Tire You Blue and Worried?
Nervous P Some of the time really ill P Catch cold easily and frequently suffer
from biliousness or beadaehe ? The reason is that your system does not rid itself
ot the poisons in the blood; just as impossible as it is for the grate of a stove to rid
itself of clinkers. Tbe waste does to us exactly what the clinkers do to the stove;
make the fires burn low until enough clinkers have accumulated and then prevent
its burning at all. Your liver is sluggish you are dull and heavy sleep does not
rest, nor is food appetizing. In this condition illness develops. Doctor Pierce I

OLD'S LAST SHOT
Corrects Some of the Mistatements
of Beatie and the Newspapers
Mr. Farmer and taxpayers, I wish
to say just one thing more through
press in a sort of explanation, I not
being a debater or a public speaker.
I forgot to answer my friend Bob
when he quoted the figures to you
Saturday on the Oregon City bell
tower that I built.
He said that he saw the bill for the
steel and it cost me just $400 f. o. b.
and that I got $1,075. Now I feel
sorry for the poor fellow for that is
all he knows. He didn't know what he
was talking about, but if he wants to
know what I paid for the steel
will tell him it just cost me $550.00
f. o . b. Oregon City and I will show
him the vouchers if he wishes it is
$550.00 and $5.00 freight which I had
to pay on the discount of a wrong
shipment by the steel company.
Another , thing that I wish to say
to you farmers is: Isn't that Oregon
City bunch a bunch of hard loosers
Even to the paper reporters, or per
haps it is the paper owners or stock
holders. Note which was said in the
Morning Enterprise of the 6th, of
last Sunday, where it said that E. D,
Olds bid on several bridges and had
received no contract, and also of
the reports of the Evening Telegram
of the 7th, the reports coming in from
the same source, where it says that
Olds tried to get contracts, and other
sarcastic, slurring remarks.
Now, Mr. Farmers, you know that
E. D. Olds used to get contracts in
Clackamas County when we had the
competitive system, but since Bob
has been in he hasn't had a chance to
compete for any job outside of one
and that was across the Abernethy,
and he, Olds, was right there and put
in his bid like a good fellow.
Goodbye Robert, I am done unless I
go on the campaign.
E. D. OLDS.
ABSURD POSITION
Enterprise Contention of Friend to
Investigate Friend is Laughable
Editor Courier:
Please enlighten the writer as to
just what strings the much talked of
county court has on the Morning En
terprise. It is evident that for some
reason or another that publication is
vigorously opposed to the investiga-
tion which three or four hundred sub
stantial citizens of the county have
demanded, and at every step has at
tempted to thwart the actions of the
interested taxpayers. To cap the
climax, a recent editorial in its col
umns, suggests that "the court should
have named one party" to aid in this
investigation, the farmers one and
the third should be a disinterested
party.
Of all supreme nerve! THE COURT
to select one party. Can you imagine
how soon the whitewash would be
applied, if such proceedure were per
mitted. Is it customary to name on
any investigating committee, adher
ents of the parties about whom the
stigma is attached? There could be
but one result of following out the
brilliant suggestion offered by the
county court's mouthpiece there
would be no investigation.
The committee chosen, it is said,
are strongly oposcd to the court. Is
that any reason why they should not
be allowed to investigate the business
methods of our officials which it
is no use to deny have not been open
and above board. The man who ap
pointed this committee, in tho opinion
of the writer, acted wisely; a "disin
terested' committee, as the title
would imply, should not be permitted
to act, for tho very reason that it
matters not a whit to them whether
or not the charges against the court
are proven. These "disinterested" com
mittees, as a rule, either go to sleep
on tho job, or else want to "hush up"
the affair, or exonerate the parties
investigated out of sympathetic mo
tives. The effusion in the morning paper
was too plainly a whine for modera
tion in the coming investigation; in
effect it amounted to this: "Don't let
these men investigate the court; they
are unlriemlly to Judge Beatie and
his assistants; this antagonism will
make them go to the bottom of the
trouble; therefore, in tho interest of
the judge, do not let them act."
Why this attitude, Mr. Editor? I
was at the meeting last Saturday as
a disinterested newcomer in your sec
tion. 1 liuve yet to meet tho man who
will say that tho facts brought out at
that meeting will not warrant an in
vestigation. The Enterprise is the one
exception.
Sincerely yours,
"DISINTERESTED."
Straight at It.
There is no use of our "beating
around the bush." We might as well
out with it first as last. We want you
to try Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
the next time you have a cough or
cold. There is no reason so far as we
can see why you should not do So.
This preparation by its remarkable
cures has gained a world wide reputa
tion, and people everywhere speak of
it in the highest terms of praise. It is

MR. JONES' STAND
Men of Sand Wanted, Who are Above
Factional Fear
Editor Courier:
I know it is the taxpayers' business
to interest themselves as to where
our money is spent. k
Mr. Taxpayer, if you had a man
hired to rnn your business for which
you were to pay him a reasonable sal
ary, would you expect him to work
to the advantage of you interests ? If
you should find that he is working to
his interest would you depend on your
neighbor to pay him off and get some
one else, or just say nothing and let
things go on as they are ?
Now let every taxpayer get to work
and keep the ball rolling while it
started. Don't let that hard talk bluff
you out, that you heard at the mass
meeting Saturday, because anyone is
going to defend himself whether he is
in the right or the wrong.
Now taxpayers, do not let your
selves forget things so easy.. If you
stop to think you will remember that
in the year of 1910 how the county
court turned down so many petitions
against the will of the people.
I glory in George Oglesby's sand.
He is right. There is only one thing
that will hinder us from having a new
County Court that is there are so
many voters that would not sign a re
call petition for fear they would lose
some little county job.
It is time for the people to drop po
litical affairs and work for our own
interest and to know our county aff-
airs are handled. You can depend on
for one.

COUNCIL TRANSACTIONS.
Brief Outline of the Matters Taken
Up at Wednesday Session.
A resident suggests to the Courier
that as the city council has limited
talk to one five-minute session, that
an appropriation be now made for
two pair of boxing gloves.
tor three hours tne council gave
and took Wednesday night, with Hoi
man and Tooze as the big attraction,
The special liquor license committee
wanted to transfer a saloon license
when Councilman Beard asked for
further time. Holman objected to this
as an implication that the council
doubted the committee's word, and
if so asked the committee to be dis
charged, and there was a lively tilt.
Thomas F. Ryan objected to what
he considered an unjust assessment
for street improvements.
The matter of a hitching rack on
Fifth street was discussed, favored
and opposed by several persons.
Council ordered that the North
Main street assessments be set for
hearing April 23, on which date all
objections and remonstrances will be
considered.
Changes in the grade at Center
street, between Ninth and Tenth
streets, was denied.
An ordinance for $6,000 to purchase
rock crusher from Harry Jones was
given first reading. Mr. Tooze wanted
to look into the matter further and
see if price was right. Holman and
Myers thought this matter should be
pushed along.
The matter of improving Thirteenth
street brought out hot arguments, but
the result was a motion to enter into
a contract for completion of the same
within 90 days.
Fourth street was ordered improv
ed.
Rules were amended that argu
ments be confined to five minute talks
and no member be allowed to speak
but twice.
An ordinance regulating stables
and barns was given first reading.
Expenditure of $1,000 from the
general fund for the purpose of inves
tigating sources of municipal water
suply at Mount Pleasant and Canby,
was approved, an ordinance to this ef
fect being passed.
Mr. Albright asked that the several
lumber yards be given equal patron
age on wood paving.
D'. M. Klemsen, through an attor
ney, applied for a special permit to
sell his stock of wines and liquors,
following the revocation of his license
at a previous session. He asked un
til July 1 to dispose of his goods, and
stated that only original sealed pack
aged would be sold. After consider
able discussion the matter was placed
in the hands of the city attorney and
a special committee. The committee
will report Friday.

One of the most brilliant social af

the affair, especially to the committee
on arrangements, composed of J. H
Walker, chairman Don E. Meldrum,
Charles C. Spencer, who spared no
pains to see that their guests were en
tertained in a royal manner. Those
who did not care to dance enjoyed
cards in the balcony, which was beau
tifully decorated in evergreens and
flags, while the hall where dancing
was participated in by the merry
dancers, was never more attractive,
with its artistic decorations of Oregon
grape, flags, evergreens and fes
toons of white and blue, these two lat

Arranged about the room were invit
ing coiy corners, all of these being
occupied during the evening. The com

during the evening by Carnott Spenc
er and Mr. Eby.
The latest selections were render
ed by local talent under the direction
of Prof. Flechtner, a well known mus
ician of this city, and the danceers
were enthusiastic in their encores,
and many times the orchestra were
forced to respond to encores.
One of the attractive features of
this affair were the handsome gowns
worn by the women. Among the at
tractive gowns that were noticable
were the following: Mrs, John J. Tob-
in, pink charmeuse en-tram embell

County, Kentucky, January 19 ,1835,
and was the second son of Vachel and
Polly Anne Dillman. He resided in
Kentucky until he arrived at the age
of 19 years, when he accompanied his
father to Clay County, 111., his mother
having died a short time before in
Kentucky. On January 18, 1854, Mr.
Dillman married Martha Anne Erwin,
and to this union were born four chil-
aren, Aiirea, wno aiea April o, 1804,

On December 10, 1867, Mr. Dillman
married Miss Nancy Jane Ford, this
marriage taking place in Henry Coun
ty, Kentucky, where Mr. Dillman was
engaged in farming, and afterwards
moved to the state of Illinois, where
he remained for two years. From Illi
nois he moved to California, residing
most of the time at Stockton, moving
to that place 38 years ago. Eighteen
years ago he brought his family to
Oregon City, where he has since re
sided. By a strange coincidence the
figure eight has played a prominent
part in Mr. Dillman's life as well as
the month of April. Thirty years ago
this April he moved to California,
and 18 years ago in April he moved to
Oregon City and it was November 8
that he was stricken and passed away
April 8th.

View cemetery the impressive burial
service of the I. O. O. F. Lodge will

requested that in case of death he
wished his funeral services to be con

the dead that die in the Lord." As
Rev. Keeler died last September the
latter request will be carried out by
Rev. Chapman, who will take that

Colton Local met April 5, 1913.
Twelve members were present out of
a total of 24. After reading the min
utes of last meeting, the following
business was transacted:
The local decided to market egs,
chickens, veal and pork, to the Hazel
wood creamery of Portland. We then
decided to investigate the feed market
to see if we could get better prices In
buying mill feed. The Colton local is
beginning to see that doing some bus

become more independent. Lets all get
in together, boys. Dig in.
