No Need Of Suffering from Rheuma-
tiSm.

It is a mistake to allow anyone to
suffer from rheumatism, as the pain
can always be relieved, and In most
cases a cure effected by applying
Chamberlain's Liniment. The relief
from pain which 1t affords Is alone
worth many times its cost. It makes
sleep and rest possible. Even in cases
of long standing this liniment should
be used on account of the relief
which it affords. Do not be discour-
aged until you have given 1t a trial.

A FEW WORDS
WILBUR X. NEWELL GIVES HIS
IDEA ON GOOD ROADS.

Portland, Oregon, August a.
Hon. Wilbur X. Newell, president
of the Oregon State Board OF Horti-
culture. and equally we'll known in
Washington, has, at the request Of
the Oregon Development League,
condensed his ideason good roads M
to one hundred words. and they tell
the story:
Bad roads nullify advertising, re-
pei immigration, increase cost of liv-
ing, render the automobile useless.
and will deprive the farmer OF ru-
raj free delivery.
State aid and supervision of road
construction is essential.
In equity-becanse public bene-
At. state should pay Is per cent of
the cost, county so per cent ana the
adjacent property rs per cent.
For thoroughness-trained engi-
neers and strict supervision of all
work.
"For economy-levy taxes and pay
as we go, or on short time certificate
plan.
F! For education-regular and cor
respondence courses in road building
at Oregon Agricultural College and
University of Oregon.
! LET us build good roads all sum-
mer, instead of talking about them
all winter"
The Oregon Good Roads confer
ence will convene promptly at $3.50
a. M, Tuesday. August IL, in the
convention hall of the Portland Com
mercial Club, sixth floor. Another
meeting will be held at two O'Clock,
and perhaps an evening session. A
feature of the convention will be the
attendance of many road supervisors
and practical road officials.

The Newtown bee., 1908-01-31

Postmaster w. M. Reynolds of New. town desires to call attention to the practice of some patrons of rural de- livery of placing loose coins in their boxes each time they desire to dispatch letters instead of supplying themselves with postage in advance of their needs. This practice imposes undue hardship on rural carriers in removing loose coins from boxes and delays them on the service of their routes. The post master, therefore, urgently requests that patrons of rural delivery provide themselves and keep on hand supply of stamps consistent with and in ad- vance of their needs. It is also very desirable that rural patrons place in their mail boxes small detachable cups of wood or tin in which to place coins when necessary, in purchasing SUD- plies of stamps.

eomplish much; nor would an improved
 credit system be much more success
 ful. For, at bottom. the reason why proprletors lease their farms they move
 to the towns is that they prefer small
 Ter profits and city life to larger gain in the midst of solitude. Detailed studies show that the highest percent age of tenants is found on the most fertile land. While this indicates, in some measure, the natural operation of capital seeking investment, 1t is n more striking picture of the downward rush. The amazing prosperity of the American farmer has greatly aeceler- ated the drift toward tenancy. Judged by a reasonable standard, thousands of agriculturists are rich, and how rare is the rich man to-day who can resist the lure of the town! These men, after years of hard work, have saved enough to move into town house without be- ing obliged to sell the old homestead.
 The New York Tribune thinks that unless landlordism is made crime, the army of tenants must continue to grow. Unfortunate as this is in many respects, tenancy need not be as black an evil as it is sometimes painted. It is true, as Professor Price reitrea tes, that a tenants natural lack of interest in improving and maintaining a farm tends to deplete the fertility of the leased land. But the increasing agri- cultural wisdom of farmers is doubt less already correcting this evil h abit. If farm leases, which are now short, should be materially heightened the tenants interest in keeping his lease- hold at the highest state of efficiency wo uld be much greater.

A UNITED COUNTRY UNDER THE
 ONE FLAG.

Our conversation turned upon the
 treatment of prisoners of war pro and
 con. He took from an inside pocket
 a folded piece of wall paper, well time
 worn, with the remark, as he offered it
 to me to examine, Here is some
 thing would not part with for any
 thing. Perhaps you would like to read
 it." It was testimonial written on
 the inside of wall paper, and read as follows: "We the undersigned, United States prisoners of war, confined in prison at Salisbury, North Carolina, do hereby acknowledge to have re- ceived the best of medical treatment with untiring devotion while sick, at the hands of Sergeant w. B. Boyd. We shall ever feel deeply indebted to him for his many kind attentions and ten der care. January 25, 1S65."
 The names of forty eight Union SOL diers were attached to the testimonial, all from New York and New Jersey. An old saying, "All things come to those who wait," and our train started at last. and our colloquial friend soon reached his destination before we passed post station, called Eagle Mountain. which, before the railroad was cut through was known as Eagle l Rock. The natives did not like the i change and one time when President 1 Grover Cleveland was down on a trout ] ing trip, they told him so, and wanted | it put back to Eagle Rock. He had not been back to Washintgon but a | short time before word came that the name had been changed to Eagle Rock 1 and the natives were well pleased.

gers. One elderly man in particular
 attracted my attention, and, believing
 him to be of southern birth and old
 enough at the breaking out of the Civil
 war to have been in the army, a con. versation was started by which much
 information was gathered that will be remembred by me with much satisfac- tion.
 By birth, he was South Carolinian and at the breaking out of the rebel lion was eighteen years old, and at col lege in Tennessee. In the impetuosit y of youth he left college, returned to South Carolina, presented himself to Gov Pickens, and, with all the pompos- ity of boyhood, as he described it, told the Governor he had come to offer his services to the cause of the South. The Governor, instead of embracing him and showering eulogiums of praise tor his chivalry, coolly said: "Go over to Sullivan's Island and report your self for duty." He said it took the starch all out of him, but he reported, was mustered in, went through the war, and now at seventy years, hale and hearty, he tells of his experiences as soldier at the front, and says he is glad the war ended as it did, and that we are

from head tofoOt and are suffering
also from severe congestion of the

amount of cuticle, so severe in some
cases that it is feared may not heal.
Three less seriously injured in the ac-
cident are still aboard the Tennessee.
The funeral service was held on the
ship prior to the cemetery services.
The flags of all the vessels in the har-
Dor as well as those in the little city

contests, however, they may be settled,
as he would not be a beneficiary in
any case. Lowden is of the opinion
that it is not good party politics to
precipitate a row in the republican
ranks just prior to an election, and
for that reason he is not in sympathy
with the movement to bolt the COM
mittee and that the effect of a non
prosecution of the anti-Taft contests
would be a cause for the committee
to seat the Taft delegates in each in
stance. These delegations will go on
the temporary roll and each one of the
state delegations so seated would
name a member of the credentials
committee.
Sixteen more Taft delegates were
added to the temporary roll call of the
convention today as a result of the de
termination of the contests from Flo
rida and Georgia. The opposition to
Taft failed to score and the slate was
wiped clean in favor of the delegates
instructed for the secretary of war
one Florida district. and three Georgia
districts were passed over until Mon
day because the representatives of the

ed for Taft moved a postpOnement and

to take snap Judgment
Vigorous use of the gaveI by Chair
man New. and interference by the
friends of all, - prevented a personal
encounter between' the principals in
the Florida state contestsJ The pro-
ceedings were enlivened also by the
assertion of Representative Butler
Ames of Massachusetts, who is said to
have engineered the anti-Taft fight in
Florida, that he was responsible for
the use of alleged forged tickets of ad-
mission to the state convention hall
This charge was made in the form of
an admission by former Federal Dis
trict Attorney J. n. Stripping, one Of
the anti-Taft contestants who spoke
in opposition to the seating of the
Taft delegation 1t created a distinct
sensation.
