoria on December "A. The story
that the Federal League men would be
permitted to purchase the franchises OF
several National League clubs was re-
vived. but this was denied on all sides.
The Feds said today they didn't want
to- buy any franchises: the National
League people said that no franchises
were for sale. That seems to make 1t
unanimous. but the rumor spread de-
spite all disavowals.
1t Is probable that when the outlaw
magnates 60 into session the fate OF
the Newark club will be decided. 1t is
almost certain that Harry Sinclair who
now controls the Jersey club. will pur-
chase a big interest In the New York
team. and will therefore have to dis
pose of his holdings in Newark. pat

to Sinclair but nothing definite could
be learned on the matter at the office
