COUNTY DIVISION
We have a County Court capable of
running the county to the satisfaction
of even the most exacting. If Clack
amas County is large enough to make
two decent sized counties as the Es
tacada people claim, our County
Court is satisfactorily managing the
business and capable of running two
counties. There is -no need of a
change; we have capable, wide awake
live wires in charge and where would
anybody find better men for the po
sitions. Estacada had better quit un

general don't want to cut the county

Properly
Prepared
Food In
Warm
Weather
By Dr. ISABELLE THOMPSON
SMART of New York
IT IS OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE THAT WE SHOULD EAT
PURE, FRESH, PROPERLY PREPARED FOOD DURING WARM
WEATHER.
Owing to the low -vitality of the entire body the intestinal
tract less readily throws off the poisonous substances that may be
introduced into the system. Food that we might eat with impunity
in the winter is likely to cause serious illness at this season.
Many women who stay at home all summer prepare their own
meals. In that case let them do their marketing with special care and
WATCH THE ICEBOX where provisions are stored. It is danger
ous to eat vegetables, particularly those served raw, that are the least
bit wilted. It is even more DAJSTGEEOUS TO TOUCH FRUIT
THAT IS NOT IN PEEFECT COKDITIOK When it is under
ripe it is likely to cause dysentery, but when it is overripe no one
knows what may happen. i
Fruit that is too ripe has invariably been the resting place of flies,
the very worst germ carriers that we know. THEIR UNCLEAN
FEET MAY HOLD DEATH IN A HUNDRED DIFFERENT
FORMS. And, as I said, one's vitality is lower in warm weather, and
consequently one is in no condition to resist any germs that may be
introduced into the system. "

We like Estacada people; in fact,
like them so well that we mean to
keep them with us. We will elect a
county commissioner from their city
this fall, William H. Mattoon, and he
will continue to see that that district
receives its just dues.
STICKING TO THE OLD PARTY
At the last national election the
Republican party was ahead of any
other by over a million and a quarter
votes, and ahead in the electoral vote
by nearly two to one. Its total was
over 7,600,00, and more than ever
before. At no election since has a
full vote been polled, and consequent
ly the general attitude has not been
definitely ascertained. On the face of
past national elections the'country is
strongly Republican. What is called
a progressive element has sprung up
in the party since 1908, and showed
considerable strength in 1909 andln
1910. It expected to assert itself ac-
tively in the campaign of this year,
but to keep inside the party lines.
Bolting was not a part of its pro
gram. But Colonel Roosevelt sud
denly pushed it aside presenting him
self personally and a third term as
the paramount issue. Defeated" in
the national convention he is organ
izing a third party open on equal
terms to Democrats and Republicans,
and it denounces alike both the old
leading parties.
It is no wonder that protesting Re
publicans like Senator La Follette
look upon the butting-in of Col.
Roosevelt as an insolent display of
egotism and indifference to the rights
of others. He is not the originator ol
the so-called progressive movement.
He was supposed to mean what he
said when he announced that he
would not be a candidate for a third
term. Now he asks both Republicans
and Democrats to desert their party
and support him for a third term.
Progressive Republicans he fancies
will flock . to him anyway. His mis
take in this respect can be judged
from what Senator La Follette is say
ing. The best thing in the situation
is the privilege of letting the turbu
lent water run by. Support o the
Taft and Sherman ticket is the safe
alternative and it cuts out the need
lss doubts and difficulties that are pil
ing up around the third party and
third-term movement. A vote for

(Continued from page 1)
ting American registry for foreign
built ships owned by Americans was
indicated late today when telegrams
of protest were received from the
Newport News Chamber of Commerce
and other civic bodies in shipbuilding
centers. TRe telegrams demand a- full
hearing before actioii'is taken .
The amendment put into the bill by
the Senate opens the way to' Ameri
can owners of foreign-built ships to
enjoy the privileges of American reg
istry, provided they keep their ships
exclusively in the trade to and from
foreign ports. It is understood many
House iaembers are demanding that
if foreign-built, ships are permitted to
fly the American flag, Congress also
shall pass a law permitting the im
portation without tariff duty of ma
terials used in the building of ships in
American yards.
This demand frequently has been
before Congress. The cost of manu
facturing ships in the United States
is much higher than in foreign ship
yards and it is said conditions would
be somewhat equalized if the cheap
er foreign materials could be import
ed without the payment of tariff.
The House, in requesting a confer
ence today, named as its members
Representatives Adamsbn, Simson
and Stevens, of Minnesota. The Sen
ate named Senators Brandegee, Bris
tow and Simmons. Little difficulty is
expected in reconciling the differen
ces between the Senate and the
House on the bill.
President Taft told several callers
today that he expected to sign the
bill. The President is said to have
declared that some of the provisions
of the measure did not meet his views
entirely, but that he expected to ap

Railroad and legal experts in Con
gress hold the view that the Senate
authorized a highly important exten
sion of the power of the Interstate
Commerce Commission in adopting
the Bourne amendment to the Panama
Canal bill.
The provision would authorize the
Commission to divorce competing rail
roads and steamship lines wherever
they were found to operate to the det
riment of the public and would ex
tend powers of regulation over water
routes. Such control has long been
desired by the Commission, but. the
water lines have never conceded the,
right of the Commission to supervise
their business or their relations with
the railroads.
COOL YOUR SKIN
Don't Suffer from Sunburn, but Re
lieve the Pain
To allay the smarting and reduce
the swelling and inflammation of sun
burn we recommend Rexall Mentho
line Balm. If it doesn't restore com
fort to the burned skin you can have
your money back.
The antiseptic, cooling qualities of
Rxeall Mentholine Balm are derived
from the menthol it contains in com
bination with other well-known heal
ing agents. Its purpose is to soothe
the irritated nerves, ease the smart
ing and reduce the inflammation. We
do more than recommend Rexall Men
tholine Balm; we are ready to freely
refund the purchase price to anyone
who has used it and found it unsatis
factory. We suggest that you keep Rexall
Mentholine Balm on hand all the time,
because it will be found useful in
many cases, such as tootache, neural
gia, bruises, hives, insect stings and
j inflammation of the nasal passages
I and throat, such "us catarrh, asthma
and hay fever. Price, 25 cents. Sold
in this community only at our store.

Details of the massacre of Bulgar

Kotschana, 50 miles southwest of
here, show the butchery lasted three
hours and that more than 140 Bul
garians were killed.
The trouble began with the explo
sion of a bomb in the crowded mar
ket square. Five Bulgarians and six
other persons were killed. Five min
utes later a second bomb exploded
in the same place causing further fa
talities. Soon afterward Mussulmans appear
ed armed with guns, revolvers, knives
and clubs and carrieds out a whole
sale "butchery, Turkish officials look
ing on.
Later, on Turkish troops arrived,
but instead of arresting the Mussul
mans made a house-to-house search
for Bulgarians, many of whom they
drove to prison with their hands
bound. AU were Christians.
One hundred and forty corpses were
found, more than 100 being piled up
in the courtyard of the. Bulgarian
