10 OREGON TCITY COURIER, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1907 HORNETS NEST STIRRED UP Ellngson As Supervisor Not Acceptable. STAFFORDITES OBJECT Claim Majority Want Henry Baker For Bosition Of ficials S2y they Work for Best Interest. Somewhat of a hornet's nest has been stirred up at Stafford, through the appointment by the court of Zach Ellngson as road supervisor of that district. Prior to the appoint ment a number of residents antagon istic to Elingson, circulated a petition which was signed, It Is alleged, by a majority of the citizens and proporly owners of the district asking that tfce court appoint Henry Baker to the pos ition. Their wishes were not com plied with, however, by the court, hence there Is much Indignation. The opposition' to Elingson claims that his appointment was made l further the political ends of certain persons and not tof" tho best welfare of the district In which he will work. Among the disgruntled ones a resii lutlon has been drawn up and slgno which It is expected will shortly b published denouncing the actions o the county officials in the matter an explaining why they think that tli present appointment was made an also why in their belief that It should not have been. The officials who made the appoint ment state that Ellngson has been th; road supervisor In the district for two years past and that his work speaks for itself as to his ability to success fully fill the position. Ho was appoint ed, they claim, solely on his merits for tho past work ho has done. In ref erence to tho petition circulated fav orlng Baker for the office they claim that in many instances it was signed by people who were led to believe by the petitioners that Elingson would not be an applicant again for the pos itinn. As the matter stands at the present time there is much bitter feel ing existing on both sides of the ques tlon. Objects to Mr. Ginther. Stone, Or., Jan. 2 Editor of the Courier: In reading over the piece that Mr. Ginther wrote in last week's Courier it made me feel sorry for him. I know there are hun dreds of preachers that do not know what law we are living under and all they do is to bewilder the people. The old Bible was the Jew's law book and everything they did whether good or bad, was written down in It, Now, Mr. Ginther, If all the dirty, mean tricks our smart men do were written down for us to read, how much better would It sound. Methinks you would be ashamed of them. The old patriarchs repented of their wrong doings, and walked right in the sight of God. How many nowadays will re pent and leave oft their sins? The first family married brother and sister. Cain took his sister and went to another country, and there knew his wife. Study up what that means. Oh, Ignorance, thou art not a jewel! The devil was in heaven and he disobeyed, and God hurled blm out of heaven to the earth. I don't know as It makes any difference whether God made the earth or sun first. Read Deut. 29 chap., 29 verso. When Christ came ho gave us new law. Christ did not even tell his dlclples to keep the Sabbath holy. I dare anyone to find such a sentence. MRS. J. L. MUMPOWER, A HOME CASE. DOUBLE CELEBRATION. Birthday Party and Class Re-Union Letter from Dr. Pope. Tho birthday of Miss Kate Barclay was the occasion for a happy reunion of the class of 1870 of the Oregon City aendemy at Miss Barclay's home Sat urday afternoon. Mrs. William E. Pratt acted as hostess for the affair and Miss Barclay was completely surprised at the sight of all of her classmates, who attended the Oregon City seminary when Dr. S. D. Pope was the principal. Dr. I'opo resided here six years and was a notable force in educational matters, and went from Oregon City to Victoria, where for a time he was superintendent of educa tion for the province and is now con ducting Queen's Academy, a finishing school for young ladies. He graduat ed from Queen's College at Kingston, Cnnada. Dr. Pope sent an interesting letter to his class and to each member a souvenir postal card on which were Inscribed questions that the former pupils were known to be defilclent In. The postals were used for place cards at tho luncheon that was served dur ing tho afternoon. Only one member of tho class of 1870 Is gone, N. W. Randall, who died sevoral years ago. Members of the class who were present were Miss Mary S. Barlow, Mrs. Jennie Barlow Harding, Mrs. Kale Hunsakor Nich olas, Mrs. Emma Miller Cnujirau, Mrs. Hattlo Barclay Pratt, Miss Kato Bar city, Mrs. Clara Canfleld Morey, who graduated in tho class of 1872, was al so a guest.

"If you have anything to do with medicines at all bo pretty sure you know what you are taking." Our local druggists, Huntley Bros. Co., say this Is a strong point in favor of their valuable cod liver preparation, Vinol. Everything It contains Is plain ly printed on tho laliel, therefore It Is not a patent medicine. Vlnol contains In a highly concen trated form all of the medicinal ele ments of cod liver oil, actually taken from fresh cod's livers, but with the useless nauseating oil illmlnated and tonic iron, which Is a licedl'ul constit uent for tlie blood, added. This is tho reason thut Vinol accom plishes such wonderful results lu cur ing chronic coughs, colds, bronchial and lung troubles, and there is noth ing known to medicine that will so quickly build up the run down, over worked tired and debilitated, or give ttrength and renewed vitality to the aged, as Vlnol. We can only ask every person in Oregon City who needs such a medi cine to try Vinol on our offer to re turn their money if It fails. Huntley Bros. Co., Druggists. Note. While we are solo agents for Vinol in Oregon City. It Is now for sale at the leading drug store In near ly every city lu the country. Look for the Vinol agency In your town. Many More Like It In Oregon City. Tho following case is but one of many similar occurlng dally In Oregon City. It is an easy matter to verify its correctness. Surely you cannot ask for hotter proof than such con clusive evidence. John Vigelius, barber, at 413 Main St., and living at the corner of Fourth and Washington streets, Oregon City, Ore., says: "Standing In a Btooped position for hours at a time, as is nec essary In my business began to affect my kidneys, and often my back would almost give out on account of the weakness and persistent dull aching. friend recommended Doan's Kidney Pills so I went to Huntley Bros, drug store and procured a supply. I found In a short time that they were doing me good. They relieved the aching pains and strengthened my kidneys and back wonderfully. That was some time ago and the continued relief has been lasting. A little over a month ago we began giving Doan's Kidney Pills to our child who has a tendency to weak kidneys, and the results have been gratifying In every way. Doan's Kidney Pills are a remedy deserving of the highest praise." For salo by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.
