senator HARRISON, of our sister State of Mississippi, although

Senator Harrisons fight against the caucus and Opposition IF

Purdy Denies
Fraud Charge;
Answers Suit

That she turned over to him and
the Oregon Investment company
properties valued at $4,000 for
the purpose of eluding some Of her
creditors, is the claim of Will r.
Purdy in his answer to the charge
of fraud filed against him in a
three-cornered suit by his code
fendant, Katherine Schleef, in the
suit brought by H. F.. Olmstead for
the recovery of $500 paid for a
farm.
Most of the property turned over
to Purdy, according to his answer,
was located in Douglas county.
and valued at $28,800, a 480-acre
farm in Klamath county, valued
by Mrs. Schleef at $4,000, a
house and lot in Medford valued
at 81, 500, three lots at North Bend
valued at $1,5GO, and also two
pieces of timber land valued at
$4,000.
Purdy claims that Mrs. Schleef
agreed to pay him $1,000 commits
sion to take over these properties
and deed them to persons named
by her and that she also agreed to
reimburse him for anything spent
in her behalf.
In February, Purdy states, Mrs.
Schleef came to him and asked
him to deed the Douglas county
property to her sister in California,
but that he refused to do so until
she paid him money he had spent
in her behalf repairing and i'm
proving a bath house operated by
her and Doar Bailey, of Salem;
and for deciding other property to
her sister in California and brother
at klamath Falls. He stated that
the bath house was dirty and un-
and would have been a
total loss to his former client if
he had not taken it over and ex-
pended $500 CT its improvements.
On his refusal to turn the prop
erty over to her sister, Purdy
states that she made out a second
mortgage to him, until she could
negotiate loan. He recorded the
property just nine days before she
succeeded in transferring the deed

Phone Users To
Hold Mass Meeting

Oregon City, March 12.-George
J. Hall, at one time manager here
of the Pacific Telephone company,
announced that a mass meeting
will be called soon of all the rural
telephone users in Clackamas
county for the purpose of entering
a protest over the recent telephone
rates advance which went into eff
feet March -.
Hall alleges that when the rural
lines were connected with the Pa
cific switchboard here, a con-
tract was signed at that time be-
tween the Pacific company and
rural lines in effect that $5.4O a
year would be charged for each
telephone, with the understanding
that if subscribers increased over
1000, a charge would automatical-
ly go into effect of 1920 UP to
5000 subscribers. 1t is claimed
that the present rural telephones
do not total 1000 at present. and
that the rural line representatives
were not consulted before the raise
was granted by the public service
commission.
According to the increase grant
ed "a few days ago by the public
service commission to the Pacific
company, rural telephone subscrib-
ers will have to pay 50 a year. i'm
stead of $5.40, the old rate. Nearly
every subscriber is protesting over
the excessive and exhorbitant rates
allowed, and it is expected chat
the mass meeting called to take
place here in few days. will see
every suh-riber in attendance.
