Capital Investing In Sumptep Proper ty Home Investors Turn to the Development of Local Enterprises New Firm Starts Out With Flat tering Prospects. Sumpter. Or., Feb. 20.--(To tlx? nOitor.) Generally In a mining com munity, where there are numerous companies being formed every week, for the purpose ot developing the piopurty of rome Individual or cor poration, theie Is very little Interest manifested Ir the enterprise, In the way of local pel sons becoming Inter ested in the game financially; In fact, the capital which has developed the mines of Eastern Oregon, has, almost without exception, come from the people In the East, and , naturally, the returns from these investments go out of the district, where are lo- 1 cntcd the mines producing many mil lions of dollais each year. Lately a well known property In this district was acquired by a stock company, and Is being financed by one of the prominent firms of Eastern Or egon, and since this fact has become known, there has been a decided "stir" among mining and business men of the community. The property referred to Is that of the Highland Gold Mines Company, locally known as the Knapp group of mines, In the Sumpter district, and now being financed by the well known firm of Nell J. Sorensen & Co., and of which much mention has recently been made by the different mining Jour uals of the country. It is, Indeed, a good omen to see the people who know this property and the management, investing in home enterprise, Tind marks a radical change In the development of the mines of Eastern Oregon. Had this state of affairs existed some years ago, the mines of the different dl trlcts would have been much more thoroughly developed than they now are. This interest In the Highland com pany Is evidently not only local, but those at a distance who are ever on the lookout for something that Is good and from wnlch they can expect rea f-onable returns In a reasonable length of time, have seen, in this company, an opportunity to secure an Invest ment In one, of the most promising of piopertles, and In order that they might not be disappointed by reason of their orders being received after the first allotment of stock had been exhausted, many of them have sent In telegraphic orders. The action of both the home people who have- Indorsed the property as an Investment,', arid 'at the same ,tlm? ihave shown- their confidence In the mines acthelr very doors, and also tno foresight -ot 'those who are order ing tholr. stock by telegraph, should certainly be commended, and it speaks well' for this energetic firm -wno nave evidently established a leputatlou for fairness and honesty with their clients, -which will redound not only to the credit of themselves, but to the ontlre mining world, and esceplally to the Eastern Oregon dis trict. Escaped an Awful Fate. Mr. H. Haggins, of Melbourne, Fla., writes: "My doctor told me I had consumption and nothing could be done for me. I was given up to die.' Tho offer of a free trial bottle of Dr. King's New Dlscoveiy for Consump tion, Induced me to try It. I am now cn the road to recovery and owe all to Dr. King's New Discovery.

Civil Service Examiners Meet With a Perfect GIpss Eye in a Candidate for Government Position.

The commissioners found that tho state ments made in the letter tallied with tne records. Tiie candidate was summoned before a medical expert nt the commission's New York office and the report of that odlcer conflrnis the company'b assertion, The medlcnl officer says that the left eye was of glass, but that it could hardly be detected, as it rolled In unison with the other, was of tho same color nnd looked for all the world like a natural optic. The physi cian was In some doubt himself, ho says, oven after the usual tests until he tapped the candidate on the pupil with the butt end of a penknife, The commission announced, with considerable heat, that It would not comply with the company's request.'

When Sheriff Graham was marshal, prior to January 1, ho was forced by tho council tc suppress gambling In this city, and went after the vice 5o vigorously as to make it dangerous even for society people to play cards at home, says an Aberdeen paper. The saloon element opposed him for sheriff tooth and nail, but he was elected by a majority of over BOO. With a new city administration gambling wns resumed, and Sheriff Graham now says he will make every council or town board In every town In the county show their hunds. Ho nieared before thu Aberdeen council Saturday night and asked for Its co-operation In suppressing tho vice, but tho council, after listening fo the remarks, adjourned withorc spying n word. Sheriff Graham will go before every municipal body in the same way and then will strike at the gambling fra ternity. Hoquiam, which hns been a wide open town for months, and has profil ed at the. expense of other cities In which gambling was curtailed, will be the first on the list of cities In which the crusade will be started. EDDY'S SCHOOL LAW HOUSE ACTS ON SEVERAL IMPORTANT MEASURES, School Tax of $6 Per Capita Upland Owner Has Rights Over Tirls Lands. Salem, Feb. 19. The house this morning passed threo Eddy bills One Is to require each .ounty to levy a school tax of at least $6 poi each person in the county between 20 and four years of age. Another of tho blllh proposes to divert the earnings of convicts from the general fund of the state to the betterment fund, for the Improvement of the penitentiary The third bill proposes to glvo "shore" or "upland" owners priority in acquisition of tide lands In front' of their shore property from the state land board. The present law as to school taxes requires a levy in each county of at least five mills. The bill provides that the per capita amount levied shall never be less than the per capita amount of the school tax levied in 1083. In urging passage of the bill, Eddy pointed out the wide diversity of val uations in ihe counties, and -the con sequently wide diversity in the mon eys available for schools. Gill advocated passage of the bill, saying that the constant reduction of assessed values had reduced sums of money for schools so much that in many counties the pei capita levy was under $4. Kay opposed the measure, and ar gued that the counties should be loft to raise money In accordance with their needs. The bill then passed. Flat Salary Bill. The bill placing state officers upon a fiat salary, introduced In the houso by Mr. Kay, pased last night with but two dissenting votes. Bilyeu and Both, This allows the governor, secretary of state and state treasurer a salary each of $5000 per year; tho attorney general, $3000 per year; the chief Justice of the supreme court, $4500, and the associate Justices, $4000 per year. The bill will not be effective until 1P05. Have your shoes repaired at Teutsch's. THE BEST MFG. CO.

Surgical aid was hurriedly summoned and the little fellow made as comfortable p possible. Tho Injury, or course, was accidental, but It was a foolish on" and th,e elder pupils are Jilghly cc-r sured. Jefferson Review. We sell the greatest of blood puri fiers, Acker's Blood Elixir, under a pcsltlve guarantee. It will cure all chronic and other blood poisons. If you have eruptions or sores on your body, or arc pale, weak'or run down, it Is Just what you need. We refund money If you nre not satisfied. 50 cents and $1. F. W. Schmidt & Co. Trappers are numerous on Mount Hood this winter, many fur-bearing animals being found there. Those Pale Girls How many pale girls there are ! Girls who have the will, but not the power to bring out their vitality. Doctors call it anaemia, which means poor blood. They are thin, delicate and nervous. Their digestion is usually poor, the appetite not all that it should be and they do not even get all the nourishment that is in the food that they do eat. They linger between strength and weakness with no cer tainty as to what change a day will bring forth. Scott's Emulsion is for all such girls. The hypophos phites combined with the cod liver oil will tone up the sys tem, give the blood new life, improve the appetite and help digestion. Above all it gives nourishment. Girls are more liable to anaemia than boys; this is because the blood of women contains fewer red corpuscles, more water and less albumen and salts than the blood of men. Scott's Emulsion seems to be the very thing to dis count these differences. It helps all pale, thin girls when nothing else will. We'll send you a sample free upon request.
