ROW AT WOODBURY.

A jury trial in Justice Hayes court
Monday resulted in finding E. G. Haw
man guilty of assault and battery
and he was fined $l5 and costs, which
he paid. He was sorry he did moi
plead guilty in the first place, but
had an opportunity to display his legaI
ability and oratorical talent, and they
say he did pretty well, although nc
tears were seen streaming down the
cheeks of the Jurors.
Hawman was going along the road
with a hay wagon when along came
T. P. Soules in his automobile anC
sounded his alarm for Hawman to
turn out. Hawman took his time and
Soules got by and gave Hawman a
few words of advice. They subse-
quently met in Paul Sowa IS shoI
and had controversy over the mat
ter. Hawman says that Soules called
him a liar, but Soules and other wit
nesses don't think he did. At any
rate, Hawman slapped Soules face
and upon invitation presented Judge
Hayes with $15 and costs.-Woodburn

PASS THE FRUIT

When every pool in Eden was mirror
That unto Eve her dainty charms
proclaimed,
She went undraRed without a single
fear or
Thought that she had need to be
ashamed.
Twas only when she'd eaten of the
apple
That She became inclined 50 be a
prude,
And found that evermore she d have
to grapple
With the much debated problems of
the nude.
Thereafter she devoted her attention,
Her time and all her money to her
clothes,
And that was the beginning of con
vention,
And modesty-at least-so suppose.
Reactions came about in fashions re.

"The translation of that communi-

ment of Russia, in the reconstruction
of that country and the reorganization
of its forces and of the energy with
which that government is endeavoring
in the face of disloyalty and enemy

good faith of Russia, welcomes the as
surance now given by the provisional
government of Russia of its intention,
of which the president has had no
doubt, of being deferred by no diff.
Guilty in pursuing the war to final
triumph. No less gratifying to the pres
ident is the announcement by that gov
ernment, that like the United States,
Russia consecrates all its forces and
all its resources to this end.
"With this tenacity of purpose NOV
ing all the allied governments there
can be no doubt of the outcome of the
conflict now raging.

Street Gets Confidence
Stocks Climb Again

New York, Aug. 24.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said;
The reversal in trend in today IS
stock market was sharp and decisive.
The forward movement which advanc-
ed prices 10 to 3 points in both the in
dustrial and railroad lists was a direct
reflection of overnight improvement in
sentiment caused by the announcement
from Washington fixing the price of
anthracite coal. Wall Street is begin
ming to feel that the government is
disposed to deal fairly in the price
regulation. The entire list moved for
ward from the outset with here and
there an exception, but the volume of
trading was much smaller than yester
day. In the afternoon, however, the
movement was stayed by meeting with
sales of stocks which had been bought
recently for the purpose of supporting
the market. The stee and copper
groups gained one to two points and

Has Some Difficulty
In Securing Teachers

The war and changed condition and
the higher salaries now being offered
for men who are qualified to teach is
making it rather difficult for Superin-
tendent Todd to fill several positions.
The last man to resign is W. d. Fletch-
er, who last year had charge of phys
ical training in the high school. He
was reelected last spring but it just
happened that 1Qkmulgee, Oklahoma,
wanted man of Mr.. Fletcher IS train
ing and was willing to pay lot more
than Salem. Hence to keep even with
the higher cost of living, he resigned
in order to attach himself to the big
ger pay roll in Oklahoma. According to
the state law enacted by the last legis-
lature, school teachers must do their
resigning before the beginning of
school. After school once begins, resig.
nations for higher salaries are out of
the question as such action is now
frowned down on Y all educators.
Also boards of directors.

FIRE AT BoNNEY's

Hartley Bonney, east of Woodburn,
got permission to burn slashing ON Butte
creek and promised to do so Tuesday.
Wind blew the sparks over the Bonney
and Pfaffinger houses to the hill, where
they caught in other slashings, and the
fire ragged fiercely, burning slashings
and little timber over an area mile
long and quarter-mile in width to the
Claude Norton corner, where backfire
was set and the fire was got under
control. The homes and other buildings
had very narrow escape, especially the
Faulkner house.
A large number turned out to fight
the fire and it was only by hard work
that they succeeded in getting it under
control Several were there from Wood

out.
The next morning the fire again
broke out and got to Pfaffinger s onion

GOVERNOR REFUSES
REQUEST FOR TROOPS
State Forester Asks They Be
Called Out To Assist In
Fighting Fires

With a pail of smoke hanging over
the valley as the result of numerous
fires that have broken out since the
hunting season opened, and with the
forests dry as finder and the fires now
burning just waiting for a breeze to
fan them into a terrific conflagration,
Governor Withyeombe yesterday re-
fused the appeal of State Forester El-
liiott that he call out troops to prevent
incendiarlsm and guard against other
! fires.
The state forester made his plea on
the ground that the forest are in such
a condition that unless efforts are put
forth to limit the fires a stiff breeze
would sweep through everything. He
consulted Colonel Dentler, in command
of the troops of this district yester-
day in Portland and the colonel said
the use of the troops was in line with
the policy of the war department to
protect industry and especially to as
sist the lumber manufacture. Serious
fires in the northwest would cripple
many lumber mills.
Governor Withycombe refused the re-
quest on the ground that the presence
OF troops at the various points might
lnc1te others to set fires.
Forester Elliott said this morning
that there were no new fires reported
in but that the danger was great from
a stiff wind. If the weather keeps as it
is until the fires are all under control
the danger may be averted he says.
But he feels that the presence of troops
would be advisable at this time. If nee
essary the troops could be detailed to
fight the fires, if forces enough could
not be secured.
