that have occurred in the logging anv herd in the state.
camps near Falls City, Mill Creek
and other places in western Polk
Couuty of late, give ample testimony
to the wisdom of the movement to
establish a hospital In this city.
Situated as it is, Dallas is in prompt
and direct communication with nearly
all of those places where accidents
resulting in serious and fatal injury
to the laborers in the camps and mills,
are most likely to occur. A hospital
located here will afford to the
unfortunate victims of the accidents
(which are usually unavoidable) that
occur with such frequency, prompt
nnd adequate care. The result will be
less fatality resulting from mill and
camp accidents nnd less danger of
injured men becoming permanently
maimed or disabled. This phase alone,
aside from the numerous otherfeatures
that may be suggested, stamps the
enterprise as a worthy one and
bespeaks for it the support of all the
citizeus, not of Dallas alone, but of
the entire western half of Polk county.
Accidents in Logging Camps.
Tom Thrasher, a laborer in the log
ging camps above Black Rock, was
caught under a rolling log yesterday
and the bone in his right leg broken.
The fracture Is not complicated and a
rapid recovery is expected. Dr. A. B.
Starbuck who attended him returned
from Black Rock this morning. He
reports that Al Layton, who was in
jured last, week, is doing as well as
could be expected considering the
extent of his hurts. Mr. Layton was
caught in one of the lines from
the donkey engine and thrown
to and fro, with great violence, his
body being severely bruised in a num
ber of places and one of his ribs
shattered. A number of accidents of
a less serious nature have also
occurred in the camps within the past
few days.

fully Answer Yes?
During the past year have you been
absolutely satisfied with all your gm
ceties your teas and coffee, your but
ter, canned goods and flavoring
extracts?
Can you truthfully answer yes?
These things are ail within the con
trol of the merchant, and as long as
painstaking care is exercised in their
selection, you are pretty certain to get
first 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 so gladly and quickly
rectify a mistake. We deem it
favor to have an error called to our
attention, and to have any goods re
turned that are not everything they
should be in quality and freshness.
