Three men and their ideas have re-
Gently held the limelight in New
York state. each representing some
thing called democracy, and neither
having an extreme amount in COM
mon with either of the others.
Mr.. Bryan mas been reaping the re-
ward of 10 years Of adherence to many
of those principles which it has now
become good politics for both parties
to play thruout the country.
He arouses enthusiasm because he
is looked upon by hundreds of thous-
ands as man who lives for his con-
vlctions and not for strategy, who has
been the victim of corporation frauds,
and who spoke 10 years ago much
that the more progressive republicans
accept today.
BY thousands he would be called n
less intelligent and less able Roose-
velt. By thousands he would be call
ed Roosevelt who was less a parti-
zan, less given to expedicncy, and
more able to prefer his own beliefs
to victory.-Coller'e Weekly.

oREGoN's IMPROVING MORALS.

In his brief address at the opening
OF the county fair yesterday, Senator
Fulton spoke of the educational and
moral development going on in Ore
gon.
His words had a deep significance,
altho at a glance one would not catch
the inner meaning. There is a great
moral development going on in ore
gon. The puoic conscience is awak-
ening. The Rooseveltian era of pros
ecution and cleansing has given the
state a higher outlook, a clearer vision
of morals.
The growing prohibition sentiment,
the unpopularity of gambling and
gamblers, the demand for public pur-
ity and honesty, all point to the sub
tie development of the finer moral
sense Of the people.
The thieves and rascals will soon
stand alone in a class by themselves.
Heretofore they have stood among the
masses, so closely intermingled that it
was difficult to distinguish them. But
they are heing separated out-ostra-
cized, placed where they belong, in
the contempt of the public.

think permanently, as it was about five
years ago.
"The psoriasis first made its appear
ance in red spots, generally forming a
circle, leaving in the center aspot about
the size of silver dollar of sound flesh.
In short time the affected circle
would form heavy dry scale of a white
silvery appearance and would gradually
drop off. To remove the entire scales
by bathing or using oil to soften them
the flesh would be perfectly raw, and a
light discharge of bloody substance
would ooze out. That scaly crust would
form again in twenty-four hours. 1t

though it was in spots all over my
body, also on my scalp. If ! let the
scales remain too long without remov-
ing by bath or otherwise, the skin
would crack and bleed. / suffered

getting warm in bed, or blood warm

The East Oregonian hopes the next
legislature Of Oregon passes the free
school book law. There may be a
few more microbes in public text
books, becauze of so many children
uzing them, but the people could
stand a few more microbes if they
We're rid of the school book trust.
They would have more money left
with which to fight microbes and
practise better sanitation, if the cost
of school books were reduced from SO
per pupil per year to about So cents
per head per year. This is what free
school books will do.

FUNSTON A "DESERTER."

General Fred Funston, who is going
to Cuba to quell the revolution, join
ed the insurgents in Cuba Just before
the Spanish-American war, but after
serving them 4 short time he deserted.
An exchange says of the incident:
General Lee, of Virginia, who was
consul general at Havana, related that
General Funston came one day secret
ly to the consulate from the Cuban
camp. He booked so shabby and act
ed so queerly that General Lee, who
had been warned against assassins,
was about to shoot him. But Funston
made his purpose clear at last 1t
was that he wanted to get safely out
Of the city. General Lee promptly
had him put on board the American
mail steamer. The Spaniards might
have shot Funston IL they had caught
him. He may now go back to Havana
with full honors.

Man read in flower and rolling moon

THE RoRBER AND HIS RAKE-oFF

Becauze the stockholders of the
Wells-Fargo Express company are
scrapping among themselves, the pub
lie has Just learned the pleasing fact
that the corporations net earnings
last year amounted to 80 per cent on
its much-watered capital stock.
No wonder this combine can afford
to keep an army of lobbyists at WASH
ington to defeat any measure that
makes for public convenience in the
shape of parcels post. When Henni-
ker Heaton, the postmaster general
of England, asked the postmaster
general of the United States why this
country did not enjoy a parcels post,
he was met with this answer:
There are three good and suffic-
lent reasons why the United States
mails have no such service: the first
reason is the Wells-Fargo Express
company; the second reason is the
Adams Express company, and the
third reason is the Southern Express
company"
It is a-notorious fact that the pat
rons of these express companies art
robbed twice over: first in the initial
charges, which are invariably of them
selves exorbitant; secondly, by the
rake-off or additional charge affixed
under "orders" by the employees. No
tariff sheet, for instance. is printed
for the use of the general public.
You are obliged to take the word Of
the companies for the charge both
going and coming, and they take "all
that's coming" both ways.
