But we have hammered away night and day for 16 consecutive years at the pre- (
scription counter with the result of having attained the largest prescription file in
the county. There’s a reason for this. Anyone can dish out patent medicines, but
when it comes to filling prescriptions you want a competent man at the tiller, so to <
speak, with a clear eye and a clear head -in fact, a man who realizes that a human
life baugs in the balance. We do this; it’s our specialty.

The mass meeting Thursday evening
of last week, called for the purpose of
discussing the questions |>ertaining to
McMinnville's electric light plant, was
largely attended by the taxpayers of the
city. Superintendent Sliger submitted a
report, wherein he showed that with the
expenditure of the sum oi $4,000 the city
could place in ojteration a complete sys
tem of arc and incandescent lights, with
sufficient power to operate the same sue
cessfttlly. E. Cannon, representing Hie
Northwest Engineering Co , submitted
some prices and plans, and upon a vote
being taken, those present declared
unanimously lhal "it is the sense of tho
meeting that the council proceed to pur
chase a combination inductive dynamo,
of sufficient capacity to furnish 1200 in
candescent and 35 arc lights, and two
new boilers.” Friday evening the coun
cil met and received bids from the North
west Electric Co. and from the General
Electric Co. of Portland. The bid of the
first named company was accepted, ft
calls for a 1200 light Warren-Mcdbury
inductor dynamo of 1000 volt and 16,000
alternations, with extras complete, and
20 standard alternating arc lamj«, for
the suut of $2,418.50. The representative
of this company further agreed to furnish
free att armature or dynamo for oper
ating the present system, except the
street lights, until the new dynamo
could be furnished, which could not be
earlier than December 15th. According
ly he shipped an armature, but it did
not jit, and the city has Iteeit without
lights, pending the repair of the old dy
namo. It is hoped that tonight the
lights will be available for inside service.
