pleased to learn that there's at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
a BILE to cure in all its stages, and that is
Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the
only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being CON
stitutional disease, requires a constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure
is taken internally, acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the fonnda-
ton OF the disease, and giving the pat
lent strength by building up the consli-
tuition and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so much
faith in its curative powers that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list of

MANY IMMIGRANTS COME WEST
Season of COlOnist Rates Is Bringing
Thousands of New Citizens to
Oregon.

All previous records for colonist
travel to the Northwest have been
broken by the tremendous influx OF
actual homeseekers and settlers dur
ing the two weeks the low rate has
been in effect. Even the splendid
high-water mark made in the Spring
of 1907, the banner year in history,
has been eclipsed, and there is no indi-
cation that there will be any falling
off in the travel eastward during the
remaining seven weeks Of the season.
Statistics compiled by the Hartman
officials in this territory show that
1926 colonists-and that means per
manent and producing citizenship
have sought new homes in the terri
tory covered by Hartman lines. This
is an increase of 901 over last year,
gain of go for each of the Is days 1t
is an increase over the first two weeks
Of March, 1907, of 141, and the 1907
record had never been touched before |
OF the 1896 coming over the Harri-
man lines, 706, or nearly 25 per cent,
are to make their homes in Portland |
and different Willamette Valley
localities. Should the aggregate move
ment continue its present pace until
the season closes, the new population
brought to the Northwest by the lines
mentioned will reach total of 14,823,
or 1903 more than the former record OF
1907, which was 1890. But General
Passenger Agent William McMurray,
of the Hartman lines, says that the
volume of colonist business is going s
to increase week by week, and declares 6
that the above estimate is altogether ,
too low. Z
Not only is Portland receiving the ?
greatest accretion Of population it has h
ever had during homeseekers' sea-
son, but points north, south and east
Of the city are being invaded by a
mighty army Of permanent residents.

Real Estate Men Meet.

The real estate men of Polk county
held meeting in Independence, Sat
urdsy night, and organized an associ
alton. A committee on constitution
and bylaws was appointed and will
make its report in the near future
before a meeting which will be held
in Dallas for the purpose Of making
the organization permanent. At Sat
urday nights meeting the subjects of
contracts, commissions and publicity
were considered and the new organiza-
tion will probably prove a valuable
factor in the work of advertising the
of Polk county.

Hop Contracts at Eleven Cents,

The increase during the past few
months in the prices offered for hops
has resulted in generally optimistic
attitude on the part of the growers
with regard to the prospects of the
business for the season of 1909. The
acreage in Polk county was reduced
considerably last year as indeed was
the case throughout the entire state
and for that reason they do not autici-
pate that the prices offered will fall
any lower, while there is a prospect Of
them climbing even few points
higher. The highest price offered on
contract this year in Polk county is IL
cents.
