Pressed Brick and Twenty by One Hundred Feet Will Cost at Least Six Thousand Dollars Original ( Intention Was to Have Built Last Year Carl Welsert, the Harness Man, Projector and Owner. Carl Welsert. the Court street har ness man, will in a short time begin the construction of a modern brick building on the property which he recently bought of W. F. Matlock and "William Itoesch) which he will occupy as a harness Bhop. The building will be of brick and -will have a pressed brick front and will be 20x100 feet in dimensions. It will bo one story in height and will have a large skylight over the rear part. In order that there will be plenty of light. The completed building will cost at least $6,000 and perhaps more, ns Mr. Welsert has not settled on nil the details of the construction. It will bo ready for occupancy by the middle of May if the plans now un der consideration aro carried out. Mr. Welsert would have bought the property some time last year and had the building completed and occupied by this time had It not been for the menace of the old "Wheeler building, which Is next to I Syrup I Sarsaparilla j j Compound j J Blood Purifier and System Tonic ' WE MAKE OUR OWN BEE OUR WINDOW You will unde.stuud why It is the beat TALLMAN & CO.

The Wheeler building is considered a flrctrap and a menace, not only to nil tho build ings on that sldo of tho street, but to those on the other side as well, and for this reason building Is re tarded In that neighborhood. Now that the fire department has taken the matter in hand, it is thought that such restrictions will be put on the place that it will not be of so much danger to the other buildings In the block. COUNTY CHARGED UNJUSTLY. Simple Blanks Used Office and Printed In Assessor's by Tribune, Cost Five Prices. Among the bills to be presented to the county court at this session 1b one for 3,000 small blanks, 4x6 inches, on cheap paper, containing 12 words and ruled for listing prop erty and used in the office of tho county assessor. The actual commercial rate on these blanks would be about $2.25 per 1,000, but the bill of the Tribune for these 3,000 blanks, as it will be presented to the court, is $37.50, or more man nve umes uiu cuuiiuuiciui price of the printing. This is only one small Item on the bill for county printing, but it is sufficient to make the taxpayers wonder where this graft is going to stop. A. M. Snyder to Portland. A. M. Snyder, who for tho past year has been connected with the Spokesman-Review, left this morning to take his new position on the Port land Telegram. Mr. Snyder Is a newspaper man of many years' ex perience, and while in this city dem onstrated his ability as a news gath erer. The senate has confirmed the ap pointment of A. M.

NQT HERE HURTS PENDLETON AGENTS OF PORTLAND POST- OFFICE SELL STAMPS HERE Lewis and Clark Job Printing Con' cern of Portland, Skins Eastern Oregon Cities and Adds Insult to Injury by Soliciting Stamp Sales for Postoffice of the Metropolis Stamp Orders Should Be Cancel led. Agents of Portland job printing offices took orders for several bund red thousand Lewis and Clark fair ei elopes In this city, about a month ago, and now It transpires that many of tho business men who ordered these envelopes, also ordor- ed stamps from tho same agent, in this manner depriving the Pendleton postoffice of Bovernl hundred dollnrs in stamp sales and adding a llko amount to the Portland postoffice. Tho stamps which will be placed on these envolopes coming into Pen dleton, will bo purchased in Port' land, and Pendleton money will swell the income nt the big postof flee In the metropolis, while the re ceipts of tho home postoffice will ho whittled down to that extent. Tho business men who mado these purchases did so without thinking of the bad result It would bring to the home postoffice, and perhaps lit' tic thinking that the home papers which support the town nnd defend Its interests were also entitled to furnish these envolopes by using the Lewis and Clark official emblem, through a contract with that corpor ation. Several thousand dollars will be sent out of Pendleton, which might have been left at home to circulate among the institutions and swell home pay rolls. The Lewis nnd Clark fair Is working many a graft In Oregon, and if the newspapers will shut up tight, and let that con cern pay for its advertising, It will be made to feel the power of the press. Instead of apportioning out this job printing among the country pa pers, charging a commission for the use of the official emblem, and per mining the envolopes and souvenir paper to be printed by each paper in each town, as they might solicit any other job work, the privilege is "farmed" out to some job printing concent in Portland which can help the fair in no possible way, and which is a competitor to the conn try papers, whoso money is spent in the cities now supporting this cheap printing concern. It is hoped that the business men who have ordered stamps from Port' land will cancel tho order immedl ntely, and at least buy stamps from the home postoffice, even though their Job work for a year ahead has been bought In Potland.

But how soon, in many cases, the wife loses the advantage and fades in face and fails in flesh, while her husband grows even more rugged and robust. There 13 one chief cause for this wifely failure and that ia, the failure of the .womanly health. When there is irregu larity or an unhealthy drain, inflamma tion, ulceration or female weakness, the general health is soon impaired. fccrrw" RJBWAUJD 1 FOR WOMCN WHO CANNOT BB CURED.
