Nerve

Everything depends upon
your nerves. 1t is nerve force
that causes the brain to direct
the motion OF your body; it is
nerve force that causes your
heart to pulsate, and send the
blood through your veins: it
is nerve force that causes Your
stomach to digest food, your
kidneys to filter the blood, and
the liver 10 secrete bile.
In fact, nerve force is the
power that runs yorr body, so
if you feel worn-out, irritable,
nervous, cannot sleep, or eat
well, have pain or misery
anywhere, your nerves are
weak, and your system run
down. To restore this vitality
take DR.. Miles Nervine which
will strengthen and build I'D
the nerves. You cannot be
healthy without strong nerves.
For eighteen years Dr. Miles,
Nervine and Anti-Pain PITS have been
my close companions. Early in mar
rfed life. while raising children nv
nerves became all worn -out-could not
sleep had no appetite: indigestion,
very bad. and had such awful div
spells Then / began using DIR. Niles

Druggist Fined SoJ.

]. I. Tucker. the proprietor Of a
drug store at Toppenlsh, was tried
yesterday afternoon In Justice of the
Peace Taggards court on a charge
of selling whiskey without a certifi-
cate from a reputable physician stat
ing that the whiskey was for medici-
nal or scientific purposes and further
that defendant had not proper
license for the dispensing OF liquors
He was fined $25 and costs.
The Tucker case Is one which has
grown out OF the complaints against
the drug dealers of Toppenlsh. Some
Of the citizens of that place have re-
peatedly complained to the authori-
ties that life and property were un-
safe in their town because of the

alcohol which was carried on. Indl-
ans have been able to get liquor In ms

LAW ENFORCEMENT.

Politicians said that Harvey X.
Brown. reform candidate for COVER
nor could not carry single precinct
for law enforcement in his home
county.
He carried the entire county against
the strongest candidate for governor
whom eastern oregon republicans
could name. And in the state, where
politicians said he would be the
laughing stock, he polled 5000 votes,
a record that seems phenomenal.
The law enforcement sentiment is
no joke.
It'll" Taylor can swept Umatilla
county on a law enforcement plat

iff another term. His qualifications
are so high, his success with the Of

Is the logical man for the place and
his determination and promise to en-
force the laws in addition to his per-
sonal qualifications will give him
enormous strength.
And there is nothing revolutionary
about law enforcement. 1t will not
disorganize society The laws are on
the books They are there to be
obeyed. Nothing new is demanded. II
the laws are not good get them out OF
the code. Legislatures made up OF
citizens of Oregon have passed those
laws. Those same citizeiis live among
US today. They were plain, blunt

They were elected by their neighbors
and reflected their neighbors' thought
and spirit when they wrote the law:

OREGON LEAFS.

AS in other industrial lines, Oregon
leads the northwest in the average
weight of fleeces
--he good breeds OF sneep which
lave been introduced into Oregon, and
the excellent care taken of Oregon
sheep have borne fruits. The live
stock census just taken for the past
year shows that Oregon is the peer OF
all the livestock states in the produc-
ton of wool. She owns but 1000, 900
head of sheep, but she shears one
pound per head more than Idaho and
Wyoming. and three-quarters of a
pound more than Montana.
She shears az pounds per head
more than New Mexico. IL pounds
more than Utah and, Colorado, and
IN pounds more than California.
This is an evidence not only of the
adaptability of Oregon TO the sheep
industry, but also of the skill with
which the industry is conducted by
Oregon sheepmen. 1t pays to study
an industry, even though it may be
the prosaic industry of livestock
growing.
1t pays to excel in any line and this
advertisement which Oregon enjoys
from the heavy weight or her fleeces
has reached to the fartherest corner
of the world where sheep are grown
or where husbandry is one of the arts
of mankind.
The average weight OF the fleece
in the northwest states as given by
the recent census is as follows: Ore
gon pounds; Montana, rs; Wyom-
ing, Z; Idaho, Z; Utah, 6.5; Colorado
So; California. Gas; New Mexico, 5.5.

THE ONLY ARGUMENT.

When a republican editor exhausts
his little stock of logical argument
and is run. into corner, he always
shakes the bloody SHIRT" as his last
resource.
That is his one clinching argument
for his candidate or against the OPP
posing candidate.
In this enlightened and virile age
when each man stands upon his own
individuality, when progress is blind
ing the old moss-backs OF the partisan
type, it is disgusting to hear war is-
sues used as an argument in present
day political campaigns.
It is a pitiable mental state which
can find no other, no more live logic
to u1e in present day contests. Few
votes are held or won by such argu-
ments and it betrays a woeful lack OF

When travelling in the forests of
Guiana and Paraguay, 1t is not un-
common to meet with a bird whose
music greatly resembles that of an
Angelus bell when heard from n dis
tance. The Spaniards call this singu-
lar bird a bell-ringer. though 1t may
be still more appropriately designated
as the Angelus bird. for, like the An
gelus bell, 1t is heard three times a
day, morning. noon and night.
Its song, which defies all descrip-
tion, consists OF sounds like the
strokes of a bell, succeeding one an
other every two or three minutes, 80

CONIMENDS CHAMBERLAIN.

The work of Governor Chamber
lain through the state land office has
been very creditable and speaks well
for his business capacity. More than
$4,000 acres of vacant government
land have been selected to satisfy
losses in school sections, which were
due the state. All of this has been
sold netting the school fund about
100000.
Forged applications covering hun
dreds of thousands of acres of school
lands have been brought to light, the
guilty parties convicted and the GER
tificates cancelled.
Forged certificates and other docu-
ments covering thousands of acres OF
state lands were discovered in time to
prevent complications which would
have arisen had deeds been issued to
the holders.
No other Oregon governor has
looked after the school fund as close
ly as Governor Ckamberlain.-Port

HORSE VALUES INCREASING.

The horse is always ABOUT to be,
but never is, put out of business. On
the appearance of every new agency
of transportation the announcement
is solemnly made that the horse, after
passing through an era of decreasing
prices, will cease.
1t was so when railroads began to
gain headway, when bicycles came
into use, when the electric cars com
menced to buzz along the highways
when the auto developed into some
thing more than a curiosity, but YET
here the horse is still with us, and
more valuable than ever.
Statistics submitted to the house OF
representatives, in connection with the
agricultural appropriation bill. show
that there has been a notable increase
both in the number and value OF
( horses in the United States in the last
nine years.
The aggregate of horses January
1906, stood at 1S,71S,57S, against a.
1867 at the corresponding date OF
| 1897. Their total value increased
from s452,649,S96 in 1897 to $3.50.
$50, 9O6.
This startling rate of increase II
| value is no more marked than that o.
mules, according to the same govern
ment authorities. There were 2,216,
