This paper published the other day

che Blue Mountain Forest reserve.
or course. that story az gotten NJ
by one Of the Portland syndicate OF
newspapers concerned in the admins
fration Of absolute justice.
II would be useless for small paper
like this 10 tell the people that about
twothiFds of that story was invented
90 blacken men in public life.
The names Of persons Of the other DO.
itieal faction from the one on trial were
carefully excluded from that report.
This Is done in justice and fairness to
the people, and out Of pure devotion TO
the TRUTH
Conspiracy eases to dcfraud the gov.
ernment that have politics mixed up
IN them are very elastic affairs, and
have been used TO pgoish men IN all
ages Of history.
When Cicero, "a politician and time.
server, indicted Cataliue aud his aaso.
eiaies for conspiracy to destroy the
republic, he had probably the strongest
conspiracy ease in history
lie succeeded In convicting the sen.
ntors mixed up in that crime, and had
tho law and the facts and criminal con.
feaaions on this side. HUT then the reaa
tion came, aud sent Cicero into exile,
and his enemies into the consulships Of
Rome.
He had no newspaper to brand the
conspiracy into the hearts aud minds of

GOOD PIANOS ARE
 GOING VERY CHEAP
At the Great Holiday Sale of the Seals Piano Co.,. Who offer at Nearly Half Price Pianos
 Delayed in Shipment
EASY
 TERMS OFFERED TO ALL
Open Nights Till O'Clock First Ave-

We are now selling many pianos for Christmas delivery. The reason of this early buying is plainly told by our price tags, for we are offering greater price inducements than have ever been offered before in this city at this time of the year.
 Don't you think you had better settle the piano question now?
 An eccentric nobleman once offered for limited time five-dollar gold pieces at an absurdly nominal amount. Some promptly accepted the proffered bo- nanza, but others hesitated, and after wards, when they went to get 1t, were unable to do so; the opportunity had passed. The chance to buy piano at an actual reduction of S100 to S150 is now here; but the time limit is near, so that you must needs hurry. Only eight more business days to Christ mas, when the sale ends.
 Pianos of Fame.
 The instruments placed on sale in- clude the famous Weber synonymous with tonal perfection, the choice of the Pope and the King of Spain; the celebrated Fischer and. Kimball pianos; the renowned Haines Bros. and Mar shall & Wendell leach with a fifty years reputation), as well as the Grown (the one of many tones), Brew ster, Weser Bros., Singer, Hin7e, etc.
 Our prices on new pianos are simply amazing and customers are surprised at the values, for the figures are such as you generally see affixed to second hand instruments.
 We offer new $250 pianos for $173, and $500 pianos at s19S, while for $227 you can get a fine upright that is cheap at $325-one that is good for a lifetime. You'll find new upright cabi- net grand pianos that retail regularly

A Wor1an's Gratitude

For more than year I had been a sufferer, completely broken down. I had not slept but two or three hours any night for weeks. l had such awful misery in my head, and oh, l was sA irritable. 1 could not depend Nupon my judge ment, and my memory was failing. I realized that I was losing my mind, and 1 thought the grave, or worse, the asy- lum, would be my doom. My doctor said my case was be- yond the reach of medicine. I went to a druggist and told him my condition. He recom- mended Dr. Miles Nervine; he was pretty sure it would help me, so I bought a bottle. That night I took a table spoonful, and fell asleep in a few minutes, the first rest I had in weeks, and oh, I will never forget that sweet sleep while I live. 1 have continued taking it, and sleep like baby, and gain rapidly"

NEW REGIME WILL
 CAUSE CHANGES
A COMMITTEE IS STUDYING THE
 CHANGE WHEREBY CHURCH
 AND STATE ARE SEPARATED IN FRANcE-MANY NEW FEATURES

Paris. December 14.-The abolition of the regime following the separation of church and state involves an extensive change in the existing conditions under which the state carries on thousands of churches, paying the salaries of bishops and priests and concluding the entirely administrative machinery of the religious system.
 A committee which has been appointed by the minister of public worship began today to study the change from the old to the new system. This is divided into three heads; first, classification of church prop erty. including art treasures valued at several billion francs; second, readjust- ment of the salaries of the clergy which will be gradually reduced until they are extinguished; third, the formation of civil corporations to carry on the churches.
 The law permits the churches to con- tinue without interruption until the civil corporations are formed. When these are formed the real and personal pfoperty of the churches reverts to the government The first issue over the law will arise in determining the composition of the civil corporations. In the meantime the gov ernment is taking an inventory of all the church property and has issued a clrcu- lar warning the public that the sale of any personal effects or treasures of the churches will be prosecuted and punished under the terms of the law.
