NEWS NOTES GATHERED FROM
VARIOUS PARTS OF OREGON
WOULD AVENO STATE LAWS.
Attorney General Crawford Suggests
Three Changes.
Salem In his biennial report to the
legislature, Attorney General Crawford
makes three recommendatioi a concern
ing new legislation :
That the school funds be made sub
ject to the deposit law, so that when
deposited in a bank by the state treas
urer they will be secured by bonds;
that a law be enacted by which titles
to the use of water for irrigation or
power may be definitely ascertained
and protected, and that provision be
made for the registration of legal vot
er who may happen to be temporarily
out of the state.
The first measure was shown to be
necessary after the failure of the
Title Guarantee & Trust company
bank, though the fact that there is
but $11,000 in the common school fund
at present indicates no urgent need for
the law at this time.
The purpose of the second measure
is to prevent waste of water and en
courage development of irrigation en
terprises. The third measure was proven ne
cessary when Senator Fulton and Con
gressmen liawley and Ellis were com
pelled to come from Washington dur
ing a session of congress to register bo
that they could become candidates for
re-election.

Hood Rivtr Will Be Well Represented
at Big Show.
Hood River W. II. Wehrung, presi
dent, and M. W. Wisdom, secretary,
of the Oregon commission of the
Alaska-Yukon-l'acific exposition, were
here a few daya ago and addressed a
meeting of the Hood River Commercial
club directors, who have decided to
place a county exhibit of 200 boxes of
apples at the Seattle fair. This is in
addition to 600 boxes of fruit which
the commission purchased for the state
exhibit.
The county exhibit will be made by
the county court and the local commer
cial club jointly and will consist of
the finest apples that can be obtained
in the valley. These will be selected
at ance and sent to the commission,
which will place them in cold storage
at the plant which they have erected
on the" exposition grounds at Seattle.
It is the intention to handle the fruit
so as to have a permanent Hood Hiver
county exhibit at the fair during the
entire time it is open, as the fruit that
will be put in cold storage now will
be supplemented with a shipment of
apples as soon as they are in condition
next fall. The county display calls
for an exhibit of 20 boxes end 50
plates, which will be kept replenished
from the stock in cold storage.
Finish Cattle at Milton.
Milton Feeders are finishing more
cattle at the Hudson Hay ranches, 10
miles from here, this winter than have
been fed in many years. There is
plenty of alfalfa hay this season and
hundreds of tons were left over from
last season. With this supply of feed
the section has become the feeding
ground for a number of men who are
marketing stock in Seattle. O. I).
Gibson has driven over 600 head to the
grounds, most of them fine 3-year-old
steers. As fast as they are finished
they will be sent to the slaughter
houses on the coast.
Hindus Causing Trouble.
Astoria The Hindu colony that has
gained a foothold in ' Astoria during
the past few years is gradually becom
ing a disturbing element and causing
trouble in the lower part of the city.
Recently Officer Linville found it nec
essary to arrest one, who gave his
name as John Shanan, and he showed
fight. In addition to this a number of
his countrymen followed up the street
in a threatening attitude as the Hindu
was being taken to jail.
Oregon It Out of Debt.
Salem Oregon has no state debt,
bonded or otherwise. This is one of
the first facta stated in the biennial re
port of State Treasurer Steel just
issued. There is in the treasury a
cash balance of $658,320.15, of which
$214,897.98 is in the general fund - an
amount sufficient to pay state expenses
until next March, when taxes for 1909
will be paid.
Fruit Commissioner Named.
Salem Millard O. Lownsdale. of
Lafayette, fruit inspector for Yamhill
couny, has been appointed fruit com
missioner in the First district to suc
ceed James H. Keid. of Milwaukie,
who recently resigned. Mr. lowns
dale during his short term of office as
fruit inspector has proved to be an ag
gressive and competent official.
Salmon Season Failure.
Astoria Fall fishing has Wen near
ly abandoned on all parts of the river.
The catches of the gillnetters have not
been large enough to justify their con
tinuing. The fallVeason has Wen a
dismal failure from start to finish and
no claa of gear has made any money.
The same is true of the few canneries
that have operated.
Buy Big lUnd Tidel.tnds.
Astoria W. F. McGregor has sold
240 acres of tideland on llig island, at
Blind Slough, to the Astoria Abstract,
Title & Trust company for a considera
tion of $5,000. It is understood the
entire island is being purchased for
parties who will dike it and thus cre
ate a valuable tract of farming land.

Medicines containing Mercury are often given to persons suffering with
Contagious Elood Poison, and so powerful is the action of this druj that it
frequently removes the symptoms in a short while, and shuts the disease
up in the system to do greater damage to the delicate Internal members.
When, however, the treatment is left off. the disease always returns, and the
patient finds that his health has been injured by this powerful mineral, anj.
he is often left with weak stomach, disturbed digestion, mercurial theuma
tism, etc. The action of S. S. S. is entirely different. It contains no
Mercury, nc any other harmful drug, but is made entirely of heulinj,
cleansing roots and herbs. It cures Contagious Blood Poison by removing
the virus from the blood. It searches out every particlef the poison
and does not leave the least tra?e for future outbreaks. S. S. S., in
addition to curing the disease, builds up and strengthens every part of the
body. Its fine tonic effects tone up the 6tomach and digestion, improve the
appetite and regulate the entire system. Home treatment book containing
valuable information about the different stages of the disease and any
medical advice desired sent free to all who write.

"The underlying reason why so much
tiuie tiHualljr elapses between the filing
of petition and the heurlnK or trial la
divorce proceedings Is not generally un
derstood," remarked a lawyer who
makes a sjK'eiaity of this character of
practice. ."Perhaps It is within the cir
cle of truth to say that In a majority
of cases, If either husband or wife,
whichever side be plaintiff, should 'stop,
iok. and listen,' as It were, the trouble
would be adjusted out of court entirely.
"As a rule, Jr'ige are Inclined to
afford ample time for domestic partners
to ponder well before pursuing further
toward legal red reus for matrimonial
dltllcultles. 'Divorce lu haste and re
pent at leisure' Is a logical paraphrase.
Of course, If after mature reflection a
dlfft rent opinion does not ensue, the av
erage Jurist would favor progressing
the suit."
