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. Tho hostess was assisted
in the entertainment of her guests by
Mrs. .1. NelHon Wlsnor and Miss Dollle
Trait.
AN AGED PHYSICIAN.
After Fifty Years of Experience Gives
the Following Advice.
"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."

NATURES CATARRH CURE.
Sensible and Scientific Way to Cure
this Disagreeable Disease.
Iu no other way can catarrh be
cured as naturally and quickly as by
he uso of Hyomel breathed through
the neut pocket inhaler that conies
with every outfit.
In this way all tho air that enters
tho nasal passages, tho throat or the
lungs, Is filled with Hyomel hoallng
medication, reaching tho most remote
air cells of the respiratory organs,
and soothing and healing tho Irritated
mucous memberanes.
So strong is Huntley Bros & Co.'s
faith In the power of Hyomel to cure
catarrhal troubles, that with every
dollnr outfit they sell, they give a
guarantee to refund the money unless
euros.
The complete Hyomel outfit costs
but f 1.00, extra bottles, If needed, 50c.

that Switzerland was tho most eco
nomical country in the world, point
ing out that all labor was put to tho
'iest possible use and that even the
dogs of the country were compelled
'o earn their living by drawing sleds
and carts. There were no drones

country.
As to the manner in which tho gov

nvned all of the railroads, telegraph

and its inhabitants derived benefit
from nn economical point of view by
their so doing. A telephone message

the country for two cents of our money.

Early in December last we were called to Oregon City to close out the stock of goods remaining in the building -now
