Polk's crop of prunes is picked and
dried. With big crop on their trees
growers four weeks ago prayed fol
sunshine weather. Their prayer was
favorably heard Sunshine weather
through the entire season enabled the
prune men to pick their crop without
loss and the sunshine caused the
fruit to sugar well. The crop has
dried heavy.
Most of the producers in Polk have
sold their crops at 612. A few got but

RECALL REPORT IS MADE.
CIRCULAT0RS SAY SENTIMENT
FAvoRs MOVEMENT.
Plan To File Petitions by Saturday
Independence Bridge Failure
Stimulates Interest.

Reports made by three or four cir
culators at meeting of the Taxpay-
ers' league Saturday afternoon indi-
Gated that the recall movement was
gaining influence and that. the Inde-
pendence bridge failure was chiefly
responsible for the renewed interest.
Circulators say they are meeting with
more encouragement now than for
merly. This week it is planned to
have the petitions finished and in the
hands of the county clerk. Circula-
tors will work in Dallas and Indepen-
dence. The desire to have the petit
tions in this week is to enable the re-
call to be voted upon at the general
election next month. The people in
terested in the recall say they do not
desire to put the county to the ex-
pense of special election.
Ed. Loose, who has circulated peti
tions in Spring Valley, Brush Col
lege and West Salem, said he had $50
names on his petitions. He believes
he will be able to secure 80 per cent
of the voters in these districts. A.
Fl. bennett of Crowley reported sentf-
ment in his neighborbood was unani-
nous. Mr.. Krafts of Douglas pre-
cinct is reported to have 'phoned to
F. r. Meyers that every voter in
Douglas had signed the recall petit
ton he circulated. Mr.. Oliver of Air
lie said he was experiencing little
difficulty in obtaining support to the
recall. Two circulators have promis-
ed to work in Mccoy this week; two
in Dallas; and one in Independence.
J. K. Sears said to an Observer re-
porter Saturday that he still retained
his interest in the recall movement
and that misinterpretation of The OBJ
server story of October 3 seemed ap-
parent. At the meeting Saturday Mr..
Sears reversed himself somewhat on
his previous statement, that he would
not circulate the petitions, when he
promised the use of himself and auto
mobile to one circulator.

COUNTY COURT ACTS
GIVES CONTRACTORS NOTICE
TO COMPLETE WORK.
Finish Construction and Repair
Reads Order-Tobin & Stevens
Makes Offer and Hire Attorney

Notice by registered mail to Tobir
& Stevens, contractors on the ill-fam
ed Independence bridge, to resume
work on the bridge within ten days
was issued by the county court Fri
day afternoon. This order followed
meetings of the contractors and coun-
ty court Thursday and Friday in In
dependence and Dallas. Following I'M
mediately at the close of the meetings
the order is significant.
1t is said that the contractors Of
fered the county court use of Their
equipment and their own superinten-
dence in the repair of the bridge
without cost. They showed their
teeth, however, by the presence OF
their attorney, George W. Joseph of
Portland, in Independence Friday.
The written order entered on the
minutes of the county court is as fol-
lows:
In the matter of the completion of
the concrete bridge on Main street in
Independence.
1t is hereby ordered by the court
that the county clerk give notice to
Tobin & Stevens, contractors of said
bridge, to complete the construction
and repair of said bridge at once, ac-
cording to plans and specifications
and that upon their failure to begin
work thereon within 10 days the court
will take full charge of said work,
holding cost of the same as a charge
against said contractors and that such
notice be given by registered mail.
A prominent Dallas lawyer gave
it as his opinion that it would neces-
state a legal battle to obtain dam
ages from the contractors, if legal ac-
ton were started, and then a question
would arise as to collection. al know
one of the contractors: he has moth
ing. The other man / never heard Of
until he took this work" 1t is evi-
dent, too, that Tobin and Stevens
have said, in effect, take what we Of
fer you or fight That's evidently
what the presence of their attorney
in Independence meant.

WILL SEE CANNING INDUSTRY.
Mrs. Braden to Stop at Chehalis on
Way Home.

Mrs. Winnie Braden, who has been
in Seattle since the close of the state
fair, and where she arranged and
has charge Of the prize winning Polk
county exhibit at the Northwest Land
Products show, expects to return to
Dallas about the Doth Of this month.
Following the Seattle show she will
go to Chehalis, where she will in
spect the plant Of the Chehalis Can
merry company. Mrs. Braden's stop
is at the request of the local conn
mercial club, and she will make re-
port of her findings to that body upon
her return to Dallas.
The local commercial club for the
past year has been looking into the
feasibility of establishing cannery
here, and last spring W. V. Fuller
and F. J. Coad were sent to Cheha-
lis to get data about that cannery. 1t
was considered a good plan to ask
Mrs. Braden to stop at the same plant
while she was in the north, and while
the plant was in full operation, so as
to have more complete figures. The
commercial club intends to arouse
more interest in the cannery matter
and every possible effort will be made
to secure one in the near future. 1t
is now planned to make it co-opera-
tive plant, by interesting fruit grow
ers and farmers as well as business
men, and suitable site has been Of
fered for such plant.
The matter of building a cannery
in connection with a cold storage
plant, which local firm has in view,
was also suggested to the club at its
regular meeting last Thursday night.

ASSOCIATION ISFORMED
WEST SIDE HIGHWAY is TOPIC
OF MEETING.
Gathering of Good Roads Men Here
Saturday Pledges for Perman-
ent Road.

With the view that the country
west of the Willamette river shout
be served with a good, permanen
highway the same as is proposed fol
the East Side, fully 300 good roads
men gathered at the Dallas armory
last Saturday night and organized the
West Side Pacific Highway associa-
ton. These men, and few women
were from every center in the counties
of Yamhill, Polk and Benton and they
all came with the avowed intention
of showing that they could be depend
ed upon to do their part in seeing
that the West Side Pacific highway
would be given due consideration by
the state highway commission.
Judge r. C. Holman of the county
court of Multnomah county, who is
one Of the leading good roads men Of
the west, gave the principal address
of the evening, explaining the intent
o. the association, and the benefits
that would be derived from the sue
cessful execution of its work. He ex-
planned that the West Side must have
an arterial road from the Multnomab
county line to Eugene, from county
seat to county seat and through tn ;
centers Of population, with laterals or
feeders to less important points. The
building Of such a road, he explained,
meant much in the development of
this part of the state, and all towns
must get together at the present, lay
aside petty jealousies, and work for
the road as a whole, deciding later
just what towns it would pass
through.
Other addresses were given by
Clarence Butts of Newberg, Oscar
Hayter Of Dallas, J. d. Butler of
Monmouth, Judge Malone of Corval
lis, President Alderman of the Mon
mouth State Normal, Monmouth, who
called attention to the State Wide
Tax and Indebtedness limitation
Amendment, which if passed at the
November election will absolutely kill
any chances of getting the road in
the near future, Profs. Shelton and
of O. A. c., I. L. Patter-
son of Eola and Mayor kirkpatrick
of Dallas.
C. c. Chapman, publisher of the
Oregon Voter, and a well-advised
road man, was to have been present
but sickness detained him. In Satur-
days issue of the "Voter" Mr.. Chap
man expressed his deep regret at his
inability to attend number Of meet
ings in which he has been absorbingly
among which was the West
Side Road meeting at Dallas.
Following the adoption of articles
If agreement r. J. Moore Of Newberg

tion and VIM. 7. Vinton of McMinn-
vile was elected secretary. The ar
sicles provide that the name of the as
