TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1909. 18 LY ONE MAN NOT PLEASED AT ITER All Mount Scott Is Satisfied With Contract Made With Woodmere Company. MAYOR'S EFFORTS PREVAIL Directly Throngh City's Executive Bettor Conditions Are' Brought About. Affording Pure Supply at Cost Greatly Reduced. People livlrs In the Mount Scott dis trict, -where the "vToodmere Water Com pany's eystem furnishes: the supply of water, are said to be fuiiy satisfied with the conditions now existing, since Mayor Smon and the members of the Water Board turned on the Hull Run service from the Mount Tabor Reservoir. They are petting more and better water at greatly reduced rntes. and directly throup'n the Mayors efforts. That they re In far better circumstances now than ' formerly, when they had not enough wa ter for bathing purposes and often not . sufficient for cookinK. is attested by all concerned. That they are receiving this ' service for much lower rates is proved :by the contract between the city and company, which is published herewith. So far as is known. J. D. M. Oockwell. who introduced before the Central Ijibor . Council last Friday nlKht. a resolution callin? for the recall of Mayor Simon for his part inssecurinjr improved water fup- ' ylv for the Mount -ott district. Is the only person llvtns; In the district who is dissatisfied. And. judging from the fact that Mr. Crockwell also condemned the Mavor for running an aliased "open : town." it is said it may bare been the I alleged lax moral situation more than the water supply that troubled him and tHnt moved him to cause the adoption of the resolution. This was also bared on an erroneous supposition in that it declared , George W. Brown, president of the Wood- ! mere Water Company to be a member of Mayor Slmons Water Board, which is in- correct, as Mr. Brown ic not; he is a member of the Executive Board, having '. nothing to do with the Water Board. Sitnation Needed Kelief. All who regularly attend the sessions of the Water Board and who are well in formed on the situation and the proceed- Ings leading up to the agreement between the private company and the city, know I that the conditions In the Mount Scott I district prior to this time were almost ' unbearable. People there were suffering 1 for lack of water supply, and came plead- lng to the Mayor and the members of 1 the board for relief. It was finally de- elded the city must act. although the dis trict had been a part of Portland for but : a few months. Therefore a main was laid i from the Mount Tabor reservoir to the ' Woodmere system, and relief given. i Mayor Simon personally Investigated the ; rates charged by the Woodmere company, . 1 and decided they were too hUh. He per 1 eonally requested President Brown to re .' duce them, which was done, as is shown 1 . 1 . n-hl(.h follows. This IS the condition which now prevails in the district, the Bull Run supply having been turned on last week. and. so far as is known, every one save Mr. Crockwell Is satisfied. He wanted to recall the Mayor, as set forth In the resolution, both be cause of the alleged fact that the Mayor had "stood in" to rob the people of the Mount Scott district and had conducted a "wide open" town. Following is the contract between the. city and the Woodmere Water Company., which was Bigned by President Brown for the company and by Mayor Simon; Su perintendent Dodge and Clfy Attorney Kavanaugb. for the city: Text of Contract Signed.

Many persons do not realize that a bad stomach will cause insomnia. Coffee drinking, being auch an an cient and respectable form of dissipa tion, few realize that the drag caf feine contained In the coffee and tea. Is one of the principal causes of dya 'pepsia and nervous troubles. Without their usual portion of coffee or tea, the coffee topers are nervous. Irritable and fretful. That's the way with a whisky drinker. He has 'got to have his dram "to settle hia nerves" habit. To leave off coffee Is an easy matter Jf you want to try It, because Postum well boiled according to directions gives a gentle but natural support to the nerves and does not contain any drug nothing but food. Physicians know this to be true, as one from Georgia writes: "I have cured myself of a long standing case of Nervous Dyspepsia by leaving off coffee and using Postum," says the doctor. "I also enjoy refreshing sleep, to which I had been aa utter stranger for 20 years. "In treating Dyspepsia in Its various types. I find little trouble when I can induce patients to quit coffee and adopt Postum." The doctor Is right, and "there's a reason." Read the little book, "The Road to Wellville," In pkgs.

Twenty hours late from Coos Bey ports, the steamship Breakwater ar rived u yesterday morning at 11 o'clock. Tho delay was caused by the In vestigation by Inspectors Edwards and Fuller into the sinking of the 6tern-wlw-el steamer Alert by the Breakwater on October 15. At the investigation Cap- . . . a mere is due one way to cius an. sum to remove tho cause that produces and keeps it open. No matter where located, any sore that remains until it beoomes chronic does so because of impure blood; the circulation constantly discharges its poUuted" matter into the place and it is Impossible for nature to heal the sore. S. S. S. heals Bores and ulcers by purifying the blood. It removes every trace of taint or impurity from the circulation, and thus completely does away with the cause. Ko local application reaches below the infected flesh at the spot, and for this reason can have no curative effect on a sore or ulcer; while such treatment Is being used alone, the germs and impurities are constantly increasing in the blood and the sore is bound to grow worse. When S.S.3. has cleansed the blood and enriched and purified the circulation the place begins to take on a more healthy appearance, th different symptoms show improvement, the flesh around the ulcer gets firm, new skin and tissues are formed, and aided by pure, rich blood, nature provides a perfect and lasting cure. Under the tonic and blood-purifying effects of S.S.S., the system is built up, and those whose health has been impaired by the drain and worry of an old sore will be greatly benefited by its use.

(Kelso) Oct. nnnnLnniiiiiiiiimninuiuaniiii! vy -Ji.iMmiiimiiii Afflicted Men REASONS FOR MY It is not so much In knowing a great deal about many things, as in knowing. all about a few things. When a doctor graduates from a medical college It is after the vari ous professors have tried to impart their knowledge to him, and It takes about 12 or 15 professors in the various lines of study four years to Qualify a student for the practice of medicine, and then he Is simply li censed not qualified. Does any sane man expect a med ical student to sKO forth from a col lege as thorough In knowledge in each branch as the individual pro cessor who finds it necessary to de vote Ills entire time to a single sub ject, such as anatomy or chemistry, and who is then far from perfect? It is. a. poor rule that won't work both "ways if one professor is not competent to teach a student all about anatomy, chemistry, physiolo gy, histology, obstetrics, surgery, pathology, bacteriology and the many other branches too numerous to mention, that he is expected to be thorough in, how can the raw recruit of a medical student be expected to retain what the com bined efforts of 12 to 15 men have tried to crowd into him? It never has been done and never will be. The doctor who is suc cessful is the doctor who spe tpilljmiLillimmflm mm 1 wf'S&mm cos mmmimmmM&k cializes -in some particular line. He does not have to be a hypocrite about advertising, and devotes all his time to his special line of work, and Is therefore generally a man pro ficient enough to have something worth advertising and willing to pay the market price, instead of sponging In a hundred different ways. I don't mean, however, that everv doctor who advertises is all right any more than every doctor who doesn't advertise. There are good and bad on both sides of the fence. My offices have been established 31 years, are incorporated under state laws and furnish the best bank and personal references.

LOUIS MEDICAL CO., ING Quickly and Permanently Cured You need not pay any doctor an exorbitant or fancy price for treatment when I offer you a thorough and permanent CURE for a moderate fee.

AVhen I pronounce a case cured there is not a particle of infection or in-, flammation remaining, and there is not the slightest danger that the ailments will return.

VARICOSE VEINS I use neither knife, ligatures nor caustfc in my treatment for Varicose Veins. I positively cure this ailment in one week by an absolutely painless method and without detaining the patient from business. , OBSTRUCTION My method of curing obstruction is new and en tirely original.
