This City August 31, September 1
The annual convention of the rural
cail carriers of the state will be held
in this city the last day of this month
and the first day of September, and
the plans and program guarantee a
big time.
This association has had a remark
able growth in the past 3 years and
nearly every state in the Union now
has strong organizations, and it is
through such conventions that the
mail boys bring before the people the
objects of their associations and gain
in membership.
The convention here promises to be
well attended. Them erchants are giv
ing it support, and the people gener
ally are doing all they can to help
Uncle Sam's boys,
The exercises, will be held in both
Gladstone park and the Commercial
Club parlors of this city. J. H. Max
well of Eugene, state president, and
W. H. Boyd, secretary, will attend,

JOHN ROHL
The funeral of John Rohl who met
death in the woolen mill Wednesday
was held Friday, Rev. E. A. Smith
officiating.
The exercises were from the resi
dence where a large crowd of friends
and neighbors gathered to pay' their
last respects. There were numerous
floral pieces. The fellow employees
at the mill sent a very beautiful piece
as did the mill company. The body
was intered in Mountain View ceme
tery. John P. P.oehl was born in Germany
March 6, 1855 and died in Oregon
City August fi, 1913, aged 58 years
and five months. Mr. Roehl came to
America when eighteen years of age
and settled in Buffalo, N. Y., where
he lived a number of years, after
ward going to Michigan and Wiscon
sin, from which state he came to Ore
gon City where he has resided for nine
years. His first wife died in Wiscon
sin and on May 13, 1901 he was mar
ried to Mrs. Mary E. Jones. Mr.
Roehl was a Christian man all his
life from boyhood and at the time of
his death was a member of the First
Presbyterian church of this city. An
honest man and e kind neighbor and
devoted husband.
WHY DON'T WE ACT?
Typhoid is Again here. Aren't we Go
ing to Uetend Ourselves?
There are a dozen cases of typhoid
fever in this city.
The various claims are made that
the causes are private wells, milk
supplies and our water source the
foul Willamette.
Be the causes what they may, you
know, we an Know, that where ty-
phoid has ravaged, a pure water sup
ply has instantly cut it down.
The fight for safe water is a nat
ional issue.
New York is spending $125,000,000
on a reservoir that will impound the
streams of half the Catskills and a
tunnel one hundred miles through
solid rock to bring the pure mountain
water to its people. Los Angeles has
gone zou miies up into tne snow-capped
Sierras and tapped the Owen
river for water for a hundred years to
come. San Francisco wants to dam
the Hetch-Hetchy valley in the Yos
emite National Park as a reservoir
from whigh to obtain an unfailing
supply or pure water.
Last winter we had 150 cases in
this city. Portland had similar eti.
demies until it cut off from our sewer
and got pure water.
It would be impossible to frame a
find a drawback more injurious to our
city than our yearly epidemics and
our sticking to the present water sys
tern.
We absolutely must do something?
to stamp out typhoid, and pure water
seems to be the only remedy.
Why don't our people quit talking
and act? The county is full of water
supplies. Why don't we get together,
frame up a policy for relief, and go
alter it ;
To the Summit of Mt. Hood
Rev. W. T. Milliken, D. C. Latour
ette, Kenneth Latourette, George Ed
wards, Joseph Ewing, Ralph Barbur.
Lyle Kellogg, Dallas Armstrong, Her-
schel Saunders have returned to' this
city after enjoying an outing at Gov
ernment Camp and Mt. Hood. The
young men, whom Rev. Milliken and
Mr. Latourette accompanied, are
members of the Baracas Class of the
Baptist Church, and the outing given
the young men was enioved bv all.
The party climbed Mt. Hood, reaching
tne summit in good time. This is the
second trip that Rev. Milliken has
made to the summit of the mountain
and states it was one of the most en
joyable outings he has ever enjoyed.
Although he has traveled over the
Kocky Mountains he savs that the
scenery does not compare to that at
Mt. Hood, and while enjoying his out
ing he secured many photographs as a
remiiiuer iu nis Iirst OUting at Mt.
Hood. He came from Minnesota about
a year ago.
Services were held on Mt. Hood
last Sunday similar to that held by
the Sunday School class of H. E. Cross
several weeks ago when Rev. Milli
ken presided.
.Largely Exaggerated
The ministers of Oreeon Citv are
taking steps to prevent the perform
ance of the Wild West show in that
city next Sunday. Representatives of
the show have engaged counsel and
advertise that they will give their
performance regardless of anv at
tempted interruption. Rev. William
T. Milliken says they will stop not
only the circus, but any. baseball
games, band concerts, moving picture
performances, or other forms of
amusement to which admission is
charged." McMinnvIlle Register.
Rev. Milliken has not said anything
oi tne Kino, tne .Enterprise of this
city said the rest for him anticipat
ed,' as it were. Mr. Milliken went out
to stop the Wild West curcus perform
ance on Sunday and he is Scotch
enough to make it good. And he did.
Scott, the handsome collie owned
by E. K. Quinn in this city, has been
taken to the home of Mrs. Catherine
Jones who resides at Marquam. where
he is enjoying the. country air. The
way that "Scot" happened to be taken
to Marquam was that although he
nad readied the age ot 10 years and
had never been compelled to don a
muzzle as the law now requires until
September, he flatly refused to be
"muzzled". He was the pet of the
family and the manner in which the
animal carried on when tnng to un
dergo the ordeal of having one plac
ed over his head was pitiful and Mrs.
Jones, mother of Mrs. Quinn,kindly
consented to taKe tne dog to her home
until the time comes when Id "Scot"
will be allowed to return to the city
and not be compelled to wear a "base
ball mask over his face. He is hav
ing a "time of his life".
It was Mr. Uuinn who was the
cause of much favorable comment in
many papers in the west as well as
several eastern publications when he
gave his horse a two weeks vacation,
declaring that "Prince" and "Queen"
were entitled to a vacation as well as
himself. The horses each year are
given their vacation and allowed their
iberty in pasture for the two weeks.
Mr. Quinn is one of the well known
and most humane residents in the
city. On his little farm near Moun
tain View Addition his farm animals
receive the best of attention and their
appearance shows ie, even the Poland
Chinas and Chester White swine, of
which he is to make a specialty in
raising.

FAULT IN THE MAN
Manager Freytag Answers the Writer
Who Complains "No Markets"
Oregon City, Ore., Aug. 12, 1913.
To the Editor of the Courier:
In last week's issue of your paper
your correspondent from the Twilight
district gives some advice to the
publicity manager of the Oregon
City Commercial club, and states that
"some growers are plowing up their
strawberry beds, etc." stating "no
market. Tell the Easterner the truth." ,
We will begin with the last, and
tell our adviser he is too late with
his kindly suggestion, for that is just
what is done, underestimates are giv
en rather than over estimates of
crops, conditions, etc: So much for
that. i
As for the farmers plowing up their
strawberry patches, it is within the
memory of man when hop fields were
plowed up, much to the present sorrow
of the hop grower. Also what about
potato prices last year. Why just
pick on strawberries? Our Twilight
correspondent knows the answer.
If one would go through the Twi
light district and see the character of
the farming as it is done in that sec
tion very generally one would under
stand why the howl from Twilight.
Weedy potato fields, corn fields stand
ing in grass unkempt and distressful
places give their owner the grouch
he suffers from.
His fruit when it comes to market
is as- untidely packed and presented
to the buyer as his place is kept.
Ask Mr. Finnegan this side of Twi
light if he is plowing out his straw
berries. Mr. tmnegan could tell a
different story but he puts up his
berries for market in a scrupulously
careful and business-like manner.
Why not raise a berry that will
ship and not depend on local markets
alone. This section would support a
salesman in some fruitless locality
whose salary could be more than paid
bv the waste on but a few of the plac-
es, leaving a handsome profit to the
good farmer. We have the fruit and:
vegetables and there are people who
are crying for them. Our Twilight
friend wants to sit down and let na
ture weed the weeds out of his pota
toes and providence furnish his mar
ket. Also one word as to markets. This
is a question not for Clackamas coun
ty alone to solve. It s up to every
producer of any thing grown or man
ufactured to settle that question.
It has been hoped that the Society
of Equity would furnish relief to their
numbers, devising some plan where
by our immense surplus crops would
find their market.
There is enough wasted in the state
of Oregon to furnish means for the
salary of competent salesmen in dif
ferent points to handle this surplus.
Why not try to do something?
The Oregon farmer should be loyal
to our grand state for no where in
this whle land can one find climate found aainst the riny nf)W flnd at .

with no relief, only getting worse all

Oregon City, Ore., Aug. 8, 1913.
Editor Courier:
Dear Sir: Daniel in the lion's den
is not a "patch" on being editor of
the Oregon City Courier. There is
not the slightest doubt that if some
of our Oregon City "lions" could get
out of the den to a quiet wilderness
where fightihg editors and preachers
did not exist thev would lie down to
i happy dreams for the first time in
months. While traveling through the
eastern part of the state I found the
cry of many citizens was for honest
newspapers, so that the rotten condi
tions of their local governments might
be brought to light. Believe me, the
citizens of this state of Oregon are
demanding good government and will
have it. The days of the tin horn
gambler and greedy, booze-guzzling
politician are soon to pass away. In
fact I believe that honest, enmnntent.
men can be elected anywhere we have ! Ringing Brothers circus in Portland

Good Reason for His Enthusiasm.
Whea n man has suffered for sev-
eral days with colic .diarrhoea or
other form of bowel complaint and Is
then cured sound and well by one or
two doses of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrheoea Remedy, as
is often the case, it is but natural that
he should be enthusiastic in his praise
of the remedy, and especially is this
the case of a severe attack when life
is threatened. Try it when in need
of such a remedy. It never fails. Sold

OREGON CITY
This Lad Will Get There
Neil James, the young son of Mr.
and Mrs. D. James, residing on
Twelfth and John Adams streets, is
a lad who no doubt will make his
way through the world without much
trouble. Besides being engaged in
selling the Saturday Evening Post
each week he "gets onto" several
other little jobs when luck strikes
him. The family were invited to a
birthday dinner party on Saturday
and patiently waited for the arrival
of Neil. He showed up later in the
afternoon bearing a coupon entitling
him to a camera which he had won at
a picnic at Canemah park' when the
engravers of Portland had a picnic.
Neil winnig same, in afoot race.. It
was up to him to go to Portland and
get the camera but the youngster,
knowing the value of money, struck
onto an idea and rode to Portland on
a bakery wagon that is making daily
trips to the city. The driver accom
modated him and allowed him to ride
to Portland, but decided to come back
by car, which only cost him the sum
of 10 cents.
The lad is now plannig to attend
Portland. Neil has never missed a
j circus and never will as long as he
! is able to make nis "spare cash".

I remember how our officials failed to
do their duty and we all remember
th u. c.i.. t..j

ages to come and point the finger of
guiit and neglect at those who have
heen responsible.

In Harmony With Nature
Will G. Richmond, Inglewood, Calif.,
says he will be glad to answer any
inquiries regarding the benefit he had
from using Foley's Honey and Tar
Compound. "It has so preatly bene-
fitted me for bronchial trouble and
cough, and acts so well in harmony
with nature, it is more like a food
than a medicine."
