FINZEHS ANNUAL ltKPOKT.
Many Important Krcomitietidutious
for Oregon .Nutiouui Uuard.
SALEM, Or., Dec. 6 Many Im
portant recommendations are em
bodied In the biennial report of the
military department of the slate, sub
mitted yesterday by Adjutant-Gener
al W. E. Flnzer, to Governor Cham
berlain.
It la shown by the report that the
Oregon National Guard Is now in a
liiKh state of efficiency and that but
one change Is needed to bring the
entire organization up to a regular
a'iny basis as regards organization
This is the addition of four compan
ies of Infantry lo the Fourth Oregon
with headquarters at Eugene. These
four companies will be organized as
soon as practicable. W ar Depart
ment orders allow until January 20,
1910, for completion of the reorgan
ization.
In his recommendations General
Finzer gives a new solution of the
dllflcult problem of securing armories
for National Guard companies out
side of Portland. In this connection
he urges that It be provided by law
that all counties wherein guard or
ganizations are stationed must pro
vide suitable armories, such build
ings to be used for public meetings
only when not In use for drill pur
lioses.
Many HTomnK'ndutions Miule.
Other recommendations of Interest
to hundreds of guardsmen through
out the state are: That paymasters be
permitted to draw funds In advance
of camps of instruction for pay and
subsistence. This will save endless
delay and annoyance occasioned by
the old system now in use.
That as soon as funds are avail
able the troojis be supplied with
camp cots for use in the field. Such
cots are now UBed by the regular
army and add considerable to the
endurance and comfort of the men.
That an allowance be made the
commanding officer of each company,
battery and band to pay the quarter
master sergeants to care properly fo;
all public property, under such regu
latfons as may be prescribed by the
Military Board.
That an officer of the National
Guard detailed for duty in the Ad
jutant General's office for the pur
pose or conducting a service schoo
by correspondence.
That a board of officers be detailed
to make any alterations In the mili
tary law of the state that are found
necessary In order to entirely con
form tho organizations of the Nation
al Guard to those of the United
States army and report their And-
ngs to the legislature.
That an act be passed by the leg
islature prohibiting any person oi
oersons, or organizations, other than
the United States nrniy and the Nil
llonnl Gunrd, from wearing uniform?
or parts of uniforms similar to those
worn by members of the service.

About Dec. 15th, County Clerk
Ienox will receive the first set of
hooks for putting into operation the
new "loose leaf" system for keeping
?ounty records. This system is al
ready In use lu several counties in
Washington, and has been adopted,
in whole or In part, lu Marlon, Mal
heur, Josephine, Lane and other
ountles of this state.
The first books to be received here
for opening this Bystem are: Deed
record, mortgage record, county court
journal. Probate court journal. Rec
ord of Incorporations, Record of Min
ing Claims. While the first cost of
these books Is more than that of the
ordinary records, that will soon be
overcome by the very much smaller
expense of renewing them. With
these, qew leaves can be Inserted
from time to time, while with the old
system new books had to be pur
chased. With the increasing volume
of business of the county this had
grown to bo a considerable item,
which the new system will materially
lessen. Nearly all the larger business
establishments now use the "loose
leaf" system of books as a measure
of economy and convenience. With
these the county can, a little later
dispense very largely with the use of
a book typewriter for recording, as
loose leaves can be handled on an
ordinary typewriter with a wide car
rlage. ThLs will also expedite the
work of recording the numerous doc
uments filed for that purpose In the
office of the county clerk.

S.S.S.
BEST TREATMENT
FOR CATARRH
S. S. S. is the best treatment or Catarrh because it is a perfect blood
purifier. It is the only medicine that is able to get down- into the circula
tion and entirely remove the catarrhal matter and impurities which produce
the trouble. As long as the mucous membranes and tissues are kept inflamed
and irritated by this impure and infected condition of the blood Catarrh will
remain. Its disagreeable and dangerous symptoms, of ringing noises in the
ears, mucus dropping back into the throat, headaches, watery eyes, difficult
breathing, and even stomach disorders and weakened health, cannot be perma
nently relieved until the blood is purified. Nothing equals S. S. S. for this
purpose. It goes down to the very root of the trouble, and removes every
particle ot the catarrhal matter from the blood and enriches this vital fluid so
that all the mucous surfaces are supplied with nutritive, healthful qualities, in
stead of being constantly irritated and inflamed by impurities in the circula
tion. Then the symptoms begin to pass away and when S. S.S. has entirely
purified the blood, Catarrh is permanently cured and the general healt'
greatly built up. Book on Catarrh and any medical advice desired sent frt
to all who write,

HAPPY RESULTS.
Have Made Many Roseburg Residents
Enthusiastic.
No wonder scores of Roseburg citi
zens grow enthusiastic. It is enough
to make anyone happy to llnd relief
after years of suffering. Public
statements like the following are but
truthful representations of the dully
work done In Roseburg by Doan's
Kidney Pills.
A. O. Hons'jr, Jackson St., Rose
burg. Or., says: "I had considerable
trouble from a lame back and when
doing any work that brousht a strain
on the muscles of the back I suffered
terribly. During one of th.ese spells
I procured Doan's Kidney Pills from
A. C. Marsters & Co's. drug store and
found such great relief from their
use in a short time that I did not
feel It necessary to continue their
use. My back was greatly strength
ened and though 1 have worked
steadily since, I have not had a re
turn of the backache."
