The p. G. "Advocate," in compIi-
menting a subscriber, says he is not
of the kind to cut off his paper at a
dash because it may contain some,
thing that does not suit them. No
doubt; but there ARE plenty of peo.
ple so narrow minded and bigoted as
TO imagine that paper must express
none but their exclusive views in any
matter simply because they subscribe
for it. And yet nine out of ten of
such persons would berate a news
paper for the least apparent failure
to speak out boldly ndindependent-
ly.
1t is said that all men, great or
small, have their weak side. The
editor of the "Oregonian" never
showed his weak spot more plainly,
or demonstrated more clearly his un-
reasonable prejudice in personal
matters than in his persistent and
senseless attacks on Senator Mitch
ell. All this clap trap about the sob.
iectionable features" of the n. p.
r. r. bill as amended by Senator
Mitchell, is merely straw caught at
by Scott in his wild attempts to find
something to abuse the Senator for.
In it an opportunity was utilized to
fuse with the forces of the railroad
company, thus splitting the Republi-
can party, and giving the Democracy
of Oregon a rare opportunity Of vic.
tory. Recently, in public speech,
Senator Mitchell triumphantly de-
manded that the "Oregonian" inform
its readers if it could Of a single
clause in the "obnoxious bill" that
could be interpreted as injurious or
derogatory to the best interests of
the State Of Oregon. The restric
tions which it would place upon the
r. R. Co., while they do not wrong
that company, simply secure to the
people of Oregon their rights. No
doubt Senate" Mitchell could have
pandered to the demands and greed
of corporate power, even while using
the honied plea of Serving the best
interests Of his constituents" and
secured a reelection to his position
in the U. 5. Senate through the
corrupt influence thus obtainable.
But he preferred to act upon his hon
est convictions; he considered him
self the servant Of the people, elect
ed as the guardian of their interests
and not to become the agent of un,
scrupulous monopolies. The heat oi
the recent conflict in our neighboring
state will pass away in the near fu
ture, and with it vii also fade tho
Sophistry used against her noble Sen
ator, and then will the toiling voter
who hivt been 20 faithfully repre-
sented by him realize the true wortl
of the man they have failed to ap
preciate. He expects yindication il
the future, and he will not be disap
pointed.

Liver is King.

The Liver is the imperial organ of
the whole human system, as it controls
the life, health and happiness of man.
When it is disturbed in its proper ac-
ton, all kinds of ailments are the nat
ural result. The digestion of food, the
movements of the heart and blood, the
action of the brain and nervous system,
are all Immediately connected with the
workings of the Liver. 1t has been
successfully proved that Green's Aug

persons afflicted with. Dyspepsia or
Liver Complaint, and all the numerous

his sweetness and felt good all over.
Perhaps he had encircled her fragile
form with his manly coat sleeve, and
whispered sweet something's in her
ear and perhaps she had blushingly
promised to be "thine alone" Any
how something had put him in a re-
markably good humor, and he felt
like embracing all humanity, inclu-
ding the lamp post on the corner of
Main and Barron streets!

Deacon A. V. Auter, being here on
a spiritual mission from Topeka city,
gathered o few of the most faithful of
his "good gathering" Church and gave
them "quail on toast" supper last
Friday evening, at the Restaurant of
Cap. Wilson. The meal was prepar-
ed by John Monfort and was agreeas
bly, enjoyed by all the participants,
after which a short experience meet
ing was held. 1t is not often you find
a Deacon who administers so bounti-
fully to the temporal as well as spir-
itual comforts of his flock. as does
Deacon Auter, which accounts for the
great reverence and love his adherents
here hold him in, and are always
ready to certify to his good standing
with his members. Long may he live
to spread good cheer" and the doc
trine of the "good gathering" church
among the heathens in his new fields
