OUR APPROPRIATIONS.
J. X. Weatherford, the man WI

j. X. Weatherford, the man who
is running for congress against
Oregon's friend, Binger HERMANN,
gave the people of Corvallis last
week the greatest exhibition OF
pure unadulterated gall ever wit
messed. He seems possessed of
the idea that he is a God or else is
in direct communication with the
Deity. When he says, that if he is
elected to represent the people Of
This state in congress he would
Immediately secure appropriations
sufficient TO cause the willamette
to be made navigable as far as Eu-
gene at all times of The year, he
shows that he is insincere. He
mu take t ,e people of Cor
wallis for lot of chumps to be-
lieve that he can secure the first
year greater appropriations than
Binger Hermann can. He also
stated that tn Willamette river
was in a worse condition for
steamboaling now than it was
twenty years ago, and init
mates that the presence
OF Binger Hermann in congress
was the cause of it. Mr.. Wealh h =
erlord forgets that he was talking
to Mr.. Hermann's friends. There
is no dust on B.nger. He is one
of the hardest workers in Wash
ington, and by reason OF his con
tinued service on the rivers and
harbors committee he has BEEN
enabled to accomplish for Oregon
a world of good. Bingcr Her
mann and appropriations have be-
come almost synonymous terms

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 thatwhen these arel
deranged the organs which they supply with
nerve hud are also deranged. When 1t is re q
membered that 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
paralyzcd portion, it will be understood how
the arrangement of the nerve centers wilIl
cause the arrangement of the various organs
which they supply With nerve force.
Two-thirdS of chronic diseases are due to-
the imperfect action Of the nerve centers at
the base of the brain, not from derange-I
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 foIl
over 20 years, and has made many fmportant1
discoveries in connec tion with 1t, chief among1
them being the facts contained in the above
statement, and that the ordinary methods on
treatment are wrong .rAll headache. dizzi-I

curious facts about the above ground

OF the underground shaft.
These structures have been discover
ed this year In perhaps twenty locali-
ties In New York state and a half-dozen
In New Jersey. They are quite excep-
t!onal, for previous TO this year they
had been reported from only two To-
calities In the United States. and cnly
one specimen was known I'm museums

museum at Washington.
one brief notice OF them cnly occurs
In the entire literature OF cicada sep

are built at least one month before the
insect escapes from them. The object
OF their building. what purpose they
serve or why they are so exceptional ia
entirely unknown, and no satisfactory
reasons can be assigned for their con-
struction.
In one locality, observed at New Bal-
