Blacks1niths of
Valley Meet In
Salem, Sunday

Facing a binding storm which
prevailed most of the time yester-
day, members of the Willamette
Valley Blacksmiths, Horse Shoers
and Welders association from sew
eral towns in the valley attended
the regular annual meeting held
in the Foresters hall on CONNER
cial street. Representatives from
Candy, Portland, Sheridan, Dom
aid, Woodburn, Silverton, Stayton,
Turner and Scio were in attend
ance and the delegates from OUT
side towns seemed greatly disap-
pointed to find only one member
of the association from Salem
present. A short business session
was held in the forenoon, after
which lunch was had at a local
restaurant.
In the afternoon occurred the
election of officers. VIM. Maple of
Candy, was elected president; j.
c. Moore of Donald, was re-elect-
ed seoretaryi Paul Soua of Wood
burn, treasurer and l.. A. Roberts
of Portland, vice president and
general organizer.
When the association was or
ganized several years ago it COW
cred only a portion of Marion,
Yamhill and Clackamas counties.
The constitution was changed re-
Gently to include all Of the Will
lamette valleys and the member
ship has developed wonderfully.
But owing to inclement weather
or a lack of interest the attend
ance was comparatively small at
the meeting yesterday. There are
something like nine or ten con-
Germs in Salem identified with the
association, but only one was rep
resented at the meeting held here
Sunday. The association holds two
meetings each year, according to
the constitution, unless a special
meeting is called. The next meet
ing will be held in July. 1921, and
the members plan to make 1t a
picnic occasion.

a woman.
Fires Dying Out
The week end of terror and wild
destruction through which Cork
passed left in its train terrible
welter of ruin. There have been
no fresh outbreaks of shooting
and the conflagrations mostly
burned themselves out but today
the finest part of the city lay n
mass of ruins. In st. Patrick
street, solid blocks of business
premises the most imposing In
Cork have been wiped out
The city engineer stated today
that the destruction was on q
scale too great for him to make
an immediate estimate of the mum
ber Of buildings destroyed. IE1
other quarters II was said more
than three hundred buildings had
burned with the loss OF more than
100000 pounds sterling.
1t was a matter of wonder in
Cork today that no one appears
to have perished in the flames.
People Flee Wildly
The terror which possessed the
-city Saturday night was unpaIsai-
leled Many residents in the vicIn-
ity of Dillon's Cross where the
military cadets were ambushed
Saturday night, fled in fear and
spent the night in the fields.
Throughout Sunday the panic
continued and an exodus from the
city occurred. Strong mobile bod
les of soldiers took possession of
the streets to prevent further acts
of incendiarism and attempts to
loot.
Today Cork was strangely quiet;
with crowds gazing hopeIcssIy
and awed at the heaps OF smoking
ruins. The belief is general that
the fires unquestionably were the
result of incendiarism.
Two districts of Cork were
swept. In the business section.
along st. Patrick's street. from
Cook to Maylor, hardly a shop
was left unscathed. This was the
shopping center of Cork. Soutn of
st. Patricks the fire spread along
Winthrop street and other mar
row thoroughfares as far as Old
George street. Thus an area of
three blocks in this part of the
town was reduced to debris.
1t was not in this district, how
ever that the loss of the fire WAS
centered.

Cork, located on the southtFn end
