NEW HOME 'PHONES.
Company Is Making Connections With
Many West Side Points. '

ments have been made to connect
tarmer 'phones on the west side of the
river with the Oregon City central of

subscribers at Stafford, Sherwood,
Shaw's Ferry, Oswego, Tigardville

states that when the details are
worked out that the company will have
about 900 telephones in Clackamas
County. The Molalla Mutual Tele
phone Association has decidedMo build
a new line into Oregon City, as the
line running from Beaver Creek is
crowded with business, and rapid con
nection cannot be established under
present conditions.

Making Good.
There is no way of making lasting
friends like "Making Good;" and Doctor
Pierce's medicines well exemplify this,
and their friends, after more than two
decades of popularity, are numbered by
the hundreds of thousands. They have
"made good" and they have not made
drunkards.
A good, honest, square-deal medicine of
known composition is Dr. Pierce's Oolden
Medical Discovery. It still enjoys an im
mense sale, while most of the prepara
tions that nave come into prominence in
the earlier period of its popularity have
"gone by the board" and are never more
heard of. There must be some reason for
this long-time popularity and that Is to
be found in its superior merits. When
once given a fair trial for weak stomach,
or for liver and blood affections, Its supe
rior curative qualities are soon manifest;
hence it has survived and grown in pop
ular favor, while scores of less meritorious
articles have suddenly flashed Into favor
for a brief period and then been as soon
forgotten.
For a torpid liver with its attendant
Indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, per
haps dizziness, foul breath, nasty coated
tongue, with bitter taste, loss of appetite,
with distress after eating, nervousness
and debility, nothing is so good as Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It's
an honest, square-deal medicine with all
Its ingredients printed on bottle-wrapper
no secret, no hocus-pocus humbug,
therefore don't accept a subntitnie that
the dealer may possibly make a little big
ger pro lit. Insist on your right to have
what you call for.
Don't buy Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion expecting it to prove a "cure-all. " It
is only advised for woman's sptcial ail
ments. It makes weak women strong and
Sick women well. Less advertised than
some preparations sold for like purposes,
its sterling curative virtues still maintain
its position in the front ranks, where it
stood over two decades ago. As an in
vigorating tonic and strengthening nerv
ine it is uneqtialed. It won't satisfy those
who want " booze," for there is not a drop
of alrnhol In it.. -
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, theorftfi
nnl Little Liver Pills, although the firxt
pill of their kind in the market, still lead,
and when once tried are ever afterwards
In favor. Easy to take as candy one to
three a dose. Much imitated but never
equaled.
MOLALLA ROAD
IN FROM CANBY
LARGE UNDERTAKING"" MAY BE
FINANCED ENTIRELY BY
LOCAL CAPITAL.
WILL TAP' FINE COUNTRY
Buckman Tract of 400 Acres Is Be
ing Surveyed to be Cut into Small
Homes and Country Begins to
- Take On New Life.
Canby, Or., Jan. 15. A meeting will
be called at Canby shortly and a work
ing organization effected for further
ing the proposed Canby-Molalla rail
road. A corporation will be formed
and stock subscriptions will be opened.
Among prominent millmen who have
pledged aid are D. L. Trullinger, of
Union Mills; James Adkins, operating
on Mill Creek; Fred Shafer, of Molalla,
and the Molalla Lumber Company.
Every farmer along the route will
help.
This is the biggest undertaking yet
attempted by local capital. The road
will tap 'rich agricultural and timber
resources lying between Canby and
the Cascade range. Billions of feet, of
the choicest timber in Oregon could
be brought to market. The plat '8
to build along the Molalla River from
Canby, thus utilizing the water grade
all the way. There will be but one
bridge to build, and it is estimated
that the enterprise can be material
ized with the expenditure of not more
than $100,000. The road will tap a
prosperous country, peopled with
farmers amply able to assist in financ
ing the project. The people of the
town of Molalla are ready to lend their
aid. The route is considered by expert
engineers as the only feasible one in
Clackamas County. From Oregon
City it would be almost a physical im
possibility to get over the great bluff
and thet remendous hills lying beyond.
The road can be constructed from Can
by at about one-fifth the expense and
will tap a much richer territory.
The people of Canby are jubilant
over -the report that the great Buck
man tract, owned by Isaiah Buckman,
of Portland, and lying almost in the
corporate limits of the city, is now
being surveyed for the purpose of cut
ting it into small tracts. There are
400 acres of this land in one body and
if devoted to intensive farming it will
support 50 new families.
A large tract owned by Charles
Lucke and lying in the city limits, is
being considered by Easterners, who
propose to cut it into small tracts' and
plant it to English walnuts. Experi
ments here has proved Canby prairie
peculiarly adapted to this delicious
nut and when the trees are in good
bearing the land Is worth from $2,000
to $5,000 per acre. All kinds of fruits
grow abundantly here, and the possi
bilities are attracting people from the
East. Heretofore the typical Clacka
mas County orchard has been a dilapi
dated, moss-grown, . fungus-infected
jungle, that would discourage the av
erage man who did not know the
quality and quantity of commercial
fruit these trees will produce when
cared for in the proper manner. In
the last year or two, under pressure
of State laws, the spray pump has
been brought Into use and there is a
wonderful change.
Owing to the advantageous location
of Canby, the entirep rairie can be
placed under irrigation at a very slight
cost. The Molalla River can be tap
ped at a point southeast of town, and
the water would have a gravity flow
to the illamette River, thus covering
the area of thousands of acres of the
Attests oil in the lower Willamette
Valley. The possibilities for Increased
production are unlimited. Strawber
ries, melons, garden truck and all
kinds of small fruits that find a ready
market in Portland at good prices, pro
duce abundantly without irrigation,
but it is estimated that water will dou
ble the present production.
There has been a wonderful revival
also along the line of religious develop
ment. Hereafter no liquor can be
sold in Canby, and two new churches
are in course of building the Catho
lics and the Scandinavians. The Meth
odists, Christians and Germans are
already represented with well organ
ized churches.
Not in recent years has the outlook
for industrial development been so
bright as it is today. Besides the en
terprises of magnitude, Canby profits
by its great natural advantages as a
residence place. Inquiries from, afar
regarding the feasibility of manufac
turing plants are pouring In. New
citizens are fast taking the places of
the old-timers, many of whom got their
land from the government by merely
putting down a stake and claiming the
soil. For years they have lived In
peace and enjoyed Immunity from in
trusion on the part of the Easterner.
When these Easterners come along
and offer the donation claim taker $100
an acre for his land he jumps at the
offer, not being familiar with true con
ditions. The Easterner considers he
Is driving a bargain, if the land was
a gift to his predecessor.
But,, on the other hand, In almost
every instance the seller has plenty
of money, and is able to get something
else sttill more to his liking.

PLENTY OF MONEY NOW.
Reserve Surplus Is $6,084,050 and Cer
tificates Will Be Retired in East.
For the first time since the begin
ning of the financial stringency in Oc
tober the clearing-house statement in
New York, Saturday, showed that not
only had the heavy bank reserve de
ficit been entirely wiped out, but that
a surplus of $6,084,050 above the 25
per cent legal requirement had been
established.
Bankers declared that no better evi
dence than the clearing-house state
ment could be obtained to show the
rapid restoration of confidence and
the tremendous outpouring of the
hoarded money. The excellent state
ment foreshadows an early retirement
of clearing-house certificates, which
were first issued October 2G of last
year.
With the end of the money stringen
cy there will now be plenty of cash
for the business and industrial world
and many contemplated projects which
were temporarily abandoned during
the money pinch, can now be financed
and proceeded with. The clearing
house banks faced a deficit in reserves
on November 23 of $54,103,600, the
largest in history. Since that time the
deficit has constantly decreased and
with the rapid return of hoarded
money and funds from the interior,
last week's deficit of $11,545,000 has
not only been obliterated, but a sub
stantial surplus of $6,000,000 estab
lished. FIRE ELECTION IN MARCH.
Two Candidates For Chief of Depart
ment Already Mentioned.
Members of the Oregon City volun
tary fire department are already dis
cussing the coming election for chief,
assistant chief and commissioners,
which will be held the first Monday
in March. Clarence Bruner, who is
now assistant chief, is prominently
mentioned for promotion, and Charles
E. Burns, Jr., of Columbia Hook and
Ladder Company, is also a candidate
for the place. Mr. Bruner Is a mem
ber of Hose Company No. 3, on the
hill.
Cataract Temple, No. 42, Pythian Sis
Tuesday night nominated Edward
Rechner as assistant chief, and Hen
ry W. Stratton as commissioner. The
company elected the following officers:
Sam Stow, president; Luther Moore,
vice-president; William B. Howell, sec
retary; Charles Hannaford, treasurer;
E. A. Leighton, foreman; Charles Cro
ner, first assistant foreman; Noble
Charles, second assistant foreman.
COAST ARTILLERY IN MILITIA.
Congress Will Be Asked to Provide for
New Branch of National Guard.
Adjutant-General Flnzer, of Oregon,
who is in Washington, had a confer
ence with Assistant Secretary of War
Oliver, as a result of which General
Oliver agreed to recommend the pas
sage of a bill authorizing the Issuance
by. the War Department of uniforms
and equipment to such companies of
militia in the Coast Artillery as may
hereafter be recruited on the Pacific
Coast
If the Government will bear this
expense, the Adjutant-General will
guarantee that such companies be re
cruited. It is proposed ultimately to
recruit seven companies in Oregon,
though at flrstt here were but tbree.
The War Department will provide for
the Instruction of these companies,
and have annual encampments at coast
fortifications, with probably periodical
practical drills throughout the year.
This will relieve the militia infantry
companies from sea coast duty.
FIGHT SEATTLE EXPOSITION.
Washington Federation of Labor
Places It on Unfair List. -
The closing day of the State Federa
tion of Labor at Tacoma, Saturday,
was marked by the hottest debate and
greatest confusion of the session. The
principal business was the considera
tion of the report of the committee
which was sent to confer with the di
rectors of the A. Y. P. Expositon Fri
day. The committee was unable to
get before the fair board and was of
the opinion the directors had on de
sire to have anything more to do with
the matter and recommended the ex
position be placed on the "unfair" list.
Some of the sober-minded element
In the convention were of the opinion
the Federation was acting too hastily,
but pandemonium broke loose, and
the speakers who succeeded in getting
the floor had hard work to make them
selves heard above the uproar. The
motion declaring the exposition "un
fair" was finally carried with a hurrah
All future action In them atter will De

HOBO ELEMENT
AT OAK GROVE
B. LEE PAGET SAYS HIS OWN
LOCALITY IS ENTITLED TO
PROTECTION.
HE ISSUES A WARNING
Apparent Indifference to Welfare of
Outlying Districts Will Fan Into
Flame the Spark of County
Division.
OAK GROVE, Or., Jan. 13. (Editor
of the Courier.) In your last issue
you have been good enough to publish
a series of resolutions adopted by the
Oak Grove Improvement Association,
protesting against the method in
vogue in the city of Portland of dump
ing their hobo element into this sec
tion of Clackamas County. In your
comment upon these resolutions, yon
suggest that we should have sent this
complaint to Portland, rather than to
our county officials. Allow me to ex
plain that similar resolutions were
forwarded to the Mayor and Chief of
Police of that city. I recollect that
a few- weeks ago, when the citizens
of Oak Grove and some other interest
ed parties met to discuss the practica
bility, or advisability, of adopting a
suggestion which had been made rela
tive to a change in the county line,
making Clackamas River the divid
ing line, the action was severely criti
cised by your paper, and I was shown
to be almost a traitor to this county.
It has not developed- that any particu
lar sentiment exists In favor of such a
change, but allow me to say, in behalf
of myself and a large number of neigh
bors, that we certainly protest against
the comment that you make, when
you state "the county can hardly be
expected to provide police protection
in minor cases to separate localities."
It Is just such apparent indifference
existing at the county seat relative to
the problems which outlying districts
have to face, that will develop a de
mand for such a change as was sug
gested; and if you want to fan Into
a flame a smouldering tendency in
the direction of making Buch a change,
you cannot do better than to echo in
this way this evident indifference
through your columns.
We had Indulged the theory that
any one part of the county was en
titled to the same privileges as any
other, but this expression of yours
has shattered this delusion.

and to get up many times during the
night. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
