LABORERS ARE NOT PLENTIFUL Paper Mills and Railroad Experi ence Difficulty in Finding Men. OREGON CITY. Or.. April . (Special.) It has been years since work of all kinds was as plentiful at Oregon City as It Is now. Notwithstanding that the pa per mills maintain a satisfactory wage schedule, $1.75 being the minimum wages paid for labor, these Institutions find it a difficult matter to keep a full force of operatives.

The Southern Pacific Company has not yet secured a force of section hands at this place to replace those who went on a strike a few weeks ago because they were made to perform the same charac ter of work as was being done by Ital ians, although they received but $L30 per day as against $2 for the foreigners.

QUESTION IS ON REVIEW Orcpon Senator Says Courts' Power to ArrcM Order In Violation of Constitutional Rights Should Be Upheld. OREGONTAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. Aprii Senator Fulton, who has made a close study of the railroad rate question, and familiarized him self with -every move made In the Sen- TRACKS FOR FOREST GROVE SCENIC AT FIFTH STRKET ANI FACIKIC AVENUE, FOKEST GROVE. ate. tonight made the following state ment: , 'l observe The Oregonlan states edi torially In its issue of April that the so-called White House amendment pro posed by Senator Long to the rate bill seems to be a compromise and ex pressly gives the courts power to re view the acts or the commission In fixing rates, but that It is left to the courts to say whether the old or new rates shall be in force, pending a hearing. "The statement is not accurate. Tho Hepburn bill Is silent as to the review but Is friends contend that thereunder court review can be had in any case where the rate or regulation of the commission shall be in excess of its authority, or In violation of the con stitutional right of a carrier; as. for instance, should the rate be so low as to amount to the taking of the prop erty fur public use without Just com pensation. In all other cases the rates and regulations of the commission would and. friends of the bill contend, should be conclusive. "Opponents of the bill, however, con tend that without specific provision for review no judicial review can be had. even on the ground that constitutional rights are invaded and hence the act would be unconstitutional. To meet that objection the Long amendment was prepared and offered. It In terms restricts the right or review to cases where tho commission .acts wnolly without authority or Its orders in fringe the constitutional right of the party, which is exactly the right of review the friends of the bill contend exists without the amendment. "The real Issue is. Shall matters rest ing in the discretion of the commission be subject to review? The proposed amendment does not deal with the question of suspending the orders of the commission pending review. It be ing generally believed that the power of the courts to restrain by Injunction an order alleged to bo In violation of the constitutional right, pending Inves tigation, could not be prohibited. It is true that Senator Bailey holds other wise, but there are few who agree with him. The amendment Is as objection able to opponents of the bill, however, as Is the original bill, for they demand unrestricted review of all orders."

This remarkable woman, whose Maiden, name was Estes, was born in Lvnn, Mass., February 9th, 1819, coming- from a good old Quaker family. For some years she taught school, and. became known as a woman of an alert w and investigating' mind, an earnest seeker after knowledge, and above all, possessed of a wonderfally sympa- ineuc nature. In .1843 she married Isaac Plnkham. a builder and real estate operator, and their early married life was marked by prosperity and happiness. They had lour children, three sons and daughter. In those good old fashioned days it was common for mothers to make their own home medicines from roots and herbs, nature's own remedies calling in a physician only in specially urgent cases. By tradition and ex perience many of them rained a won- derfal knowledge of the curative prop erties oi tne various roots ana neros. Mrs. Pinkham toolc a great interest In the study of roots and. herbs, their characteristics and cower over disease. She maintained that just as nature so bountifully prorides in the harvest fields and orchards, vegetable foods of all kinds; so, if we but take the pains to find them, in the roots and herbs of the field there are remedies ex pressly designed to cure the various ills and weaknesses of the body, and it was her pleasure to search these out, and prepare simple and effective medi cines for her own family and friends. Chief of these was a rare combina tion of the choicest medicinal roots and herbs found best adapted for the cure of the ills and weaknesses necu liar to the female sex, and LydiaE. Pink- ham's friends and neighbors learned that her compound relieved and cured and it became quite popular among mem. All this so far was done freely, with on i money ana without price, as a labor of love. But in 1873 the financial crisis struck Lynn. Its length and severity were too much for the large real estate interests of the Pinkham family, as this class of business suffered most from fearful depression, so when theCenten nial year dawned it found their prop erty swept away, sqme other source of income had to be found. At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was made known to the world. The three sons and the daughter, .With their mother, combined forces to clas of amusement. "Daredevil" Castelane will loop the sap at erery performance. His feat Is awe-Inspiring and thrilling, and for performing this startling turn he receives a weekly salary of $300. This Is without doubt the greatest sensational act the Sul livan & Consldlne circuit has brought to the Pacific Coast. Miss Ella.

TLLLMANN 4b BENDEL, Distributors. Portland. OF LVDIA E. P1NKHAM restore the family fortune. They argued that the medicine which 'was so good for their woman friends and neighbors was equallv crood for the women of the whole world. The Pinkhams had no moner. and little credit. Their first laboratory was the kitchen, where roots and herbs were steeped on the stove, gradually filling a gross of bottles. Then came the question of selling it, for always bsfore they had given it away freely. They hired a job printer to run oft! some namnhlets setting forth the merits of the medi cine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and these were distributed by the Pinkham sons in Boston, New York, and Brooklyn. The wonderful curative properties of the medicine were, to a great extent, self-advertising, for whoever used it recommended it to others, and the de mand gradually increased. In 1877. by combined efforts the fam ily had saved enough money to com mence newspaper advertising and from taai iime me grow i n ana success oz the enterprise were assured until to day Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vege table Compound have become house hold words, everywhere, and many tons of roots and herbs are used annu ally in its manufacture. Lydia E. Pinkham herself did nok live to see the great success of this work. She passed to her reward years ago, but not till she had provided means for continuing her work, as effectively as stie could have don ii herself. During her long and eventful expe rience she was ever methodical in her work and she was always careful topre serve a record of every case thatcame to her attention. The case a I every sick woman who applied to her for advice and there were thousands received careful study, and the details, includ ing symptoms, treatment ana results were recorded for future reference, and to-day these records, together with hundreds of thousands made since, are available to sick women the world over, and represent a vast collabora tion of information regarding the treatment of woman's ills, which for authenticity and accuracy can hardly be equaled in any library in tha world. With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her daughter-in-law, .the present Mrs. Pinkham. She was carefully instructed in all her hard-won knowledge, and for years she assisted her in her rast correspondence. To her hands naturally fell the direction of the work when its-originator passed away. 'For nearly twenty five years she has continued it, and nothing in the work shows when the first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham, now the mother of a large family, took it up. With worxsTwn assistants, some as capable as herself, the present Mrs. Pinkham continues this great work, and probably fsom the office of no other person have so many women been ad vised how to regain health. Sick wo men, this advice is "Yours for Health" freely given if you only write to ask for it. Such is the history of Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound : made from simple roots and herbs ; the one great medicine for women's ailments, and the fitting monument to the nobla woman whose name it bears. Carter."
