Many Want Aitointmknt County court mot luHt Wudnemlay, and as usual at the icgulur January term, the appoint ment of mad BUtHirvlmirs and Judges and clerks of election for the ensuing year was bnyun. Tho county Iihs many roud diHtricts and se.ve.riil men In each who would like to be supervisor, consequently a large number of men from all parts ot the county have been in town for the past two or three days, each one looking out for his own or the chances for some friend to be appointed. Under the pres ent law the county makes those appoint ments when they should in reality lie made by the people of the various dis tricts, and then if the appointee waa not satisfactory thore would be no one to blame except those persona In the re spective districts. In fact we believe every public servant should be elected by the people whom he is to serve in stead of being appointed by a court or tribunal which is not in a poltlon to understand the situation In each locality, besides if road supervisors were directly amunahlu to the people In their renpuu tlvu road districts the service would no doubt In most cases be much Improved, and if elected by the people and tha service was not good It would bo In the hands of those same people to make a change the next election. As It Is now, the pimple have very little say In the matter, The policy of appointing public servants generally Is wrong and unsatis factory and tho law permitting the same ought to be changod.

The bladder waa created for one pur pone, namely, a receptacle for the urine, and as such it is not liable to any form of diaease except by one of two ways.

The Marketing Point As the Great Manufacturing Center of the Pacific Coast OREGON CITY This is proven every day by the number of farmers, who are to be seen on its streets selling their produce, who, until just the last few years, sought the markets of other towns. The system of macadamized roads that is being built into all parts of Clack amas county, will enable all the people of this county to share in the profitable mar ket that Oregon City affords. If, as it is sure to do, the demands of Oregon City in crease in the next five years as it has in the past five years, this city will rank next to Portland as a market place for THE PRODUCE -of the Farmer SUPPLIES 3rd and Oak Sts.
