DALLAS, OREGON, August 24, 1906 The way to build up Dallas ts to pat ronize Dallas people. "J"" ' ' "Xmw IMPROVED MACHINERY. In all the years the Observer has been under its present management, it has been the constant aim of the owner to keep tho paper and the office equipment up to the needs of the town We have endeavored at all times to keep pace with the progress of the community In which we are located, and on occasions have even made im provements which existing business conditions would not warrant, when judged strictly from the standpoint of Immediate profit to the business office These improvements, however, were always made for the betterment of our newspaper or to enable us to produce a larger and better class of job print ing, and it is with satisfaction that we reflect that in every instance the ultimate results attained fully justified the Increased investment. Fourteen j'ears ago, the Observer newspaper was printed on a press that produced only 150 papers an hour. Seven years later, a machine with a capacity or 500 complete papers an hour was installed. Last night we stood in the press room and saw the papors coming from the press at the rate of 2000 an hour, each printed as perfectly as it is possible to print a paper on any machine known to the trade at the present day. Such speed is not necessary in the office at the present time, save in job printing, and it is probable that the newspaper will be printed at the rate of 1500 an hour, which will require only 40 min utes' time to turn out the entire edition. Last night's trial run was made for tho purpose of demonstrating the capacity of the new machine. It is safe to assert that no such speed was ever attained on any newspaper press in l'olk county before. The Observer office is now equipped in every department for turning out any line of first-class printing that may be offered. The job printing de partment has long been provided with superior facilities for producing all grades of commercial and society printing, and the customers of this office have been furnished exactly the same class of work that is produced by the best printiug houses in the large cities. Tho claim of "a city printing offlco in the best country town in Oregon" has been made good by duplicating at any time any city job offered. With tho Improved press facilities, we will be able to turn out all kinds of book and poster printing in addition to the regularlineof work. It is hardly necessary to say that we are proud of our well equipped office. We think there is no better country printing office in Oregon, and if there is a more handsomely furnished office in tho United States in a town tho size of Dallas, we have neverseen it. Weinviteourcustomers and friends to call and see tho new machinery in operation, assuring them that they will be welcome to visit the press room at any timo that suits their convenience. Hinshaw-Seward. Mr. Isaac Hinshaw, of WTheeler county, and Miss Beatrice Seward, of Baliston, Tolk county, were married at the home of Mr. and Mrs. O. W. Hinshaw in Dallas, Tuesday, August 21, 1900, at 12 o'clock Rev. C. H. Davis, pastor of the First Baptist Church officiating. Only the members of the family were present The worthy young people have the be8t wishes of many friends in their new relation. Build Sawdust Burners. Both the Johnson and Willamette Valley Company sawmills are prepar ing to put in large burners to care for the waste sawdust, slabs, and other refuse. These furnaces will be about 40 feet high and constructed of con crete and fire-brick. The disposal of the waste from the mills has been a serious problem to the owners, as the electric power station has consumed only a small portion of the sawdust. The new furnaces will be completed in about 30 days. Ex-Governor Geor denies that there is any political significance in his purchase of an interest in tho Peiidlo tou Tribune. He says the conclusion of a Portland puperthathe was taking the step with tho object of boosting himself for United States Senator later was far-fetched. Mr. Geerthinks apolitical aspirant's own newspaper is a mighty poor booster. A largo majority of editors who havo tried for office will bo inclined to agree with him. Hon. Ben Jones, tho well-known lawyer and legislator of Independence, has all kinds of provocation for beginning damago suits against a number of newspapers, whose editors will persist that ho is the Joues that is being tried for complicity in tho Oregon land frauds. Tho real de fendant is Wiilard J. Joues, a former member of Multnomah county, and not the inepressiblo B. F. of Polk and Lincoln. Many folk county people a re attend ing the Street Fair in Tillamook this week, and it goes without saying that all of them will enjoy their visit to the "land of milk and honey." No hop contracts reported in Oregon sineo Kirkputikk made that 22-cvnt offer. Hood s Sarsa par ilia is unquestiona bly the greatest blood and liver medicine known. It positively and permanently cures every humor, from Pimples to Scrofula. It is Blood Medicine. Returns to Portland. C. N. McArthurhas decided not to engage in the practice ol law in Baker City, and will return to Portland, where a good position awaits him in the law office of Snow & McCamant, He had been offered a partnership in the office of John L. Band, one of the leading lawyers of Baker City, and had gone to that place to accept it, when a more profitable proposition was made to him by the Portland firm with whom he read law. Mr. McArthur will be glad to see his Polk county friends any time they are in the city, at his office in the Concord building. McAIIister.Repass. Mr. E. S. McAllister and Mrs. Cora Repass were married at the latter's home in Dallas, Monday evening at 7:30 o'clock. Justice Hardy Holraan pronounced the ceremony that made them husband and wife. Mr. Mc Allister has been in the employ of the Falls City Lumber Company, and his wife has been a resident of Dallas for many years, After a brief honey moon at Newport, they will begin housekeeping in Cottage Grove. Make Merry at Newport. On Monday last, a merry crowd of Dallas people at Newport went to the lighthouse to spend the day. The party was given in honor of August Risser, bookkeeper for the Dallas firm of Ellis & Keyt. In the evening a sailing trip to Yaquina City and re turn was enjoyed. The outing was declared a decided success by those participating. The members of the party were Misses Joe Martin, Ruth VanOrsdel, Pauline VanOrsdel, Mabel Guy, August Risser, Carl Fenton, Earl Burk, Robbie and Clark Van Orsdel. State Fair Campers. There i3 every indication of fine weather for Oregon State Fair week, September 10-15. This kind of weather means that these camp grounds will bo crowded and that the late comers will have to go to the old grounds northeast of there. Tell your friends to go early and have their tents in position. Space cannot be reserved after Tuesday of Fair week, if that long. The crowds are going. If you cannot get there before Tuesday of Fuir week, have your tent there and up. It will save you trouble and annoyance. Remember, that fine weather means over 1500 tents on this campground. Come early. Mrs. Casey Entertains. Mrs. B. Casey entertained a few friends at her home Wednesday after noon in honor of her sisters, Misses Elizabeth and Rose Parrott, of Rose burg, who are visiting her. The afternoon was spent in playing "000" and Mrs. H. C. Eakin received a prize for winning the highest number of games. Mrs. Casey is a delightful entertainer, and nothing was left un done to add to the pleasure of her guests. The house was beautifully decorated with ferns, roses and sweet peas. Delicious refreshments were served. Those present were: Mrs. I. N. Woods, Mrs. E. C. Kirkpatrick, Mrs. H. C. Eakin, Mrs. S. C. Miller, Mrs. B. Casey, Miss Orlene Hutton, of Portland, Miss Elizabeth Parrott and Miss Rose Parrott, of Roseburg, Miss Emma Dempsey and Miss Meda Holman. Tliey Stand Alone.

CRUSHED BY HEAVY TIMBER James Alderman Sustains Severe In. ternal Injuries by Falling of Hay Derrick. James Alderman , aged about 37 years, received a complication of injuries, internally and otherwise, through the collapse of a huge hay stacking derrick on the Donahoe place, five miles north of Salem, in Polk county, yesterday afternoon, which, if they do not prove fatal will incapacitate him from further physical exertions for several weeks to come. He is now receiving treatment, under the care of Dr. J. N. Smith, at the Salem hospital. A crew of men were engaged in hoisting a hay-stacking derrick on the Donahoe place, better known as the old Plumb place, yesterday after noon. When the three huge timbers, forty-eight feet long, reached a height of about sixteen feet the rope broke and the timbers fell directly upon Alderman and crushed him to the ground with their weight. Upon ex amination it was found that he had sustained the fracture of several ribs and other injuries to his back and internally, the exact nature of which cannot bedetermined and his condition is regarded as critical by the attending physicians. Mr. Alderman is a single man and a brother of William A. Alderman, the carpenter, who resides iu North Salem. Statesman. Special train to Falls City for the Woodman Ball to morrow night.
