Every paper in the state which has
commented on the discontinuance of
poolselling and gambling at the Oregon
state fair, has expressed satisfaction
and delight at the change. And yet
how many papers in the state dared
to condemn the practice while 1t was
sanctioned by the board? It is a shame
that the business office of so many
papers shape their editorial senti-
ment.

What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge SO
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-R oot, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
Is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need medicine
ysu should have the best. Sold by drug
gists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.
