March 13. (To the Ed itor.) Through your paper I wish to say to those people wno iiave unuerai spring on their places, or know where such ipringl exist in thi oounty, anu will let me know by letter or otherwise, I will cause the waters to be analyzed if desirable and tend the results to the parties interested. My object la to nave the varioua place examined in reference to gas, oil, sulphur, soda and other val uable properties. There are some poison springs in this county; one on Tide creek, and one on the Barr place, on Lower Clatakanie. There is an oil spring on Upper Neha- lem. lhta i am tota, anu. oeiievo w im true. . ' . I have bad the waters of several mineral springs tested, which are lo cated near here. One chalybeate spring, one which contain gas. I have stated in Th a Mist that I would show tlvese places to anyone who wished to see them. I have been in this county a good many years, and have made an exami nation of the timber, coal iron and other minerals, and am of the opinion that If our resources were properly made known to men of capiul at once the develop ment would be made of the things spoken of. Our first need ia railroads to take the timber out of the way in order that farms can be opened and tbeir pro ducts Uken to market. One more thing I wish to say is that thi county has been in sUtu quo since the world began, and will remain the eame indefinitely unless the timber, coal, iron, oil and gas is used to better advantage than iormerly. C Cr. Caplxs. Record Chattel Mortage. Hereafter, under the law, the chattel mortage must be recorded in the office of the county recorder. This will prove to be a matter of revenue, as it costs more for. recording than it did when they simply required filing inthe coun ty clerk's office. It required fifty cents to pay for simply filing, but the record ing run from one to two dollars, accord ing to the amount of work on the instru ment. ., . - - : When you are bilious, use those fa mous little pills known as DeWitt's Litr u v.rlo Riaera to cleanse the liver and bowels.
