A oARp To THE FARMERS.

When the East Side Railroad was being
built, at Albany. some unsofsticated gentle
men were induced by the Railroad company
to buiId Mammoth Warehouse" at the
depot-the Railroad Company asserting all
the while that noswitch would be built to the
river warehouses The farmers consulted
their best interests and stored their grain on
the river, whereupon the Railroad Company
built switch TO the river, thus leaving the
!" Mammoth Warehouse" out in the cold
Moral-Railroad companies will do what
ever it is their interest to do-don't you
forget 1T.
am considerably of the opinion that the
farmers can cause switch to be built to
the river this fall by simply storing ON the
river. In any event, with the advantages
of competition among steamboat men which
has already reduced freight to 81 so per
ton, with the advantages of the millers along
the river to compete with the Portland
buyers-and with capital ready to buy yonr
wheat as soon as it is threshed, we can
trust the R. K. company to build = side
track as soon as we are needing it very
badly. Respectfully,
JAS. A. CAUTHoRN.

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

No people in the world suffer as much
with Dyspepsia as Americans. Although
years of experience in medicine had failed
to accomplish certain and sure remedy for
this disease and it's effects, such as Sour
Stomach, HEARTBURN, Water-brash. Sick
Headache. Costiveness. ?alpitation of the
Heart, Liver Complaint, coming up of the
food, low spirits, general debility, etc, yet
since the introduction of GREENS AUGUST
FLOWER we believe there is no case Of Dys-
pepsia that cannot be Immediately relieved.
10000 dozen sold last year without one case
of failure reported. Go to your Druggist
and get a Sample Bottle for 10 cents and try
it. Two doses will relieve you. Regular
size IS cents.

The OREGON KIDNEY TEA,

thy citizens of Oregon, whose names written
with their own hands, can be seen at our
office:
Independence, Or, Dec. l3, 1879.
Both myself and wife have been for some
years afflicted with disease of the Kidneys.
and had tried many remedies without OBJ
tanning any permanent relief. About three
months ago we were induced to try pack
age of the OREGON KIDNEY TEA, which has
apparently entirely cured both of us, as
since taking it two weeks we have felt no
symptoms Of the disease. We can heartily
recommend it to others similarly afflicted,
as we believe it will do all that is claimed
for it. M. L. WHITE.
Astoria, Or. Dec. %, l879
I take pleasure in testifying to the merits
of the OREGON KIDNEY TEA. For the past
three years have been suffering from Kid
ney troubles. and during the time have tried
nearly every kind of Kidney medicine in
the market, almost without any relief. Hav-
ing heard that the OREGON KIDNEY TEA
possessed wonderful properties, purchased
package, and from the first dose obtained
relief, and by the use Of the one package
feel completely cured. SAM'L GRAY.

A CUTTING AFFAlR-On last Saturday
evening. just after dark, considerable ex-
citement was created in town, by the report
that man had been assaulted and robbed
in the lower part Of town. On making in
quiry, we found that Mr.. Collins, who lives
on Soap creek had been in town ali day and
had started home, little the worse for
liquor, and when just below the M. E.
church, on Second street, was assaulted by
two men, supposed to be persons that he
had had difficulty with few hours before.
The result was, that Collins was pretty
severely beaten, and cut with knife in
several places about the head and face. 1t
was quite dark and the assaulting parties
were not recongnized, but no attempt was
made to rob Collins, so the difficulty must
have been the result of former quarrel.
DR.. Lee was called and after the wounds
were dressed Mr. Collins was taken home,
and We are informed, is rapidly recovering.

was rheumatism of the heart.
