OREGON CITY CQUklfcR, FRIDAY, APRIL 3, 1908 6 It is wonderfully convenient to do kitchen work on a stove that's ready at the instant wanted, and out of the way the moment you're done. Such a stove is the New Perfection Wick Blue Flame Oil Cook -Stove. By using it you avoid the continuous overpowering heat of a coal fire and cook with comfort, even in dog days. The NEW PERFECTION Wick Blue Flame Oil Cook-Stove is so constructed that it cannot add perceptibly to the heat of a room; the flame being directed up a retaining chimney to the stove top where it is needed for cooking. You can A see that a stove sending out heat in but one di rection would be preferable on a hot day to a stove radiating heat in all directions. I he "New Perfection" keeps a kitchen uniformly comfortable. Three sizes, fully warranted. If not with your dealer, write our nearest agency. The convenient, economical and a great light giver.

Campbell, who is a candidate for the-Republican nomination for Representative, earned a fine record In the last session of the legislature, The Portland Telegram after the ses sion ended, published a flattering statement relative to Mr. Campbell's ability and the things he acomplih ed. In an editorial The Telegram said: "For forty days a body of men have been engaged in doing public work at the Legislature. Some of them have done well, some of them not so well while a proportion undoubtedly 1 ave served rather the special Interests than the public. During this long term It is next to impossible for a man to bide from a close and unprejudic ed observer where he really stands On this basis he is entitled to praise or blame, and it is only fair that his constituents, wherever they may be, should be given a line on the men so that when they next appear for public office, they may know precise lv what to expect from them." Under the heading of "Campbell Clean Politician," The Telegram said: "J. U. Campbell was emphatically a "ferninster.' He was the best par liamentarian in the House, a resource ful fighter, usually had to battle with the other leaders and the Speaker be sides, and yet won as many battles as any member. He introduced lew bills and helped kill scores. He fought every big appropriation as a matter of course, whether the appropriation was needed or not, and he caused tne majority in the House more uneasy hours than any other half dozen men. No one ever said that Campbell did not fight fair, no one accused him of pledging his support to a measure and then betraying the trust, as others in the House did, and no one ever did parliamentary battle with him with out knowing that he had been through something. Campbell is a politician, but a clean one. He was the only man on the floor of the House this session who had backbone enough to stand up and be counted when there were 59 members against him, and the only man who dared cut loose from tie-ups and tell the machine to do its worst. He manufactured a rec ord that will make mighty good read ing for his constituents." iff" , ': LINN E. JONES, second term candi date on Republican ticket for Rep resentative.

Mr. Morton is a Western man and is making an ex tended tour of tho Pacille Coast with a view to Investments.

The local association Is affiliated with the grocerymen of the state, and it is proposed to send delegates from all of the Oregon important towns to Boston, with the object of having the national convention meet in Portland next year, and the state can be well advertised by the delegates If the peo ple of the western towns take an Inter est and send literature and pictures relating to the West, it will be of great benefit to Oregon City, Clacka mas County, as well as Portland and the whole state, Mr. Gary will be load ed with facts relatives to this section.
