Get your money's worth
People are setting tired of it getting tired of being
held up they want their money's worth now the gold
brick days are over.
People used to be willing to smoke cabbage leaves in
place of Havana and pay good money for it if they got a
premium or coupon willing to buy tea and pay twice its
worth just to get a dish free those days are over people
want their money's worth now they want what they pay
for value received.
The line of general merchandise we sell offers you your
money's worth we don't have to offer you a lot of cheap
inducements to hide cheap quality. When you buy a pair
of shoes we don't throw in a premium, your money goes
into the value of the shoe. It's the same with our clothing,
hats, dry goods and groceries. We sell you the genuine
article at a reasonable price. THAT'S ALL. THAT'S
ENOUGH.

Railroads Must Pay
Profit Says Stubbs
J. C Stublw, "head salesman" of
transportation for the Harritnan
lines, was In Portland the first of the
-week and tn an Interview with an
Oregon Journal reporter said:
"One reason I cannot talk finally
abont buildttur a railroad Into
central Oregon Is because I have lit
tie to do with the construction
work," the traffic managrer explain
ed. "I am a salesman of transports
tlon. Did you ever look at It la that
way?
"We don't go around building rail
roads from one place to another for
the tun of It, not just because a par
ticular state or a particular city
thinks that that is the proper thing
to do. There must be an assurance
of returns on the money.
"People think of Mr. Harriman as
a center of a corporation, a thing
without soul or heart or feeling
one who lets his fancy or whim
dictate whether he shall favor one
locality or another. As a matter of
fact be is only an agent, handling
other people's niohey.
"The Union Pacific properties are
held by some 15,000 stockholders.
Including the Southern Pacific and
other lines, the stockholders number
several times that number. They
have put their money Into the rail
road enterprise lecause they want
something out of it. Suppose, then,
Mr. Harriman should come before a
meeting of the stockholders and pro
pose to build a railroad from Hunt
ington to Corvallis, across central
Oregon. All right; the stockholders
would say, 'build your railroad;
well furnish the money.' Then sup
pose tne rauroau never paid ex
penses.
"Well, Mr. Harriman's reputation
as a brilliant railroad man would be
lost. His head would go off just like
any other man's who fails to make
good. So In putting the railroad
through that country these things
must be considered. It is altogether
a commercial enterprise. The stock
holders don't care about the Oregon
country. What they want is returns
on their money. That is what they
clamor for; that Is what the man
who handles their money must pro
vfde for them. He's got to do it or
he drops underneath and a better
man takes his place.
"Twenty-five years ago the land in
that country couldn't have been
given away. Now It has been ex
ploited and It has been shown that
Irrigation and development will
make transportation tneilitlon Ine
vitable and the railroad, as n mat
ter of course, will be built. Hut as
railroad builders we had to be
shown." That Is all.
"I understand now thi;t Twohy
Bros, have opened up headquarters
and that all that constructors are
waiting on is the government right
of way, which will undoubtedly be
grauted soon.
Surveyors on Trout
Locating Steel Bridge
The Madras Ploueer reaches us a
little ahead of time this week. From
it we glean the following:
William Blair cf near Forter
Spring canyon, was a visitor In
town yesterday. He says a crew of
railroad engineers are camped at the
mouth of Trout Creek and are lay
ing out the steel bridge which
crosses the creek about a mile and a
half above Its mouth. There are 14
men In this party, and another
party is expected tomorrow to be
gin work in that vicinity.
L. E. Lawrence and L. Doonar
were iu town yesterday looking after
matters for the Pioneer Telegraph &
Telephone Co. They are arranging
to make a number of Improvements
in the telephone service at this place
and in this end of the couuty. and
are going over the line for that pur
pose. One of the first improvements
to lie made will be to connect the
Madras office up with Haycreek, giv
ing a more direct connection with
Sbaniko and outside points. The
wire has been ordered to finish out
this line and service will be opened
over It in a few davs.
