The Investment Society of Ore

The Investment Society of Ore
gon, which has recently been or
ganized with headquarters at
Mayville, Oregon, embraces in
its large number Of stockholders
the substantial and reputable
business men and farmers of Gil
liam and Wheeler counties. The
primary object of the Society,
that of bringing more people to
the two counties, is surely a
worthy one. The Society has
the further power of promoting
railroads, installing power plants,
operating mills, etc., all of which
tend toward the bettering of con-
ditions and the upbuilding of the
country generally. 1t is need
less to say that the stockholders
expect large returns from the
funds they have invested and
they are entitled to such returns
as they can get, for every dollar
the Society makes for its stock.
holders means two dollars fol-
the country generally. The peo.
pie of Gillian county should sup.
port any action toward the ad.
vertising Of the county, for pros.
pective colonists will have to be
shown what Gillian county offers
before they will settle here.

The Memorial Day observed
on Tuesday was especially notable
because of the fact that it was
the fiftieth anniversary of the
beginning of the Civil War. Hun
dreds of thousands of graves were
decorated with flowers as a token
of the nations silent regard for
those who so nobly laid down
their lives for the preservation
of a government that today
stands highest in the advocacy
of international peace. On that
day the veterans of the Blue and
Gray went out as brothers to
pay tribute to their sleeping COM

Police Seeking Men

who was cut on the arm with a razor
by an unidentified colored man while in
front of her husbands haberdasher shop
BIG Four-and-a-half street southwest
last night. Police of the Fourth pre-

the man suspected of doing the cutting.
Three colored men had been standing in
front of the place for about half an hour,
when Bobys went out and told them to
move along. An argument between
Bobys and the men followed, and when
Mrs. Bobys went out on the sidewalk.
one of the men drew a razor and cut
her on the right forearm. The men fed
after the cutting.
Mrs. Bobys went to the Emergency
Hospital, where she had the wound
dressed, and later returned home.

NEW YORK, Sept. 21.-wall Street
has accepted the doctrine that trusts
must reorganize, that they are willing
to do so of their own accord, and are
at this time trying to find the answer to
the riddle-or, rather, are awaiting the
reorganization of the Tobacco trust, with
a view of following suit.
The liquidation in Steel common and
preferred was decidedly heavy, and
lower prices were furthered by persist
ent selling by bears. They may not have
sold much preferred short, but here there
was actual liquidation in quantities. For
weeks Steel preferred held as strongly
as anything in the market. Then when
point and two-point declines developed,
the confidence of the, holders was quick
ly unsettled. and at the market liquidat-
ing orders were sent in just az fast as
the market would take them.
At first 1t was a slow and solemn de-
cline. and then a little more pronounced
to a drop from 133% to no on Wednes-
day. and this morning from 1924, the
opening, to 105k, the lowest record for
many a day.
In the meantime the common broke
from 63 .. the opening. to G0&, with a
recovery 20 6lIs.
At the start the railroads gave way
for y point and then came back with
good strength. The Street, bearish as
ever, was OF the opinion hat the
liquidation in the railroad list had
about run its course. they found little
in industrials and became
less pessimistic as a result, covering
here and there, but not letting up In
their pounding on Steel. However. the
new low record on both common and
preferred for the year made many OF
the shorts run for cover in a commend
a BILE desire TO bank their profits. There
were runIors Of pool to be organized
ny Morgan and his friends to stand
back Of the market. although the action
nf the rails did not suggest the need Of
anything Of that kind. 1t isn't a case
Of money, after all, it's a case Of lack of
confidence. of knowledge that reorgan-
zation is necessary to the trusts and
that politics are unsettling.

Every woman S heart responds to
the charm and sweetness of a
baby's voice, because nature in
tended her for motherhood. But
even the loving nature of a mother
shrinks from the ordeal because
such time is regarded as a period
of suffering and danger. Women
who use Mothers Friend are saved
much discomfort and suffering, and
their systems, being thoroughly
prepared by this great remedy, are
in healthy condition to meet the
time with the least possible suffer

is recommended only for the relief
and comfort of expectant mothers;
it is in no sense remedy for vari-
Gus ills, but its many years of
success, and the thousands of en-

who have used it are a guarantee
of the benefit to be derived from
its use. This remedy does not ac-
complish wonders but simply as
