MEMORIALIZE CONGRESSMEN.
The Willamette Valley De- almost wantonly, too, if one looks
velopment league will hold its to the f ture and the People that
nsxc meeting in Eugene on Sep- must follow. Reference is made
tember 29 and 30. If the men to our forests, to our, ores and
who compose the league go at!what is manufactured from
matters in the proper and busi-!them' our coal and other raw
Tvss-Hke manner thev mav ac- materials. Once gone, they are
coinplish much good for this part j
of the valley. They never can
do anything by simply getting
togather and reaiing a theoretic
al paper or two, rssoluting a
little and going home. They
must adopt some well defined
plan of action whereby they can
stand for for soma one -thing.
In other words, the people of the
valley must hang together. To
U3 it seems the one thing that
should be of interest to all in the
upper valley should be an open
river the year around- This
would benefit all classes alike
more than anything yet suggest
ed. The way to get this is to go
after it and do it vigorously, too.
How to get at it is a matter of
judgment. It does not seem to
do very much good to appeal
to such men as Major Langfitt,
; nor to the Portland Chamber of
Commerce, for this has been
tried in the past and failed so
dismally that we got mad. Only
last May (we think it was May)
Major Langfitt gave Corvallis
ites to understand that the
dredger would be on the river at
this point on a certain day and
begin operations. - The day came
and passed, but no dredger cast
anchor hereabout. Nor has she
been here yet.
We are still wondering why
she did not show up. There
never was a satisfactory explana
tion given. Now, what do you
suppose was the agency that
caused the major to experience
so sudden a change of heart?
Many of our citizens have vainly
sought an answer that appeal
to their sense of "fairness" and
"squareness." fit seems that
there are many things that the
common, the people most con-
eerned, have no right to know,
This was one of these "things.'
Another example of a little
governmental authority and the
"people be damned." -Now,
let the leaguers of In
dependence, Albany, Corvallis
and Eugene, when they meet in
that city a month hence, act in
concert in their demands. Let
them draft a memorial to Ore
gon's congressmen and try that
method of gaining a little re
cognition. The scheme is worth
trying, and if stuck to with the
pertinacity of purpose the mat
ter warrants may result in some
thing beneficial.
HELD IN TRUST.
The United States is fortunate
in the possession of resources
that cause the leading men of
other nations to look upon us
with bewilderment. . On every
hand and in every state we find
some source of natural wealth.
Certain sections are important
on, account of their agricultural
products, others for their tim
ber, and still others for minerals
All these are sub-divided, cer
tain agricultural localities pro
ducing a given thing, cotton for
instance, in the south. The
greatstatesof the Middle West are
celebrated for their corn; then
there are the western districts.
In these districts other products
do well, too, tut each is particu
iarily'famed for the production
of some one thi.ig. So it is
throughout the union. In agri
culture. the product of the, soil
of course becomes a resource of
the country the labor-, and care
of man perpetuates this resource
and so long as man uses ihe
brains Dame Nature crave him
this resource of the country may
be made perpetual and we may
feed, or help to feed, millions of
people in. foreign lands. This
jg weu an(J we wouli not have it
Qerwise
But it seems that certain nat
ural resources of the land are be
i ing bartered away for the en-
I richmient of certain classes, and
Sne forever, , No care, no labor
on the part of man
can perpet
)f coal, for
uate these fields
instance.
. Does it not seem right and
proper that our legislators give
heed to a matter of so great im
portance? One by one the nat
ural resources are- giving; out in
greater of lesser . degree before
the inroads of man. Effort is
made by those possessing a share
of these natural resources to
control home and foreign mark
ets and enrich themselves by so
doing and posterity inherits
nothing as a result. It seems
there is undue haste to sell to
the highest bidder the natural
resources of our land. Once all
gone, then what? '
mi i i
me present demands upon
these resources must in time ex
haust them.' They are necessary
to the future welfare of the
nation, and in view of this fact,
steps should be taken to the end
that they be safe-guarded. .They
are the inheritance of the nation
and man holds them more or less
intrust. ' .
The Greffoz Matter.
An adjourned session of the city coun
cil was held Saturday evening for the
express purpose of considering the Gref
foz matter. Ao is well known, E. P.
Griffoz, ex-police judgs of the City of
Corvallis, is short in his accounts in the
neighborhood of $2,000, and to settle this
matter, if possible, was the purpose of
the meeting.
At the meeting "all councilmen, save
Avery, Rennie and Oovell, were present,
with Mayor Johnson in the chair. Mr.
Greffoz was represented by Attorney
Hewitt, of Albany. Everything passed
off to the entire satisfaction of all pres
ent. The matter of making finai settle
ment was left to the ways am mean h
committee. " r
Another meeting was called for Thurs
day eveni g, at which time it is expecled
that the ways and means committee will
report a settlement of the matter and the
council will ratify the same. The steps
proposed and agreed upon by both parties
in the matter are such, if carried to con
summation, that the city will be paid in
full.

THE LJGHT OF OTHER DAYS.
Not verv many years ago alcohol was
used for lighting in combination with
other fluids under
the name of "Cam
phene," but it suf
fered banishment
because it was too
dangerous.
Alcohol is gener
ally harmful when
taken in the form
of medicine, espe
cially to a delicate
system.
Dr. Pierce's tis-gue-rebuildina
and
function-strengthening plan of treatment
is following after Nature's plan.
He uses natural remedies, that is native
medicinal roots, prepared by processes
wrought out by the expenditure of much
time and money, without the use of alco
hol, and by skillful combination in the
most exact proportions. :
Used as one of the active ingredients
of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
black ciikrbtbark specially exerts its
influence in cases of lung and bronchial
troubles, and this "discovery" is. there
fore, a sovereign remedy for bronchitis.
laryngitis, chronic coughs, catarrh ana
kindred ailments. -.
The name of the medicinal ingredients
of this world-famous remedy are: Golden
Seal root. Queen's root. Stone root,
Black Cherry bark, Bloodroot and. Man
drake root.
."ThflvA h.rt sur.h ft wonderful experience
with Dr. Pierce' s Golden Medical Discovery
that 1 do not hesitate to recommend it. be
lieving it to be a wonderful medicine to build
up the tissues of the system," writes Miss

Association. 436 Kerman Avenue, Appleton,

pletely run-down my health and strengtn;
had no appetite, slept badly, and was in a
state of nervous collapse. I took twelve
bottles in all, and, each week, knew that I
was setting better and stronger, until finally
I was as well ana strong as i nau ever ran.
I have the utmost faith and confidence in
your medicine, and wish to thank you for my
good health, which is a blessing to anyone."
