Itosi-burR, Company 1), O. N. 0., Af
fected by New Order.
Portland. Dec. 20. Although the
Fourth Infantry, Oregon National
Guard, lacks a battalion of the cam
pigment of men and officers neces
sary for a regiment under the regu
lations, It will not lose Its regimen
tal identity, nor its aid from the fed
eral government, as a result of a
special Dispensation secured from the
war department
Undor the Dick law It 1b -provided
that no aid will be. extended to In
complete regiments bv the govern
ment after January 21, 1910. How
over, It Jc understood that the secre
tary of war can use hlB own discre
tion In the enforcement of this rul
ing at.d that he will make an excep
tion of ihe Fourth Oregon Infnntry.
The Ouardemen will be urged,
though, .to enlist more men. organize
more companies and bring their regi
ment up to conform with the regu
lations and it is thought that the
consideration shown by the war de
partment will produce greater Inter
est In militia matters 'through Eouth
tirn Oregon. -
Through Attorney General FIn?or,
the staff of the National Gunrd has
been working for a special ruling by
tho war department extending thlB
boon to be Fourth Infantry. At first,
the war department proposed that
the Fourth be converted to tho coast
artillery brunch, but the soldiers
tthemsolves weie opposed to this, pre
ferring to remain infantrymen.
Colonel Georgo O. Yoran is com
mander of the Fourth and nas his
headquarters at Eugene, where there
are. two companies. The other com
pnnleB are at Cottage Grove, McMInn
vllle, Albany, Dallas, Roseburg and
Ashland.

Eugcno Council Passes Ordinance to
Help Prohibition.
Eugene, Or. Dec. 18. The council
last night passed an ordinnnce declar
ing a common nuisance any place
where near beer or any other bever
age containing insufficient alcohol to
causo Intoxication is sold or kept for
sale A penalty of from $25 to J200
Is provided. The sale of near-beer
makes It difficult to enforce the city
ordinnnce against the sale of Intoxi
cating liquors, say i-upporters of the
ordinance.
The circuit court recently decided
against tho city's near-beer ordi
nance. A few daB later the state
supreme court upheld the ordinance,
declaring all places violating the lo
cal option law nuisances,

In Cases of Dyspepsia, ltlieiimntlsm,
Gout ami Nervous Hrenkdown,
Is Marvelous
Upon recont investigation by cmln
etn physicians, chemists and scien
tists It hna been demonstrated that
natural, earth flowing mineral waters
aro the most beneficial means for the
one of orgnnlc maladies.
Paso Hoblos Hot Springs are at
this tlmo tho point of Interest to most
InvostlgntorB, as rcctne occurences
have attracted the attention of the
thinking world to these springs
One of their chief points of inter
est to medicnl men Is said to be that
which proves that a pre-eminent ac
tion rests In the waters which flow
from tho earth at Paso Robles, Cal
ifornia.
Paso Robles Hot Springs are mak
ing cures daily of rheumatism, gout,
stomrfch trouble neurotic diseases,
kidney trouhle, and general break
down, which proves almost beyond
question to medical men that there
Is some quality In -these waters su
uerlor to any In this country and
probably In the world.
It Is nlso claimed for Paso Robles
that the air conditions are perfect. It
lies In a small valley protected by
mountnln ranges; Is 720 feet above
sea level and Is not assailed by too
much sea moisture or an abnormal
temperuluro from the hot land winds.
This air condition Is thought by
some to have almost as much to do
with its cures as the waters them
selves. The town like all health resorts,
Is filled with boarding houses of all
kinds, so that every purse will be
pleased. Thero are holelB for the
rich, where any luxury may be had.
Private baths for exclusive patrons
who wish to be to themselves.
These springs have been known
for centuries, for they were used by
the Indian to cure his sick nnd later
the Franciscan fathors -performed
wonderful cures here, ut It is only
recently that the really marvelous
powers of these waters were made
known to the world at large.
Nearly every form or organic trou
ble Is treated at these hot Bprlngs
for the authorities welcome all ex
cept those who have tuberculosis or
unclean diseases. For the mun who
Buffers from overeating or from alco
holic excesses there Ib nothing in the
world to equal a week spent at Paso
Roblea. It Btralghtens him out with
a rupidlty that is wondorful, and the
beBt recommendation Is that they do
away with the nerve-craving for stim
ulants because .of their peculiar
soothing effects upon the nervous
hyostem.
Truly speaking the study of Paso
Robles Hot Springs 1b one which Ib
giving the medical fraternity abroad
and at home much interest, and is
probably directing more attention
to California than any other of her
natural gifts to man.
A small book, neatly Illustrated,
haB been recently published by the
management telling the Btory of the
Hot Springs in a most interesting
manner and giving complete Infor
mation. Send for it, either to Wm.
McMurray, General Fusengor Agent
of the O. R. & N., Portland, Oregon,
or Dr. F. V. Sawyer, manager, Paso
Robles, California. tf.
