Ladies Home Journal for June.

Ladies Home Journal for June.
In the MAY number of the Ladies
Home Journal we published, in the ar
ticle entitled "The Patent Medicine
Curse" an analysis of CDR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription" in which that
preparation was represented as contain.
ing, among other ingredients, tincture
of digitalis, tincture of OPIUM and alco-
hol. Immediately on publication of
the number suit for damages wes in
stituted by the r. V. Pierce Medical
Co., of Buffalo, N. Y. proprietors of the
preparation in question, against the
Curtis Publishing Company, based
upon the claim that none of the three
ingredients were contained in the med
icine:
Upon the filing of the suit
we, of course, Immediately looked into
the published analysis. 1t appears that
this particular analysis had been made,
if made at all, fully twenty-five years
ago. We thereupon employed three
leading chemists in different cities to
make an analysis of the preparation
from bottles bought in the open market.
These analyses, one and all, now show
to us conclusively that not a single one
of the ingredients mentioned by us in
the analysis quoted-tbat is, either digi-
tails, opium or alcohol-was contained
in tae bottles aDalyzed. We then, the
president of this company and the writ
er, personally visited the R. V. Pierce
Medical Company, at Buffalo, and were
there convinced that the officers of the
company were absolutely truthful in
their claim that not one of these iniuri-
GUS ingredients wGs contained in CDR.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription" Ma
turally, since the analysis we printed
has been proven erroneous, the deduc-
tons made in connection with this pre-.
paration were uuwarranted and un-
founded.
Under these circumstances it is now
perfectly plain to us that this magazine
was unintentionally, but nevertheless

OREGON DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE
Portland, August 2, 3--One Fare
for Round Trip.

y
Oregon Development League Con-
vention, to be held at the Mar
guam Grand Theatre, in Portland,
under the auspices Of the Port
land Commercial Club, August 2,
and 3, will be a magnificent sue
cess is now assured. 1t is desired
that all delegates who can do 80
will be at the Marquam Grand by
$3.50 SO as to register and receive
badges, as it is especially desired
that the convention be called to
order not later than 10 o'clock and
get down to work Immediately for
complete and effective organiza-
tion.
There will be but few set
speeches and these will be deliv-
cred by practical men in the diff
ferent industries, and after each
address delegates to the conven-
ton will be given an opportunity
to ask the speakers such questions
as they desire and to comment
upon the facts presented. 1t has
been suggested that it would add
greatly to the effectiveness of the
work if the delegates from differ
ent communities will perfect an
organization of their delegation
before leaving home.
If each and everv delegation
will prepare condensed reports of
actual production, giving not only
the actual results accomplished by
growers and producers but the
name of that grower or producer
in the same plain, direct language
that an Oregon farmer would use
in writing to an old friend in one
of the distant states, then we will
have matter for the use of the
newspapers and the immigration
departments of the railroads that
will secure results. These reports
should be written in duplicate, not
only for the use of the Portland |
papers, but to insure a complete
report of the proceedings. If the
convention can take the form of
An experience meeting, in which
long speeches are left unsald, and
bright, pithy, striking points are
made, it will insure not only the
permanency of the Oregon Devel-
opment League, but will be of
benefit to every section of this
state.
A round trip open rate, good for
everybody, has been put on by the
and tickets are good on
all trains arriving in Portland on
the afternoon of August 1 and
of August 2, good to re-
turn until August 4, except that
fares of 80 cents or less will not
be reduced. 1t is advisable that
those attending the convention
should get definite particulars
from their local agent as to the
time of the departure of trains.
Residents of Oregon who take

advantage Of this rate and are no
delegates to the convention, will
be welcome to attend the conven
ton, occupying seats in the bal
cony and gallery. The seats II
the parquet will be used exclu
sively for delegates. Desiring t(
keep record of this convention
not only in type but in illustrated
form for general circulation, 6
snapshot photograph will be made
exactly at eleven o'clock Tuesday
morning, August 2. The taking
of this picture will occupy a
minute or two of the conventions
time.
A committee from the Woman's
Club of Portland will have charge
of a trolley ride to be given to the
wives, daughters, sisters and other
ladies accompanying delegates to
the convention, for which four
large cars have been supplied with
the compliments of the Oregon
Water Power and Railroad Com
pany. This special train of troll
ley cars will leave the corner of
First and Alder streets exactly at
5p. m., August 2, for a trip to
Canamah Park, beyond Oregon
City.
Delegates to the convention and
ladies accompanying them are cor
daily invited to attend a recep-
tion as the guests of the Com
mercial Club Tuesday evening
from eight to eleven o'clock, and
during both days of the conven-
tion, the rooms and especially the
tower of the Commercial Club,
will be open for the use of visitors
and delegates. All those who
have never had the pleasure of
birds-eye view of Portland should
improve this opportunity.
The convention will adjourn in
ample time to give all the dele
gates and the ladies accompanying
them an opportunity to enjoy a
trolley ride over the city, in which
ten open cars will be used, jointly
supplied with the compliments of
the City & Suburban Railway Co.,
and the Portland Railway Go.
These cars will start from Third
and Yamhill streets Wednesday
afternoon, promptly at 3 o'clock,
and two citizens of Portland will
be upon each car to point out
places of especial interest.

SENATOR MITCHELL HOME,


Hon. John H. Mitchell, senior 3ena-
tor from Oregon in the National Con-
gress, has arrived in Portland, much
weared from his legislative duties anG
pleased of the opportunity to secnre 81
rest. He Will remain during the sum.
mer. According to an interview had
with the Senator, published in the Port
land Telegram, he has not the slightest
doubt of the re election of President
| Roosevelt, this fall, and thinks that the
only state Parker stands a show
OF carrying. if any at all, will be New
York, and there are grave doubts OF his
ability to carry that. When asked as to-
the outcome of the election Senator
Mitchell said: Everybody in the East
feels confident of President Roosevet's
election. | believe that he will be elect
ed by greater popular and electoral ma
jority than was the late President Nc
Kinley." He intends stumping the
state IN the interest of President Roose--
velts candidacy. In regard to irriga--
ton in Oregon, he said;
eyes, the Government is going to do
a great deal for irrigation in Oregon.
The greatest difficulty thus far encoun-.
tered has been that OF conflict with
private irrigation schemes. Delay has
been occasioned through the occupancy
of rights ct way by private companies
and the adjustment OF these differences
has served to retard progress of the
Governments work. The Department
of the interior has set aside $500, 900 for
carrying on irrigation work in Oregon.
and l believe the enterprise will be
pushed. This will ia the end be of very
material assistance to the state by way
of developing its latent resources
through the reclamation of new aria
tracts, and will lend a special impetus
to encouraging Westward immigration.
Irrigation in the vicinity of Kenne--
wick, WASH, has increased the value OF
land from $l5 and $25 per. acre to $500
per acre, and the returns received by
the farmers are sufficient to warrant the.
prices now paid. Similar results are in
sight for the land around Pasco, for
years regarded as one of the most
worthless portions OF the entire Pacific
Northwest. One advantage accruni
from the cultivation OF these irrigated
lands Is that the farmers cannot grow
wheat at profit on $500 per acre land.
This results in more "intense" farming,
ana, instead OF one family on thOI8~
and acres. as is frequently the case with
wheat farmers, there will be ten fam-.
lies on 100-acre tract, and all of them
will be making 'somtthing more than a
living. If all of the land susceptible to
cultivation in Oregon and Washington
we're farmed as carefully and to such
good advantage as is the case with the
rrig ted districts, the population would
run into millions. .-Oregonian,
