PURE SUPPLY OF WATER.
It is certainly a credit to the enter
prise of the people of Oregon City,
that the Chamber of Commerce of
Sacramento, California's Capital City,
should send a delegation' of prominent
citizens to this city to investigate and
report on the filtration plant through
which the city's excellen supply of
water is furnished. Samples of water
taken from hydrants from throughout
the city averaged 99.6 per cent pure in
a number of analyses that have been
made by Prof. Sweetzer, state biolo
gist. Oregon City is to be complimented
on its excellent supply of water. The
water works is the property of the
city and under the management of a
board of commissioners is being con
ducted on a good business basis, the
Indebtedness of the plant having been
reduced to the extent of $10,000 dur
ing the last two years, while the ser
vice is being gradually extended and
improved upon. With pure water and
such a delightful and unvarying cli
mate as this section possesses, Ore
gon City offers exceptional induce
ments to the homeseeker. i

ED EXPLOSIVES.
a majority of all the Republican Votes
cast at the primary polls ie will have
a moral, though of course not .a legal
claim to be given the election.
Senators represent the whole state,
not any fraction of it. When the sen
atorial provision was placed in the new
primary law the common understand
ine was that it would be the vote of
'the whole state that would have val
idity as an expression of the sentiment
of the voters. There was no thought
that the vote in each general assem
bly district would be considered sep
arately and used as a sort of informal
instruction to the members of the
assembly from, that district. The ma
jority in the whole state was to fur
nish instructions to all the party's
members of the assembly in a body.
Although the primaries are still
nine months away, the preliminary
eampaighsof candidates for the sena
torship are becoming warm. Most of
the work seems to be still directed, as
of old, toward "organization" rather
than toward securing the good will of
the voters. What talk of the primary
vote there is seems to concern en
tirely the individual general assembly
districts. The politicians seem to be
thinking only of the possible effect of
the vote in each individual district on
the senators and representatives from
that district. There has even been
some talk of pledging each candidate
to abide by the primary expression of
his home district.
It would be rash to tell the politic
ians that they are making a mistake
from the practical point of view. It
must be assumed that they know their
own business better that anybody else
knows it. But it surely is proper to
remind them that the "whole state
vote is no joke; that it is that vote
which will be uppermost in the public
mind when the primary results are
announced, and that the vote is the
only vote that ought to count as an
expression of the wish of, Illinois as
to its senatorial 'representation at
Washington.
Whatever pledges may be made
should . be on the basis of the all
state vote.
CLACKAMAS COUNTY COURT.
There is pending before the Oregon
City Council an ordinance prohibit
ing the sale and exploding within the
city limits of fire crackers having a
greater length than three inches. The
same legislation proposes to termi
nate the use of those infernal canes,
Dewey chasers, bombs, and toy pis
tols. All sane persons will not only
fervently hope for the unanimous in
dorsement of the ordinance by the
members of the Council, but trust
that the provisions of the measure,
which provides fines and imprison
ment for all violations, will be rigidly
( enforced.
If we can't have a celebration of In
dependence Day without endangering
life, limb, sight and valuable property
interests, let's have none at all. Ac
cording to a Chicago newspaper that
has kept a record of the deaths and
injuries resulting from the use of
the customary explosives on July 4th,
last, it is claimed the total death
list reached 117 to say nothing of the
large number of persons who have
been maimed for life. The small boy
can more safely handle the three
Inch fire-cracker while the same pur
pose will be served in its firing as
though it were a giant bomb.
o
The thorough work that is being
done not only in Clackamas county,
but in Portland markets by Fruit In
spector Reid is to be appreciated by
those having a sincere regard for the
future of the fruit industry in this
state. With no one having authority
to condemn and withdraw from the
market diseased and imperfect fruits,
the unsuspecting public has for a
number of years been feasting on some
pretty scaly fruits. Let the good
work proceed. A vigorous enforce
ment of the new state horticultural
laws will accomplish wonders in the
way of improving the quality of - our
fruit besides preventing the introduc
tion of various pests from other sections.

WORMY APPLES.
Five tons of effected apples were
condemned in Portland last Saturday
by ' Fruit Inspector Reid. The only
way to stop people from marketing
bad apples is by a strict system of in
spection and condemnation. All over
the State, wormy apples are offered
for sale, that should have been fed to
the hogs.- In Grants Pass all sorts of
worthless apples were offered for sale
by dealers, and good fruit cannot be
had notwithstanding that the best ap
ples in the world are grown in the dis
trict. The choice fruit is all put up
for export and the refuse turned over
to local dealers. But these culls are
not the worst of the home trade. It
is the trade in wormy apples that
should be peremtorily put a stop to.
It is true that the infected fruit is
usually sold at a low price, but it is
dear at any price, because of the wide
dissemination of the codlin moth lar
vae. As long as shiftless apple grow
ers can dispose of their, infected fruit
at picking cost, these wormy apples
will be marketed, and to that extentJ
the proper care of orchards discourag
ed, to the detriment, not particularly
of the careless grower, but of the
whole apple industry of the district.
The law provides the remedy, and it
ought to be enforced. Observer.

THE PRIMARY VOTE FOR UNITED
STATES SENATOR.'
The people of Illinois will make an
interesting experiment next spring in
expressing by vote at the primaries
their preference for United States
senator, says the Record-Herald. In
all probability the next general as
sembly will be Republican and a Re
publican senator will be elected. . If

CURE YOUR KIDNEYS.
Do Not Endanger Your Life and Health
When a Cure Is So Easy.
Why will people continue to suffer the
agonies of kidney complaint, backache,
urinary disorders, lameness and stiffness
in the back, and alow themselves to be
come chronic Invalids, when a certain
cure is afforded them? Doan's Kidney
Pills is the remedy to use because it
gives to the kidneys the help they need
to perform their work. Doan's Kidney
Pills cure, and cure permanently. If you
have any, even one of the numerous
symptoms of kidney complaint, cure
yourself now, before diabetes, dropsy or
Brigftt's disease sets in. Read this tes
timonial. Mrs. Conradina Arnold, of 440 East
First St., Albany, Ore., says: "Doan's
I Kidney Pills did me a great deal of good.
I used them for rheumatic pains across
the small of my back and down through
the sides which were very severe when I
stooped to lift anything or sat in one po
sition for any length of time. I got
Doan's Kidney Pills and commenced their
use. I began to get better right away
and continued taking them. They soon
relieved me and I have had very little
trouble since. I shall always try to keep
Doan's Kidney Pills in the house and will
recommend them at every opportunity."'
