MIR. LISTER WRITES
OF NORTH BEND
North Bend, Ore, Sep. %, 1917.

North Bend, Ore, Sep. 23, 1917.
The Glacier: Mrs. Lister and ar
rived here on the evening of the 18th.
We are having our annual outing.
North Bend is almost unknown in the
state. We were surprised to find a
city of $500 people, according to Com
mercial club statistics. Every house
is occupied and much doubling up of
families in homes. The pay roll here
is said to be the largest in of any Ore
gon city outside of Portland. There
are three large sawmills and box fac
tory. The mills and factory employ
about 400 men and the ship yards an
other 400 :nen. There is government
contract placed here for building six
ships. These ships are to be 28l feet
in length. They will be double deck.
ers with.great carrying capacity. They
are designed after the scow form. fat
bottomed perpendicular sides. They
will be light draft because of the
width and fiat bottom. They have
nothing of the trim graceful lines of
the ocean liners.
There is private ship building also.
One was launched just before we came,
the Fred Baxter, owned by a Califor-
MIA firm, and one, the c. A. Smith, is
to be launched October 2. 1t is built
by c. A. Smith, the great mill man of
Marshfield. The Adeline Smith, owned
by c. A. Smith, sold to San Francis
co firm for 81 ZOO, 600 recently, and said
to have cost under $500, 900.
Coos Bay is V shaped, with the angle
to the north. 1t has depth of 35 feet
now at the bar. There is a government
dredge working there all the time.
The minimum wage is about So. and
the maximum about Sc. Men work
eight hours. There is no evidence of a
strike brewing. There is no union
among the men. Living cost is about
as at Hood River except wood 81. 25 a
load. Faithfully,
j. B. Lister.

MUNICIPAL FUEL YARD
A PROBABILITY

The impending fuel shortage aggra-
waited by the lack of oil for numerous
oil burning heating plants of the city,
among them the high school, the city
council has instructed the finance COM
mittee of the body to investigate .the
wood and coal market with view to
establishing municipal yard.
Coal and cordwood are unobtainable
in Hood River at the present time, and
all fuel dealers are far behind in their
deliveries of slabwood. In case the
city enters the business. street i'm
provement equipment will be pressed
into service, it is said.

to a ballot not prepared in the man /
ner prescribed is that it shall not be
received or counted.
Now, what is to be done in a case
of this character? Can it be said that
the whole electorate must be disfran-
chised because those persons whom
the people by their statute have des-
ignated to prepare a ballot and told
them how to prepare or provide it,
and they prepare and furnish to the
elector the form of an official ballot
that he is either required to cast or
not vote at all, and prepare one not \
strict conformity to the law, that the
result OF such election must be de
clared void; or must the law as we
find it written, be enforced.
1t is not so much the purpose or
motive or intent of those preparing
such ballot-whether it be good o.
bad, or whether they were actuated
ty fractional feeling or partisanship,
ignorance or viciousness unrestrained
without tie fear of punishment. or
from pure and high motives to ad-
vance a moral cause-but has there
been an orderly administration of the
law, just and perfect.
Numerous cases and decisions have
been cited, and it would not serve any
purpose to undertake to cite or refer
to them.
There seems to be no escape from
the conclusion that the directions on
MOS 4sesolo Qua 9l!nb9I sloUeq os3q}
tiny and the exercise Of keen intelli-
gcnce by an elector before he can ex~
ercisc his choice, and under these
directions the question for the people
is shifted and changed in its position
on the ballot, and this palpably di-
rectly in contravention of the com
mand Of the statute that all ballots
shall be alike. and with the plain
command of the statute that if they
are not alike they shall not be receiv-
ed or counted.
The law can be summed up, it
seems, that such statutes, as in this
case, are binding on the officers for
whose guidance and direction they
are needed, and so far as they affect
they are mandatory and must be en-
forced and, generally, if any irreg
nlarities occur in an official ballot due
to an error or a mistake of an election
officer, it is the rule that it will not
vitiate the vote Of an elector innocent
OF any wrong in the matter; but this
rule is subject to modification, that
ballot not in the prescribed form shall
not be counted, then the provisions OF
the statute are mandatory and the
courts must enforce them.
The exceptions not otherwise here
in sustained are overruled, and the
masters report to which exceptions
have not been sustained is confirmed.
The third exception is overruled.
A decree will be made IN favor Of
tn compliments in accordance with
these findings.
