East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-02-24

Portland has had one or both of the
senators for so long that its citizens
have become imbued with the idea
they are entitled to the honor, even
though it is not specified in the consti-
tuition of the United States that the
senator must be from Portland. So,
in view of their desire for a Portland
man to be successor to Senator Gear
in, it is hard to foretell what Multno-
nah county voters will do in the COM
ing republican primaries. Apparent
ly there is chance that the situation
lin the METROPOLIS may became clearer
within few days, and when 1t does
a definite announcement will be made
by Judge Lowell.
In the opinion of Judge Lowell the
choice of the people for senator, as
expressed in the June election, will be
named for the office by the legisla-
ture. However, he interprets state
ment number l to mean thai legis-
lator shall support for senator the
man of his party who receives the
highest number of votes in the cleo
ton. Consequently, that a republican
member will not be bound to uphold
the peoples choice unless the chosen
one be of the republican faith. He
holds that our government is one of
parties. and that neither a republican
nor a democratic member of the leg
islature should be, required to vote
for one of the opposite party for sem

Contrary to a statement published
yesterday in the Portland Oregonian.
Judge S. A. Lowell is not an avowed
candidate for the United States sena-
torship. Judge Lowell arrived home
this morning from Portland, where he
had been for several days looking
over the political situation. When
seen this forenoon he declared he was
not candidate for the senatorship.
and that in the head lines at least.
the Oregonian story had stated his po-
sition improperly. According to the
judge he will not decide 1efinitely in
the matter for several days yet and
seemingly there is considerable doubt
about his entering the field.
Judge Lowell states that he went to
Portland for the purpose of deciding
whether or not to become a candidate
for the senatorship, and says he re-
ceived warm encouragement from
many prominent while there. There
are now but two Portland men in the
race-Jonathan Bourne and H. NJ.
Cake, and with conditions as are at
present Judge Lowell believes he could
be nominated. However. ne says

Habit-forming Medicines.

Whatever may be the fact as to many
OF the so-caled patent medicines con-
tanning injurious ingredients as broadly
published in some journals of more or
less influence, this publicity has certainly
been OF great benefit In arousing needed
attention to this subject, 1t han, in a
considerable measure, resulted in the
most intelligent people avoiding such
foods and medicines as may be fairly sus-
pected OF containing the injurious ingre-
dients complained Of Recognizing this
fact some time ago, DIR. Pierce, Of Buffalo,
N. Y, "took time by the forelock,n as 1t
were, and published broadcast all the
ingredients Of which his popular medi-
clnes are composed. Thus he has COM
all opposition that might otherwise be
urged against his medicines, because they
are now OF KNOWN COMPOSITION. Fur
thermore, from the formula printed on
every bottle wrapper, 1t will be seen that
these medicines contain no alcohol or
other habit-forming drugs. Neither do
they contain any narcotics or injurious
agents, their ingredients being purely
vegetable, extracted from the roots OF
depths OF our American forests and Of
well recognized curative virtues.
Instead OF alcohol, which even In small
portions long continued, as In obstinate
cases OF diseases, becomes highly objec-
tionable from It's tendency TO produce a
craving for stimulants, DIR. Pierce en-
ploys chemically pure, triple refined
glycerine, which Of itself is q valuable
remedy In many cases OF chronic diseases,
being superior demulcent, antiseptic,
santiferment and supporting nutritiye.
It enhances the curative action Of the
Golden Seal root, Stone root, Black
Cherrybark and Bloodroot, contained in

Duke of Wellington,s Vanity.

Among the portraits at the Royal
academy, London, there are some
which could tell stories; some with
little touches of idiosyncrasies of sub
jects no less than of painters. Is the
story of Lawrence's portrait of the
Duke of Wellington commonly known? ?
The duke had only one vanity-his
wrist was like steel. Now, when he
was given the sword of state to carry
it was his infinite delight that he was
able to carry it upright; all his prede
cessors had to slope it toward the
shoulder. He would go down to pos
terity, he resolved, glorified by the
power of his wrist.
In vain Sir Thomas Lawrence point
cd out that, as matter of art, it
would never do; that the sight of a
man perennially carrying sword from
the wrist would fatigue those who
looked at his picture. The duke in
sisted upon having his way. Lawrence
cid manage to smuggle in 8 cushion
upoE which the duke seemed to rest
his elbow, but close examination shows
that arm and cushion do not meet

BOILING SPRING DISCOVERED

Prior Lake-A boiling spring In the
bed of Prior lake, not far from the
Grainwood summer resort, has been
discovered. When described as boil
ing" reference is made to the turbulent
state of the surface water of the lake
where it bubbles up rather than to the
temperature.
The spring is about 500 feet from the
shore. Up to two years ago, until the
cycle of wet years recommended In
Minnesota, that part Of Prior lake
where it is located was not covered
with water, but now there is water
there to a depth Of about twelve feet.
The spring water can be seen issuing
from the bottom of the lake and ris-
ing upward to the surface as straight,
white shaft, seemingly foot in diam
eter. At the top the surface of the
lake bubbles up to a height Of foot

tions of Ponca chiefs Say.
Schurz heard of the runaways, and
through the war department tele-
graphed Gen. Crook, in Omaha, to ar
rest the Indians and return them to
Indian Territory.
But the chief of the Omahas, Iron
Eye, went to meet the Poncas and Of
feTed them a haven of refuge on the
Omaha reservation.
I'VE have all the land Standing Bear
and his people wish for; we have corn
and meat in plenty; come live with
u.s. said Iron Eye.
But the government, through Schurz,
said NO"
So Crook arrested the old chief and
brought him and his followers down
TO Omaha. And with them came the
wagon bearing the dead child.
Standing Bear told Crook his indi-
vidual story. The great Indian fighter
knew the general history of the In
dians and was already indignant at
their treatment, but the treatment ac-
corded Standing Bear was too much,
and even the stern warrior rebelled.
Campaign Mapped Out.
That night Crook came into Omaha
and had an all-night's conference with
Tibbles, then an editorial writer on a
newspaper. A campaign of Indians
rights was mapped out, and both men
started out the next day to carry out
their parts.
Crook was to delay returning the In
diahs to Indian Territory until writ
Of habeas corpus could be asked for
from the United States court on the
ground that the constitution, in the
fourteenth amendment, guaranteed to
all persons born in the United States
equal protection of the law
Tibbles looked out for the legal end
of the deal. He went to John l.. Web
ster, then struggling, unknown young
lawyer, laid his case before him, and
asked him to defend the rights of the
Indian.
There is no money in it, but there
is fame, honor and glory" said Tib-
bies.

Horses at the Fair.

Hamline-One of the divisions of the
Minnesota state fair which will profit
this year by the erection of the new
amphitheater will be that devoted to
horses. The amphitheater will give
exceptional opportunities for the dis
play of the horses while being judged;
there will be admirable facilities for
comparison, and whatever the weather
may be the owners of the animals will
be sure of a large and appreciative
audience.
Every detail of the department is
being worked out carefully by G. w.
Patterson of Worthington, who is SUI
perintendent. Under his advice the
premium list for horses was carefully
revised and is now the largest and
finest group of prize offers ever made
by any fair in the world. A total or
$5,317 is found in the list of premiums
divided among the standard strains
and classes of saddle, harness, trotting
and draft horses as well as ponies and

Judge Dundy's Famous Decision

Omaha.-The late Carl Schurz is best
remembered in Omaha as the cause of
the American Indians being admitted
to full citizenship in this country-not
through his taking the side of the red
men in the long struggle, but because
ne, as secretary of the interior, issued
an order which so aroused the west to
the wrongs of the Indian that cru
sade was started in Omaha which
reached to all portions of the United
States, lasted seven years, and ended
by supreme court decisions and legisla-
tive enactments making the Indian as
free as a white man if he choose to be
so, and to accept the conditions of
civilization.
Schurz had the order issued to Gen.
Crook, then stationed at Omaha and
commanding this department of the
army, and Immediately the cause of
the Indian was taken up by Thomas
H. Tibbles, late vice presidential can
didate on the populist ticket; Gen.
Crook, John l.. Webster, Judge Dundy,
ard a score of other men prominent in
the west.

of the red man in the entire country.
Pitiful Funeral Procession.
Back in 1879 a pitiful procession
wended its slow way northward from
Indian territory, bound for the prairies
of Nebraska There were 80 Indians
on foot and one old wagon, drawn by
two wornout horses. In the wagon
was the dead body of child-an In
dian boy. The leader of the little par
ty was the father of the dead child;
the famous POnca Indian chief, Stand
ing Bear, few years later to be the
best-known Indian in the entire world
and to speak in every city in the
country in behalf of his people.
Standing Bears party was en- route
to the Niobrara country, in northern
Nebraska, to bury the child in the an
cieut burying grounds of the tribe.
They had started on the long trip, al
though permission to leave the reser-
walton in Indian Territory, on which
they had been settled against their
will, had been refused.

In their dress uniforms (this was one
of the few times in his life that Crook
wore his full dress in public), and the
Indians themselves, in their gaudy col
ors. The courtroom was galaxy of
brilliancy.
ION one side stood the army officers,
the brilliantly dressed women, and the
white people; on the other was Stand
ing Bear, in his official robes as chief
OF the Poncas, and with him were his
leading men.
Far back in the audience, shrink
ing from observation, was an Indian
girl who afterward became famous as
lecturer in England and America.

name, In-sta-the-am-b Bright Eyes.
