I It will lake Hanker Ross 790 at St. Johns, was presented, read and placed on file. 1'etilion for tnc improvement of Learned street was referred to the street committee for investigation. Communication from Superinten dent Fuller stated that lights at St. John Heights would be repaired at once. Limior license of Ed Maroon was granted subject to the result of the election. Rock crusher bills to the amount of $42.50 for labor; for advertising bonds in New York paper, 119.50; Hendricks Hardware Co., for sup plies, $42.39 nnd II. King for la bor Si. 25, were allowed. On motion of Hunter it was cided to audit bills for labor on first and third meetings in month nnd on all other bills on first meeting of the month only. l'crsons having claims against the dc- thc the the years in prison to serve out his fine nt $2 per day, it is said.

We did not have room for them in last week's issue and have two weeks' issue in one. The showing docs not indicate it very severe stringency in money matters. We will put St. Johns up against any thing of her size for improvements nnd pro.sjKjrity. If the boys in St. Johns who have been in the habit of spending $15 or $20 it month for boo.e will deposit that amount In the bank evury mouth for the next two years and never drink a drop of joy water during that time, we will gtirautec thuiu a belter time, more money, belter friends, more of them and that they will never again resort to the jug shops for amuse ment thertmftir. - The St. Johns float attracted con siderable attention among those of the parade and was termed the "New revelation from the modern I'atmos by a St. Johns dreamer." Just you wait 15 or 20 years and you will see n fulfillment of the prophecy to the letter. We are In the procession nnd riding In the first car; and there are 110 black plumes 011 the horses, either. How Is this, you say you are n church member and voted for the saloon? Well, that skins me. We Resolution covcrinc the plans and specifications for the Improve ment of Oswego street was adopted on motion of Johnson. Resolution in condemnation pro ceedings for the widening of Willis Houlcvnrd appointing appraisers b. U. Cook, IJ, T. I.eggett and S. C. Norton passed the council. Ordinance for the Improvement of Richmond street passed the coun cil. b'lrc-crnckcr ordinance laid on table for a week on motion of John sou. Ordinance prohibiting the selling or giving of liquor to minors laid on table for n week 011 motion of Hunter. This ordinance we believe should we will have the nth and 12th grades taught in the public schools of St. Johns. We most certainly do not wish to be considered back numbers in education any more than in any other department of life. We would all consider it an insult to be called antiquated, out of date, be hind the times. Yet if wc vote to have but a two, instead of a four year high school course, and teach here only the 9th and 10th grades of high school work, wc would brand ourselves in the eyes of the whole state of Oregon, us well as the other western states, as being all that, and more too. liven little Hood River, with tic more than half the population of St. Johns, has her full four year course. If wc have the four year course wc will keep our voting people at home, the money incident to their will be spent in St. Johns instead of going to Portland and to the street car company. At home there will be two hours more every day for study or recreation than when the pupils arc obliged to ride to and from the city. There is less dan ger of accident, less opportunity for exposure and consequent sickness. Wc all know what the cars arc dur ing a great part of the fall and spring mouths, when it is too warm ior the heaters and too cold to run without them. Wc nil know the great number oi cases where a se vere com, icvcr, even pneumonia resulted from these rides. It cer tainly will be cheaper for us to keep the youngsters at home, where they can be comfortable, where we can be with them, licit) be passed by all means, for tlie them, enjoy their company ns much tcason that mnking it a state offense Instead of taking action under the city laws, nil the fines go to the stnte, whereas if there is n city law all the fines accrue to the city, and give greater force to the law be cause of its being a local matter in stead of general, City Attorney Collier presented written report stating that the city could not recover in their suit against the bondsmen for Yonntr- ferdorf and that they need not have paid the Yoiiugferdoif claims and that the city was short just that much money. Upon request of n number of cit izens, Captain Hlack asked for the appointment of a new special officer for the ball grounds. On motion of Hunter, the rock crusher was ortlered placed nt the as possible before they leave us for good; than to be obliged to send them to Portland two years (before they go to college) where they will be nwny from us nil day, where wc may know nothing of their com panions, where the expense is double what it would be at home, where everything is against their best interest and nothing to be gained. Let us all turn out and vote for n full four yenr course to be taught here in St. Johns. PETITION. A - To Mr. E. W. Robison, St. Johns, Multnomah Co., Or., School Dist.

Almost everybody knows Tom Roblsou, ami we do not be lieve anyone knows anything tletri menial to ji is good name, Peterson & Noce Sell.

Now don't ever neglect to exercise your right of suffrage, for when you do you put yourself politically on a level with the convict, We would rather see n man come to the polls and vote against our candi date than to not come at all.

There were three bands: the Oregon Journal silver cornet band, a baud of cowboys and n fakir band selling yesterday's photographs of the parade made last summer; toy balloons, and whistles.

The laud of the rising sun had one of the finest floats in the parade and the little brown men seemed to enter into the spirit of the occasion witli as much zest ns did the Amer icans. '1 he Yellow Dragon also had representatives iti the proces sion. There wos the biggest crowd in the city we have ever seen there. The congestion of people at Third and Morrison was terrific. People were lifted from their feet by the press, and Morrison from Tenth street to the bridge was an unbro ken sea of heads. We are told that many other streets were equally crowded, aud during the parade the carserviceon these streets was as effectually blocked as if it had been struck by a Dakota blizzard, Dissolution Notice. would have gone dry with a bigger our frKmls niay vote than we did Monday.

Some physicians say "Yes." Some say "No." The real question is, "What is meant bv Eczema?" If you mean those scaly eruptions, those dis eases which make their first ap pearance, not nt birth, but years afterward, and perhaps not until age, then there can 110 longer be any question but that these forms of Eczema are curable. Simple vegetable oil of wintcr grccu, mixed with other vegetable ingredients, will kill the germs that infest the skiu. Apply this pre scription to the skin, and instantly that awful itch is gone. The very moment the liquid is applied that agonizing, tantalizing itch disap pears, nnd continued applications of this external remedy soon cure the disease. Wc carry in stock this oil of Wintcrgrecn properly compounded into D. D. D. Prescription. While wc nrc not sure that it will cure all those cases of skiu trouble which nre inherited, wc positively know that this D. D. D. Prescription, whenever rightly used, will cure every last case of genuine Eczema or other skiu trouble, which did not exist nt birth. We know this. Anyway you, yourself, will know that D. D. D.

The difference between poor stock and first class stock on a job is a small item when you consider the value of the job. It is the price of a satisfied customer. It is better to make 50 cents less on a job and have a customer who will come back, than to use the flimsy stock, make the extra 50 cents aud lose your customer. That is the way we figure it.
