D's Impure Blood.
"What is it?" asks the mother as the
notices the smooth skin of her child
marred by a red or pimply eruption. It
is impure blood, and the child needs at
once to begin
the use of Dr.
Pierce's Golden

surest remedy
for impurity of
the blood. It
entirely eradi
cates the poisons
(which corrupt
the blood and

cures scrofula,
boils, pimples,
eczema, salt
rheum and other
eruptive diseases
which are the di
rect result of im
pure blood. It
enriches as well
as purifies the
blood.
"Dr. Pierce' medicine has not only bene
ted me greatly, but it has done wonders for
my two sous." writes Mrs. M. Hartrick, of

ABOUT THE FISH LADDER?
Is Fish Warden Van Dusen Remiss In
His Duty.
Fish Commissioner Yan Dusen is com
ing in for a large amount of vitupera
tion in these parts of late. It seems that
the last session of the Oregon legisla
ture passed an act appropriating $5,000
for the purpose of building a flub ladder
at Willamette Falls in ti is city. The
ladder was to have been built this sum
mer, and should have been completed
ere this. Yet not a stroke of work has
been done on the ladder, and so far as
completion is concerned it is just as tar
off as when the legislature adjourned
last winter.
Fieh Commissioner G. H. Yan Dusen
was approached about the matter some
weeks ago. He stated that the ladder
would certainly be put in before the
rainy season, and said that the only
reason Work had not begun was that the
plans bad not been drawn. It is known
that plans have been drawn, however,
and are in the hands of the commission
er and have been in his hands for some
time. This fact was learned by a num
ber of residents of the upper river, who
are directly interested in the matter, end
who hold Van Dusen personally respon
sible for the failure of the ladder to be
built.
It isbatdlv Probable now that the lad
der can be built this season, as heavy
rains have already set in on the upper
waters of the Willamette, and a consider
able rise may be expected at any time.
it is necessary lor the ladder to be built
duiing low water.
ANOTIIEB CHARGE.
Anothermatter that makes it appear
than Yan Dusen has been remiss in his
duty is the fact that while the closed
season for salmon fishing began Septem
ber 10, parties - who were in Astoria on
the 18th, saw fish being taken to the can
neries and markets that were caught
after the closed season began, and they
claim that Yan Dusen was aware of this
violation of the law.
People who live along the upper
waters of the Willamette do not get any
salmon. Hundreds of fish are daily
beating themselves to death against the
rocky walls about the falls in their strug
gle to get up the river and deposit their
spawn for the propagation of their race,
while $5,000 lies idle, the purpose of
which was to enable the fish to get up
the river and stock the stream with food
for future generations.

WHAT
To Test the Tax Law.
The case to test the existing tax laws
brought in Multnomah county before
the circuit court, Williams, Wood and
Linthicnm appearing as aplaintiff's at
torney and thecountv official as defend
ants, will be appealed as soon as practic
able, for final decision to the state fu
preme court. The question to be decid
ed is whether or not a valid levy of the
taxes of 1903 can be made. If the de
cision is adverse to the existing law, the
only way out of the difficulty will be a
special session of the legislature.
The basis of the suit is the contention
that the expense which Multnomah
county is now incurring in the prepara
tion of the asse sment roll is useless,
inasmuch as there can be no valid levy,
and the courts will be aBked to enjoin
any further expenditures. The argu
ment is that the act of 1903 will go into
effect January 1, 1904, and that it con
tains no provision for a levy of taxes
assessed under the previous law. The
new law seems to be a substitute for
that formerly in effect. As a necessary
consequence, it is argued, the assess
ment roll n being prepared will be
useles and further expenditure upon it
will be a waste of public funds.

New Machinery at the Electric Plant.
About three weeks ago the P. G. E.
Co started up one of the electrical gene
rators recently metalled, and this week
the other is to be placed in service.
The company's capacity is being con
tinually outdistanced by the demand for
more "juice," and these costly machines
with all the latest applicants will, for
the present, meet this demand. They
as well as the two waterwheels which
drive them, turn on horizontal shafts,
the shaft of each combined machine
running through the draft tube from the
wheel to the generator. Next year it is
probable that another addition will be
made to the concrete building and a con
ciete dam is a future necessity which
the company will have to meet, as now
much water runs to waste.
