So-called stomach troubles. such

contents OF the stomach, causing the
formation OF gas and acids. Wind
distends the stomach. ana causes
that full. oppressive feeling some
times known as heartburn, while the
acid irritntes and inflames the deli
cate lining of the stomach. The
trouble lies entirely In the ferment-
ing food such fermentation IN un-
natural. and acid formation Is not
only unnatural. but may Involve

Stripped Of lts theoretical and &C
ademic value, the proposed Seattle
charter stands out before the people
Of this city as a dangerous and reac-
tionary instrument, holding forth
the unpleasant prospect Of invisible
government, special interest control,
growing taxes, and municipal stag.
nation.
Why this Ia so can be expressed
In a few words. II is because the
entire power OF legislation and ad-
ministration is spread upon the
shoulders OF 80 little men. with such
anomalous powers and duties a. to
preclude Capitalization of RESPONSE
bility and lead inevitably TO confu-
sion.
Worse Than Before
For 100 years the growing cities
of this country have struggled TO
free themselves from the clutches
OF franchise grabbers and treasury
looters, whose continuation In pow
er has been uniformly intrenched
by weak and corrupt ward councils.
In this city. in 1910. the people, by
charter amendment. for this very
purpose abolished its ward council
of IL members and substituted
therefor a council of nine elected
at large.
Now. scarcely four years later, II
Is unblushingly proposed not only
10 return to the discarded system,
but to create body inferior TO that
abolished In 1910. and confer upon

ministration heretofore executed

LABOR COMMISSIONER
REPLIES TO CRITICISM

State Labor Commissioner Hoff today
handed the following statement to The
Capital Journal for publication:
"Much adverse criticism having been
made because Of my determination to
enforce the eight-hOur law on public
works the same as other laws, 1 desire
to answer so that the work of the bu.
reau, which is dealing with what to-.
day is the greatest question before the
American people-the labor question,
should not be hampered by wrong con.
clusions, The laws coming under my
jurisdiction to enforce, like all laws,
are enacted by the people of the state,
either direct through the initiative or
by the legislature. l am not responsible
for the same. When an act is passed it
is either good law or faulty law, or
no law at all. If a good law, it should
be enforced for its value; if a faulty
law it should be enforced that the
faults may be seen and cured; if no
law at all, or its intent obscure, it is
for the supreme court to decide.
81 believe all good men and women,
on sober second thought, will realize
that it is my sworn duty to see that
the laws are enforced. 'Trimminpj by
officers settles nothing, l should know
what the law means and the people
whom it affects should know what it
means. 1t is my duty to enforce the
labor laws, and | believe the right
thinking people of this state, when they
understand the situation, will back me
up in doing so, but whether they do or
not, believing am right, shall 20

Place Where Men of All Opinions Can
Meet to Discuss Social and Econ
omic Questions.
WILL NOT TAKE PARTISAN
OR sECTARIAN POSITION
Endorsement of Any Candidate for Of
flee or Discussion of Fractional
Questions Barred.

Looking to the formation of a civic
center, where men of all opinions car
meet on common ground to discuss
social and economic questions, the
Mems Liberal club was organized last
night at the Unitarian church which has
offered the club home for its future
meetings
{ w. A. Denton was elected president
of the club, Guy o. Smith was chosen
vice-president, and Carl Smith, secre.
tary, in each case the election being
by unanimous vote. They will serve
for term Of one year. Election OF
other officers, including an executive
committee, which will play an import
ant part in the work of the organiza-
ton, was postponed Until next Wednes-
day night, when an adjourned meeting
will be held.
All the speakers united in declaring
that the club, while opening the d-rs
to full discussion and debate of topics
that are foremost in the public mind,
will not take partisan or sectarian
position, and in line with this resolve,
the constitution contains a clause for
bidding the Endorsement Of any candi
date for office or of any question that
might lead to factional warfare.
The choice of name occasioned lively
debate, "Men 8 Liberal Club" being
chosen over numerous rivals. Some
wished to extend the organization to
include women in the membership, but
this was voted down. The only other
limitation upon membership is that the
applicant shall be citizen of good NOR
al character
Meetings are to be held on the first
and third Wednesdays in each month.
Plans are under way for the formation
of study branches and for public lee
lures, it being expected that prominent
speakers will be brought from Portland
and other parts Of the state from time
to time. After signing up nearly a
score Of Eames last night, the club re-
solved to hold the charter list open
for one week. completing the organi-
zation at the adjourned meeting next
Wednesday night.

DEMONSTRATION TRAIN
COMES HERE TONIGHT

In its effort to cooperate with the
people along its lines, the Southern Pa.
cific company is bringing a great hog
and dairy demonstration train to this
city tonight, and is especially anxious
that every farmer of this vicinity take
advantage of the opportunity to inspect
the exhibit carried on the seven cars of
the train and listen to the lectures
which will be given in double doses.
Lectures on dairying and hog growing
will be carried on at the same time in
different parts of the train. The train
will be at Ferry and Commercial from
1880 p. m. to $3.50 p. m. Flat cars
are used for exhibiting the stock.
There has never been a time when
the development of these industries
were of more interest to the people Of
Oregon. Live hogs are commanding
the highest price in history, while there
is general shortage of meat animals
all along the line, Butter fat is selling
at an average of 80 cents per pound,
but Notwithstanding that fact Oregon
is a large importer of butter 1t has
been conclusiyely shown that eastern
Oregon is ideally located for the grow.
ing Of hogs and for operating the most
profitable dairies in the world.

ing DR.. Withycombe, Professor Hetzel,

while the train is carrying a large selec'
tion of the best animals produced at

According to statement made this

900 Of the $23O,OOO that is to be paid
to property holders by virtue of the
sewer refund issue has been turned over
to claimants to date. The warrants
which amounted to $25O,00O, have all

This leaves claims for $4,000 yet to

being attended to at the rate of about
$4,000 week, and at the present rate
it will take 13 weeks before all the
claims will be paid off.
There has been considerable misun.
derstanding among the property hold
ers as to what constitutes valid claim,
although the exact requirements for the
establishment of valid claim have
been printed several times.
The person entitled to the refund for
any piece Of property is the person who
was the owner Of that piece Of proper.
ty on January Q, 1912. In order to re-
ceive the refund his affidavit that he
was tho owner at that time is not suf.

have this claim paid it is necessary for
him TO secure a release to all claims
for this refund from all persons who
have owned the property since January
2, 1919. Tho securing Of these releases
from previous owners and the checking
of tho ownership Of the property over
in the county records is causing large
