Atrout five yea r ao my right car began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost

I umlerwent a treatment for catarrh, for three month, without any ucce, consulted a num

only an opentlioti could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noisei would

I then sow vour advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treat

The Republican primaries will be he'd
1 In every precinct of the county tomor
row. The voting houra for the different
precincts are puhliahed in another col
nmn under the head of Chairman Camp
bell's call for primaries and convention.
Cndldata for the various olfices have
been active during the week, fixing np
slates for delegate to the county con
vention, which will be held in the Arm
ory next Wednesday. While this man
lima cinch and that man has no how,
it is as yet entirely an open queatiou as
to whom many of the micceaxful candi
dates will be. There will probably be l
! contei-t for every oflice with tLe excep
tion of atate aenator, and this will fo to
ieorieC. Iirownell without opposition
For the paat two months he has been
making speeches about the con.ny and
the convention will he not id fur him.
' He was at Clackamas lant Saturday
nirht, and Oawego Wednesday nitflit
I and goes to Canby tomorrow evening.
Hut it is very dilleient with some of the
other offices.
Candidates fr Representative are so
plentiful that it is impossible toenumer
'ate alio! them. Representative J. A.
I Talhert, of Clackamas, and J L. Kruse,
: of StalTord, are both up for renomina-
tion. A. M. Vinyard and H. 6. C
' Phelps, of Canby, are candidates. C
K. Fallard, of Milwaukie, would like to
represent the county in the lower bouse
80 would James Dickey, of Molalla, J
II. Revenue, of Sandy, C. G. Huntley,
of Oregon City, Charles Toole, of Cane-
mah, C. H. Dye, of Oregon City, Hans
1 Paulsen, of George, Orange Barber, of
Killin, and Albeit Croesan, of Wilhoit.
A meng those mentioned for representa
tive is J. W. KooIh, ot Clackamas.
; F. A. Sleight, ot Canny, Weldon M.
Shank, of Oregon City, E. M. Lake, of
Borings, and Justice of the Peace J. W.
McAnulty, of Oregon City, have entered
Into a four cornered fight for the nom
ination of county clerk. No one of them
has a walk over, and it is not likely that
the result can be forecasted before the
convention names a man. All oi them
are confident of success. It is expected
thot the Republicans will be wise enough
to put up a good and capable man, and
a strong man. If this done there should
be no difficulty in electing him.
John Shaver, of Molalla, Chi. f of Po
lice Burns, of Oregon City, and Juhn K.
Morris, of Oregon City are the candidates
for the nomination (or sheriff. All of
them have friends working in their inter
est and at this date it is hard to tell just
who the fortunate man will be.
County Jndue T. K. Ryan is a candi
date to succeed himself, and is very con
fident of renomination. He is opposed
by Mayor Grant B. Dimick, of Oregon
City, who has developed considerable
strength. Friends tf Judge Ryan say
that the judge has the inside track.
Commissioner J. R. Morton is a can
didate to succeed himself, and will come
into the convention with a strong follow
ing. William Brohst, of Wilsonville,
has entered in the fight tor the nomina
tion. He and his friends are doing some
heavy work and many think he will be
the nominee, C- G. Boll.nd, of Oswego,
is a candidate for commissioner and J.
W, Roots, of Clackamas, is prominently
mentioned in connection with the nom
ination. Lined np in the contest for the nom
ination for county recorder are Henry
E. Stevens, of Milwaukie, and E. P.
Deitman, of Clackanms. Both men have
had experience in the office and are in
every way competent. They lmve b"en
in the field fur months and hve been
doing some hard work. ,
Korcoui'ty treHHiirer Enow Cahilt, of
New Era, K. P. Carter and L. O. Wal
dron.of Oregon City, are candidates.
It is probably an even np race between
the three and the result cannot be de
termined until after the vote is counted.
Treasurer Lnelling will probably lie re
nominated by the fusionists and is a
hard man to leat.
James F. Ne! ion, of MuMno, E. C.
Hackett, of Abernetby, and Nicholas
Blair, of Killin, are in the field for the
nomination of assessor. The convention
will nse care in selecting strong man
for this place. The fusioniBts will put
Deputy Sheriff Jack up for the office,
and the man that beats him will have to
hurry.
John W. Meldrom, deputy county
utvyor, la the only candidate for sur
veyor. The present inmmhent, Ernet
Itands, does not want another term, and
I being much talked of for the Republi
can nomination of j'tirit senator.
R. L Holman, Dr. C. H. Seamann and
Dr. C. A. Stuart are the candidates for
the nomination of coroner. All of them
are confident of success. The office is
not a lucrative one, but it carries prestige
and business with it. The present cor
oner, Dr. M. C. Strickland, is Demo
crat and is not a candidate for re-election.
The result of the Multnomah County
primaries was received with quiet satis
faction here. The Simon sentiment is
nil in this county, and Senator Mitchell
has always been regarded as the strong
et man that Oregon ever bad In the
United States senate.

Colonel Robert A. Miller, and O. W.
Easlham went to Molalla Saturday and
addressed the people in the afternoon on
the political situation in the county from
their point of view. The audience was
large, but it is evident that many came
out of curiosity as the enthusiasm was
not great. The Citizens' campaign was
opened with a hurrah, and is now fairly
started. The primaries will be held
April 5 and the convention April 8.
Messrs. Miller and Eaetham will speak
at Maiquam tomorrow afternoon and
Deputy County Clerk O. D. Eby may
accompuny them.
WORKED ZEU01SLY FOR ROADS
FORI! MEN ARC OUT
Scarrity of Wh at ( aun. s F our Mills to
CI se Until Afier Harie-d.
riie Portland Flouring Mills have
closed down, owing to the scarcity of
wheat in the valley and will be idle
until after harvest, resuming oper
ations sometime in August. Forty men
are thrown out of employment. The
wheat market here is in anvtbim? but
good shape. Fifty nine cents net is
being paid for wheat in bulk. This is
the price for red wheat which was hauled
in last fall and has been stored ever
since. While wheat is one cent less.
There is a difference of six cents in the
price paid here and in Portland, caused
by the freight charges and sacks.
Wheat is worth more to growers living
within easy distance of Oregon City, as
the farmers can haul it right to the ware-
iouBe and get more money for it than
the men who have to pay for sacks,
twine, warehouse charges and freight.
There is no truth in the rumor that
the Portland Flouring Mills Company
would close down their Oregon City
mills. This is one of the bet-t mills
owned by the company and it has ad
vantages and facilities that none of the
other mills possess. On one side is the
railroad and on the other the river, to
aay nothing of the cheap water power
supplied by the falls. The oiigin of the
rumor was probably due to the fact that
the company has abandoned the brick
mill. This i) the smaller mill of the
two located here and has a capacity of
300 barrels. The capacity of the main
mill is tiOO barrels. Two reels from the
brick mill have been shipped to Puget
Sound and it is very probable that the
best of the machinery will le sent to
Odessa, Wash., where the company lu
tend to etart a new plant. It may be
stated as a certainty however that the
company will utilize the building (torn
which the machinery is being removed.
ts condition is good and only last
summer a new flume was constructed to
transmit the water power, at a cost of
nearly $5000.
Some wheat is now on hand in the
warehouses and if any quantity of
wheat comes in, short runs may be
made, but this is not expected and very
ittle flour will be manufactured before
the latier part of the summer.
Only three employes have retained
their positions by reason of the close of
he Portland Flouring Mills. R. Clarke
Ganong, as manager and aitent, will stay.
Bookkeeper James Church and Sales
man Forbes Pratt have been released
and the foreman, John McGetchie, will
attend to sales. W. W. Quinn, the
watchman, has been diecharged, and his
place is taken by Head Miller Arthur
Milln, whom thecoinpany wished to re
tain. R. McGetchie and Joseph Beau
lieu, Iwo emploes of the mill, went to
Seattle Monday to loo'; for positions.
Urow ucll at Clackamas.
Stste Senator George C. Brownell, ac
companied by the Marcuhee quartet,
went to Clackamas last Saturday night
and nude a speech to the voters of that
precinct, hearing particularly Uon the
initiative and referendum amendment.
He advised aituinst extravagance in
depu'y hire and raid that the county
debt should be reduced. A large crowd
was rresenl and the speaker received
C;oee attention throughout his address.
Next Sunday night Mr. Brownell will
address the voters of Canby on the polit
ical issues of the Cwiinty.

He la Heart ai.d Koul In the Campalgg
to Bring About Riform Iu the
Affairs of the County.
OkKOOK City, March 18, 1902. (To
The Editor.) Allow me to review in
dispassionate way the somewhat remark
able letter of Commissioner Lewellen,
which appeared in yonr last issue, in
which he mistakes wrath far argument.
Now let me say at the outset that neither
myself or my frienda or anyone acting
with me or for me, ever asked the
county court of this couuly for a fran
chise on the Clackamas river, and I
defy Mi. Lewellen to prove, that I iu
any way, directly or Indirectly, ever
made an improper snggestion to him or
the court in regard to any franchise.
80 far, I and my friends have made two
hard fights to prevent the county ciurt
from granting a franchise to other
parties, and in both instances they were
"grafting'' propositions that were
hatched in Brownell's office. So much
for that.
Now to the isiue made, wherein I
charge extravagance, not criminal, in
the managemf nt of the finances of the
county. It won't do to charge the clerk
withmakinga dumping ground of the
bridge account, where all odds aud t-nd!
are ended. Tne commissioners mtike
the orders, indicating each fund drjan
upon in money, and the record so uuude
is read in open court each month and
signed by them. The clerk carries out
their instructions to the letter. Tlieie
is no attempt to deny the vast totals.
Of course we can make roads, if we take
no thought for the fnture and riifh
blindly 00 until we reach an indebted
ness of a quarter of million but is
tli is good policy?
The entire road fund last year, if every
cent was collected, was $22,387.41. From
January 1, 1901 to January 1, 1902, tne
county court drew warrants 00 this
fund amounting to $22,195.33. In ad
dition, the court expended on roads
$14,381.39 and the record shows they
purposely charged this large sum, and hid
it away in the general fund. There are
road warrants issued at the present time
aud not paid for want of funds, amount
ing to $18,16.9.22. It may be interesting
to know that for the same year, there
was paid to the supervisors, the sum of
$5,613.05 and to their relatives the
further sum of $2,189.93. I can name
some good men among I he supervisors
men w ho have done good, noble work,
but in most instances, as every man of
common sense knows, the rondj are
worked to to carry primaries lor the
"most humble citizen of Clackamas
county."
Here let me digress and tell a joke.
Four years ago when we tried to ouot
the "Boss," "Little Mack Ramtby"
who then was with us and has since
fallen from grace, took great satinfacion
in eaying that there were "two mintr
visors" that wouldn't dance to the tid
dler, and our good friend, John R.
Shaver, was one of them. But God
bless you, on primary day, the whole
shooting match, thirty-six of theru,
were working "tooth and nail" in the
interest of "the most humble citiz-n."
It may be proper here to quote front
Mr. brownell's little explanation in the
Enterprise of March 7th, where he says:
(now don't smile) "I do not have any
