Chamberlain Cough Rem

"In my opinion Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy is the best made
for cclds," says Mrs. Cora Walk
err of Porterville, Cal. There is
no doubt about it's being the best.
No other will cure a cold so quick

are good reasons why it should
be preferred to any other. The

wichita . Fast Track.

The talk that the track at Wichita,
Kan, is far inferior to the average
eastern tracks does not carry much
force with those who remember that in
the fall Of 1899 Joe Patchen and John
r. Gentry met in a race on 1t and that
the pair Of great stations went the
fastest race over it paced by them that
season. Joe Patchen was the winner,
and, although he was not the horse he
was two years before, when he made
his record of 2:0lA, he paced the
Wichita track in 2:03 and 2:0215. In
only one other race did Patchen beat
2:O3 that season, and that was in New
York, where he won a heat in 2:02%.
That performance alone would stamp
the track on which Cresceus went his
great mile as one Of unusual excellence

Gov. A. B. Whites message to
the Legislature is different from
Gov. Whites political speeches
which he made before the last
election. The difference is SO
great a reader can hardly realize
it is possible for the same man
to make such changes in his talk
in so short a time. In his mes
sage the Governor is telling the
truth; in his speeches-well-he
was telling fibs.

Suppose some playwrite had staged a play
in three acts in which the leading character,
alderman, becomes insane, and is sent by the
naayor under escort of two citizens, to the dis
aant asylum. The patient, becoming obstreper-
GUS his escort takes him to a saloon to calm
MIN with libations of wine. They all become
SO besuddled that arriving at the asylum, none
could tell which was the lunatic. The director
wired the mayor for directions. He answered,
giving the name. The operator decapitalized
and compounded it's two syllables making the
name mean "the tall one" The director
measured the three and clapped the tallest one
in a cell. The immured was one of the escort
The alderman went home. The wife of "the
tall one" after waiting eight days for the re
turn of her husband, was told by he real lunitie
her husband had gone mad and he had taken that
him to the asylum. In the third act it is founG
that the confinement had made the sane man
insane and the lunatic was found to be INSULT
GENTLY unbalanced to warrant his confinemet

of fancy and yet it is what actually happened

AS TO WEATHER.
No Snow on the Peak Makes Old In.
habitant Scent an Early Spring.

Indian summer weather with
temperature ranging from 81 to 60,
has been in vogue for several days.
The warmest day was Friday,
with streaming sunshine and the
thermometer at 60 in the shade.
Saturday was about as good with
an afternoon of brilliant sunshine
and summer heat. Gardeners are
all afeld and the earlier vegetables
are being planted everywhere. Old
inhabitants predict an early spring
as they point to Mary's Peak and
invite attention to the lack of snow
on the summit. There is less snow
there now than is often present on
the peak in May or June, they say.
But for week or two during the
winter during the winter has there
been snow Eenough to cover the
summit as extensively as is usually
the condition all winter long. These
conditions are set out as presaging
a very early spring. Since the abb
sence of snow on the peak indi-
Gates that the snow line is unusual
1y high, it looks like unusual
springs conditions might be expect
ed, and that the old weather prphet
representations might come to
fruition. In any event, present
conditions are both pleasant and
welcome. Last February it rained
every day but two; last March, ev-
cry day but one.

THE GOVERNORS CRITIC.

A writer. too tirnid to sign it,
contributes to the Eugene Guard
an article criticizing Governor
Chamberlain for the appointment
of L. T. Harris to the new judg-
ship. His opening sentence is,
THE appointment of L. 7. Harris
by Governor Chamberlain is very
unsatisfactory to the democrats
generally" Another sentence is,
t.There are able and worthy dem
ocratic attorneys in this district,
who are well qualified for the place
and who were entitled to the ap-
pointment."
1t is usual for the average man
to imagine that as he believes, SO
everybody else believes, or ought to
believe. This is especially true OF
the kind pftmen who rush into
printen errands like the above. 1t
is true "that there are able and
Worthy democratic attorneys in the
district" whom the governor might
have appointed, but it is not true
that they were entitled" to the
place any more than it is true that
w. J. Furnish was entitled to be
governor instead of Chamberlain.
They were no more entitled to il
than was Mr.. Potter and not James
Hamilton entitled to be elected
Judge last June. The same is true
with reference to Mr.. A. G. Wood
cock six years ago. The non-par.
tisanship of the 1900 republicans
who twice. supported democratic
Judge Hamilton over his republican
opponent set an example in non
partisan judiciary that was an hon
orable precedent for Governor
Chamberlain to follow The 1000
republicans who voted for Cham
berlain rather than Furnish anc
helped to make Chamberlain, no
Furnish, governor,-tbey set al
example in non-partisanship tina
made it high-minded in Governo.
Chamberlain to go once outside hi
own party to make an appointment
The governor S position in th'
whole matter is lofty and his critic
and their criticisms will only max,
him friends. When Judge Nc
Fadden, who of all men had a righ
to be disappointed, wrote lette
of fine endorsement to the governo
and another of congratulation t
Judge Harris, he set an example il
citizenship worthy of emulation a
