Hoosier drill. know that there is
none better than it and never
has been. We have just 8 OF

cheaper than they have been
sold before. First come, fret

the degree Bachelor of Science. He
took for the theme Of his oration
Monuments He spoke with ease
and pointed to some Of the monu
ments of lie.
Monuments are the expression of
national ideals. In them is u irrored
the character Of It's people. They
mark q nations progress in civiliza-
Ition and foreshadow Its destiny.
Two fundamental ideas are involved
in monuments-lioerty and service.
The y is the source, the other the
condition. Liberty begets, service
fosters. Monuments are born OF lib
erty. They thrive only in.the soil OF
freedom. Where do monuments most
abound? IN lands Of darkness and OPP
~pression9 Among The down-trodden
people Of Russia where freedom is
unknown? Go rather to France or
England or America, where liberty
has been purchased In the life blood
of their choicest sons, and freedom is
cherished as mans most sacred hertz
age. There will you find monu-
ments, and upon them inscribed
names dearsto every friend of liberty.
Upon still other monuments are in
scribed names either OF warriors or
Of statesmen, yet names destined to.

day Afternoon.

day AFTERNOON.
From Il numerlcal stand point the
Epwortl League rally Of the Mitchell
district Tuesday Afternoon, which
assent led ia the Methodist church,
could not be counted as very strong,
but from the excellent papers pre-
sented 6y the speakers it was a most
successful affair.
The convention was in charge of
Rev. 6. d. Brown, OF Salem, as
chairman OF the district. The first
paper presented was that Of Miss
frankie Kelley, of Woonsocket, who
spoke very Interestingly of ssThe Up
worth Leaguer's Conservation and
What Ought to Come Of IT."
Rev. James Crowthers discoursed
on ''The Young Mans Opportunity
in the Twentieth Century," The
speaker referred to the many fields
that are open for the young men ana
N of today, and in the prepara-
lion for the occupancy Of places of
honor and trust he urged and eau
toned to have the spirit of Christ in
the heart.

accomplished and what it may accom-
plish'' Afforded Prof. John L. Seaton

features OF The society, and showing
what had been done in the past by
this great organization of Young men
and women.

good ideas looking toward founding
such an organization.
L. 81. II. Weak's paper vas on s'The
Need and the Opportunity of the
Epworth League on Mitchell Dis
trict." Mr.. Weak said that the
League needed today ''the endue-
ment Of power, the vital touch of
flame that will consume the dross
and the sel6shness, and lend mo-
mentum to a consecrated and pei
fected workmanship OF human intel
ligence and ambition, for in dealing
with the needs Of the Epworth
League we are dealing fundamentally
with the needs Of individuals, and
when we solve the problem of these
we shall have solved the problems Of
he others
Miss Jessie Green presented a paper
on 'sWhat Can the Social Depart
ment Of the League do to Conserve
the Young Convert" Putting it
tersely, she said "The social depart
ment may and should be an arm Of
the League, God used, to uplift and
hold and protect5the weak a depart

"How to Make the Wheel Go" was
presented by Miss Gertrude Chappell
in which she offered some valuable
suggestions for making the work
more successful.
A committee reported on a plan for
the organization Of a district League,
the object Of which will be to hold
summer meetings in some grove that
will last a week OF ten days. The
suggestion met with a hearty approv-
al and 1T will. likely be organized for
next year.

Boy. Gun. Intestines.

The 12-year-old son of ]. Erp, mar
rowly escaped instant death by the
accidental discharge of rifle Sunday,
and the boy is now In critical condi-
ton with a bullet wound through his
stomach. The boy was engaged in
loading or unloading the gun when in
some manner the weapon was dis
charged and the bullet passed
through the stomach and came out
near the backbone. Drs. Campbell
and Stockton were summoned and
made an examination OF the wound
and found the intestines punctured
in 10 places. An operation of the
most delicate character was perform
ed. Unless inflammation sets in it
is believed that the lad has fair
chance of recovery.
Mr.. Erp is the keeper of the county
poor farm and the accident happened
there.-Grangeville Free Press.

the -leeoes this year were the best he
ever saw in Idaho and he has been
coming here for the past 20 years.
They are not only heavier, but the
wool is of better quality. Speaking
of the scab he said that he had en-
countered but very little of it this sea-

ease in these parts is much less than
is generally supposed.-Boise Capital

1.-THE East Oregonian told the
truth about Baker City and Baker
county, in a recent editorial, which
hope will be reprinted by Baker City
papers, and studied by Baker City
people, until they change conditions
in that county by following its ad-
vice." said H. T. Booth, the well
known Baker City insurance man.
yesterday evening at the st. George.
Mr.-Booth referred to the editorial
review of Baker Citys diminishing
population. which appeared in a re-
cent issue of this paper in which the
East Oregonian said the reason
great increase in population has not
been experienced in Baker county
within the past five years. is the fact
that irrigation development, small
farming. diversified crops and inter-
nal Improvements and business open
ings have been neglected in the mad
rush to secure easy money from ten
derfoot investors in mining stocks
and other wildcat schemes.
"If Baker county had developed
vited a permanent class of settlers,
while she has been reaching for min
ing popularity and fame as a boom
mining center, she would certainly
have increased in population" said
Mr.. Booth.
1t is said by saloon men ana gam
blers that Baker is being depopulated
because of the high moral standards
now being enforced by Sheriff Brown
in closing gambling, and also in clos
ing saloons on Sunday. The state
ment of substantial men who have
been seen by the East oregonian,
emphatically deny this infamous as
sertion by the immoral elements.
The truth about Bakers decrease
in population lies in the fact that she
has not developed her resources, but
has been expending her forces in
reaching for easy money among in
vestors in mining stocks. The high
moral standards now in existence
there will increase the population by
inviting a substantial class of people
in search of good schools and good
moral surroundings for homes.

schen Vindicated.

In December, 1902. in an official
statement, Secretary Hitchcock de-
scribed the Oregon timber frauds in
precisely the same manner of Father
ScheI two years before, that men
were being shipped in under contract
masquerading as settlers, who took
out entries and turned them over to
the capitalists.
About this time, too, Binger Her
mann was succeeded as commissioner
of the general land office by Com
missioner Richards, who commended
Father Schell highly for his work and
repeatedly asked his assistance.
With Secretary Hitchcock aroused
and the president conversant with
the facts, and new land commits
sioner, it was now evident that Father
Schell was about to succeed. And,
though he has in no way called at
tention to the important part he
played in the reform, he feels great
amount of vindication in the removal
of Hall and the Indictment of Sena-
tor Mitchell and Congressman Her
mann.

they told him they had all signed con-
tracts with a railroad to take out tim
Der entries and turn them over to the
railroad. They were promised jobs
in logging camp AS compensation.
This fact was reported to President
Roosevelt.
Finally Hall brought a case before
his grand jury, but the defendant was
discharged. Father Schell quickly de-
clared two witnesses had been spirit
ed out of the state by Hall-an Of
fense made the ground for Halls re-
moval later. Hall replied in a letter
to Father Schell suggesting three sec
tions of the federal statutes upon
which he could be prosecuted. The
letter, also, was published by Father
Schell

tOTBT1glam Says
MANY PHYSICIANS PRESCRIBE
lydia E Pinkllass,rS
Vegetable Compound

The wonderful power of Lydia e.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases Of womankind is not be-
cause it is stimulant, not because It
Is palliative, but simply because it Is
the most wonderful tonic and recon-
structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the generative organs, positively
curing disease and restoring health and
vigor.
Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts Of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures and physicians
who have recognized the virtue Of
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it Is due.
If physicians dared to be frank and
open, hundreds of themwould acknowl-
edge that they constantly prescribe
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound in severe cases of female ills, as
they know by experience it can be re-
lied upon to effect cure. The follow
ing letter proves it.
DR.. 8. 6. Brigham, of Brigham
Park. Eitchburg, Mass, writes:
at gives me great pleasure to say that
have found Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound very efficacious, and often pre-
scribe 1t in my practice for female difficulties.
"My Oldest daughter found it very beneA-
cial for uterine trouble some time ago, and my
| youngest daughter is now taking IL for a fe-
male weakness, and is surely gaining In health
and strength.
"I freely advocate it as a most reliable spe-
cifc in all diseases to which women are sub
ject, and give it honest endorsement"
Women who are troubled with pain
full or irregular menstruation, bloating
Tor fiatulence), leucorrhna, falling, in
fammation or liberation of the uterus,
ovarian troubles, that bearing-down
feeling. dizziness, faintness, indiges-
ton, nervous prostration or the blues,
should take immediate action to ward
off the serious consequences, and be
restored to perfect health and strength
by taking Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound, and then write to Mrs.
Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, for further
free advice. No living person has had
the benefit of wider experience in
treating female Ills. She has guided
thousands to health. Every suffering
woman should ask for and follow her
advice If she wants to be strong and
we'll.
