PAGE 8. OREGON CITY ENTERPRISE. FRIDAY. AUGUST 2. 1904. ARE OF GOOD VALUE. (Continued from page 1.) raiiy, or at any othi-r timo' to any other corporation, tli same us il.'Ullnj with a privaN- liiiUviilunl. due feature of the plan submitted by the railroad company that should not tn con- sldvivd In Justice to property owners In that proposition which asks for the pilv-lli-Ke of laying another Hide track. The establishing of this track which In to be placed Immediately nlonitxltlc the bluff, will necessitate the shirting of the other tracks to the west for a distance of about twenty feet. This will Interfere with the owners of properly In the "blocks west of the depot grounds from reachins their premises front the alley In the rear and adjoining the railroad tracks. If another sidetrack I allowed to lie constructed along the lines pro posed, the alley that now borders the company's tracks will be Infringed upon and robbed of all practical use. The pending negotiations with the rail road company are a matter of supreme Importance to the peopla of Oregon City and should be thoroughly Investigated and considered before final action Is had. Because of a dispute as to the ownership of the land that is now being sought after, the railroad company and the city only recently concluded some protracted litigation that proved costly to the city. The possibility of the repetition of such an experience should be avoided by using good business Judgment and carefully , considering the proposition now' at hand. J ONE WORD IN TIME I Better Than Two Afterwards. Ore gon City People Have a Chance te Profit by Another's Experience. It is a strange thing how people will put away an opportunity until too late; Its only little things that go to make up every day existence; the trouble Is we don't pay sufficient attention to them. Backache is a little thingf Sometimes It comes after a hard day's work, or a slight cold. It will pass off you say: It's only the result of overtaxing my buck. It Isn't the fault of your back but your kidneys. The exertion or straining has Interfered with their delicate mechan ism. Tou call it backache, but It really is kidney ache. If the kidneys are not relieved, chronic disorders set In and this Is where the "little things" should not be passed over. Lee M. Mohr. of Clackamas county. Oregon, writes: "I have used four boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills for kidney and bladder trouble from which I had suf fared for fifty years. It was the first medicine I ever used during that time that gave me any relief. It hns rid me of a severe pain In the bladder which caused me a great deal of suffering and also has regulated the notion of my kid neys." Plenty more proof like this from Ore gon City people.

"RETIRED TOO SOON." Bryan Doesn't Believe that a Square Politician Should Retire too Early In LhV The literary sensation if 'he -var seems to have arrived in the shape of a biH.k written by Forest t'lisscy, the well-known western author, called "Tat tllniiS of a lirttirvd Politician." The literary form, which Is a series of lutein written by old Uovemor tiill Jli-ailley. a reared politician, to his young friend back In the old district, is merely a vehicle for carrying an Im mcniM' fund of political epigrams and wisdom and' a smnvsslon of snappy and peiuied political stories which are run ning over with linnior and realism. The old tlovemor, after serving In the legis lature, in Congress, as Governor and l ulled Stales Senator, has retired to lirokenstraw Ranch. In these stories he "has taken the lid off." and is telling things. That tlie book Is well written was to be expected. Judging from Mr. Crlssey's previous wo.-k. although this book and "The Country Hoy." which apHiud last year, are as far apart In style us the east is from the west. I'lum the title to the last sentence of the nearly StfO pages the reader can get both proiit and entertainment. Physically, the book is a gem. and the 5S full page Illustrations by John T. McCutcheon form no small part of Ha attractiveness. Mr. McCutcheon Is one of the most popular delineators of po litical life In America. Ills graft of char acter is marvelous. In commending this book in a personal letter to the Author. William Jennings Bryan naively' says: "Your politician re tired too soon." The book Is certain to create more than a ripple among politicians and will be received with favor by readers gen erally. It is entirely non-partisan. DeWItt Is the Name. When you go to buy Witch Hum! Salve look for the name DeWITT on every bog. The pure, unadulterated Witch Haiel Is used in making DeWitt's Witch Hasel Salve, which is the best salve In the world for cuts, burns, bruises, bolls, ectema and piles. The popularity of DeWitt's Witch Haiel Salve, due to Its many cures, has caused numerous worthless counterfeits to be placed on the market. The genuine bears the name E. C. DeWItt 4 Co., Chi cago.

The Clackamas county court has Is sued an official call for a convention fot the farmers and producers of Clacka mas county to be held In this city on Thursday, October 6, when details will be completed for the gathering of an exhibit of the resources of the county for the Lewis and Clark Fair. After reciting the facts concerning the offer nude by the Lewis A Clark Commis sion to encourage the making of county exhibits, the call says: "Whereas, The County Court uf Clack amas County, believing that we have a county second to none in the State of Or egon in its resources and products, and that It would be of great benefit to the said Clackamas County and Its people that a full and complete exhibit of said products should be made at said Lewis and CldrkfFalr, and fully realizing that to make such an exhibit will require the hearty co-operation of every citizen of the county; therefore, be it Resolved, That trf Invitation be ex tended to the citizens of every precinct In Clackamas County, and to every Grange, club, society or association In terested in said matter to select dele- gates to meet with the County Court In the Courthouse on Thursday, October , at 11 a. m. , lor the purpose of formu lating plans and measures that will re sult in the gathering and placing on ex hibition at said Lewis & Clark Fair a full and complete exhibit of what we raise, make and have In Clackamas County. There are no restrictions as to the number of delegates that may be select ed In the various precincts or bodies to to attend this meeting and a cordial in vitation is extended by the court to all citizens interested in this work to attend said meeting and by their presence, ad vice and co-operation assist in the pro motion of its object. We would also request all farmers, miners, manufacturers and mechanics to preserve samples of all products that will assist in making a nucleus for a credit able collection." Better Than Gold. "I wis troubled for several years with chronic Indigestion and nervous debility," writes F. J. Green, of Lancaster, N. H. "No remedy helped me until I began us ing Electric Bitters, which did me more good than all the medicines I ever used. They have also kept my wife In excellent health for years. She says Electric Bit ters are Just splendid for female troubles; that thy are a grand tonic and Invlgor ator for weak, run down women. No other medicine can taKe its place In our family." Try them.

In the heart of the Cascade mountains, is Clackamas coun ty's greatest natural wonder, the Austin Hot Hprings. They are situated at the rlver-slde on both banks and In the river bottom. The main springs are on the south side of the river, the largest spring pouring out about 60 gallons to the minute. All the springs combined would yield 1M gallons of hot water per minute. The temperature of the water varies from 150 to ISO degrees Fah. Steam bubbles arc continuously rising through it. The steam from the largest spring on a cool day, rises to the tree tops. The springs were discovered by Beth Austin, a celebrated mountain character, about ten years ago. He built a sub stantial house, slashed about three acres, planted some fruit trees and sowed the land to tlmotfiy, which grows about three feet high there. He also built a bath house, hewed out a bath tub from a log, and dug a pool In the gravel Into which both cool and hot water flows giving a temperature of 100 degrees Fah. The water contains a small quantity of salt, lime and sulphur. InctWullun of pure salt inuy N- found on many of the rocks The water appears In rise fnun a As sure In tile earth, the wells of the springs being vertical. A Part of the springs rise fi-om a quarts Inuring ledge, which lias el. al ly detlm d walls. A ledge has been discovered near the springs which carries four dollars to the ton In gold. Your correspondent discovered a quarts lead from which an ounce was pulier lied and pnnned, showing a don n colors, two of them being Hakes that were er readily si-.ii with the naked ee. The mineral docs not show Itself on the moun tain ridges; hut In the crock beds. Five miles southwest of the springs, on the bunks of the Colowash. coal has W.n found. The bed Is reported to be fourteen Inches thick at the outcrop. It is nil excellent quality of bituminous coal, I believe thitt paying mines will be found here, but It will take capital to de velop them. It Is uot a poor man's country'. . It la not at all improbable that these springs will. In the near future, be one of the most noted resorts In the Pacltlc Northwest. The O. W. P. Co.'s line will tome day be prohtably extended to this natural wonder. There will shortly be three Inducements, I think, for Its ex tension; the tourist travel, the timber, und the shipment of ores from the mines. V. M.
