Founder of Tacoma College Dies al
the Age OF Of.

/
A dispatch from Tacoma says Of
the death of Rev George Whitworth
founder OF the Whitworth College al
that place, in which Miss Hazel Ham.
blen Of Pendleton, is student:
Rev, DR.. George F. Whitworth, the
venerable pioneer who came to Pu-
get sound in 1853, and who during his
long career filled many public posi-
tions and was closely identified with
the political, religious and educational
life Of the state, died yesterday at the
age Of 81.
He was born in England, came to
this country when a boy. He gradu-
ated from Hanover college in 1888,

CONDEMNS ALBERTA.
Crook County Man Tells OF Snow on
Wheat Crop.

Charles N. Banta, who went to
Ferry Point, Alberta, Canada, from
the Culver neighborhood several
ears ago, confirms the discourag-
nag stories that have come from that
section this season, says the Madras
Pioneer.
In a letter received from him he
iiays, II never saw as fine crops In
lny country as we had this year, but
J, don't believe there will be one
loushel threshed In this part OF AL

first of August, and there have not
been more than two clear days at a
time from then until now.
"The grain stood It all right until
this morning about half past eight
when It began 10 snow, and in two
and a half hours the snow was three
inches deep, and the grain, which is
from four and a half to six feet high,
is lying flat on the ground, with all
the snow on top of ii. have so
acres in crop and would have had go
bushels TO the acre all right II we
could have saved it."
Mr.. Banta states that they har-
vested a good crop of hay, that hav-'
ing been cut and stacked before the
bad weather began. Others, how
ever, lost even their hay crop on ac-
count of the long continued rains.

STOP THE STRENUOUS LIFE.
Weakens the Tissues and Lessons Or
ganic Vitality.

Weakens the Tissues and Lessons Or
ganic Vitality.
The stress and strain of the stren-
uous life in both city and country
tends towards stomach troubles.
The frantic rush for pleasure, mon
ey and excitement is bringing serious
results. Elaborate food, late sup
pers, over-eating and too much
drinking are some of the causes of
stomach weakness for which the in
dividual is responsible.
Five people suffer today where one
did 10 years ago with sick headache,
dizziness, flatulence, distress after
eating, specks before the eyes, bloat-
ing, nervousness, sleeplessness and
the many other symptoms of indiges-
ton.
All who are suffering with stom-
ach troubles, and that means at least
two out of three in Pendleton and
other towns, should use Mi-i-na stom-
ach tablets. Nothing else is as safe,
yet effective; nothing else can be so
thoroughly relied upon to relieve all
troubles from indigestion as Mi-o-na.
1t Is unlike any remedy heretofore
known, and is actually one of the
most valuable discoveries in modern
medical science.
1t Is not a mere digestive taken af-
ter the food is eaten, but true tonic,
stimulant and strengthener for the
muscular walls Of the stomach, in
creasing the flow Of digestive fluids
and putting the stomach into such
condition that it does the work Ma
ture expects of it. It is an absolute
and lasting cure for it banjshes all
weakness and debility from the stom-
ach and bowels.
So reliable is Mi-o-na in its cura-
tive action that Tallman & Co., with
every so cent box they sell give a
guarantee to refund the money un-
less the remedy does all that is claim
ed for 1t.

PLAN TO DEFEAT
BRYAN s DREAM
PARKER MEN ARE BE-
HIND ALL SCHEMES.
"FavOrlte Son" Fake Is Being FOlst-
ell Upon DemOcrats-EFforts Made
TO Deract Attention From the Gen.
tral Democratic Figure, william J.
Bryan-Bryan Is Hopeful.

John Il. Lathrop, formerly of the
East Oregonian, but now Washington
correspondent for a number of north
west papers, says of an organized eff
fort to defeat w. j. Bryan for the
democratic nomination for the presi-
deney:
Quite as well marked a conspiracy
has been formed to defeat w. ]. Bry-
an for the democratic nomination as
that which was denounced from the
White House last spring, in which a
$5,O00,O00 fund had been subscribed
to defeat the policies of President
Roosevelt. This conspiracy compre-
hends intense activity in many states
from New York To the southernmost
commonwealth, and from the Allan
tic to the Pacific.
Favorite sons are being coached in
every state where may be found a
man whose mention will not excite
ridicule, and II rs well known here
that II is the definite purpose OF the
conspirators" to carry to the national
democratic convention just as many
state delegations as possible pledged
to favorite sons. These, If possible,
will be united on some anti-Bryan
candidate and the overthrow of the
Nebraskan thus accomplished.
This Is not to assert that every fav-
orite son movement is due to the
originating influence Of those who
have formed the so-called conspiracy.
Some of them are In good faith. But
1t is to aver that the favorite-son 10y
atty of the people is to be played on
by those who have determined that
Mr.. Bryan shall not become the next
nominee Of the democratic party.
The chief members of the cabal are
those who backed Alton B. Parker in
1904. So far as the details of the plan
are concerned, there is precisely a
parallel between this conspiracy and
that which was denounced from the
White House in the republican party.
And the motives are the same in each
instance.
So far, Mr.. Bryan maintains his lead
for the democratic naming. Most in
formed politicians have conceded for
months that Bryan commanded the
situation in the democracy quite as
completely as Mr.. Roosevelt did in
the dominant party. His naming has
been put down as one of the certain
ties, unless he himself said to the peo-
pie that he did not want the nomina-
tion. Probably Henry Watterson, Of
ficial orator Of the democracy next to
Mr.. Bryan, voiced common belief
when he declared to that effect

EARLY HISTORY OF IDAHO, THE GEM STATE

Early history of Idaho, the gem state
The Lewiston Tribune prints the
following historical sketch Of the
state Of Idaho, one of the newest and
most progressive states OF the union:
The territory of Idaho was created
by an act OF congress, approved
March, 1868, the population then
numbering about 10000 scattered
over foun counties and few mining
towns
Just previous TO the organization
of the territory rich mines had been
discovered in the Boise country, Lew
iston and Boise soon becoming strong
rivals commercially and otherwise.
On September, 1863, William II.
Wallace, appointed governor OF Ida
no by President Lincoln, issued his
proclamation organizing the territory
with the capital at Lewiston. The
first legislature met December 10 OF
the came year.
The legislature Of 1854 passed an
act removing the capital to Boise.
The county commissioners OF Nez
Perce county refused flatly to ac-
knowledge the legality of the act an
injunction brought the matter into
court, where II was decided In favor
Of Lewiston.
There seemed no way out of the
trouble now, but to appeal to the SUI
preme court. which, the law said,
should meet in the capital in August
of each year, but the judges did not
hold court in either place said to be
the capital In August. Finally U. S.
Marshal Alvord received orders from
Washington to take the archives of
the state to Boise, which was done.
The Pony Express.
When the early missionaries came
to the northwest 1t took from 12 to
10 months to get n reply to a letter
sent to New York. To remedy this
condition a pony express was estab-
lished In 1860 to carry the mail from
ST. Joe, Mo-, to Sacramento. This
distance was divided into two sections
of z or 100 miles each, with a car
rier for each section.
The rider was dressed I'm slouch
hat, high top boots, buckskin shirt
and trousers to match, and was arm
ed with revolver and knife. Each
had a relay of California cayuses. nd
on these mail was carried through the
entire distance Ia less than 10 days.
From this beginning the pony ex-
press became as common as the
prospector and the pioneer, and
wherever they went he soon followed
The representative in the process
sion today of this service is our es-
tened townsman. Warren p. Hunt.
who in 1867, carried the mail from
Lewiston to Warren, a distance of $50
miles, making one trip a week IN
summer and two a month in winter
continuing toe service until 1872.
At one time Mr.. Hunt came TO the
river and found the ferryboat washed
away, but he felt the express must be
taken on so strapping his mail pouch |
to his hack he slowly worked his way
across the ferry cable, reaching his
destination on time

men from hostile Indians, desperate

The Edwards Ancestry.

William Edwards was the first ancestor
of the family in America. He appeared at
Hartford four years after its settlement,
married the widow Of William Spencer, and
had one child. Richard, born in 1647. Rich
ard Edwards spent his life in Hartford, was
twice married. the father Of twelve chill
dren, and an influential citizen Of no mean
city. His first child, Timothy, born In 1859
graduated from Harvard in 1851, married
Esther Stoddard, daughter of the good old
pastor at Northampton, studied and settled
at East Windsor. a small village with a
large history, six miles north OF Hartford,
where he preached in the First Congrega-
tional Church for sixty-three years
Timothy Edwards had the same charac-
teristics that made his famous son so prom
inent. He was a man Of inflexible will and
uncompromising disposition. From an in
tel1ectual standpoint. father and son were
undoubtedly the greatest thinkers Of their
time. but both were possessed Of what one
might call intellectual and ecclesiastical
vanity which ought to have been forbidden
by the Ten Commandments.

The inventor has come to her relief in the
presentation of a tool by which, it is
claimed, she can herself give her hair a
marcel which will put the professional
dresser to blush. At first glance this device
looks like something which might be found
in the doctors kit, but Its mission is en-
tirely harmless and it can do no more
damage than possibly burn lock of hair
if handled too carelessy. The teeth shown
are sliding in groove and after the thing
has been heated the hair is wound around
one of the arms of the tongs, and when
the hair has been drawn tight by pulling
the teeth along the slot, the other jaw of
the tong Is closed down and its heat gives
the hair the desired curl.
