OREGON CITY COURIER, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 190? TWO ROUTES PERSONAL MENTION Oharlea A. Smith, of Astoria, was A O J rilfilC C T in tlio city on business Tuesday. Board of Trade Ljoks Stafford Roads. Into EITHER SURVEY IS GOOD Report of Special Committee on Assessment and tax ation Creates Interest Among Members. Attention was turned at Friday's meeting of the Board of Trado to the proposed routes tor a onnnty road from Willamette to Stafford. Two routes have been suggested and oach have 6trenuous advocates, Commissioner Brobst and ex-Representative! J. L. Krnse faroriua one route and Hon. T. L. Turner and Jatnes Sharp standing uy tlio other. Mr. Cross said that he believed that the sentiment in the vi- oinity of Stafford was 2 to 1 in favor of the Turner road. Both roads will have to be improved soonef or later and either survey will make a good road. The nountycourt has asked for bids on both projects with a probable viow of determining the comparative eost. Tlio Brobst roan will cost from $500 to .1000 less than the Tnmer road. For all the residents of tne im mediate vicinity of Pete's mountain, the Turner route is the shortest, hut the difference in cost is not the most important feature, the principal thing Doing tne maintenance ana the neoes- sityor naving tne rigr.t way rnado in the first place. After considerable disouasion, the ma'tor was finally re forred pending the action of the county oonrt. Report of the special committee on assessment and taxation created great interest. The assesed valuation of the property of the Oregon Water Power & Railway Co., the Oregon & California Railroad Co., the Portland General Electric Co., Willamette Pulp & Paper Co., Crown Pulp & Paper Co., and the Oregon City Manufactur ing Co. was shown, and a motion pre vailed to have the special committee present the matter to the county board of equalization at its meeting this week. Assessod valuation of both the Oregon & California Railroad Co. and the Oregon Water Power & Kail way Co. has been increased $1000 a mile on the road bed this year. It is estimated that $25,000 is a reasonable figure to place the cost of construc tion of the Oregon & California Rail road Co. in Clackamas county. The average valuation in Willamette Val ley counties is SoOOO per mile. It was stated that the O. & 0"K. R. Co. had the only outlet from this vicinity on this side of the river and that one year ago Manager Koehler ag:ed to a valuation of $8500, but fearing that assessors of other Willamette Valley oounties would make a similar assess ment, a compromise was effected by increasing the valuation of tl)9 com pany's lands. Last year the roadbed of the O. W. P. & Ky. Co. was assessed ac $3500 per mile, and will be $4500 this year. The worst part of the roadbed of this com pany is inside of the corporate limits of Oregon City. J. O.

The Better Way The tissues of the throat are inflamed and irritated; you cough, and there is more irrita tion more coughing. You take a cough mixture and it eases the irritation for a while. You take SCOTTS EMULSION and it cures the cold. That's what is necessary. It soothes the throat because it reduces the irritation ; cures the cold because it drives out the inflammation ; iunldff up the weakened tissues i t-cause it nourishes them back i.) their natural strength. That's ..a' Scott's Emulsion deals with i-ore throat, a couo-h. a cold. ' r-t t J i Drone hitis. WE'LL SEND YOU A SAMPLE FREE.
