It is not probable that Mr. Sell wood valued highly the fruit trees cut down by the fruit inspector. Re gretting, however, the necessity of his suffering some loss, the decision against him and sustaining the fruit inspector was the salvation of the fruit industry in Clackamas County. The trees for a family orchard will cost about $10. If you have an old worm-eaten, moss-covered orchard, set out an acre of young trees of se lect varieties. Don't put off, but do it right away. Cut down the worth less old trees patch up a few of the better ones spray and take care of them until the young ones come into bearing, then let them go, too. There is no need to prepare to fight the fruit inspector. Public sen timent should back him up while he makes war on old orchards. They are a disgrace to the community that tolerates them. With persistent enforcement of the law, within a few years we will have throughout the Valley, (nice sleek fruit trees ornamenting every farm. Mr. Babcock says that Senator La Follette is a demagogue. There is no use in Mr. Babcock being peevish. He is only suffering with what has hap pened to better men before. Whatever other criticisms the Pres ident may have to make on Panama, he cannot complain of having had a dry time while he was there. It is now announced that the Duch ess of Marlborough is going to marry again. This will be taken as conclu sive proof by some censorious people that she did not deserve the luck of losing her first husband. Jim Jeffreys, the prize fighter, is going to open a saloon. He is not the first man who has come to see that there is more money in selling than in drinking it and that there is economy in wholesale prices. Mrs. Russell Sage says it is quite true that she is not going to give away her fortune. Like most wealthy people, she will entrust that job to her exeeutor. Mr. Rockefeller wanted to plea guilty in the civil suit against the Oil Trust if they would guarantee him in oemnity from criminal prosecution This might be a good point for th Government to remember when th criminal suit is brought. The report of Senator Piatt's resig nation seems to have been confirmed and approved by almost everyone ex cept Senator Piatt. Honorable Joe Choate got off joke in New York the other day When some one asked him the differ tnce between President Roosevelt and ex-President Cleveland, he replied that one was too lazy to hunt and the other was not lazy enough to fish. REGARDING THE LIBRARY. There are few towns the size of Oregon City that do not enjoy the advantages of a public library. This fact is greatly to our discredit. The proposition is up to us now library or no library so let us all put our shoulder to the wheel. The sign of progress is "books." The home that sparkles with bright minds and happy thoughts is the home with the corners packed full of books. But every home that would like such luxuries as good Ask Your OwnDoctori If he tells you to take Ayer's Cherry Pectoral for your severe cough or bronchial trouble, then take It.

Few can have a very large selection. This is why we should have a public library. If we can not have such an institu tion, a town of 5,000 inhabitants, let us take a back seat. We are sit ting there now let us move forward. THE HESPERIAN. Much credit is due the young peo ple of the High . School, who have produced the Hesperian. It is a bright little publication, and speaks well for the enterprise as well as the ability of the student body. School books teach very little of . ractical life. They furnish only a foundation whereon to build in later years. But a college paper affords opportunity for applying, in a practi cal manner some of the theoretical knowledge that is gained from day to day. All high school students should be urged to interest themselves in their little publication. They have made a s lendid beginning let them keep on. IHD1GESTION A CRIME. Don't You Want a Keen Appetite and Perfect Health Once More. It is a positive crime to suffer witl die ills of indigestion, sucli as head i die, backaohe, sleeplessness, nansea, and distress after eating, with des p udency autl nervousness, now tint the guaranteed Mi-o-na stomach cablets can be obtained from Huntley Bros. Co. Use this remedy, and keen appetite, vigorous diges ion, strong heart aotion, pnre blood, nerves ot stool and natural strength and health will be restored to you quickl?. Mi-o-na is entirely different from all other remedies that are recommended for the enre of indigestion, for it strengthens .all the digestive organs and is not a mere digestive. Ask Huntley Bros. Co. to show yon the guarantee they give with every 50 cent bos . of Mi-o-na. The remedy will not cost a penny unless it cuies. Victim of Drugs. W. E. Gregory was Saturday aft ernoon committed to the insane asy lum by Justice Stipp. Gregory is an opium and cocaine fiend and while in the Electric Hotel Friday night broke up the furniture and was land ed in jail. He is completely under the influence of drugs and is crazed by their use. Gregory lived in this city about five years ago and worked in the paper mills. He is not more than 26 years of age. Pirating Foley's Honey and Tar. Foley & Oo., Chicago, originated Honey anu Tar as a throat and lung remedy, and on aooonnt of tbe great merit and popularity of Foley's Honey and Tar many imitations are offered for the genuine. These worthless imitations have similar son ml in uaines. Heware ot them. The aunuine Foloy's Honoy and Tar is i a yellow package. Ask for it and refuse any substitute. It is the best remedj for coughs and colds. Round Trip Rate Cut Off. The Oregon Water Power & Rai way Company, in accordance with its custom, has abolished the Sunday round-trip rate of 25 cents betwee this city and Portland. The special months and has been in force later than usual this year. Several weeks ago the company discontinued th rate out of Portland and return, but has been selling special tickets from lie local office. A Year of Biooa. The year 1908 will long be remembor ed in the home of F. N. Taoket. of Alliance, Ky. , as n year of blood which flowed so copiously from Mr, Taoket a lungs that death seemed vory near. He writes:, "Severe bleeaing from the lungs and a frightful cougl: had brought me at death's door, when I began taking Dr. King's New Dis novery for Consumption, with the astonishing result that after taking fonr bottles 1 was completely retsorou and as time has proven permanently cured."

In the Circuit Court, Friday, the testimony in the divorce of Johanna Boe vs. Jens A. Boe, was taken and udge McBride took the case under dvisement until January, pending an adjustment of the property interests between Mr. and Mrs. Boe. Judge Dimick, who appeared for the defen dent, made a statement in open court fter the conclusion of the testimony, fating that his client was willing and esirous to make suitable provision for his family and as soon as he could ispose of his farm near Needy, would invest a portion of the pro ceeds in a smaller place for the bene fit of his wife and children. Mrs. Boe, who is represented by Attorney George C. Brownell, alleges cruel and nhuman treatment, drunkenness on the part of her husband.

In line with the proposed monument to the memory of Dr. Jonn Mc Loughlin the founder of Oregon City and the Father ot Oregon, the name of St.John's farocnial aud High School will after September? 1007, bear the name of Dr. John McLouglin's Institute. There is no school or publio itiBiirot inn nf any kind established in Oregon City under thai mime and it has always been in the mind of Hev A. Hillehruud of St Johns Ohurh to honor the memory i D". Mi'ljonuhl n lv ffviiiir the gi'lmnl Ins mi mo. Mom, Riv. Alexander Christie, Arclibis op of Irejiorj Cry, was here Sunday to confirm a class at St. Johns Qliorch and heartily eurioised the idea mid in his sermon rielegtaed Fathe Hillehruud to tafce tlin steps neeesaiy t' effuse the change in the name of the school The pastor of St. Johns Chnroh lias labored faithfully in this city for tlis last IS years for thorough ness in education and he lias been ably assisted by an effloieut corps of teachers. The school stands high in this state but during the last yeai has been hampered by lack of room and this will be remedied during the coming year by the construction of a new building accomodating 250 to 800 pupils. Poth the Archbishop and Father Hillebrand are very en thusiastio over the matter and will doubtless have the aid of the people of this city in constructing a school building that will not only be an honor to the oity as an institution of higher education acces-ible to pnpils no matter what their creed, but also an honor to the memory of the man whose name it will bear. Arclibisliup Ohristie has already given the proposition encouragement by promis ing a subscription of $500. In'tlie near futnre an architect will be engaged to make plans for a build ing witli every modern improvement as to school rooms and a hall and gymnasium will be added and it is proposed to open the school with appropriate ceremonies in September, 1907, on the 60th anniversary of toe death of Dr. McLoughlin.

Refreshments were served during the evening and the Mihlstin home was beautifuMy deco rated with ivy, cut flowers and Ore gon grape. IGA of IN speaking of his good health and extreme old age, Mr. Brook says : "After a man has lived In the world as long as I have, he ought to bav found out a great many things by ex perience. I think I have done so. "One of the thing? I have found out to my entire satisfaction Is the proper thing for ailments that are due directly to the effects ot the climate. For 117 years I have withstood the changeable climate of the United States. "I have always been a very healthy man, but, of course, subject to the af fections which are due to sudden changes In the climate and tempera ture. During my long life I have known a great many remedies for coughs, cold and diarrhoea. "As for Dr. Hartman's remedy, Peruna, I have found It to be the best, If not the only, reliable rem edy for these affections. It has been my standby for many years, and I attribute my good health and extreme old age to this remedy. "It exactly meets all my require ments. It protects me from the evil ef fects of sudden changes; it keeps me in good appetite; it gives me strength; It keeps my blood in good circulation. I have come to rely upon it almost en tirely for the many little things for which I need medicine. "When epidemics of la grippe first began to make their appearance In this country I was a sufferer from this disease. "I had several long sieges with the grip. At first I did not know that Peruna was a remedy for this disease. When I heard that la grippe was epidemic catarrh, I tried Peruna for la grippe and found It to be Just the thing. " In a later letter, Mr. Brock writes : "I am well and feeling as well as I have for years. The only thing that bothers me is my sight. If I could see better I could walk all over the farm, and it would do me good. I would not be without Peruna." Yours truly, When old age comes, it brings with it catarrhal diseases. Systemle catarrh is almost universal in old people. This explains why Peruna has become so indispensable to many old people. YOUR EAR! & CO., SKJfSS 3 PJi!,c Gtoczt Made Happy for Life.
