 stead of . Meal,
 That heavy. bloated stuffed-up. lead like feeling. which you often experi- ence after eating meal, Is positive proof that something is wrong with your digestive organs. They are be- coming weak and Jagged out. There is lack of gastric and other diges- tive juices. The food is no longer properly digested and it forms q heavy load on your stomach, so that nearly every meal causes you misery and dis tress.
 If you are in this condition, it means that you have dyspepsia in some form ana may have had 1t for some time. though you didn't realize it.
 Now is the time to check it. for if you don't 1t will surely develop into worse forms of dyspepsia and other stolnach troubles. which may have se- rtoHs results.
 the hub of the body and an injury to 1t is an injury to all. A weak stom- aeh causes the whole body to suffer. The action of the heart, liver, and kidneys becomes sluggish. The bradn becomes inactive. The nerves become unstrung, The blood loses its vital ity.
 The only safe, sure, sclentlnc metnoo of restoring your stomach to its healthy, normal state. Is to use Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets, which will act asea substitute in digesting your food. thus giving your stomach a much nesded rest.
 stuart's wyspepsia Tablets have stood the tests for years. Thousands have used them and been cured. Phy- sicians all over the United States rec ommend them. They are not a secret remedy. They contain fruit and vege- table essences. pure concentrated tinc- ture of hydrastis, golden seal. lactose, and pure aseptic pepsin. These com bined ingredients will digest the coarsest kind of food and do the work just as we'll as any good. strong, healthy stomach will.

MULKEY FOR BRISTOL.

Senator Mulkey has begun his brie
term in the United States senate. anC
his first official act was to ask tha
the Bristol case be taken up and dis
posed of.
Mr. Mulkey was asked upon his ar
rival at Washington about his atti
tude and probable course in regard to
the Bristol case. He said that he was
a personal friend of Mr.. Bristol, and
hoped to see him confirmed. But, be-
fore taking any action, it had been his
intention to ask the judiciary commit
tee to show him the records in the
case, so that he might know exactly
what is held against the district at
torney. From his knowledge of the
facts, he was convinced that there was
nothing of sufficient Importance to
prevent cOnnrmatlOn.
When told of the compromise that
had been arranged between Mr.. Full
ton and the President, Mr.. Mulkey
said:
"If that compromise is satisfactory
to the Presient, l see no objection TO
it whatever. l should, of course, like
to see Mr.. Bristol confirmed, unless
there is something against him of
which l have no knowledge, but,
in view of the facts as / learn them
now, am very much inclined to be-
lieve that this compromise is the best
solution of the matter. 1 should very
much dislike to see Mr.. Bristol reject
ed by the Senate, for think his con-
duct does not warrant such harsh ac-
tion, and, furthermore, his rejection
by the Senate would injure his pro-
fessional standing for all future time.
shall look into the case at the earli-
est opportunity and shall consult with
Senator Fulton about it. l do not
want to have friction with Senator
Fulton over this or any other matter,
and believe there will be none. AS
said before, I believe the compromise
Is happy solution of this long-stand-
ing controversy"

all doing pretty web, or would be if
they could get cars enough; they then
would be exceedingly prosperous with
existing rates; why then antagonize
and hostilely hamper the railroads
when we need them, and more of them,
so much2
What Oregon wants is development,
and this it can have only by a liberal
treatment of the railroads, and all pos
sible encouragement for more railroad
building Unless they can manage
their lines without too much interfer-
ence and so that they can make a
fair profit and have some surplus for
new roads, the railroad presidents and
other capitalists are not likely to in
vest much more in railroads in Ore
gon. So it would be very injurious to
the state to have any radical legisla-
tion at this time. 1t will be better to
bear some of the ills we have than to
incur worse ills by foolish remedies.
The people will be disappointed if
there is NO legislation at ali on the
subject of railroads, and what can in !
reason and moderation and with as !
surance Of success be done to better
conditions should be done, but hasty /
and radical measures should be avoid !
ed, and members of the legislature
should be careful not to give too con-
senting an ear to some of the news
paper representations that are being
made.

BUILD GREAT BATTLESHIP.
Naval Bill Allows for Second Dread
naught and More Sailors.

Washington, Jan. 26.-An appropri-
alton of about $95, ,O00,0 is provided
for in the naval appropriation bill
agreed upon today by the house COM
mittee on naval affairs. The bill pro-
vides for an additional battleship of
the type agreed upon in the naval ap
preparation bill of last year. 1t also
makes provision for two torpedo boat
destroyers and appropriates 100000
for submarines. This $4,000, 900 is ad-
ditional to the 81 200, 900 for subma-
rines provided in the bill of last year,
which has not yet been expended. Pro-
vision is made for about 5000 addi-
tional sailors and 900 marines.
The new battleship provided for in
the bill is to be a sister ship of the
monster authorized by congress last
year, which, the bill required, should
be 'first-class battleship carrying as
heavy armor and as powerful armament
as any known vessel of its class, to
have the highest practicable speed and
greatest practicable radius of action. I"

BROKE UP THE CLUB.

President Roosevelt nearly broke up
the Gridiron Club in Washington, D.
c.. the other evening, and turned what
is always intended by that club to be
an evening of merriment and jokes
at prominent public mems expense in
to one of oppressive gloom. Being
joked about his imperialistic methods
and temperament, instead of respond
ing in harmony with the spirit of the
place and occasion, he delivered him
self of a vigorous and serious de-
fense of his actions, and an assault on
those who had criticised him, which
was as much out of place there as an
owl in a cage of moneys or revivalist
at a dance. But since the President
took this tone, Senator Foraker, who
was present, responded in kind, and
gave the president all he wanted in
reply to his attitude on the Browns
Vile affair. The discussion was en-
tirely out of place, and "a bore" to the
club, which had no idea that the pres
ident could not take little pleasantly
without raising tempest and starting
a row. But since he had to ring in
the Brownsville and California affairs
and discuss them in dead earnest and
denounce everybody who didn't agree
with him, after his fashion, Senator
Foraker could do no less than to de-
fend his own attitude, and show that
he was not cowed by the bullying chief
executive. The affair was of course
greatly regretted by the 'jolly good
fellows" who compose the club and
their guests. Their fun for the rest
of the evening was spoiled, part of the
supper went uneaten, and everybody
went away feeling sort o. ashamed of
the performance, even if it was the
president of the United Stats who was
the chief performer.

incident that led to further investiga-
tion of Mr.. Bristol's record soon after
his first appointment was thoroughly
inquired into by the president and at
torney general and found to be no
good reason for revoking his appoint
ment, which was urged by Mr.. F. j.
Heney, who knew Mr.. Bristol well.
Since then he has had a great deal of
important business for the government
to handle, and no fault has been found
with him in any quarter He is en-
tirely satisfactory to the department,
to the president, and to the people of
Oregon, and there is therefore no good
reason why he should not be con-
firmed. Senator Fulton has his own
reasons, but it seems unlikely that
they can be such as the people would
concur in, or as would add to the Sen
ator's political strength and prestige
in Oregon. 1t is not treating Mr.. Bris-
tol right to hold up his confirmation
thus, with prospect that he may be
turned out next winter, for no reason
except the Senator's personal and un-
explained opposition. Both his high
character as lawyer and his efficient
and valuable services as district at |
torney entitle him to confirmation |
this winter or to specific reasons why !
he is not confirmed.

AS WAS EXPECTED.

Of course the sleet storm accounted
for some of the delays and discomforts
suffered by citizens who desired to ride
on the street cars early this week, and
so are not chargeable to the monopoly
that seeks to control all the "juice" in
Oregon; but of course also the delays
and discomforts were twice or thrice
what they should have been and would
have been if the company had been
reasonably well prepared for any such
emergency. Having only a fraction of
the power needed at the best of times
and under the most favorable circum-
stances, although any quantity of
power is to be obtained, it cannot be
expected to be prepared to do much in
the way of service when a little storm
comes along. In an eastern city such
an incident would have disarranged
traffic for about three hours instead of
three days-or maybe three weeks.
Then the Portland monopoly of light
and power, not being willing to employ
enough men or pay them decent, liv-
ing wages, is of course never prepared
to right things up promptly il they 90
wrong, or to try to give the people
the best service possible in an emer-
gency. Even after it had announced
that certain lines were in operation
the same as usual, there were people
in many instances who stood on wet
corners in the rain along ten-minute
or 5-minute lines for 10, 20 or 80 min
utes waiting for cars.
And as for street lights-oh., VII
get them by next summer at least on
moonlight nights. Don't kick. The

Modify School Land Rules.

Washington, Jan. 26.-An effort Is
being made by the governor of Idaho
to secure the cooperation of Western
senators and representatives in having
the Interior department modify the
regulations under which school land
is granted public land states. The at
tention of Congressman Jones was
called to the matter by Governor Mead
and he has taken it up with the secre-
tary. Under present regulations, ac-
cording to Governor Gooding, it is ex-
tremely dicffiult to make any selection
that will meet approval.
