ardless of What It. Costs Us We
ee F&itfo
With Our Customers
We have rather a peculiar idea about running a retail store. We believe that the
merchant who looks out for his customers' interests will never have to worry about
his own interests. Business success, like happiness, comes to the average man
directly. The fellow who goes about seeking happiness is the most unfortunate in
dividual imaginable; the man who does his duty from day to day, and tries to make
others contented finds true happiness. And so it is in business. We believe and
always have believed that by serving your interests we shall in the end serve-our
own best interests.
GOODS MUST BE AS REPRESENTED
Every article we sell is exactly as we represent it to be.
There is no deviation from this rule. A child can buy
herewith the same assuiance that a jewelry expert
would have of gettieg full value for his money. If we
tell you a locket is solid gold, you may depend upon it
that it IS solid gold; if we sell you a watch, you can
depend upon its quality, if your watch deeds regulat
ing and nothing more yon will never be charged for, a
repair bill..
Jewelry Cleaned, Watches Regulated Free
If you have gems or jewels, that need cleaning and
polishing, bring them in and we will be glad to do the
work free. If your watch is irregular in its liise-keep-ing
habits, we shall be glad to regulate it and no fee
will be asked.
BARCAINS ARE BARGAINS HERE !
Whenever you see an article advertized by this store as
a bargain, it is a bargain. Only goods sold at reduced
prices are adveraized as bargains. Please remember
that. '
When you see an announcement of a Special Sale at
this store, it means we have something special to sell
either an ORDINARY article at a REDUCED price or
an EXTRA QUALITY at the price of an ORDINARY.
We Want Visiters as Well as Customers
We now have a most complete ai.d interesting display
of JEWELRY, WATCHES, CHINA, CUT GLASS, etc.
Come in and see these beautiful creitions. Don't feel
oligated to wait until you are rea y to buy. Come
now, tomorrow or next -day. And bring your friends
along we like to have visitors.

. A presidential election does not
scare Oregon. Business and
building moves on just the same
and one would never think that
the greatest campaign in the his
tory of this nation was on. But
Hie scare day has gone by. The
people will not take any stock ia
the ruin stories. It will take more
than politics and the change of
an administration to keep Oregon
from booming for the next ten
years.
Fred Clarke had a thirst, and
he slipped into a Main street sa
loon through a rear window to

drink he felt more sociable and

Robert Phalen into his wet goods
emporium. These men took on too
much of a load and chief Shaw
gathered them in. Then they
squealed on Clark, which led to
his arrest. Kiser was given 30
days in jail and a fine of $5, by
Recorder Stipp; Phalen drew 20
days and a $5 fine and Clark was
held for the grand jury.
"What is a chicken yard doing

er who was watching the work
men on the Carnegie library

nor's partner, who moved to this

for a tennis court.
At, the coming city election you
are going to have another chance
to vote on the proposition of a
cily elevator for the residence
section. Just as sure as that you
are a foot high this is the move
to make. With a free elevator
the heights section as a residence
location would be without an ob
stacle or drawback. It is of much
more an investment than the im
proving of a street that would
cost many times as much. And
then, too, you want to ever bear
in mind the improvements that
are about duo for the west side,
and let this have a lot of consid
eration. If we get at it, work for
it, explain it, it will go and go
dead easy. If we fold our hands,
it will go where it did before.
-Albert Englo of Molalla, was in
the city Wednesday.
Ripe strawberries are in the

-Moflit & Parker of the Oregon
Construction Co., have J. Q.
Adams, Jackson and Sixteenth
streets practically graded and will
have the rock on in about five
weeks. The big quary that they
opened with the giant blast a few
weeks ago is yielding some splen
did road material. It has been
tested by the state agricultural
college and by Prof. Bongham,
the road chemist, and pronounced
as first class. This mountain of
rock will supply the big crusher
for several years to come, and
the company is now runing night
and day shifts to catch up with
the street work. Oregon City Is
spending a lot of money on im
proved streets, but every dollar
more than comes back in the way
of additional value to property.

Springwater, Ore. Sept. 29.
Mr. M,. J. Brown:
I saw in the last weeks Courier
a call for contributions to the
Wilson campaign funds andl will
say I am already contributing
more to the campaign funds of
Wilson, Taft an Tdeddie than I
feel able to.
I guess with Tammany and the
rest of his followers backing
Wilson he will not suffer for
lack of funds. In the first place
if ho had anything to offer the
working class, why didn't he tell
us so, when the Appeal offered
him thoir whole front page free?
And will you please tell me why
they did not redeem thoir past
pledges instead of making a lot
of new ones they never intend to
fulfill. It doesn't make any dif
ference to me which of tho three
T. IX., Taft, or Wilson is elected.
They all dance for the same
music, and are all tarred with the
same slick.
Mrs. Dora Millard.

FOR FLETCHER'S
CASTORI A
TAKE A DOLLAR CHANCE
Look at It as an Investment and
Help the Party.
Five weeks from next Tuesday
is election.
Every power that money can
bring into play is getting behind
tho Republican , nominees for
president.
Woodrow Wilson is depending
on tho single dollars of the thou
sands of plain people to pay the
expenses of his campaign.
The other candidates are do
ponding on the trusts.
Don't you think you can take
a dollar chance on a candidate
for president who promises to
pry loose the trusts that are forc
ing you to pay many dollars every
month you live?
A dollar for the Wilson cam
paign goes where it will help
Wilson's chances. Not a cent of
it will be used in Clackamas Co.,
or Oregon. It goes to the Natino
al committee. .
Look at it first as an invest
ment; that if Wilson wins you
will get it back with mighty good
interest. Then look at it from the
standpoint of a loyal Democrat.
The time is short for this
money to be effective. Send in
your dollars and line up with tho
men below who are helping:
