THE MUCH LIBELED DOG.
Thee lines are dedicated to the
dog, faithful in his devotion to Hie
human animal, a friend who never be
trays and never forgets a kindness.
Ill sickness and health, in prosperity
Wid adversity his affliction is the
same. When others forsake I lie ilias
tter, when he becomes a social and
financial outcast, when misfortune
frowns upon him and llie human hy
pocrils who once called themselves
his friends have turned their backs
upon his poverty, Hie dog remains
faithful lo the end and his loyally
is only measured by his ability to
serve.
lie who has never known (he boy
hood joy of a lion's companionship,
who has never turned lo his canine
playmate in hours of childhood dis
tress and found holh sympathy and
comfort, has missed something in life
which is really worth while. Hut he
who has really enjoyed 1 1 1 i s privilege
and who therefore knows, and can
apprccialc Hie pleasure it brings lo
the liltle folks llllisl necessarily be a
friend of dumb animals.
Ingratitude, lack of loyally and false
friendships are numbered anions the
unforgivable vices of the human fam
ily. They have caused more heart
aches and sorrows than a hundred
wars, yel the poor, maligned ami much
libeled dog has none of the frail
ties. He is more human than many
of those who have been endowed by
their creator with the shape and form
of mail.
If the Democrat were to rewrite a
iiolaliou from a well known author
anil make it applicable to present day
conditions, it would read, "Man's in
humanity to animals should make a
stronger and more lasting impression
upon those who believe in dculiiiK ol"
exact justice to dumb brutes as well
as to the human species."

SAVING SOULS IN NEW HAVEN
In the September Woman's Home
Companion Ralph Waldo Trine writes
an article on the "Value of a College
Education" in which he says that the
average college student has liltle or
no sympathy for the unreal, the te
dious or the questionable, and goes
on to say:
"Things have got to be made vital.
They must have the ring of the gen
uine. Many are familiar with the
story that is often told, at New Ha
ven. A pic. idler was lo address the
student body ill the chapel. Shortly
belore the appointed time he asked
the president of the university whe
ther the lime for his address would
be limited. 'Oh, no,' was the pres
ident's reply, 'speak as long as you
like, bin there is a tradition here at
Yale chapel that no souls are sacd
after t u enty minutes "

CITY'S COMPLAINT
IS HARD PRESSED!
Gas People Attack Amended
Complainl and Deny All
Allegations.
ANSWER WAS FILED IN
COURT THIS MORNING
Franchise Was Alleged Illegal
Because It Was Passed at
Same Session.
Eiling an answer to an amended
complaint instituted against them by
the city of Albany, W. If. Guldrick
and the Title Guaranty & Suerty
company, admit, deny and allege var
ious allegations but pray that the
amended complaint lie dismissed and
that they recover from the plaintiff,
their costs and disbursements.
The case arose over the grunting of
gas franehine September 27, 1911, for
which the defendants gave bond,
which was declared forfeited after the
alleged specified time, when the de
fendants failed to fulfilf the obliga
tions set up.
In their answer the defendants de
ny generally each and every allega
tion contained in the .plafn tiff's
amended complaint but admit that
the Title Guaranty & Surety Co. is
a corporation under the laws of
Pennsylvania.
It is alleged that the ordinance
passed by the council granting the
franchies is void, invalid and of no
legal effect whatever, because it was
passed at the same session of the
council, which were held contrary to
the statutes of the state of Oregon.
It is further alleged that any accep
tance of the ordinance or any bond
given guaranteeing the performance
of its provisions was an attempted
acceptance and promise of an illegal
paper. It is also alleged that var
ious provisions of the franchise are
in direct violation of the laws of
the state which further makes it void,
invalid and illegal.

HOTEL AT BELKNAP
HOT SPRINGS SOON
Owner cf Great Mountain Re-
sort Announces Extensive
Improvements.
EIGHTEEN NEW BATH
ROOMS ARE TO BE BUILT
Lumber on Ground for .Some
of These Buildings to Be
Erected Soon.
A new iwo-story hotel, a dancing
pavilion, twenty cottages for the ac
commodation of campers and a new
bath house containing eighteen rooms
are the improvements planned at Uel
knap Springs, bl miles east of Eu
gene on the upper Mcivenzie river,
says the Eugene Guard.
Howard Hawk, of 1'ortland, one
of the owners ot the resort, visited
the springs last week and announced
that these improvements will be
made, the work to begin at once.
Lumber for the buildings is now be
ing sawed at a mill on the Yale place
a mib from the springs.
A hotel is the one thing lacking at
ih is resort to make it one of the most
popular watering places on the Pa
cific Coast. Belknap Springs could
easily rival I Lot Springs, Ark., and
other famous resorts of the country
with Uic expenditure of a consider
able sum of money in improvements
and with the building of a railroad
from Eugene. The camping grounds
there are ideally situated. Nature
seems to have had in mind a summer
resort when it caused boiling hot wat
er to gush forth from the mountain
rocks at this place. It provided a
level tract of several acres in extent
just across the river from the springs,
and it i on this flat that the camps
and hath houses are suituated and
where the new hotel will be erected.
A rustic bridge spans the river and
connects the camping grounds with
the springs. The hot water is also
conveyed in troughs on this bridge
from the springs to the bath house
and the swimming pool.
Lumber is on the ground at the
present time for the erection of the
20 cottages. Work on these struc
tures will begin at once and they will
be completed by the time the season
opens next year. Another big im
provement to be commenced this fall
after the pleasure-seekers shall have
left will be the erection of the new
bath house to take the place of the
old one which has been in use for
many years. The new house will
contain 18 rooms, all fitted with up-to-date
sanitary tubs and other fix
tures. This will be a great improve
ment over the present arrangement.
Manager Ernset Sloan also an
nounces the immediate erection of a
commodious dancing pavilion.
WANTS COURT TO MAKE AN
ACCOUNTING DF PARTNERSHIP
A. B. Williams Files Charges
Against Former Partner
Charles McGougan.
Alleging that Charles McGougan
has appropriated $5700, for his own
personal use, belonging to a part
nership between them, A. B. Wil
liams has filed suit in the circuit court
for an accounting.
According to the complaint, the
two men entered into a partnership
July 1. 1908. for the purpose of pur
chasing lands to plant orchards and
other agricultural products. Each
ms the owner oi an undivided one
half interest, both advancing money
and performing services for the con
cern until April 13, 1912, when the
partner-hip was dissolved. The con
cern was located at Medford.
The plaintiff asserts in the com
plaint that by an agreement between
himself and the defendant, the latter
was to collect in all money due the
concern at the time of its dissolution.
This it is claimed was done to the
extent of approximately the above
amout but it is charged that the dc
tendant has failed to turn over the
amount due the plaintiff. Attorneys
Weathcford and Wcatbefrord repre
sent the plaintiff.
