POLITICS INVOLVED.

Politics, party principles and
measures are not involved in the
present congressional election,
it is simply question of the per-
s3nal fitness of the candidates.
This is, ia substance, Mr..
Reames' appeal for republican
support. It will scarcely mis-
lead even the unthinking voter,
for it Is wholly false. It Is never
altogether true, even when the
contest is for some minor county
offee. In the present instance
the contest is for a member OF
congfess. Whoever is elected
will stand tor the principles and
policies Of his party. Should Mr..
keantes be successful it would be
heraIded to the whole country as
q democratic victory, as endorse
ment by popular vote of demo
cratic purposes. The democratic
candidate knows this. He would
make haste to claim a party tri-
umph. He knows he would.
He knows also that he would
strive to be a democrat among
democrats even though he would
owe his election to republicans.
1t is simply ignorance or sheer
demagogy that declares ''there is
no politics in this election.
It is possible that in the last
state election many republicans
voted for Mr.. Chamberlain be-
cause they failed to see the poll
tics involved. They see it now.
Oregon has democrat for gov
ernor. This fact is emphasized
by himself.
Let no one be thus beguilee
into supporting the democratic
nominee for congress. Party pur
poses and principles are th'
things of prime importance
The personal qualifications o
the candidates are OF secondar.
consideration. Fortunately til
republicans of the district hav
no reason. to fear from compari
son of either party purposes q
candidates.

NEWS FOR THE Afflicted.
AN ANNOUNCEMENT THAT WILL IN.
TEREST MANY.
DIR. Darrin, the Eminent Specialist, VIII
Visit Albany May 18th to August 1st-~
Many Know of His Modes OF
Treatment.
(Albany Herald.

(Albany Herald.)
While adverse to drawing the atten-
sion of our readers to any advertisement
which parrakes of medical character,
we feel more than justified in overriding
this objection with respect to the an.
nouncement of the visit of DR.. Darrin.
This far-tamed physician, lately from
Portland, who has achieved euch repu-
tation throughout the coast and the
Northwest the past sixteen yeare, has
been prevailed UPON, by urgent request
by many in this vicinity, to visit Albany,
as they coull not afford by their time
and business to consult him at his Offices
Portland. The doctor has at last con.
sented to visit this city TO accommodate
the sick aud afflicted, and his office Is at
the Revere hotel. Those wishing to see
the doctor will find it to their advantage
to consult him while here, and during
the first part OF his stay. as many re-
quire more than one treatment by cleo
tricity.
He comes laden with testimonials from
the. whole Northwest, and the authentic
reports of some of his cures seem moth
ing short OF miracles. So many thou
sands are already acquainted with his
mode of treatment, it seems unnecessary
to state that he uses little medicine in
the majority of cases and perfects his
cures by the wonderful powers OF cleo
tricity.
There are few ills to which the flesh is
heir, which cannot be relieved and gen
orally cured by DIR. Darren's electro mag
netic treatment, and cases that have re-
sisted the efforts of ordisary physicians
have yielded to his power. These cases
embrace almost every form of disease,
and, as said before no man, woman or
child need despair OF relief or cure while
DR.. Darren offers his Invaluable services.

In the last county election, |
soon after Mr.. Woodson was
nominated for county judge, word
was actively passed around that |
Mr.. Woodson was saloon man,
when in fact he was consistent,
high-rninded Christian gentle
man; member of the same !
church to which Mr.. Waters be-
longs. Mr.. Woodson was not a
frequenter OF saloons, and had
been all mis- life a strictly temper
ate man. Mr.. Woodson was not
man who would permit a wrong
impression to be circulated about
his opponent or neighbor.
In the city election last Mon
day the active battle was fought
in the Third ward, between Mr..
Waters, democrat, and Mr.. Col
bert, republican. Keeping in
view the political scheme, it is
not strange to say that as SOON as
lit was found that Mr.. Colbert
could not be induced to with
draw, leaving the field unob-
| structed for Mr.. Waters, word
was actively circMlated that Mr..
Colbert was a saloon man. The
fact is that Mr.. Colbert is good,
reputable. citizen, consistent
temperance man, and a member
of the same church that is Mr..
Waters. Mr.. McFadden was
not able to carry out his part oi
the scheme.
The saloon men grew suspic.
ious last year and wanted to look
up matters. They accused Mr.
McFadden of bad faith in moi
| using his strong influence in op
posing the work of Mr.. Waters,
so as to protect the saloons as
had been done for SO maAy years.
Mr.. McFadden pleaded that he
could not; that Mr.. Waters was
! doing the other line of the busi-
ness without his consent, and
5 asked the saloon men to stano
i, pat as before. The saloon MEL
: saw that Messrs. McFadden ane
Waters were working togethel
as intimately as "Siamesetwins, y
! and they distrusted Mr.. McFad
{ den and refused longer to be lee
by him. Mr.. McFadden became
:. exasperated at his inability te
control his part of the scheme
Il and announced. several month!

A Veterans Story.

Bath, N. Y. April 13th.-The first
consideration of the Conn andant and
officers in the conduct CT the Soldiers
and Sailors Home here Is the health
of the Veterans. Kidney Troubles are
the most common cause of ailment
very few of the old men escaping these
in some form or other
OF course the comrades do as much
as possible for themselves, and one or
the most popular and useful remedies
employed is Dodd's Kidney Pills,
which seem to be almost infalIible in
cases Of Kidney arrangements. Indeed
there are among the veterans several
who claim to owe their lives to Dodds
Kidney Pills.
For instance, A E. Ayers, who came
to the home from Minneapolis, Mimi,
was given up by four doctors in that
city. He had Bright's Disease, and
never. expected to live through it, but
his life was saved and his health re-
stored by Dodds Kidney Pills.
His experience has made the remedy
very popular among the men, and no
one who has used Dodd's Kidney Pills
for any Kidney Trouble has been dis
appointed.

leaders and the majority of the people
of the district had been hostile to the
