and ". J. McGee. secretary of the
Inland Waterway Commission, who
are on tour Of the west looking up
matters connected with their bu.

morning train from he north and were
met at the station by a number of
public spirited business men who es.
corted them to the Commercial Club
rooms where Mr.. Pinohot spoke with
relation to the forestry service. The
matter OF road down Rogue River
was brought up and discussed and Mr..
Pinchot volunteered to endeavor TO
secure an appropriation toward the
work. He also agreed to send some
OF the government experts TO attend
the irrigation convention here in
September. Mr. MCGEE was then
called upon and spoke of the work of
his branch of the service and pre.
dicted that it would be but a few
years before Grants Pass would be
seeking aid toward making Rogue
River naviga5le. He will also attend
the convention here if possible. The
gentlemen then Inspected the office of
Secretary Anderson and then took n

FAITH.

Faith can move mountains. II
does 1t every day. The mine owner
who does not have faith, stops work
on his tunnel, but let him have faith
and he will drive tunnel clear
through the hill. The man who has
no faith in himself or in his ability
to do things is failure. To inspire
confidence In others you first have to
have confidence In yourself This law
holds good in regard to cities as we'll
as to individuals for the oity is but
the aggregate Of the individual. The
town that. gets ahead is the one that
firmly believes II has . future. Taco

THE QuACK-

The quack thrives ON ignorance and
the crop of ignorance never fails.
There are no droughts to dry up or
green bugs TO devour 1t, but it
tiourishes even as the green bay tree.
You can ever rely ON 1t and need
never fear that it will fail you in time
Of trouble or tribulation Ii will
always FIJI your pocket book il Won
have anything that IL wants. The
qlack doctor always has something
that ignorance wants, consequently
he rolls-in wealth while his patieus
roll in misery. Here in Portland
WAS u poor laborlng man who had
rheumatism in his knee. Being ig
norant he goes 60 Chinese Doctor
and planks down forty dollars of
hard earned cash to be cured Of his
rheumatism. The Chinaman puts ON
some Chinese dope that would blister
copper riveted boiler and like all
doctors tells him to call again. The
next time he rubs in some oil and
calmly proceeds to set fire to the
victims knee, This proved even
more than ignorance could stand and
after chasing the doctor" around the
block, he swore ont u warrant against
the Chinsman for practicing without
a license and Portland will have one
Chinese doctor less. Now the trouble
with this patient was in his head
and not his knee. What would have
met the emergency in the best possible
manner would have been 20 bore a
