REV. DONAT ACCEPTS
OAKLAND PASTORATE

Rev. Anthony s. Donat, who came
here year before last from Cadillac,
Mich, to take charge of the Riverside
Congregational church. has accepted o
call from the First Congregational
church, of Oakland. Calf. Mr.. Donat
will leave here about May to take up
his new work.
Mr.. Donat was formerly engaged in
institutional church work In the down
town district of Chicago, and because
of his experience in such work he was
chosen as pastor OF the Oakland insti-
tuition. the building of which is located
on one of the principal business streets,
next to the Orpheum theatre. of the
California city.
''It ia our plan. says Mr.. Donat, to
sell the site of the present building,
which is valued at approximately
$500. 900. We will secure site for q
smaller amount of money about block
away and erect modern institutional
structure. equipped with club facilities
and reading room. The new church
will be open day and night. The old
building was thrown open to refugees
following the 1905 San Francisco EARTH
quake, and thousands of the homeless
from the Golden Gate city were given
sleeping quarters on the cushioned
pews. The church has members in all
Of the Oakland suburbs. including Ala
media, Berkeley and Piedmont.
Mr.. Donat states that DR.. Francis j..
Van Horn, who has had charge of the
church, will leave this summer for an
extended trip in the east.

CASCADE SPECIAL TAX
LEVY Is RESISTED

The O.-W. r. & N. Co. on last
Friday filed a suit with the circuit
court to restrain the county from the
collection of special tax levy voted
by the citizens of road district No. / al
Cascade Locks last fall. The case has
been set for hearing before Judge
Bradshaw at The Dalles next Friday
A similar case was filed Monday by the
Wind River Lumber Co.. of Cascade
Locks.
The railway company, the tax o1
which by the special assessment will
be increased by the sum of IS, ZIG. "a
alleges that while the election was car,
ried by but a single vote, Mr.. and Mrs
A. o. Adams and DR.. and Mrs. D. Dit.
tebrant were not legal freeholders anC
were not entitled to the ballot at the
special election. 1t is further alleged
that the sum voted comes under a state
budget law, and that estimates on ths
proposed work should have been pub
lished and given interested parties fol
consideration.
The railway company rendered Sher.
iff johnson q check for $l3, 1862, as hall
of the years tax less the special levy.
The sheriff refused to accept the check
and it was paid to County Clerk Shoe.
maker, as clerk of the circuit court, in
order that the company might be re.
lieved of the one per cent per month
interest charged on delinquencies.
The Wind River Lumber Co. Monday
through their attorney, George Shep.
herd, of Portland. and their manager,
j. II. Dunlop, filed their suit.
The Lumber company alleges in its
complaint that at the special election
the chairman of the meeting used the
argument that the tax woud be on the
plaintiff and the O.-W. R. & N. Co.
1t cites that the chairman stated that
he was talking with fisherman who
told him that even though the tax car.
ried he would have to only catch one
extra fish to pay his portion.
The complaint shows that by the 1914
assessment the sixteen citizens who
voted for the special tax owned proper.
ty the total assessed value of which
was 5000. The assessed value of the
railway company and the lumber COM
pany were given respectively at $613,
600 and $63, ZOO. The total assessed
valuation Of the road district was
$791, 900.

Presidents Message
Answers the Charges Made
In the Late Campaign

The presidents message answers very
directly and very aptly the charge that
was made, during the campaign, that he
was actuated by selfish political motives
when he urged and secured the passage
of an eight hour law for railway train
men who were threatening to strike.
The election has been held and the
president has been reelected, so he can
no longer be regarded or pointed to by
political enemies as a vote-seeker.
Yet. in this message, he repeats the
program of settlement that he placed be-
fore congress in the closing hours of the
last session. He urges the adoption of It's
recommendation upon which no action
was taken, but again includes those
sections upon which action was taken
and which resulted in the criticism that il
was done to win Wilson votes.
Whether or not by design, the presi-
dent establishes that he was prompted in
his original stand by no other considera-
tion than the greatest good to the great
est number and in spirit of small I'd"
democracy for which his conduct Of the
first Office in the land has been noted.
The president establishes that he acted
from conviction. solely, and upon those
newspapers which assumed the role of
bullies in their campaign attacks, he
serves notice that he has not been
bluffed from (which is more proof of
conviction.
The president has waited, indeed, until
a time when defense of his acts cannot
be ascribed to political ambition, to
couple the two recommendations which
received the favorable action Of congress
and show to the country that what was
sought by him at the time was simply
justice TO both sides of a controversy
which threatened the country with indus
trial paralysis and exposed its people to
famine, want, untold suffering and, in
thousands upon thousands Of cases,
death.
Placed side by side as they were pre- (
sented to congress, these recomnenda- (
tions that were acted upon favorably
show that the president was Just as de-
termined to secure a square deal for capi- !
tai as he was for labor.

That the helplessness Of the country in
the face of the threatened strike Of rail
way employees impressed itself lastingly
upon the president is manifest in his re-
peated recommendation TO congress that
workers engaged in an industry AS i'm
portant to the country's well-being and
very hfe as is that of the railroad indus
try, should submit their grievances to a
public hearing before leaving their posts
on strike
This recommendation will not appeal
to some foolish railroads, because it is
not the compulsory arbitration that some
foolish railroads have insisted upon, but
1t WILL appeal, we believe, to the work
ingman's sense Of justice and he viii ac.
cept it. as he should, in the fair spirit ir
which it is suggested
