The delicate construction of this organ makes it neces sary to use great care in selecting eye glasses and spectacles. It is not generally understood by those depending on artificial assistance for good vision, that it requires as much scientific knowledge to adjust lenses to the eye as it does to prescribe medicines for the human system. Much of the present day eye trouble is due to wearing cheap, decentered lenses fitted ( ? ) by incompetents, or bought across the counter or from peddlers. W e cease to wonder at the magnitude of present day eye trouble, when we think of the thousands who are wear ing such glasses— lenses which change and distort the rays of light, producing innumerable eye ailments and defects. No person should wear a glass unless prescribed by a re liable specialist—one thoroughly acquainted with physiology and diseases of the eye, laws of light anatomy, and op tometry. See D r.

Finds Central Oregon Place for Homesteads Well pleased with the Central Oregon region, Edwin Bates, Jr., has returned to Portland, after filing on a homestead. He traveled about 150 miles by stage aud spent several days at Fort Rock, near which settlement he made a filing. He found the country well popu lated and the settlers well pleased by their first year’ s crop. He will make settlement this spring. Mr. Bates arrived at Fort Rock a few days after the killing by officers of C. E. Shaeffer, a turbulent set tler, who had been involved in sev eral difficulties. Shaeffer lived with his aunt on a ranch neat Fort Rock. He beat up a homesteader aud when officers went to the house to arrest him, two remained outside while one entered. The two out side covered him with rifles. Shaef fer is alleged to have started for his gun. The officers fired through the window, killing him. The aunt then grabbed a gun and began shooting She emptied the maga zine into the darkness but failed to hit the officers, who then arrested her. She was ordered to leave the country.

Resigns a3 Alderm an Saying CASH FOR CASH W e Sell Cheaper, That’ s Why COUNCIL SCRAP CONTINUES Alderman John Osborne has re signed his office, having filed notice with City Recorder Devore. If the resignation is accepted, the mayor may appoint a successor. Discussing his resignation, Os borne said he desired to avoid taking sides in the recent dispute in coun cil over the question of authority. As he expressed it he proposed to get out “ while the going was good. ” Alderman Jones who lias been served with notice of removal from the police committee, declines to abdicate, claiming Mayor Reed has uo right to depose him without just cause. Jones says the mayor hasn’ t proved a case against him. When at the adjourned regulai meeting of the city council last Thursday evening, Mayor Reed served notice upon Alderman Jones deposing him as a member of the police committee and appointing Alderman Hawkins in his stead, Jones promptly denied executive authority and declared he would continue to serve. Then ensued a warm exchange between the mayor at.d the alderman, in which person alities figured, much to the amuse ment of a big crowd in attendance. Stripped of verbiage, the issues were joined on the question of usur pation of authority, each accusing the other. Jones claimed the ordi nance gave the committee authority over the marshal aud the mayor read a section of the ordinance giv ing him absolute supervision over subordinate officers. The mayor said he was of the opinion that he and Marshal Ames would have worked in harmony had it not been for interference by A l derman Jones. Jones hotly denied that he was the only one to be blamed and said the mayor was placing too much credence in ru mor. ‘ ‘Well, I have confidence in the reports brought to me of what you have said” said the mayor, “ and I know some of the things you have done." “ Whatever I have done I stand for,” retorted Jones. Alderman Lindsey was named to supplant Alderman Underwood as member of the street committee. Attornev E. W. Bartlett address ed the council in behalf of the E s tacada Realty Co., with reference to extending the water mains through Terrace addition. The city charter apparently conflicted with the new state law, but the law yer contended that the council had the right to make the extension outside the corporate limits. W. Cary also addressed the council along the same line. Mayor Reed appointed Alderman Hawkins, Un derwood aud Lindsey to investigate and report, the committee to con- sult City Recorder Devore.________ A I Fruit Trees Our Big Stock of Furniture NURSERY and Queensware Livery, Feed STABLE Handy Tools Handy Articles Alderman Jones Denies Mayor’s Power to Depose Him From Committee Haw kins Appointed in His Place Odd Fellows Building Our 5-10-15- Counters I OR H e W ould A void Row About th e H ouse Asbestos Mats.......................... 5c Tea Pot Stands....................... 5c Dover Pattern Egg Beaters... 8c Savory Roasters......................95c Patent Crank Flour Sifters... 10c Dust Pans................................. 8c Can Openers............................... 5c Sure Catch mouse traps, 2 for 5c Sure Catch rat traps................ 10c Brass King wash boards....... 30c Glass King wash boards....... 30c Clothespins, doz................... 2c Lamp chimneys, 8c, 2 for..... 15c Bench Screws..................... 60c No. 7 shovels........................ 70c 4 Tine Heavy Forks Spading ......................... 85c No. 109 Garden Rakes................. 30c No. 115 13 Tooth Steel Bow Rakes................... 60c Genuine Morrill Hand Saw Sets................................ 95c Morrill Pattern Saw Set................ 35c Standard Mattocks............. 65c Hunts Mattocks................... $1.2 5 Gem Mail B o x es 7 5 cts Black Jack stove polish......... 10c EGGS Going Down, Down Sugar Going Up!
