One OF the most commendable insti-
tutious OF Deming and one which has
added no little to the disturbances Of
the town as place to live. is the
Ladies Hospital This institution had a
very humble beginning about fourteen
years ago. The originstors Of this en-
terprise were Judge Seaman Field. J. P
Byron, J. A. Mshoney and DR.. S. D.
SWOpes Sometime IN the year 1888,
these gentlemen met and decided that
the town. due 20 its central location
and the large territory unsuppIied with
hospital facilities. needed such an In
stitution.
Zach OF the above named gentlemen
gave q bed TO the hospital, and 4 build
ing was rented from Mrs. Z. E. McDan-
lei on Silver avenue and the enterprise
was launched It's early years were fun
OF hardships. The town was small, ana
= there were so many charity patients
that II was BY no means self-support-
ing During this period, and for sew
ersl years. the ladies who were inter
ssted in the hospital gave weekly ba-
eaars, selling hapdWOrks cakes, bread
and various other products from the
households OF Deming
Thirty TO forty dollars a week was
realized in this way When property
was cheap in Deming, the hospital
board had the foresight TO purchase
six splendid lots on Copper avenue Just
across the street from the CathOlis
church. The lots lay there and cost
practically nothing for a number of
years. and steadily increased in price
as is the way with all Deming prop
erty.
Territory Helps.
The first help from the territorial
government came in the way OF an aD-
preparation OF s2500.0O, several years

IT will be noticed from the ABOVE
table that the number OF patients treat
ed in the Deming hospital is increas-
ing year by year. As the facilities for
properly treating patients at this IN
stitutiOn become more generally known
there will be an increasing number
taken advantage OF them
The hospital association Is not by
any means a closed corporation In
deed. It is not a corporation in any
sense. except that the organization was
incorporated under the act allowing any
organization for the public good to in
corporate so as to relieve the indl-
vidual members from individual Ia
bility on tie debts which the Organi-
zation might incur. IT Is not cor
pOration in the sense that an incor-
pOrated business concern Is corpora
ton.
Needs support
The Deming hospital needs and is en-
titled to the support OF every person IN
Deming and Luna county A worthy
institution mas been started and IS wei
under way by reason Of the efforts OF
certain public spirited men and Wo-
men, and it is entitled TO the patronage
of all within the trade territory OF
Deming This hospital admits all dis
eases not conta giOus, and all kinds OF
surgery The following are the off

APPRECIATION.

To the Voters of Lincoln County:
To those If you who stood so 10y
ally by me in the recent campaign,
and who aided my candidacy with
your vote, / want to extend my
thanks. | appreciate the majority
you gave me, and all the more so
because you gave it to me knowing
that l was an ardent spporter of
President Taft. Though defeated,
still | am proud to know that Lin
coin county stood by me. | regret
my defeat most because feel that
Lincoln County has lost by it, for
had | been elected should have
devoted much of my time to secur-
ing for your county many things
you need so badly; l intended to
make a special effort in your be-
half. With my wide acquaintance
among the members of the Legisla-
ture, | would have been in posi-
tion to have accomplished much.
However, | was defeated by good
man, and one whom ! believe will
make good representative. Twas
defeated simply and solely for the
reason, however. that | took a
definite stand with reference to
National affairs, and worked hard
in the interests of the Republican
party, speaking for nearly two
weeks in Columbia, Clatsop and
Umatilla counties, besides doing
some work in your county. The
"Progressives" Of this county on
this account voted against me and
defeated me. 1t is another case of
where a man to serve his own per-
sonal ends should have been
straddler; but am proud to say
that am no straddler, and cannot
carry water on both shoulders.
You knew this, and voted for me
none the less on that account, and
this action on your part not only
shows your own broad and high
mindedness. but out of the gloom
of defeat it appears as a shining
ray of light to me, carrying with
it hope and pride. ! want to thank
you again for your hearty support
and warm endorsement, and only
hope that the time may come when
] can, in a measure. repay you for
the confidence and trust you placed
in me. Respectfully yours,
Walter L. Tooze, Jr.

The loss of the Condor is a severe
blow to Waldport. Winter supplies

until another boat is placed on the

We are "dry" and will remain so
at least a year. just as well let it
go at that, boys, and abide by the
law.
The salmon season is over. Some
