Twfnty-two of the thirty-seven mem brrs of the general com in It lee appointed to arrange fur an exhibit of Clackamas county products at the Ix-wla ft Clark Kulr attended a meeting of that com mittee held at the court house last Hat urduy. An executive committee of nine m'tnlers was named to have general charge of the exhlhlt, in the gathering and arranging of which It Is to have the help of the members of the general com mittee. The executive committee la to hold a meeting next Monday, October ;(, when organization will be had and rules of proceedure determined upon. 'ounty Judge Kyuti arid the members of the county court were In atendance at the meeting, Ihe former acting as chairman of the meeting. E. E. IJrodle was upiMilnted aeeretury. After a general dlwuMlon of the proposed exhibit, a motion w.ia successful providing for a nominating committee to conaist of five members, this committee to name the executive committee. Those appointed on the nomlnutliig committee were: Judge Ryan, Oregon City, No. 1; H. E. Cross, Abernathy; Henry Cans, Oswego; J. H. Vaughan, t'nlon; Mrs. Mary 8 HoKard, Mullno. This committee named the executive committee, which was ratified by the general committee. The executive committee consists of: Henry Cans, Oswego; J. T. Apperson. Aber nathy; W. B. Stafford. Oreogn City, No. S; Mrs. Mary 8. Howard, Mullno; Dr. J. W, Thomas. Molalla; Ueorge Iixelle, New Era; Mrs. oeorge A. Harding. Ore. gon City, No. 2: J. V. Jtools, Holing; and Harvey C. Starkweather. Mtlwaukie. Judge Ityan Informed the committee that he l.ad Secured floor space 2&X40 feet In the agricultural building, this be ing the greatest amount of space allotted any other county. Clackamas county can show a great variety of products. Kor Instunce, In addition to all the prod ucts of the farm and orchard, this coun ty Is perhaps toe only county in the state that produces iron, wool and aMT. The executive committee Is a good one and Is capable of preparing an exhibit of such an extent and worth as an ad vertisement to the county that the peo ple of the county will have every" reason to take pride in claiming a residence in Clackamas. WILL HAVE SCHOOL EXHIBIT. Clsckamas County Educators Decide to Have Display at 1905 Fair. At a m't'ting of the Clackamas county teachers held at the offlce of Superin tendent Zinxer laxt Saturday afternoon, it was decided to make an exhibit of Ihe work of the schools of the county at the I-wlH A Clark Fair. Prof. H. 8. Lyman, of Astoria. siiHrlntendent tit Ihe educational department of the 195 Fair, was present and Informed the teachers that If the educational exhibit, from this comity Is made a part of the State's educational exhibit, then the Fair Commission will meet the cost of the paper and the binding incident to the display. Details of the exhibit were dis cussed but the detailed arrangements fur collecting and arranKhiK the same will 1m- arranged for a a ubesiient meeting. SuiH-rlnteiulent Zlnser has received nn Invitation to Ki to St. lxiuis and assume charge of Oregon's educational exhibit for the concluding month of the World's Fair. The Invitation to take charge of the exhibit also Includes Its packing and shipment Jo Oregon. Mr. Zlnser has the Invitation tinder consideration and may decide to accept It for the value the experience would ho to him In collecting and arranging an exhibit from this county for the 1W5 Fair. LET THE MAJORITY BE LARGE. Every Republican Should See That En tire Precinct Vote Is Polled. In the words of the street, there will lie "nothing to It" In the November election In Oregon hut the vote-connt-Ing to ascertain the slxe of the majority for Honsevelt and Fairbanks. What Is true of the Stale Is equally true of Clackamas county In which there are many Democrats who will vote for the Itepubllcnn standard hearers and the de finitely defined policies for which they stand. Every loyal Republican in every pre cinct In the county should not only go to the polls himself on November Sth. hut he should see that every Republi can vote in his precinct Is cast as well. that the majority may be decisive and without precedent. Precinct pride should suggest the getting out o fa full vote. Commenting along this line the New berg Graphic says: "For the Indifferent voter who thinks Oregon will go Republican anyway, nnd for the voter who is appealed to by other than purely pariotic sentiments, there is plenty of food for reflection between now and November Sth. A thirty thou sand Republican majority would mean for Oregon more river and harbor Im provements, more internal Improvements In general, more favorable legislation, than would an Indifferent majority. The President has been a gifat friend to Oregon In furthering and guaranteeing the Interests of the Lewis ft Clark ex position. Will Oregon show her gratl tudp in a substantial manner? If so, she will stand In direct line for more favors In the future." WHAT MIGHT TAKE PLACE. Friendly Relations Between O. W. P. and S. P. Companies Provokes Comment. The Interest thul Is being manifested by officials of the Oregon Water Power ft Railway Company for the passage of the perpetual franchise ordinance In fa vor of the Southern Pacific Company by the Oregon City council la considered to be not without algnlflcance to some Oregon City people who discuss their theories as to the real motive of the un usually friendly relations existing be tween the two corporations. While the Southern Pacific franchise ordinance has been under consideration by the members of the council It Is claimed by these Inquisitive Individuals that there has not been held a meeting at which some prominent official of the O. W. P. Company has not been In at tendance In the Interest of the ordi nance. Another significant fact. It Is claimed, is that two of the members of the council who are regularly employed by the street railway company are un qualifiedly for a perpetual franchise. These friendly relations have provoked some comment as to the motives. There is a belief among some citizens that In event of the passage of the ordinance the street railway company may acquire Ihe right to extend a track through the Third street underground crossing and thence to Canemah Park, via the South End road. This is the only feasible route for reaching the company's pleas ure resort and besides would afford a splendid outlet to the Interior of the county which the street car managers have long been desirous of acquiring. ! establishing a side-track along side the tracks of the Southern pacific Company, it Is also reasoned that there would be an abundance of room within the limits of the proposed right of way for the convenient Interchange of freight between the two companies. It Is fur ther claimed that there are grounds for this theory In the fact that the railroad company Insists on having Its proposed additional sidetracks extend beyond the point of the Intersection of Third street with the South End road. The conclusions above outlined are M-rhui more theoretical than practi cal. A hurried consideration of the prop osition suggested in the foregoing, seems to show that the theory Is not at all feasible. The grade over the South End road is too great for the successful transportation of cars and. besides, the width of the road is not sufficient to construct a railway track and at the same time reserve any space for a road way. WOULD PAY FOR THE BASKET. An lowan. Formerly of Oregon City, Dis covers Ho Has a Conscience. One's conscience is a troublesome thing. Evidence of Its disturbing qual ities are revealed every day. For In stance, the Enterprise this week re ceived a letter from M. A. Klrby. of Mount Ayr, Iowa, who after a lapse of eight years, is desirous of reimbursing the owner for the value of a basket that he obtained from a tramp In this city. In his letter KJrl.y relates that while living at Oregon City eight years ago, he made an exchange with a trump by which he received a good basket in re turn for some food. He afterwards leame1 that the basket had been stolen from (iladstone Park and states that he made an effort to locate the owner nnd have the basket returned, but In this he was unsuccessful. Since going to Iowa. Kirby declares his conscience has been troubling him on the grounds that he did not search as diligently as he should have done In ascertaining the owner. He now asks that the owner of the basket furnish him with a discriptlon of the missing article, which has been worn nut and discarded, and he will remit the full value of the basket to the great re lief of a much troubled conscience. CLACKAMAS AGAINST THE WORLD. Young Heifer Raises a Pig for Which Great Attachment Is Formed. J. H. Wnlfer. a leading farmer of Needy. Clackamas county, reports an un usual instance of animal attachment at Ids farm. Early In Ihe Summer one of a litter of young pigs began sucking a young Jersey heifer that was then less than a year old. The practice was continued hy the iMiiker until It finally abandoned its mother and received Its nourishment entirely from the heifer which yielded a Mow of milk. Mr. Wolfer says that the pig began Its relations with the heifer while the animals were allowed the free dom of the iKirnyard. the remarkable search for nourishment being made when the heifer was lying on the ground. The porker his now attained such a growth that '. is enabled to receive its food while standing as would a calf. Another surprising result is that the young pig outweighs by twenty pounds any other one of the litter. So unusual s the strange attachment that the heifer bellows and otherwise creates a disturb ance If It is not allowed to feed the pig at regular Intervals. In order to pre serve its value as a milch cow, Mr. Wolfer regularly milks the heifer when the product Is not taken by the pig. MAY HAVE PUBLIC BUILDING.., Government Officials at Washington In quire as to City's Needs. Postmaster Randall a few days ago received from the office of the govern ment's stiervising architect at Wash ington. D. C. a letter Inquiring as to the amount of space that Is now occu pied by the Post Offlce and the Land Office nnd asking the amount of rent that is being paid for the quarters so occupied. This Is considered locally to be an In dication that the government authori ties at Washington are investigating the nctual needs of a government building at this iJ.ice, Congressman Hermann having Introduced a bill In Congress providing for a sufficient appropriation for such a building. Dining IIT- campaign befi-re the June lection It will he remembered that Con gressman Hermann pledgtd his Oregon City audience that In event of his elec tion, he would work with the other mem lers of the Oreogn delegation and do his very best to secure the passage of his bill providing for a pubfce building at this place. DID NOT TAKE ITALL XPERT COMPLETES EXAMINATION OF COUNTY RECORDS. A Fsw Clerical Errors are Discovered but No Evidence Found of 14, 000 "Discrepancy." According to the report that has been filed with the county court by Mr. Lee. of Portland, who recently "experted" the books of the present county officials, the courthouse Is still In Clackamas county and Ihe fixtures therein remain undis turbed, having not been annexed by the present Incumbents. There Is also noth ing In the report confirmatory of the charge so Industriously circulated last June that a discrepancy of $1 1.000 or anf other amount exists In any of the de partments at the court house. Several clerical errors were found by Mr. Iee and reported to the county court. The records In the different de partments were found to be kept In a satisfactory manner although the sys tem employed In some of the offices was found to be cumbersome and con ducive to the making of mistakes such as those evported. Recommendations were made to the court In connection with the report and all will be taken up and considered at the regular meeting of the court In November. Fair at Barlow. . The Twentieth Century Orange of Barlow, will hold a fair today and Sat urday. Oct. 21 and 2:. The new Barlow Hotel has been secured for the occasion, and here the exhibits will be placed, consisting of agricultural products, hand iwork of all kinds, curios and relic from early days. etc. The object is to draw the people of the neighborhood together for a social time and members of the Barlow Grange are noted for their hospitality. This evening a literary program will be given and the festivities will close Saturday evening with a dance In Columbia Hall. No one will ever regret having visited Barlow during the Fair. HOW TO PRESERVE FRUIT JUICES. Result of Experiment Mads at Corvallia Agricultural College. Experiments by Prof. Pemot at the college have evolved a method by which cider and kindred beverages may be kept sweet for a period of years. Prune Juice In a sweet state, put up three years ago was opened the other day and was found to Is? In as perfect a state of preserva tion as the day It went Into the bottle. Cider, kept for a less period, but long enough to determine that It can be pre served tif a man's life time If desired. " and was likewise found to be sweet and as pleasant to the taste as the day It was put up. The method prevents any ferment whatever, and haves the apple Juice or prune Juice In exactly the same state as when It came out of the fruit. For carrying out the preservative pro cess, bottles or glass vessels capable of being hermetically sealed, are required, and leyond this there is ho expense ex cept the labor, and accordingly the pro cess Is within the reach of all who desire. With cider apples rotting under the trees or selling at J cents per bushel, the process ojens a way for converting that which Is now a waste Into a means of much profit. An Industry' fr the manufacture and preservation of sweet cider for the market by the plan, would undoubtedly develop Into a business of large proortions. California has been enriched from the sale of the Juice of her grains, and Oregon by sale of the Juice of her apples as sweet cider could put by a handsome profit annually. Prof. Pernot's method of preservation of cider is as follows: "As elder comes from the press, it is filtered through asbestos, or any other material which will remove all the pum ace that is held in suspension, so that after bottling there will lie no sediment. "After filtering, the cider is Immedi ately placed in clean bottles, and corks placed loosely on top. the bottles are then put in a steam chest and steam turned on until the contents of the bot tles register a temperature of lti degrees This heat is mainttained for fifteen min utes, the steam is then turned off and allowed to cool down without opening the door. Twenty-four hours after wards they are again steamed, and twenty-four hours after that the opera tion is repeated for the last time; while the bottles are still hot. they are tightly corked, and after cooling In the steam chest the corks are dipped In hot canning wax which finishes the sealing. "Cider and other fruit Juices may be preserved in the same way and used to an advantage in the preparation of many delicacies for the table as well as being used as a beverage." Corvallls Times. "Did Not Care If It Did Dio." The other evening (lining a drenching rain a woman, carrying a young babe In her arms, was observed standing on the depot platform without even the meagre protection of an umbrella. The child was wrapped In a thin garment and was noticably suffering from exposure. It's clothing being saturated with the rain A woman witness suggested to the In different mother that the child be taken within the waiting room where there was a lire, but she made the unusual response: "I do not care, It Is going to die anvwav." The Interested witnea volunteered and received the child which was taken into the waiting room and made comfortable until the arrival of the train. The name of the unnatural mother wus not learned. It's a mistake to Imagine that Itching piles can't be cured: a mistake to suf fer a day longer than you can help. Doan's Ointment brings instant relief and a permanent cure.
