Weaker Than Water.

A man is never in a more debilitated
condition than when he has weatlered
a case of measels. The system finds
it hard to bear up under the weight of
the disease and almost rebels against
the strain upon it. And yet there is a
remedy which answers the require
ments Of such a case. A prominent
druggist and physician writes:
DARLINGTON, S. C..
Gentlemen - Dir. Westmoreland's
Callsaya Tonic has been going very
well this spring. There has been a
good deal of measels, especially among
the factory operatives which left them
in a debilitated condition for which
your tonic seems to he the very thing,
it has sold we'll.
Yours truly,

Where Women Vote.

Hamilton Wilcox, of New York, has
published a pamphlet entitled Free
doms ~Conquests," which, revised to
date. gives the present status of wo-
man suffrage throughout the world,
showing over 100 regions where it ex-
lists in America, Europe, Africa, Asia
and Oceanica. Probably very few peo-
pie suppose there is a spot in Africa
where women have even limited suf
frage, but under the government of
the cape of Good Hope, which rules
several hundred thousand square miles
ct territory, women have municipal
suffrage. In New Zealand woman
have municipal and school suffrage,
and the legislature has resolved that
they shall vote for members of parlia-
ment. Woman also vote in Victoria,
New South Wales, Queensland, south
Australia and west Australia. In Pit
cairp Island (south Pacitic) women
iave voted about a hundred years.
They have full suffrage there. But
the island does not amount to a hill of
beans. In the little isle of Man, on
the opposite side of the globe, with
ABOUT oO,OOO people, women have been
voting five Years. In England, Scot
land and Wales single women vote tor
all elective offices, excepting members
of parliament and will very likely saon
have that vote also. In Ireland wo
men vote everywhere for poor Law
guardians and in some of the
for harbor boards. In Belfast thev
vote for all municipal officers. In
france women teachers vote every
where for Women members Of boards
OF education. In Sweden they vote
about as III Britain, and indirectly for
members of the house Of lords. In
Norway they have school suffrage, and
IN Russia women heads Of households
vote for all elective officers and on all
local questions. In Austria Hungary.

other places, aud tax the full capacity
Of the Highland Park church. Ore
gon is rapidly settling up with the
Friends.
There is a large attendance from
Newberg. Already there are six
societies aud quarterly meetings has
herel ofore been held at Newberg
This is the first In Salem. The
Newberg meeting has 750 members.
REV. t. Q. BROWN,
pastor at Kokomo, Iud., is in charge
of the quarterly meeting, and is a
very able preacher. He gives the
hearer something to think about.
His words are fraught with great
refreshment to the faithful of this
denomination. A steady stream OF

and Oregon seems t. just suit their
habits of peaceful industry aud

DR., RICHARDSON OBJECTS.
Is Not This DictatiOn in City Politics
by the State House Land
Ring?

A Republican city committeeman
says DIR. Richardson, chairman of
the Republican city committee, op.
posed placing the call for the RepuL-
lican primaries in the columns of
The JOURNAL. The chairman
would not give his reasons, except
that he did not wish to recognize
this paper in the placing of the
notice, and used all the influence OF
his position against it.
AS THE JOURNAL never knowing
ly reflected upon, or did DIR. Rich
ardson any injury, personal, politi-
cal or otherwise, reporter was sent
to ascertain the reasons for his hos.
tility, and why he should seek TO
use his position to attack THE jour.
NAL and its friends. No reason
could be learned. From more
than close friend it is ascertained
that the DOCTORS objections arose
from certain criticisms in these
columns on the state house land
ring in 1890. Does the Republican
city chairman wish to take up the
fight of the state house land ring :?
If he has any other good reasons
why he should object to the Repub-
lican readers of this paper having
the call of their primaries printed
in it's columns, these columns are
open for him to state them.

can be disposed of by next of court" "
Suppose you can't find anyone to
give better price ?"
awe shall make on effort to have

BIG BRIDGE B0Sn.
The Viewers Report No Bolts Loose
Two Snags DepOsiled-Needs
Painting.

1--WE the Commissioners" the
viewers appointed by the county
court to examine the big free bridge
at Salem, have reported. They rec
ommend further employment of
persons to find out" etc., whether
anything is the matter with the
bridge or not. Here is
THE REPORT.
1--WE first examined the substruct-
ure as well as we could with the
means at our command, and would
most respectfully recommend that
the court employ some person or
persons, properly prepared to do
such work, to ascertain whether the
high waters of 1S9O-9l have done
any damage in the shape of wash
ing out around the piers or founda-
ton of said structure, as we deem
this the most important feature of
the whole structure.
ave also discovered that there are
now two snags deposited around the
larger or east pile, that might cause
IA washout if not removed, and
would have tendency 20 entangle
more dnft-wu0d. We would there
fore recommend that said snags be
removed.
"Second - We have given the
superstructure pretty thorough
examination and find it in good
repair, except the tension of some
of the rods and lateral braces. They
need to be frightened so as to make
the strain more even, as we discov-
cred that some of the braces are
doing far more work than Others,
which causes a heavy vibration
when loads are passing over the
bridge. We find this equally neces-
sary to be done to both the steel
spans at each end of said bridge.
"And further, we beg leave to
report that we failed to find any
1uts and bolts missing in the whole
of said bridge. Those are all the
repairs that we deem necessary to
be made at present, except we would
recommend that next season the
said bridge be well painted with one
coat of some good mineral paint and
linseed oil well put on, and not to
be whitewashed again with iron
rust and water as before.
"And we would further recon-
mend that the court, in place of COLI
lracting, would employ some good
responsible man or men to do said
work."
