FOOTBALL TALK NOW
OCCUPYING ATHLETES

With the advent of the college sea-
son next month football talk has
been revived by college men and 9th
er enthusiasts of the gridiron.
OF course at present all colleges
are to turn out first class elevens.
Coach Stagg of the University of
Chicago has a promising bunch of
candidates and with the old men of
the varsity is certain to be repre-
scented by better eleven than that
which wore the maroon last fall.
Sheldon, the plucky little full back,
will captain the team.
Michigan, while the college has lost
several of last years championship
team, nevertheless has material for
"a strong aggregation and the Wolver-
inc school will be in the running
for western championship honors.
Wisconsin has Il bunch of good men
remaining and will put up a stiff
fight. The loss of Coach King may
to a certain extent lower the Cardi-
nails chances for the championship
represent the Madison institution.
Northwestern, Illinois, Minnesota,
Perdue, Indiana, and Iowa, the other
members of the big nine will also
turn out stiff teams, and some lively
battles on the gridiron are promised.
Training will begin at several of
the cOlleges in few weeks and with
the opening of school in September
the sport will be in full swing.

Counterfeit Five Dollars.

The secret service has discovered
that some one is raising 81 bills to s.
by a clever method of changing the
figures, and unless they are closely
examined will pass unnoticed. 1t
has also been discovered that many
INSCRIPTIONS dealers are refilling the
bottles of the celebrated Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters and offering them to
the public as the genuine. These i'm
itations have no merit and are so
dangerous to your health that in or
der to protect the public the proprie-
tors of this famous medicine have
adopted a private stamp which is
placed over the neck of each bottle.
Please observe that the stamp is I'M
broken when purchasing. The Bit
ters is a specific remedy for such all
ments as fiatulency, indigestion,
belching, nervousness, dyspepsia and
liver and kidney troubles. Try it.

3. The British and Japanese navies
together number AZ armor-clads of

Assuming that the United States

concludes that no combination of
naval powers could be made strong
enough to destroy British sea power.

The fame of the medical staff of

Dr. j. Alvin Horne as president, Is
positively unmatched in the state by
that of any other body of medical spe-
ciaIists. There is good reason for this
they cure the most desperate chronic
cases after they have been abandoned
by other physicians as incurable, and
their high professional reputation is
therefore merited.
These physicians treat a certain
class of diseases and confne their
practice to them alone.
They treat and cure all chronic, ner-
vous and organic diseases of both men
and women.
Their methods of diagnosis and
treatment are scientifically in adj
vance of all ordinary methods in med
icine and surgery. They are masters
of all pelvic weaknesses and diseases,
as they affect the male and female,

Two Billions i'm the Harvest Moon

An expert has made an estimate of
the value of the cereal harvest of
1902, based on the government crop
report, given to the press last week.
This report indicates the size of the
crop in bushels as follows:
Corn ................-. ,422, O00, 900
Wheat OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. 634,OOO,0UO
oats .................. oOo,OOU,OOO
Total .............3, 1852, DOC, 900
The experts estimate of the value
of this crop of cereals is S2,0OO,O00,O00.
If the governments forecast is real
lied this will be the largest total pro-
duction of cereals ever recorded in
the United States. 1t will exceed by
more than 425, OOO,O 900 bushels the ag-
gregate of the tremendous crops of
corn, wheat and oats in 1900.
If the estimate of the value of this
crop at $1,000, 100000 is approximate
" correct, it will exceed by at least
a half billion dollars the best grain
harvest gathered in any previous
year by American farmers.
The farmers ought to be prosper
Gus under such conditions, and would
be exceedingly so were it not for the
trusts that are already scheming to
absorb the large share of the surplus
above the cost of production.
Whatever prosperity accrues to the
farmer from his crops is due to the
favoring skies and to Him who doeth
all things we'll" But the republican
politicians will be quick to assure the
tiller of the soil that 'the party
brought it about.

JOHNS FOR GOVERNOR.

Hon. c. A. Johns. Of Baker City, has
announced his candidacy for the gov.
ernorship Of oregon before the Repub.
lican state convention, which meets
April I'd. Mr.. Johns said:
Il have not made any promise
or pledge. and will not make any
promise or pledge which, in the event
OF success. would in the least compro
mise my Official integrity"
The above reads mighty fine, and
Mr.. Johns has some record to back NJ
his assertion that he will go unpledged
He was a member OF the state text
book commission, appointed by Geer
and proved incorruptible.
The state is badly In need OF the ser
vice of It's most incorruptible men IN
every department. While II has many
such, as politics goes, there is always
room for more.
