While from a proud tower in the town
Death looks giganticaliy down.
There open fanes and gaping graves
- awn level with the luminous wavesi
But not the riches there that lie
In each IDOLS diamond eye
Not the gayly jeweled dead,
Tempt the waters from their bed;
For no ripples curl alas,
Along that wilderness Of glass;
No sWelings tell that winds may be
Upon some far off happier sea;
No heavings hint that winds have been
On seas less hideously serene!
But 10, a stir is in the air!
The wave-there is a movement there!
AS if the towers had thrust aside,
In slightly sinking, the dull tide;
AS if their tops had feebly given -
A void within the filmy heaven!
The waves have now a redder glow,
The hours are breathing faint and low;
And when. amid no earthly moans,='
Down, down that town shall settle hence
Hell, rising from a thousand thrones,
Shall do it reverence.
j., EDGAR Allan Poe.

Do you remember the little things tha:
gave us so much pleasure when we were
young? With what zest did we sit downto
the table after our play was over and eat the
nlush and milk our mother put before us.
But as we get older it takes more to give
It's pleasure. Mush and milk no longer
tastes good to us, and our digestion may be
impaired. The best advice we can give to
such a person Is to tone up the stomach with
DR.. PlerCe's Golden Medical Discovery. 1t
is natures most valuable and health giving
agent--made without the use ofalcohol. II
contains roots, herbs and barks, and is the
concentration of natures vitality as found

a history which speaks we'll for it because
it was given to the public by Dr. K. V.
Pierce, founder Of the I:lvalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute at Buffalo, N. ", nearly
forty years ago, and has since been sold by
druggists in ever increasing quantities.

Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has
proved such reliable blood remedy and
tonic that it often en- Joys the confidence OF

creased sales year by year coming from the
recommendations of those who have tried

Aliens Are State Charges.

From the annual report of the COM

has just been issued, it is learned that
q per cent OF the inmates OF the insane

and Nevada with 81 per cent, are the
only states in the Union that make a
more dscreditable showing than Ore

enly 6 per cent placed opposite their
names, are the lowest on the list.
Tennessee and Alabama have only
per cent, each, while Virginia and West
Virginia are burdened with but per

by Secretary Hay to the powers, based
% this information, with the result that
they have now all positively disclaimed
any such intention.
In q long cablegram received at the
State Department today from the
American Embassy at Paris, the French
government reiterates it's position and
assurances in favor of preservation of
China's administrative entity and ter
sitorial integrity. This practically COM
pletes the answers from all the powers
TO Secretary Hays latest note.
The American Government was
prompted to take this action by certain
reports from its embassies and legation
abroad that the powers were expecting
TO divide China among themselves after
the war. The inquiry of Secretary Hay
has checked whatever scheme there

Portland, Jan. 2l.-What is supposed
to have been plan to hold up the O. r.
& N. eastbound train, known as the
Spokane Flyer, was partially accomp-
llshed Just after the train left the East
Portland station tonight shortly after 6
o'clock.
Four masked men boarded the rear
platform of the last car, known as the
"Walla Walla sleeper" at the east side
depot. The track enters dark ravine
a few hundred feet south Of the depot
and the train had no sooner turned into
the gulch than four men entered the
smoking compartment and commanded
the occupants to throw up their hands.
The thieves proceeded to go through
their victims from whom they secured
about 500 and a gold watch.
When these had been robbed the
bandits stopped the train and jumped
off, disappearing into the heavy under
growth along the sides of the gulch un-
der the East Twenty, Eighth street
bridge.
Word was sent to the city and county
authorities who went at once to the
bridge, and quickly organized posse
which started to search for the thieves.
Later reports say that two men pass
ed into the sleeper while the other two
relieved the occupants Of the smoker of
their jewelry, $3.50 in money and a
draft for $3.50. The occupants of the
smoker were Ben L. Norden, Dan J.
Conan, Edward Duffy, all of Portland
r. B. Sinnot, of The Dalles, and J. D.
OF Chicago.
The two which went into the main
part of the car met the Pullman con.
luctor, John Hayes, whom they re-
ieved Of $75 in money and forced him

with the other victims.
The robbers did not modest the other

heir nerve failed them. Instead,

| ping facilities, great portion OF the
| Columbia basin is restricted to one in
adequate railroad line that holds all
outgoing and incoming freight at an
unre easonable high rate; compelling the
producer and the consumer of this vast
territory to pay exorbient rates for
everything that goes over its lines,
costing in most instances more to ship
freight from one to two hundred miles
over these roads than to ship the same
freight across the continent, where
there is competition. There ought
surely to be some relief possible, seeing
that the legislature of these affected
states, and especially Oregon, has
given up trying to put any restriction
on the railroads. Some years ago the
state supported a railroad commission
until it became mere farce. The COM
mission riding on the different COM
panies lines in their special ca put
them in poor position to try to exact
any reduction on railroad fares for the
relief OF their constituents, consequently
the law was repealed. Since which
time the companies have their own way
about freight and especially on feeders
to the main line. We are particularly
at their mercy. A short time aince |
was in Portland and knowing that We
had to pay high prices for stock salt, an
article I chapced to be in need of, in
quired of a wholesale dealer the price
of such salt and was informed that it
was SIS per ton. l asked him to asser-
tain the freight per ton to Heppner. and
was informed that in any less quantities
than carload lots it was 66 cents per
cwt. or $l3 per ton. II seemed to me
that under such circumstances it is
about time that the people begin to
wake up to their interests. Talk about
your good country, don't believe there
s an agricultural and commercial center
10 the land that produces and ships so
much as Morrow county, that has to
pay the exorbient freight rates that she
1oes, and still her people do reason
.bly we'll. Wouldn't it seem that our
county officials in the face of such treat
nent to our people would hold out
.gainst snch corporations and make
hem pay just tax as individuals not
lear so able have to do? But those in
highest positions in our county ride
'ver the companies lines on a pass
md turn deaf ear 70 the wants and
necessities of the people. Who are we
o look for relief?

FoNUD BED ROCK.
A Pleasing Discovery Made by M. G
 P. Workmen on the New Bridge.

A discovery was made a day or two ago that will add a little more work to the building of the new M. P. bridge across Salt river at this place, but which will have the effect of making t.le structure vastly more substantial when it is finally completed.
 While driving the piling in the cyl finders of the sixth pier, the spikes struck something hard and refused to be sunk any deeper. The workmen had every reason to believe that bed rock had been struck and to prove their suppositiOn, an excavation was made to a depth of three feet below the end of the cylirder. At this point solid bed rock was encountered and the cylinders will now be sunk to it.. and their height will be corresponding ly increased on top. The cylinders will then be connected from the top to the bed rock. making a pier as solid as the rock itself and with such piers a repetition of the Santa F'e disaster will be impossible. The rock is about twenty three feet Ielow the surface of the river bed, and the remaining five piers will be constructed with it as a foundation. The work is progressing satisfactorily and the bridge will prob ably be completed before the summer is over.
