WOMAN
NAMED BY
COURT

The county court of Clatsop county
has appointed Mrs G. A. Gearhart to
fill the office of superintendent of
schools of that county, in place of
Prof. H. S. Lyman, deceased.
The question of the eligibility of a
woman to a county office in the state
of Oregon was decided by the supreme
court in 1896, in the case brought by
j. L. Carter against Nellie M. Stevens,
to oust her from the Office of school
superintendent of Umatilla county, and
the court held that, under the consti-
tuition of the state, woman cannot
hold any office in the state.
Mrs. Stevens was duly nominated
and elected to the Office over Carter,
but he refused to recognize her right
to hold it, and, after several battles in
the courts over the possession of the
books, she was removed from the place,
and her term filed by Carter, her un-
successful opponent.
Since that time no woman has been
appointed by any party to Office, and
the appointment by the Clatsop county
court is the first step looking to re-
newal of the controversy.

Mr.. GEO. W. PUTNAM,
OUR LOCAL DRUGGIST
Says That the Wonderful Popularity
of vinol Is Due to Intrinsic
Merit.

"The intrinsic merit of this new cod
liver oil preparation, vinol," said Mr..
Putnam, els beginning to be realized
by the people of Salem. OF course in
my position as a druggist have seen
innumerable medicines and proprietary
articles introduced, but never in my
long experience have I ever known or
heard of a medicine that would produce
more beneficial results than Vinol.
"I attribute this to the fact that
Vinol contains in concentrated form
all the medicinal elements contained in
cod liver oil, actually taken from fresh
cod liver oil, but with ut drop of oil
or grease to nauseate and upset the
stomach, and it contains no sickening
drugs
GA prominent physician writes:
'Vinol is the most valuable prepara-
tion of cod liver oil known to medicine.
1t is of untold value to create strength
and build up the general system for
old people, weak women and children,
and it has no equal for colds, bron-
chial and all lung affections.
GO In cases where cod liver oil, emul-
sions and other tonics fail, Vinol will
heal, strengthen and cure.
"There are hundreds of people right
here in Salem who can testify that
there is nothing equal to Vinol to make
rich, red blood, to increase the appe-
tite, cure stomach troubles, give
strength and renewed vitality to the
aged, build up the rundown, tired and
debilitated, make the weak strong, cure
chronic coughs, colds and build up the
convalcscent.
" We freely offer to return your
money in every case where Vinol fails.
Try it on this guarantee" Geo. w.
Putnam, druggist.
