oSTEoPATHY.

The series of articles that have been
running in this column for some
months have been intended to awaken
the public to this new system which
is so rapidly sweeping away the old
doping methods OF alcohol and OPT
um Ne have scrupulously avoided
any form of fake advertising, lauding
cures and making monstrous claims.
An earnest effort has been made to
give the readers a correct idea of the
system. SO much Misrepresentation
by enemies is done. and so much mis-
understanding exists as to the nature,
extent and work of the system, that
something is necessary to correct
them. Any statement made in these
articles we shall gladly elucidate and
confirm to any who will call. We keep
on hand supplies of good literature
explaining the work of the system In
the various diseases, acute and chronic
which we shall gladly furnish on re-
quest We shall gladly interview any
who will call. These articles will be
discontinued now. to be resumed a
month or so later. Doctors Hoising-

PRAISES OREGON POEM.

The Westerner a literary maga-
zine published at Seattle, and edited
by Mrs. Ella Higginson. the well
known authoress and story writer
who formerly lived at Island City, in
Union county. Oregon, highly praises
the poem "Sacajawea," in the June
number and reprints it In full. ac-
companied by the following editorial
notice:
THE best thing which the Lewis
and Clark fair has brought out is "A
poem to 'Sacajawea," the Shoshone
Indian girl, who, carrying a babe up
on her back. guided those two daunt-
less explorers across the Rocky noun
tains, The poem was written by Bert
Huffman, editor of the East Ore
gonian, of Pendleton, Ore.
I'VE have been done to death on
'Sacajawea.' All that has been writ
ten about her and sung about her
and talked about her has added to
our weariness of her. Most of II has
been so exaggerated, so unreasona-
BILE, so silly. 1t is not her fault, poor
girl. She suffered and toiled and en-
dured and carried a torch through the
wilderness--and was abused by her
husband and ill-appreciated by Lewis
and Clark for her pains; and 1t is a
shame to make fool of her now.
"But out of all the literary riff-raff
on this subject, Mr.. Huffman's poem
rises strong. dignified, noble, inspir-
| ing. 1t is a poem that any living
author might be proud to have writ
ten: therefore it is the best thing
which the exposition has yet brought
| forth.
| at is a distinct and fine achieve
ment i'm western literature. 1t is
| lighted by the divine spark of inspir-
| alton. 1t is sufficient in itself to
| make the author famous. The poem
is printed in full with hearty con-
| gratulations to Oregon for possessing
an author of which any country
might be justly proud. The poem will
| be recited by Mrs. Bessie E. Pettin-
! ger, of Portland, on the unveiling OF
| the Sacajawea monument, at the
Lewis and Clark fair grounds, next
/ Thursday. July g."

HENEY's HANDS ARE CLEAN.

Although engaged in prosecuting
n venerable United States senator. in
the senator's own home. in the face
sf a sentiment and sympathy that has
been consuming at times. Francis ].
Heney who has just finished the
Mitchell case. comes out of the ordeal
with absolutely clean hands.
Not one word of pettifogging. not
one act that has been questionable,
not one word that was offensive to
the high court before which he APP
peared. he has conducted this histori
cal case in a manner that is peculiarly
honorable alike to himself and to the
great government and the fearless
president which he represents.
Although assailed by parasites who
sought to besmirch and ruin him in
the early stages of the trial. he kept
the even tenor of his way unscathed
and unafraid. Although abused by
press and public men for pursuing
the charges against Mitchell with zeal
and energy. he has done the duty as
signed to him. manfully, honorably,
stilfully, above board and has earned
a place among American prose cutors
that is indeed enviable.
When Heney came to Oregon every
body was against him. They looked
upon him as an interloper, a scape-
goat who was seeking notoriety
through the prosecution of an hon
ored public official. But as the tria'
progressed and the wonderful meshes
of the case against Mitchell and his
associates unfolded. and the grea'
wheels of government rolled through
the courts displaying the volume ant
immensity of the task before Heney
this hatred turned into admiration fo
the man and his fearless spirit.
1t dawned upon the people of Ore
gon that this was the government o
the United States doing this grea
and startling task. through Heney
and that he must of necessity be
man of no mean ability and honor t
be selected for this historical crisi
I'm Oregons public service.
His conduct and his achievemen
has borne out the highest estimatio
of Heney, ever formed by even hi
most ardent admirer. He leaves Ore
gon with clean hands and an honora
BILE reputation.

field on the E. W. Garren farm north
of the city which destroyed two stacks
of hay containing about 80 tons. 1t
is supposed the fire originated from
the pipes of hunters, who were prob

I'm the faith that, although
life is a mystery, it is not a
muddle. for God is in his world,
bringing order out of apparent
chaos; in the reverence which
trusts and obeys God, mingled
with the affection which clings
10 him and rejoices in him; in
the will set to do Gods will and
have a little share in Gods
work of healing, helping. con-
quering love, is found the secret Z
of a courage which no danger
can daunt, a patience which no q
delays can exhaust, and a con-
fidence which no disappoint- Z
ments can destroy. {

A Successful Nut Lock.

The Universal Nut Lock Com
pany, Mexico, Mo-, is IL new en-
terprise. They manufacture the
Universal Nut Lock for bolts. NJ.
p. Carpenter, of Mexico, is the
patentee of the device, and there
are other Mexico people with cap
ital back of the company. The
Nut Lock is one of the simplest
devices you ever saw. Used in
place of a washer on bolt, the
nut, when turned tight, is locked
and can never loosen. A Nut
Lock has been used for sometime
on one of the MESSAGE printing
presses, in most trying place
and it holds as though it were
grown there. The lock is the
thing, and soon we look for it to
be in use on all railroads, in Sc.
curing the ends of rails, and on
freight and passenger cars, and on
all machinery where there are bolts
with nuts that it is desired should
be held where they are wanted.
The Nut Lock device is all right;
it has a fortune for its owners,
and we congratulate them and are
glad that Mexico is the home of
the company.
The following companies have
requested samples and are now us
ing them making tests:
The Port Arthur Route,
The Union Pacific,
The Wabash,
The Chicago & Alton,
The Mo, Pacific,
The NJ, X. & T.,

A Runaway Couple.

The following item S quoted
from the Centralia Guard:
Married ,at Miami, 1. T. July IA,
at $3.50 p. m, Miss Lavinia F.
Mitchell and Mr.. Ray Miller, both
of Audrain. The wedding was a
finishing touch of an elopement
planned since March and put into
execution on Monday, July 10. The
bride is a daughter of Geo. S. Nit
chell of Audrain county, near this
place. On the day of the elOpe-
men, the young lady went over to
Mr.. Standifer's, a neighbor, to
make n brief call, Mr.. Miller met
her there and they got into his
buggy and drove away about 8
o'clock at night. Mr.. Standifer at
once notified Mr.. Mitchell who
telephoned to Centralia and Mexico
to have them intercepted as the
young lady was but l6 years of
age, and he strenuOusly objected to
the marriage. The letter also con-
tanned the route taken by the cou-
pie. After leaving here they drove
through to Fulton and from there
to Jefferson City where they left
the horse and buggy and took the
Missouri Pacific to Parsons, Kan. ,
thence to Miami, l. T., where the
marriage was cOnsumated. Mr.. Nit
chell intended prosecuting the
young man, but he has at last be-
come reconciled, and will let the
matter rest. He cOntemplates sell
ing his farm and expects to move
to Clark, Mo-, where his son is
practicing medicine. The young
lady has host of friends here
who wish her we'll, she having
attended our high school the past
season. The young couple have
not yet decided what they will do ,
nor signtied their intention of re-
turning. The Guard extends to
them its best wishes for a long aud
happy welded life.

A Discussion of Judicial Murder

lntes these laws he must suffer the
consequences; there is no escape,
either by tears, ,protestations, prom
ises or supplication to deity or
Savior.
Man must pay the full penalty
for his own misdeeds, the greatest
of which is that Of deliberately
taking the life of his fellow man,
and must bear the punishment un-
til he learns the lesson, cease to do
evil and learn to do we'll. Courts
have no moral right to impose
physical punishment to the extent
of death when they have no power
over the spiritual to give a life in
its place.
One of the worst features of the
death penalty is that Of the execu.
ton of innocent people, many of
which have been developed after it
has been too late to make amends
Take the case of Kiser and Helm
sey of st. Louis who were con.
demned to death for the murder of
Il Mr.. Brown of st. Louis during
administration of Gov. Stone, who
cOmmuted their sentence seven diff
ferent times, the last time to life
Imprisonment. There seemed to
have been some unseen power at
work that told Gov. Stone that
these men were not guilty.
They remained in prison several
years until the real murderer con.
fessed on his deathbed that he
did the murder. Many similar
eases have occurred within the
last few years, which should hor.
rify society against all such laws,
as that of taking life for life, II
practice of thousands of years ago.
We have over $1,000 preachers
in this country, paid to teach
Christianity, but we rarely ever
hear a sermon preached touching
the crime of judicial murder.
