The ladies of St. Clement's parish gave a delightful dance in the rink Monday night. The rink was dec orated for the occasion in a tasteful way, the music was as fine as could be procured, and the floor was nev er in better shape. All enjoyed the occasion immensely. Quite a fight is being put up for county superintendency. Hender son and Armstrong are both mak ing a vigorous campaign, while Robinson, who is seeking to retain the position, has a strong following in spite of the charges that half of his time is devoted to other af fairs, and that he neglects his du ties, 1 he salary is Sj.soo per vear with the services of a stenographer thrown in. When a store cuts down its ad vertising the effect is not unlike that of a train that started on a thousand miles run, "backs up," goes on to sidings frequently, slows down and in every way disregards Its running schedule and the service it owes to passengers. A train with such habits may eventually complete the trip -but on its next trip there will be fewer passengers. A store that advertises as a part of its Service-Obligation to its patrons cannot afford to disregard that obli gation, or to slight it.

A spirit of that kind is "catching." Try it on and see how it works. In this case, "Do as I do," is worth a thousand of the "Do as I say." In other words "example is better than precept." It will pay to set a good example. Try it and see if it don't. A, A. Bailey appears to be far in the lead for county commissioner. He is a good, clean man with a leg islative record of several years. He promises St. Johns all she is entitled to. Bailey is a good candidate to join forces on. Look for Bailey's name wheu you are marking your ticket. p-a. A chiua wedding was celebrated at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Swengel on South Ivanhoe street, Tuesday evening, in honor of their 30th wedding anniversary. A very happy little company, consisting mostly of relatives, arms loaded with presents and good things to eat took possession to the surprise of those within. For Insurance see F.W.Valentine A committee has been appointed from the Commercial club to induce the county commissioners to install fire apparatus in the new ferry boat that is now being constructed. This is a good act, and the request should be acceded to by the commissioners. It would afford fire protection to the water front. Later The com rnittee of one, P. H. Edlefsen, yes terday afternoon interviewed the commissioners in regard to the mat ter. and they agreed to install the apparatus for fire fighting.

McKin ney & Davis, The board of governors of the Commercial club favors the pur chase of a team of horses and equip ment by the city for the purpose of of hauling the chemical engine for the fire department when occasion arises, and for the purposes of tak ing care of city garbage and to haul the sprinkling wagon in the good old summer time. The idea is a good one, but until the next levy is made funds available for the pur pose are hardly in sight. Miss Lillian M. Cochran of Her- midji, Minn., is here fora visit of a few months.

A-siMftcrin'er wants to know if it is any worse to hold up a legisla ture for. a whole session than to pay those who did hold it up. He fur ther statesthat Jonathan Bourne held up 'the fegislaturc and Ben Selling advocated and voted for paying the legislators. It seems there was nothing else thai lien could do. Legislators are paid for the time they serve, not for the work they do. o Harrv Sutton wishes to announce that the invitations issued by him for Saturday evening dances in Hlckuer hall are good for the sea son, and not for one night only, as few have imagined.

St. Johns Pharmacy FREE Generally Fail There is a great deal of talk now about co operative stores and all that, but the history of co-operative stores and such like is largely one of failure. Of course there have been some exceptions, but not many. Many a man who has thought there were excessive profits in certain lines of business, has found to his sorrow when he put his money into a venture that prof its are not nearly so large as he imagined. It is very easy to think that it is the other tellow an the (Imp who is makliic the hit? profits. It is but human nature to think we ought to be able to sell our wares and products at a liberal price, but that the fellow from whom we buy should be content with a narrow margin. Ex. Sorry to Lose Him According to the conference ap pointments, Rev. Guy R. Stover has been appointed to the Dallas charge, and will fill the pulpit at that place Sunday, moving his fam ily to his new field next week. We are very sorry that Mr. Stover was not permitted by the conference to dwell longer in our midst. He is an earnest, active worker, faithful and courageous, and has made ma ny friends in St. Johns. Rev. W. S. Plowman of Adna, Wash., will succeed Rev. Stover in the charge here. Rev. H. L. Pratt of Port land will occupy the pulpit of the Evangelical church both morning and evening next Sunday. For State Senator Mr. E. E. Coovert is candidate for the republican nomination for state senator of Multnomah county. The primaries will be held on April 19th, and being personally acquaint ed with E. E. Coovert wc wish to endorse his candidacy for this nom ination. Mr. Coovert has been ac tively engaged in the practice of law for the past 17 years in Port land, and his standing as a lawyer, as n business man and as a man of affairs is surpassed by no one. His honesty and integrity and fairness is unquestioned. The state having adopted the in itiative nnd referendum system of legislation, and it having become necessary to adopt new laws and to re' model the code of procedure and judiciary system of this state, so that our courts may progress equally with the legislature, it will be incumbent upon the next lcgis turc to adopt laws to carry the new laws into effect. We know of no man better qualified to act on be half of the people in these most im portant matters than E. E. Coo vert. Mr. Coovert stands for good roads, for the full development of the state's resources, for relief from the congested court dockets in both the circuit court and the supreme court. Mr. Coovert favors the interstate bridge across the Columbia from Vancouver. The voter?) should re member that should such a bridge be built it would be of inestimable value to the city of St. Johns and it would add greatly to the devel opment of the peninsula, and to the resources of our city. We can heartilyendor.se Mr. Coo vert as a man of high integrity and honor.with a high sense of both pri vate and public duty, and also as a lawyer wno.se most excellent repu tation and long experience best qualifies him for the position he seeks. We suggest that you in clude E. E. Coovert amongst your choice of five candidates for state senators. Frank P. Drinker, Perry C. Stroud. Lewis For Legislature The primary election will be held on April 19th, This is a most important day, not only to the state of Oregon and to Multnomah county, but also to St. Johns. By reason of the decision of the su preme court in the annexation case St. Johns has taken a new lease of life. Every citizen of this city should endeavor to promote the in terests and welfare of St. Johns. It would seem that St. Johns ought to have and must have a rep resentative who will not only work night and day in the interests of this community, but who can be depended upon to fight for what this city justly deserves. D. C. Lewis of this city is a can didate for the legislature. His in terest lies with St. Johns. His home is in this city. He is an ex perienced attorney and a student of political science, ami wen quauueu to act as representative of this dis trict. In Mr. Lewis the voters could feel that they had for their representative a man upon whom they could rely with absolute as surance that the interests of the city of St. Johns would be protect ed, and with the assurance that they had a man who would force the legislature and the state at large to acknowledge St. Johns' claims for recognition as one of the the first cities of the state. Let the voters not forget that now is the time to forward their in terests by the selection of a citizen of this city to represent them in the legislature. l'erry u. fctrouu.

It was the regular meeting night of the club, and a goodly number was in attend ance. After the business of the club had been disposed of, C. C. Chapman, president of the Portland Commercial club, made a few pleas ing and interesting remarks. He congratulated the club upon secur ing the services of Mr. Crawshaw, whom he lauded most highly. He roundly scored the program adver tising fakirs and advised business men to patronize the local paper in stead. The Portland Commercial club, he said, would be only too glad to co-operate witlt the local club at any nud nil times. His ad dress was heartily applauded. He was followed by Capt. Geo. Pope, president of the Oregon Sweet Pea association, who extended nu invi tation to the people of St. Johns to exhibit their flowers nt the state show in Portland July 9 nnd 10, and also stated that the association would be glad to send the flowers to St. Johns after the show.if want ed. II. C. McAllister, secretary of the Elks' convention committee, suggested that the club make nu ef fort to have the motor boat races of F.Iks' week pulled oiT nt St. Johns. He promised his help toward this cud, and stated that St. Johns was far better adapted for this exciting event than Portland. He believed fully 30,000 Elks would come down for the occasion besides innumera ble other visitors. The matter will be taken up by the board of gover nors, and no effort left undone to secure this great attraction in con nection with the sweet pen exhibition.
