business in Hcod River was con
summated Wednesday when the bank
ing firm OF Butler Il Co. decided to
incorporate that institution Hereto.

Leslie and Truman Butler az its
sponsors and managers.

the first banking institution to open
its doors in Hood River. At the end
of the first year the hank had deposits
of S36, 600 which have gradually in.
creased until the amount of money
now deposited with this firm is 500,
600. No better proof of faith in the
integrity OF business institution is
wanted than this.

portions, however that 1t has become
necessary for the bank to have a
wider sphere of financial action and
1t was decided to Incorporate,
and associate themselves with some
of the larger financial institutions.

ficers were elected:

The Rev. W. A. Patteson OF Prince
ton, Ind, in an address to the United
Psalmody convention in Chicago, re-
Gently, took exception to tho using
of the beautiful hymn, Lead, Kind
ly Light" written by the eminent
prelate, Cardinal Newman, in chris
tian churches. Mr., Patterson con
tends that its intent may apply to any
man "be he Christian, Atheist or
Buddhist" Exactly, Mr.. Patterson,
that is why Cardinal Newman wrote
1t. Being, as he was, a man Of most
profound intellect, he wrote for all
mankind, and not for the Pharisee
alone.

Federal Appointments.

A general policy as to federal appoint
ments has been determined upon by The
President and his cabinet. At the con-
clusion of the meeting 1t was announced
that, for the present at least, the uni
form policy would be to retain incum-
bents 10 office during satisfactory SER
vice, this policy to hold irrespective of
the length of service of the incumbent.
Secretary Taft said IL has also been
determined not to appoint as brigader
generals on the active list of the army,
officers who had served 40 years, inciud-
ing services in the Civil war. Those off.
GERS are eligible now to retirement as
brigadier generals, and 1t Is not the pur-
pose Of the administration to make them
brigadier generals on the active list. The
secretary said there were approximately
40 of such officers, all Of whom would be
permitted to retire as brigadier generals
or to continue TO serve In their present
grade at their option. The adoption of
this policy will open the way for the
appointment as brigsdier generals Of
many younger officers than heretofore
have held that grade.

Dun's Review Confidence has be-
come more general through resumption
of outdoor work, opening Of spring trade
and expectation that the war will soon
terminate. Weather conditions are IA
vorable In most sections of the country
and there is little interruption because
OF labor controversies. The most graft
flying news of the week emanates from
the iron and steel industry where un-
precedente1 output Of pig iron Is not
productive OF accumulated stocks.

Thus about So 800 will be saved in
state Offices and IS, 900 In county, sl4 800
In all. This 10 upon the supposition
that these officials will turn into the
State and county treasures annually,
In the way Of fees, just as much as they
covered into their own pockets last year.
The account further states that the
State will save by the abolishment OF
the pass system $4,000 year; by making
the county attorneys do the legal work
OF the counties $4,000. The State by
making the attorney general do the work
of the several legal departments $40, 600.
These three items are necessarily n.y.
potheticsl. Ii appears to be guess work,
but of course this committee has figured
upon the matter and ought to know
better than we do and be prepared to
make better guess than we can.
A straight salary with fees OF Office
covered into the public treasury, is the
correct method and 1t appears that
Maine will make a saving by adopting
this method of compensation to public
officials.

There is nothing that has met popular
favor in the psst years Ike the proposed
investigation of the Standard Oil Trust,
and II measures are taken to deal with
this as 1t Ia commonly supposed to de-
serve, the people will rejoice. This Ia
the oldest and the strongest OF trusts,
and rightly or wrongly, lie credited with
having more than It's share OF the iniqui-
ties common to trusts. There is a fear
that it won't get what ought TO be com.
ing to it because OF the connection Of
several members of Congress with it,
but IL there is such connection, the
greater the need OF the investigation.

Coughs,
Colds

Lots of people look at a cough or
cold as if it were inevitable, and refer
10 it as some ailment, which they
naturally expect during the stormy
winter months. No person need
have the slightest attack of cold or
Ia grippe, nor even pneumonia, if
their system is properly fortified.
RFxALL MUCU-ToNE will fortify your
system against any such attacks.
Since ] make this strong statement
/ will tell you how Mucu-Tone
does this: Coughs, colds and pneu-
monia are but the result of a ca
tarrhal condition, which is in
reality an internal scrofula. If the
system is free of catarrhal germs you
need never fear coughs, colds and
pneumonia. Mucu-Tone will do it
because Mucu-Tone clears the sys-
tenn of every trace of catarrh al
germs, tones up the system, shakes
off hanging on tag-end coughs and
colds, revitalizes the entire system,
increases the appetite and makes
YOU put on flesh. You take no
chances in buying Mucu- Tone, be-
cause back it up by refunding the
price if you are in any way dis
satisfied. l couldn't afford to spend
my time selling this remedy if it
didn't benefit ninety-eight out of
very hundred persons who use it.

recommendation, a large trial-size

Saving ON Salaries.

The statement has been given publicly
by certain daily papers that the State
will make saving of s32, 500 per year
by the legislation abolshing the fee
system In State and county offices.
Based on the fees received last year,
there is or will be a saving OF 50 $40 In
the two offices, secretary of state and
attorney general; the other State officers
as we make 1t, will 90 the whole, re-
ceiVe about the same for salaries as
heretofore.

A new German tariff has been framed

greater protection to the agricultural IN

ducts have been greatly sdvanced-iu

in few instances even higher. The d.
