To neglect cold the results are toe often very serious. Bronchitis, Pleu. risy, Pneumonia and Consumption are frequently the consequences. Upon the appearance of cold. sore throat or chest, use Simmons Cough Syrup. It soothes the irritation, loosens the phlegm and promptly cures you.

NO MORE POOL SELLING.

The people of Oregon who have
been taxed to support the state fair
and who have seen that excellent event
degraded by the most inexcusable race
track gambling, permitted by the state,
will be delighted to know that the
state fair board has abolished pool
selling at the fair.
Gradually the silent but penetrat-
ing sunlight of public morals is spread
ing to the last hiding place of the
gambling germ and soon it will be able
to find no place whereon to lay its
head. \ dispatch from Salem an
nounces the decision of the state ag-
ricultural board on the pool selling
evil, as follows:
The state board of agriculture at
its meeting yesterday afternoon voted
to eliminate all gambling devices from
the state fair grounds. There will be
no pool selling nor bookmaking at the
Oregon fair this year The radical
move Is one that has puzzled the
board for some time, but one which
they have weighed and considered
carefully
In past years the commission has
been severely criticised for permitting
gambling on the grounds and the res
olutions adopted by various oranges
in all sections of the state together
with the demoralizing effects of pool
selling among the young have neces-
STATED this step to be taken by the
board. To the fair it means a great
deal financially, for the eliminating of
pool selling will cut the revenues s1,1
500, which was paid for the privilege
by William B. Aver.
The sentiment against gambling at
the state fair was manifested at the
recent session of the legislature when
the bill introduced by Representative
w. K Newell of Washington county,
failed to pass by few votes only.
Many fairs throughout the union
have eliminated gambling and have
profited thereby. In Minnesota the
state fair has grown into a gigantic
enterprise, and by doing away with
gambling the attendance has made
wonderful strides. In Ohio, Iowa, In
diana, Illinois and other states pool
selling, bookmaking and attractions
with Objectionable features have been
removed

A BLUBBERING BOODLER.

With death from consumption star
ing Supervisor Sanderson of San Fran
cisco, in the face, he is converted from
a gay boodler into a blubbering cow
ard.
While he was in good health and
on the high tide of adventure and
successful boodling, he had no thought
of the consequences of his crime, he
had no respect for the name of his
family and betrayed his fellow citi-
zens just as willingly as any other of
the supervisors.
But now that he sees the image of
a lone white tombstone in a desolate
field as his immediate portion, he
begins to reflect on the dishonor which
he has brought upon his name and
like big calf he flinches under the
hot branding iron of public indigna-
ton.
Men should think of these things
when they are In good health and in
their strong, useful manhood. It is
no time to try to make amends for
wilful wrongdolng, after the crimes
are all committed, the money spent
and the friends betrayed.
1t is the part of coward to get up
howl about besmirched name and
ruined family escutcheon, after a
man has run to the end of his rope,
willingly, wilfully.
He should have thought of these
things when the first bribe money
was showed under his nose. It is too
late now for effective atonement. San
Francisco has been wrongcd beyond
recovery by these rascals and no death
bed repentance will restore her plum
dered honor nor bring back her
wasted public funds.

There are always a few knockers
in every town and Pendleton, of
course, has a very small proportion of
this class, which is always kicking
about the town going to the bad. Let
them go out to rent a good residence
or try to buy a good residence prop
erty and it is safe to say they will
find that rents are just as high and
prices are just as high or perhaps
higher in many localities than ever
before. The street paving has actu>
ally inspired more confidence in the
city than any movement ever made
and Pendleton is on a safer and more
substantial foundation today than
ever before in her history.

NO FREE GRAZING.

The stockmen OF Colorado are try
ing to have the grazing fee charged
for use of the range in forest reserves,
removed or abolished.
They will never succeed in this
undertaking and they should not. II
grass were free in the reserves, why
not give the timber free to the saw
mill companies?
The central idea Of the forest re-
thing of the public domain, both tim
Der and grass, for the use of future
gene. rs. 1t looks forward to the
time when the country will have ur-
gent need of these things, and the plan
1t has adopted for the preservation of
both timber and grass, is to husband
them now by not permitting them to
be wasted, impoverished or destroyed.
By linn ting the number of stock in
reserves, the grass will not be destroy
ed by over-grazing. BY selling off
only the ripe timber the forests will
be preserved and It is right that those
who use either public timber or pub
lie grass should pay a reasonable price
for them.
The rules governing the forestry
department are Just as legal and ef-
fective as those governing the GUS
toms department or the judiciary de-
partment and any public official who

$3.50, but $3.50 took good ones, and
the run carried a lot of fresh shorn
stuff, not fat, that had to sell down
as low as Sc and was not wanted at
that. These off-quality clipped lambs
are 30Q40c lower. Wool yearlings
of lamb weight made $7.25 and were
wanted, but clipped stuff was turned

A BOLD DECLARATION.

The Peoples Press, the new
weekly started in Portland, prints
as an excuse for its existence the fol-
lowing courageous creed:
Do you know of an untrammeled
newspaper in the northwest: Do you
know of a weekly or daily publica-
ton that has standing, is rightly ed
tied and that has no strings on 1t?
Don't you know as a matter of fact
that there are political deals, gratis
in municipal politics, queer happen
ings in labor affairs and corporate
doings that offend every honest man,
that are never spoken Of?
Admitting that this is the situation,
and nc man who is informed can
deny the general charge, is It not
time that the general public have
some one Forum where then can be
sure they can gain a hearing, where
the under dog can have his honest
howl and where the exact truth can
be told about the things that interest
every voter and taxpayer?

tative men of every class, we have

The Stove.

The following story Is being told Of
a certain celebrated Partisan doctor,
whose domestic relations are said to be
not altogether satisfactory. He wac
called in one day 10 prescribe for a
lady who thought she had influenza. But
the doctor, after observing her symptoms
looked about the room in order TO dis.
cover the cause.
Suddenly he perceived the stove, a
very beautiful work Of art, and ex.
claimed; my dear madam, that stove
IL the cause Of your trouble; it is filing
your room with poisonous gas, and ii
you continue TO use il, it will end by
killing you.9
But, doctor, IL cost me 100 francs"
"No matter, better lose your money
than your health"
But, as the lady still seemed unccn-
WINGED, the doctor added;
II win give you one-quarter the price
and see ii cannot get rid Of the thing. "
So the stove departed.
Later on the patient was changing
her apartments and went to look al
some Others that were being vacated. In
one of the rooms she inspected she
recognized her former stove.
"Who is living here2" she inquired.
"Mme. Co., the mother-in law Of
the famous Dr." was the reply
With a smile OF understanding the
lady left.--Tit Bits.

WATER POWER.
The Enormous Potentialities Of Our
Rivers and Streams.


The possibilities Of our small streams
make the dream of the future seem un-
real and fantastic. No man has dared
even to try to measure or compute the
total undeveloped water power Of the
world. There are thousands OF streams
capable Of producing from 100 to $4,000
'or more horsepower; few Others, like
Niagara, the Victoria falls in South At
RIGA, and innumerable falls of the Miss
issippi, the Colorado and the Missouri,
with powers in this direction which
seem unlimited. What is the utmost
strength OF Niagara. II every part Of
the mighty torrent OF water was har
messed, it would easily generate sufficient
electrical power to do all the work OF
the country. We could almost belt the
globe with horses, and still Niagara
would stand a good chance TO Offset
their pulling strength But Niagara is
no greater than Victoria Falls, In the
heart Of Africa--some say not 50 great
in its unmeasured possibilities.-St.
Nicholas.
