M. V. (Buzz) Thomas, who lives
near Bull Run, received a handsome
vote for member of the legislature
on the socialist ticket. "Buzz" is
hard hitter and one of his hottest
shots is his "slam" at the P. R. L,
P. Co., which owns 4,800 acres along
the Sandy and at Bull Run, where it
has its dam and powerhouse and
doesnn t pay a cent of tax. Fine ar

Finally people revolted against this
system after they got sense enough
and put these fellows out of busi

some elevated positions and became
robber barons of the middle ages and
robbed travelers bent on journeys of

awhile they shut these fellows off who
were always supported by the power

were suppressed and now we have

a person can be paroled after it is
firmly established that they are
guilty. The cost of prosecution is
paid by the taxpayers and the cul

Hughes and M. H. Herbaugh are
surely deserving of the full limit of
the law. Especially the latter, when
a married man takes advantage of a
child. Wonder what he would do if'
one of his little girls would meet such
a fate. Put such a man behind the
bars. He is no credit to his own
family.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Smith of
Sheridan, Ore., visited their brother
and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Ed Terry, on
Myrtle street last week. Mr. Smith
went to Portland to meet his little
nine-year-old daugher, who had been
living with her grandmother in Ok
lahoma the past four years. The
little miss was four days and nights
making the trip and arrived safely,
all by the kindness and care of the
conductors of the different roads.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear,
There is only one way to cure catarr
hal deafness, and that is by a consti
tutional remedy. Catarrhal Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed condi
tion of the mucous lining of the Eu
stachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness" is the result.
Unless the inflammation can be re
duced, and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever. Many cases of deaf
ness are caused by catarrh, which is
an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces. Hall's Catarrh Cure acts
through the blood on the mucous sur
faces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Hall's Ca
tarrh Cure. Circulars free. All

I knew a man who thought he had un
masked
The folly of existence and its woe.
"Is life worth living?" constantly he
asked,
And always anwsered his own
question, "No!"
He talked of suicide, and often said
That they were right who fought
and ran away;
The only happy people are the dead,
Or those who haven't yet been
born, he'd say.
Practical Economy

Baking powders made from alum or
phosphate may be bought for a trifle less
than Royal Baking Powder, which is made
. from cream of tartar, derived from grapes.
Alum powders are not only cheap, but
they differ greatly in leavening power.
If a cheap baking powder is used for a
fine cake and the cake turns out a failure
there is a waste of costly materials worth
more than a whole can of the cheap bak
ing powder.
Royal Baking Powder produces the
finest food, and its use therefore, results in
an actual saving.

COUNTY IS GROWING
Commissioner Hoff Estimates Great
Increase in Population of State
Clackamas county s population is
estimated at 39,317 by State Labor
Commissioner 0. P. Hoff in a state

Figures compiled recently in connec

missioner Hoff places the population
He kicked about the weather, hot or ! of the entire state, based upon the
- . cold-
Grouched if 'twas dry, and wept
if it was wet.
He hated rich men for their stores of
gold,
And poor men for their poverty
and debt.
Cities he loathed for their eternal din,
The country bored him with its
quietness;
He cursed the persecutor for his sin,
But mocked the martyr in his meek
distress.
"Life's not worth living!" was his
constant cry;
He'd tell his tale to Jones and
Brown and Smith,
Till all his friends began to wonder
why
He didn't die and get it over with.
Then all at once he changed his mind.
(They say
He fell in love.) He took up life
with zest;
"Life's good!" he cried and on that
very day
An automobile knocked him galley-west!
