question here forces itself upon us;
it is, from whence and how was this ma
teria1 brought here? One may readily
answer, ice and water, as given us by our
text books, but do these materials not
suggest themselves their mode of convey
ance? 1t IS scarcely possible for us to
imagine the vast field of loan in Ne
braska to have been carried in any other
way than by water. So, too, the quartz,
gravel and the different beds of sand, so
carefully assorted as to size and weight,
could scarcely be so delicately arranged
by other than water. But when we come
to the gravel and boulders, and blocks or
boulders many of them of great weight,
we cannot rest with water but some other
carrying machine resting in or upon the
water is necessary. Nature has given us
ice fields and bergs, floating upon the
waters as ships upon the sea. These were
the vessels, our gravel and boulders and
larger material the cargo. The gravel
and small boulders were picked up in the
bays or on the seastore, where they have
been rolled about for ages by the dashing
waters. The slabs of rock which we
have called blocks Or bou1ders have been
torn from their bed in some cases, for in
one case near here some years ago, there
was found a line of granite i'll blocks
stretching over 100 feet in length. By
its side was string of blocks of slate of
equal length, close together, with quartz
ite scattered here and there alongside.
These lay in the ground as pavement and
apparently deposited as they were taken
from their place of deposit.
As to where this material came from we
do not know exactly, but the course of
the continental drift has been from the
north, southwark. git must be so in this
case, for to the south and to the east and
west we have high. elevations, which. from
the low location of this material in the
| valley would forbid other direction than
from the north. As we'll, 80 far as known,
! no rock of such antiquity is found in
western Oregon. I'm Nebraska the near
est location of such rock is several hun.
dred miles away, but the conditions here
suggest nearer place, prohably J. western
Washington.
The position in which these large rocks
are found suggests slow and quiet de-
post. They also suggest1that this was the
latest and last effort of the glacial epoch.
1t is to be hoped that some of the finer
and larger blocks. will be preserved, for
as time wings its way and population be-
comes larger, with few of these monu-
ments remaining, those preserved will be
of no littlezvalue.to the student 1..of the flu

We FURNISH our readers the re-
port of w. t. Branch, the bank
expert, who completed his labors
in connection with the examina-
tion of records in the Hamilton,
Job & Go. banking institution of
this city. The report was given
to an advisory committe composed
wholly Of interested deposltors,
by whom it was unanimously
adopted The report shows that
there were no, evidences of fraud
to be found within the archives of
the bank, and the only cause for
criticism was the loose manner in
which the Job brothers conducted
their affairs. From this report we
CLEAN the; opinion that there
was q no intention of wrong do
ing on the part Of the brothers
and that their failure was due
wholly to the strlngency of the
money market and to mismanage-

MYSTERIES!
The Nervous System the Seat
of Life and Mind. Recent
Wonderful Discoveries.

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
all the organs OF the body are under the con-
troll OF the nerve centers. located in or near
the base of the brain, and that when these are
deranged the organs which they supply with
nerve fluid are also deranged. When 1t is re-
membered that a serious injury to the spinal
cord will cause paralysis of the body below
the injured point, because the nerve force is
prevented by the injury from reaching the
paralyzed portion, it will be understood how
the arrangement of the nerve centers will
cause the arrangement of the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
TwO-thfrdS OF chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action of the nerve centers at
the base OF the brain, not from derange-
ment primarily originating in the organ it
treating these diseases is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centers which
are the cause of the trouble.
DR.. FRANKLIN MILES, the celebrated spe-
cialiSt, has profoundly studied this subject FOR
over 20 years, and has made many important
discoveries in cOnnec tfon with it, chief among
them being the facts contained in the above
statement, and that the ordinary methods of
treatment are wrong. All headache, .dizzi-
ness, dullness, confusion, pressure. blues,
mania. melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, St.
Vitus dance. etc., are nervous diseases no
matter how caused. The wonderful success Of
DR.. Miles Restorative Nervine Is due to the
fact that 1t is based on the foregoing principle.
Dr. MILES RESTORATIVE NERvINE Is sold by
all druggists on positive guarantee, or sent
direct by DR.. MILES MEDICAL Co., Elkhart,

THE.GLAcIAL DRIFT.

Another feature of geological in
terest in this part of the Willamette
Valley is the many large, blocks or
bou1ders found scattered here and there
in the valley, but more generally near the
base of the hills west of the river. These
rocks are of foreign 7origin. .and so far as
known to the writer, but little attention
has been given them publicly. They
are also mementoes of the glacial period
monuments marking the stranding or
wreck of the vehicle which con-
veyed them during the movement of
the Drift, Then, too, with other mate
rial brought and deposited during this
period, of the 1eveling and smoothing
and the changes wrought, was of the
greatest utility to Agriculture, and to-
ward the fame this valley has obtained.
It is then of these tramp rocks and other
deposits at the time, we give a brief de-
scription, aided by observations in other
fields in days agone. '7
Drift Material.
In the great fields of drift material
covering the larger portion of Northern
United States there will naturally be
some diversity in the material of those
fields, first, through distance from native
bed to final deposit, and second, distance
longitudinally, furnishing change in
the kind ofrock, but the agency used in
conveyance doubtless win be the same.
The material here so far as known is
gravel, loan and boulders. The gravel
contains variety Of rock such as gran
lite, Jasper and other metamorphic rocks,
together with a variety of ancient igneous
rock The gravel runs into bou1ders,:
well rounded, fairly smooth whether
taken from the river bed or from beneath
its somewhat heavy cover in the valley.
