Polk County Observer ALLGOOD & COLLINS LESSEES Fubllihed Semi-Weekly t 11.50 per Year. Strictly in Advance. when the full tide of eastern immi gration and inward flowing capital reaches Oregon later In the season, and they probably presage one of the most prosperous years that Polk county has yet known. Entered as econd-cIasi matter March 1, 1907, at the poat office at Dallaa, Oregon, under the Act oi Congress ol March 3, 179. DALLAS, OREGON, MaECH 23, 1909 The way lo build up Dallas is to pat ronize Dallas people. THE COMING ELECTION. With only a little more than a week remaining in which petitions may be nied, bufjive candidates have form ally appeared for the city elections which will be held April 6. All are good, representative men and men well calculated to serve the Interests of our city In a careful and efficient manner, if the people see fit to elect them. There still remain, however, a number of offices for which no candidate hag yet filed his petition and the ticket for the city elec tion remains therefore, incomplete. J.ne selection of a good and efficient Council is just as vitally important to us as citizens of Dallas, as the selec tion of county officers is important to ua as citizens of Polk county. The demand is equally urgent in our city eieotiou as in our county election, that the best and most competent men be brought out, and it behooves us to see ttiut the remainder of the now incom plete city ticket be filled before the close of the time in which the petitions may be Clod. Between 6000 and 6000 immigrants will probably make their homes in the Willamette Valley within the next six months. This at least is predicted by many who have noted the eager ness with which Easterners are already taking advantage of the colonists rates westward. A cer- i tain proportion of tfiese will come to Polk county and to Dallas. Just how j great or how small that proportion j shall be rests with us. Practically ! every community in the Willamette ! Valley Is now thoroughly imbued with j the spirit of publicity, or as the popu-1 lar phrase has it, "boosting." Sur- j rounded by counties and cities that! are eagerly thrusting forth their var-! lous merits to the prospective settler, i Polk county and the cities of Polk 1 county cannot afford to be silent. It is ' up to thera to get Into line and do the 1 same, if they desire their share of the new and desirable population that is now coming Into Oregon.

DALLAS, OREGON During the past year have you been absolutely satisfied with all your gro- ceries-your teas and coffee, your bul- tT, canned goods and flavoring extracts? Can you truthfully answer yes? These things are all within the con- trol of the merchant, and as long as painstaking care is exercised in their selection, you are pretty certain to get nrsl class quality and flavor. We do not claim to be perfection- we are only human and sometimes make mistakes-but there isn't a store in town that strives more faithfully to have its customers absolutely satis fled, or that will to gladly and quickly rertify mistake. W Wm i I favor to have an error called to our attention, and to have aoy goods re turned that are not everything they should be is quality ,nd fre.hness.
