Suit to Restrain -Hop Pool Fails
The suit to restrain Conrad Krebs and
other large hopgrowers to prevent them
from forming a pool to control the sale
price of hops, filed by A. C. Her, " a hop
buyer, has come to naught. The case
was dismissed in the State Circuit Court
yesterday by Bernstein & Cohen, attor
neys for Her. The suit was instituted on
April 25, when a meeting of a large num
ber of the principal hopgrowers was in
session in Portland. The avowed purpose
of the meeting was to keep up the price
of hops, and Her in his complaint asked
the court to enjoin the combine on the
ground that "It would be unlawful, and
create a restraint of trade to the injury
of himself and other hopbuyers. The in
junction order was not issued for the
reason that the attorneys for Her did not
push the matter.1' It "is common report
that Her was merely a figurehead for
prominent hopdealers and buyers who
did not wish to be known in the case.
Friday's Oregonian.
Before I wrote to you, telling yon how I
Celt, 1 had doctored for over two years steady
and spent lots of money on medicines besides,
but it all failed to help me. My monthly pe
riods had ceased and I suffered much pain,
with fainting spells, headache, backache and
bearing-down pains, and I was so weak I
could hardly keep around. As a last resort
I decided to write yon and try Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound, and-1 am so
thankful that I did, for after following your
instructions, which yon sent me free of all
charge, my monthly periods started ; I am
regular and in perfect health. Had it not
been for you I would be in my grave to-day.
" I sincerely trust that this letter may lead
every suffering woman in the country to
write you for help as I did."
When women are troubled with Ir
regular or painful menstruation, weak
ness, leucorrhoea, displacement or ul
ceration of the womb, that bearing
down feeling, inflammation of the ova
ries, backache, flatulence, general de
bility, indigestion and nervous prostra
tion, they should remember there is
one tried and true remedy. Lydia E,
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once
removes such troubles.
No other female medicine in the world
has received such widespread and un
qualified endorsement. Refuse all sub
stitutes. Mrs. Pinkh am invites all sick women
to write her for advice. She has guided
thousands to health. Address, Lynn.
Adkins Establishes Summer Resort
James Adkins, the Canby sawmill man,
has established and is conducting a most
delightful summer resort on the banks of
Milk Creek about foul-, miles northeast
of Canby. There is a large dance hall
and in connection therewith is a restau
rant capable of accommodating about
500 persons. In starting the enterprise
Mr. Adkins proposed to give the people
of that end of the county a strictly first
class, respectable good home picnic
grounds and in carrying out his plans.
he is meeting witlu splendid success. No
intoxicating liquors are allowed on the
grounds and disorderly persons are de
nied access to the grounds with the re
sult that the very best of order is main
tained. Dancing is participated in Sat
urday night and Sunday afternoon, music
being furnished by Shaw's Orchestra of
this city. Mr. Adkins is planning for a
proper observance of the Fourth of July
at his picnic grounds and has engaged
the Newberg Band for the occasion.
General Summary
. The weather during the past week was
showery and too cool for crops to make
satisfactory advancement. Good rains
fell in all sections of the State, those
occurring in the western portion being
especially copious and timely. The con
dition of the grain crop continues sat
isfactory. There are some complaints
of fall wheat turning yellow, confined
principally to that sown on low land.
Rye, oats and barley are doing nicely,
while spring wheat has stooled well and
is very promising. Hops continue uneven
and the cool weather has retarded growth
considerably. In some portions of Polk
county the second training of the vines
is in progress. Meadow grass, clover and
pastures are growing rapidly. Alfalfa is
backward and a light "first crop" is in
dicated. Gardens, potatoes, com, sugar
beets, onions and beans . are growing
slowly and warm, sunshiny weather is
needed before these crops can resume
their normal growth. Corn is coming up
quite evenly and enough rain has fallen
to insure a good healthy stand. Dairy
and range stock continue in fine condi
tion. Reports relative to the fruit" crop
continue very conflicting. In some local
ities whole orchards seem to be bare
of fruit, while others near by indicate
fairly .good yields. This is also true of
individual trees, some being well set
with fruit, while others nave none.
Prunes, peaches and cherries nave suf
fered most, however, while other fruit
promises fair results.
John J. Keating, painter, of 301 1st
street, Portland, Ore. says: "I had a dull
aching pains in my back for a number of
years. They were often so severe that I
had to quit work for two or three days
at a time. The kidney secretions were
irregular and scalding and I suffered also
from headaches and dizziness. My back
was always lame and sore in the morn
ing. Physicans failed to help me and
no medicine did me any good until I be
gan using Doan's Kidney Pills. They
relieved the urinary difficulties and the
heavy aching in the back disappeared."
Plenty more proof like this from Oregon
City people. Call at Dr. C. G. Huntley's
drug store and ask what his customers
report.

Quality is the first importance in selecting a watch and it requires
expert knowledge of the business to actually know the real value.
There are all sorts of watches on the market and all look somewhat
alike. There are differences, however in constructive workmanship, in
finish and decoration, in wearing quality, time keeping and in price.
That is why you must rely entirely upon the party from whom you
purchase your watch.
Our record for honest, straightforward dealings is what has made us
the largest house in Clackamas County. We are constantly adding
new goods of the latest designs and are showing an unusually attract
ive assortment of handsome patterns in solid gold and filled watches.
We have watches in nickel for boys from $1.00 up; for men from
$5.Q0 up. Ladies and gents gold filled watches from $10.00 up. We
would like to have you come and see our $15.00 and $20.00 watches.
They are beauties.
We do fLie watch repairing and guarantee all work.
