15 Where seven railroads meet the ocean-going vessels of the world must be a great business center. There is no exception to this rule. The Willamette River skirts University Park on the south and west, the Columbia River on the north, with four trans-continental and three interstate railroads centering in its midst THE SUNDAY OREGOJTIAN, PORTLAND, OCTOBER 7, 1906. Railroads The Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, Northern Pacific and Great Northern four great trans-continental railroads cross, recross and surround Uni versity Park. The Portland & Seattle, Oregon Kail road & Navigation Company and the Oregon & Wash ington Railroad also have lines thru University Park. These railroads are main lines and not branch lines. Other Advantages - University Park is no outside, wildcat specula tion. It has been within the city boundaries of Port land for fourteen years. It has Bull Run water, a 30 acre public park owned and kept by the city, city schools, quick transportation, electric arc street lights, graded streets, cement walks, a building re striction, three systems of wide boulevards, view of Cascade and Coast Ranges of mountains, view of four perpetually snow-covered mountains, high, level and sightly, and the seat of Columbia University. Capitalists lend money freely on University Park lots for building purposes. What Does It Mean? It means that mills, factories, jobbing houses, wholesale houses, banks, hotels, retail stores, busi ness houses of every description, are seeking loca tions in the vicinity of this bustling center. It means that lots now selling for $6' per front foot, or $300 each, will, within a very short time, advance to $100 per front foot, or $5000 each. Study the Picture Look at the location of the navigable rivers; look at the location of the railroads and proposed rail roads; look at the street-car lines and proposed lines; s" SV SSVVvvsy Showing' University Park and Vicinity Drawn on an Exact Scale look at the factory districts, nortli, south" and west; look at the boulevards and wide streets; see where the drydock, stockyards, packing-houses, lumber mills and the Columbia University are located. See where McKenna Junction and Maegly Junction are located. You know that it will be only a question of a short time till this condition will make the cheapest lot in University Park worth $100 per front foot. Remember Don-' 't forget that lots at St. Johns advanced from $100 each to $10,000 each since 1901, and that ad vance was made on the strength of only one spur or branch railroad. St. 'Johns today has no main line, and yet there are lots in St. Johns that cannot be bought for less than $10,000, that sold in 1901 for less than $100. Remember also, that in 1900 and 1901 1 foretold, thru the columns of this paper, what would take place in St. Johns, and those who fol lowed my advice made big fortunes. Those who will follow my advice now and buy a few lots at Univer sity Park within the next " 60 days will make big profits within the next three years. Prices and Terms Until October 15 we will sell lots 25x100 feet, alley back of each, for $150; terms, $10 cash down on each lot, balance $4 monthly, or $15 monthly on 100x100 feet. No interest oh back payments if paid on or before due. Prices will be advanced $25 on each lot October 15, without further notice. Don't miss thi3 opportunity to make a safe investment. Francis I.

Report of Special Investigating Com mittee Exonerates Government Reindeer Agent In Alaska. . WALLA WALLA, Oct. 6. (Special.) Ringing resolutions in vindication of their fellow member. Rev. Sheldon Jackson, of Alaska, and branding as false the charges of looseness in busi ness relations and incompetency in connection with the reindeer business of Alaska, brought against him In the report" of Special Government Agent Churchill, made to the Department of Interior last June, were unanimously adopted by the Presbyterian synod of Washington Just before noon today. The resolutions were ordered sent to the President. Not only did the synod have the re port of the Home Missionary Society showing that the charges were ground less and the report of Dr. Harris, ap pointed by the President to look into the affair, but four months ago It ap pointed a special committee of Its own to investigate t'he charges against Dr. Jackson thoroughly and they reported this morning. This committee, consisting of F. H. Whitworth, an Alaskan civil engineer; Frank Black, a merchant of Seattle; and Dr. Hutchinson,, of Tacoma. re ported the charges against Dr. Jack eon as utterly untrue, basing its find ings In part on the personal informa tion' of Mr. Whitworth, who has been In Alaska nearly every year since SS1, putting In the waterworks at Skag way and in the interest of the Petrole um Coal and Iron Company, of Seat tle, at Kyak, Alaska. Mr. Whitworth ays that from his personal knowledge the charges and insinuations are ut terly unfounded. Rev. D. O. Ghormley, who traveled among the mission stations of Alaska during the past Summer, and ' made himself thoroughly acquainted with conditions there, testifies that in his judgment the facts do not carry out the statements of the reports of Mr. Churchill. The Seattle Hardware Company made the following statement to the com mittee: "We have had extensive deal ings with Jackson for 15 years, fur nishing supplies for schools and un der stations, and are pleased to state that our dealings have . been highly satisfactory and business-like In every particular. That during the same time we have had large dealings with other Government agents, but Dr. Jackson's accounts . were the only ones which were always correct."

Scien tific analysis shows that digestion re quires pepsin, nitrogenous ferments, and the secretion of hydrochloric acid. When your food fails to digest, it is proof posi tive that some of these agents are lack ing in your digestive apparatus. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain nothing but these natural elements nec essary to digestion and when placed at work In the weak stomach and small In testines, supply what these organs need. They stimulate the gastric glands and gradually bring the digestive organs back to their normal condition. . Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been subjected to critical chemical tests at home and abroad and are found to con tain nothing but natural digestives. Chemical Laboratory.
