KASPARILLA

This sterling household remedy is most
successfully prescribed for world OF
troubles" For arrangements of the d.
gestive organs it is natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and all
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating a healthful activity. Its
beneficial Influence extends, however, to
every portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation Of
food, promoting wholesome, natura!
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, irregularities of the bowels, con-
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi-
ness, headache, backache and despond-
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract. 1t is a
strengthening tonic of the highest value.
If it fails to satisfy we authorize all
dealers to refund the purchase price.

MINE PAYS cIrY's BILLS.
me municipality OF BAKER, wash.
owns = Profitable Deposit
Of Geld Ore.

The town of Baker City, Wash, is
one OF the most favored Of munici.
palities, for it is the owner OF a wa.
ter system which is a veritable gold
mine. About year ago the city au.
thorfties issued bonds to the amount
OF 100000 and established n gravity
! water system to supply the city from
Elk creek. ten miles away in the
mountains. After the new system
was nearly completed it was dis
covered this summer that the flow
OF water was not sufficient to meet
the demands Of the city and the
council issued more bonds and pur-
chased the celebrated Auburn ditch.
which brings a large supply of wa
Ter from the mountains to n point
about eight miles from the city. The
water Is excellent, there is plenty of
1t and it will soon be connected with
the main water system, says a local
informant.
All this is very well, but there is
something distinctly peculiar about
the new water system of Baker City.
The title to the Auburn ditch car
rfes with it the title to the celebrat-
ed Nelson placer mines, situated
eight or ten miles west of the CITY.
and in securing the water the CITY
also acquired a gold mine, probably
the first ever owned by any munich
pality in the United States. These
mines have been leased in the past
year by year to people who have
taken out good returns every season.
This year the owners have made a
good cleanup. Next year the city
can operate the mine itself or lease
the privilege to others.
1t is estimated by mining man
OF experience that the Nelson placer
mines will pay sufficient revenue to
pny all the expenses of the CITY
government of Baker City and afford
many improvements now greatly
needed by this rapidly growing little
city. For instance, the town is in
urgent need of a good sewerage sys-
TEN, electric street lights, street
pavement and systematic street
sprinkling during the dry months. 1t
is also proposed to erect in Baker
City next year a permanent mineral
palace, to be constructed of gold and
silver ores and to contain large col
lection of the ores from which everv
camp and mine in eastern Oregon, so
arranged and exhibited as to answer
all questions as to the mineral re-
sources of the country. 1t would
show to stranger the exact loca-
ton and character of all the differ
ent kinds of ores, gold, silver, coz
per, COAL. nickel, kaolin, asphaltum
md the location and description of
all the working mines and prospects.
1t is believed that the rental or
proceeds from the Nelson placers,
which in such peculiar manner be-
came the property OF Baker City, will
run the city and pay for these much
desired improvements, and perhaps
nd in wiping out the city's indebted
hess already being steadily reduced
