The making of hollow cement block is an industry that, has been started within tht* last few years and leaped in to popularity for u.l kinds of building w ith »^rapidity' th at thoroughly estab lishes their worth and the estimation in which they are held by architects. In fact you now hard I v see a residence put up in the larger towns making any pre tensions to picturesque architecture or elegance hut what such blocks are used in some way in its construction. They give most any house an air of distinct ion and solidity th at is hard to acquire in any other way. And the various uses to which they may la* put are almost end less. They take the place of stone in every way and at a much cheaper cost, w hile practically filling all the require ments of such. The nearest factory we know of is at St. Johns, hut we hear one is soon to he put in at Newberg. Centrally located as is Dallas, and having tributary t<» it an immense scope of country in w hich there will la* much building be done each year, the Itemizer believes th at it would he a paying in vestment for someone to put in a plant of this kind here. The necessary capi tal is not large, and we believe that the trade th at could soon he worked up would he sufficient to keep several men constantly employed. The blocks sell at the St. Johns factory at 50 cents each, hut the freight adds a third to this, eaused by their having to be trans ferred from one road to another. We believe there are cement workers right here in Dallas capable of making as _o* d ¡»lock as they can anywhere, ail they need being the various mould ers »or the different commercial sizes, etc. Let’s have a factory of this kind.

Morton, of Bunin, Wyoming, is visiting at the home of K. II. Sicka- toose, in .lonm outh. Mr. Morton is paying the coast a visit with the inten tion of locating and will establish him self in the banking business. Indej>endence is to In? eongratu ated on having one of the best orchestras in the state outside of Portland. It is doubtful if there is another town of its equal >n population tl^at can boast of any kind of musical organization worth mentioning, not only in the state, but on the coast. H. E. Conger, tormelv of this place, hut now of Medford, was looking after business m atters here the fore part of this week. He report*! business rushing in his part of the state and real estate transfers plentiful. This is the result of judicial publicity and Independence can profit by the example set by her neighbors. T. J. Fryer, one of the largest local livestock shippers of this section of the county, has just returned from a visit with his daughter at Castle Bock, W ashington. He shipped a car of m ut ton sheep to Portland last week and ac companied them to their destination and from there went on to Castle Hock. Mr. Fryer reports m utton us being very scarce and California buyers scouring t be upper valley for all that are for sale. A very pretty home wedding took place Wednesday evening at the resi dence of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Dickinson, when their daughter. Gertrude Mabel, was united in marriage to Hoy W. Bullard; the cer emony being performed by Rev. .). A. P. McGau. The bride was attired in a handsome gown of white satin with duchess lace, and carried a shower bo- quet of white flowers. The ceremony took place under green canopied with white flowers, green and white being the color scheme of the bridal parlors. The wedding supper table and dining room were beautiful in white and green. Only relatives of the bride and bride groom were present. Mr. and Mrs. Peter K urre gave a din ner Sunday, February 25, in honor of their son Charles Kurre and wife, who were recenly married and are hero visit ing with relatives and friends. A gen eral good tim e was had by all present, Tut the feature of the evening was the observance of the tim e honored custom of the older member of the family danc ing in the pig trough, when he was left single after the youngest had taken up the double burden of life. This fell to the lot of George Kurre, who is the sur viving single m em ber of the Kurre fam ily. At first he dem urred, but the per- susasive eloquence of the ladies finally prevailed and he gracefully submitted to the inevitable. It is said th at it was not his fault, this being leap year and he lias had no proposals, therefor the young ladies should be blamed more than he, for no doubt he would have ac cepted had the proposal been made and then he would have escaped the danc ing. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Reeves, Mr. and Mrs. Claud Kurre, Mr. and Mrs. Willie K urre, Mr. and Mrs. Bullock, Mrs. Quincy Reeves anil little son, Mrs. Chetlet, George Kurre, Maggie Evans, Lee Whitcomb, Alvi Lockridge, W illard Reeves, Eva Huston, Miss Snyder, Nellie Kurre.

WARE AT REDUCED PRICES COMFORTING WORDS Many a Dallas Household Will Find Them so. To have the pains and aches of a bad hack removed : to be entirely free from annoying, dangerous urinary disorders is enough to make any kidney sufferer grateful. To tell how this great change can be brought about will prove com forting words to hundreds of Dallas readers. Mrs. Jos. W hitford, living in Inde pendence, Ore.. says: “ Doan’s Kidney Pills helped my husband a great deal when he was suffering from kidney complaint and backache. At times he would be so stiff and lame, that he was hardly able to move and if he attem pt ed to do so. sharp pains would catch him in the kidney regions. The kidney secretions wen* disordered, so freque it in action as to force him to arise many times during tin* night. He procured a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills, began their use and noticed a change for the better in a abort time. He is glad t" give Doan's Kidney Pills his recommenda tion.” HOME PROOF - There is plenty of local testimony like the above.
