The reason is that germs are vegeta-

There lies the great value of Liquo-

These are the known germ diseases.

are destroyed, the disease must end.

A VICTIM OF PREJUDICE.

It must be a sad shock to the sense
of innocence of Standard Oil mag
mates to be caught at the game OF
ruining business rivals in Missouri by
means of the rebate system, says the
New York World.
Their confidence in their own virtue
has been so implicit, so unquestioned.
Demagogues might accuse them OF
being INSCRIPTIONS, but deep down In
their own hearts they knew their own
righteousness.
There is nothing new or mysterious
about their methods In missouri. The
manager and agents of the Republic
company were instructed to under
mine the National company's trade
To get the Nationals customers they
paid them half cent a gallon rebate
in cash. For outward advertising pur-
poses the Republic figured as an in
dependent" concern like the National
under cover It worked with and
through the Standard OIL.
witnesses testify that at times the
independent" Republic used the
Standard OILS horses, wagons anc
tanks.
The people of Missouri are a sensi
tive folk. They sometimes lose theii
temper. They have laws which theI
are erratic enough to think should b'
enforced, and officials SO perverse al
to try to enforce them. They seem

A FATHERS JUSTIFICATION.

Ex-Congressman f. H. Funston,
and father of Gen. Frederick Funston
was fined at lola, Kan, yesterday for
expressing sympathy with the dyna-
miting of the lola Joints"
Funston is a highly respectable man
of conservative opinions and excellent
standing in his state, but his fathers
instinct got the better of his judg-
ment in this case and he is brought
to the bar and fined on level with
any other disorderly person.
Looking behind the surface facts
IN this case. however, 1t is not difficult
to find his justification, and the judge
in sentencing him to pay fine, said
IN a few words a whole volume of
truth. The judge knew his provoca-
tion and said that in view Of the cir
cumstances it was the most disagree
able duty of his life to fine the aged
father in face of the facts.
Here is the story: Funston has
son younger than the general, who
was a bright, forceful young man, but
who has been ruined by the Joints
against the old mans constant plead
ings and protest. The Joints" follow
up a victim with more dogged fiend'
ishness than an open saloon and 1t II
more difficult to guard against theii
entIcements, because they are hidder
away from the public and are not eas'
of access.
The father has felt that his famil!
was disgraced. He has seen his son
whose promise was so bright pulle'
down and down until he is a common
sot. and when the time came that tn
Joints. which were the cause OF tn
boys ruination. went up In dynamic

TEACHERS SALARIES GROW.

Perhaps the most pleasing feature
of the annual report of Superintend-
ent Frank K. welles, is the increase
shown in the average salaries paid to
teachers.
The East Oregonian believes that
the efficiency of the public schools
primarily depends upon the pay
which the teacher receives. If the
teacher is underpaid and the profess
sion drags along at the rear of other
professions in the matter of income,
the best people will be driven out of
II and the public schools will suffer.
The increase in the salaries of
teachers is from $54.15 for male
teachers paid last year, to s57.77 paid
this year; for female teachers the In
crease is from SASS paid last year
to $46.3O paid this year.
True, the advance is small, but 1t Is
an advance and that Is something.
1t should be forced steadily upward
until the teacher receives as much ir
proportion to work as any other OF the
professions. The work Of the teacher
is not transient. 1t is for all time and
should be equal to its importance II
society.

REVOKE THE LICENSES.

There is a way by which the city
council can make the saloon business
in Pendleton respectable, and there is
only one way.
That is by revoking the licenses of
places where drunken men are robbed
of their money after being made
drunk by boosters for these dives.
This kind of an eample is needed
to make the dives know their places.
The council and the city marshal
have sufficient evidence that certain
dives are making a practice of robbing
drunken men. The facts are repeated
ly brought to the attention of the
marshal and upon his recommended
tion, two or three dives should be put
out of business for good. Their own
ers should not be allowed to go into
business in the city again, for they are
unfit for civilized community.
The council will be backed up in
this action by every legitimate and or
derby saloon in the city and by every
business man who is responsible, in
a measure, for the moral standards OF
the city.
Will the council have the courag'
to do it? Does that body dare to show
its iron hand in the management o
the dive?

TO VIOLATE PRIMARY LAW.

1t is rather surprising that Senator
Fulton, the only member of the Ore
gon delegation in congress who Is not
under Indictment for law violation
should counsel his party to ignore the
direct primary nominating law, IN the
selection of a candidate for the United
States senate.
It is to be expected that the high OF
ficials of the state and nation Will set
an example of law observance. for the
encouragement and guidance of the
masses. Absolute disregard for the
mandate of the law from one in SEN
ator Fulton's place, is startling when
considered in the light of its oral
effect upon the state.
The nominating law says that me
voters of any party must select All
candidates, but Fulton advises a Sc
lect convention in advance of the pri-
mary vote, to select a candidate tor
the senate. Will the voters stand by
the DEGREES of this Select" conven-
ton? VIII the masses of the peo-
ple of oregon give sanction to the po-
liticai machine in the face of law
disarming the machine? Hardly.
At least, the people expected diff
ferent standard from their only re-
naming representative in congress.

WILLIAM THE RESTLESS.

In addition to showing his constant
interest in music art. yachting, the
ology theaters, military tactics and
ser can claim the distinction of being
the busiest world politician. says the
New York World.
His unexpected visit to King oscar
of Sweden is only another evidence of
his irrepressible activity. The kaiser
shows himself sympathetic, appoints
King Oscar n grand admiral in the
German navy and plans series of
imposing naval demonstrations in
Swedish ports. A formal German
Swedish alliance has been hinted at
Then Norway's vacant throne is to be
filled. and the Hohenzollerns have a
weakness for these royal plums.
Last week he won the first game
with France in the tournament of di-
plomacy in Morocco. The stakes
seem small. but the kaiser is deter
mined to keep in practice.
williams activities in world politics
have been ceaseless. 1t was he who
inspired Russia to snatch Port Arthur
and Southern Manchuria from Japan
after its victory over China. kiao-
chau gave him a foothold In the Far
East and a voice in Asiatic politics.
The little matter of his warships in
Manila bay is best forgotten. BY pur-
chasing the Carolines after the war
with Spain he secured a new base for
his Pacific fleet. At the time OF the
Boxer troubles he made Germany as
sumo a more aggressive and Tndictive
attitude than any other power
His telegram to Kruger was plain
indIscretion in a ruler having posses
sions in Africa bordering British ter
ritory. African colonies have cost the
kaiser dear in men and money. but his
policy is always against being a little

The Venezuelan adventure at frs
was regarded as a test of the Monroe
doctrine. Recent correspondence pub

to the kaiser's having prompted the
United States to urge the "administra
tive entity" of China during the pres

Five years ago the kaiser declared
in a speech at Wilhelmshaven: Il d'

RHEUMATISM

The time to get rid of Rheumatism is

THE CHINESE PERIL.

IT, under the pressure or an alleged
boycott of American goods in China,
the president is brought 10 advocate
a modification of the Chinese exclu-
sion act he will make the greatest
mistake of his administration and will
inflict a blight upon the country
which it will be almost impossible to
again remove.
The trusts and big manufacturers
of the east are urging the modifica-
ton of the exclusion act, on the
grounds that it is an unjust law and is
detrimental to American interests.
The president is inclined to listen
to their pleading and it is possible
that the limit of the act will be ex-
tended to admit certain alleged bet
ter" classes into this country.
The Pacific coast knows by actual
touch with the Chinese, his utter un-
fitness for citizenship in this country
The protest against the extension OF
the exclusion act should be so strong
and emphatic that there would be no
misunderstanding of its meaning.
The boycott will amount to nothing
China will be forced to buy American
goods. She can get the same supplies
nowhere else. 1t is a bluff but Will
be expanded into a grave danger by
the Chinese sympathizers. But 1t is
not as dangerous to the United States
