FULTON's REPUBLICANIsM.

The Oregonian says that it will be
impossible for a successful campaign
to he carried on for Taft and the re-
publican ticket in Oregon under the
leadership Of W. NJ. Cake as chairman
Of the republican state committee
for the reason that the Fulton fol-
lowers will not stand for it, (Cake's
leadership
If this is the quality Of Fulton's re,
publicanlsm it is time honest and
sincere members Of the party were
finding it out.
If Fulton and his followers are sim
cere in their desire for the success Of
republican principles they can work
with anybody as leader. If they wish
the party to succeed they will not
stop to ask who is chairman before
setting into the harness.
From the way Fulton is acting the
members Of the party in Oregon
would be justified in believing tina,
he is a bigoted, self-seeking politician,
with no higher ambition for the party
than his own personal triumph.
Oregon is being made a democratic
state by Fulton.

CHICAGO-NEW YORK RACE.

Herbert Gabriel and Charles Mot
zer cowboys from the Powder river
district in Wyoming, will attempt to
ride from Chicago to New York in
ten days, covering at least 100 miles
in each day, to settle a dispute be-
tween Jim OLeary, the gambling
king, and Harry Gill, a south side
sport, says a Chicago item.
Gill was of the opinion that no
horse could travel 100 miles a day
for ten consecutive days. O'Leary
thought differently, and a wager was
the result. O'Leary has announced
that If he wins he will present $1,000
and the horses they ride to the cow
boys. Gabriel is said to have taken a
1500-mile ride over the Rocky noun
tains TO demonstrate to purchasing
agents of the British army the pow
ers of the American horse.

WOOL AND WoOLBUYERs.

A few days ago the East Oregoniap
published a news item from Montana
showing that the same quality of wool
had sold in that state at from four to
seven cents higher than in the early
sales in Oregon and in the article In
question drew the conclusion that Or
egon growers had been kept out Of
the possession Of at least $6S0,O0
which rightfully belonged to them, on
their l7,OOOOOO-pound clip.
Subsequent sales in Montana have
proved that the East Oregonlan was
absolutely right in its conclusion and
yet this paper has no malice for the
woolbuyers who represent immense
commercial interests and who play the
commercial game as 1t is played by
every competitive industry in the
world
The Tribune on Sunday mOrning
published what It said was an inter-
view. with the name Of the spokesman
concealed. but the article in, question
denied the facts presented by the East
oregonian and the Tribune in its
Introductory to the article referred TO
the story as published by this paper.

THE MARvELS OF TRAVEL.

When the magician sat ION his
magic mat and by a wish was imme-
diately transported to any distant
place desired, he little dreamed that
his vision was a forerunner of modern
electric cars.
Go and sit in a union depot any
where today and read the names of
the railroad lines which you ride up
on at almost any place desired, and
you will see the fulflllment of the ma
gician's vision.
Go to Portland, Seattle, or any
other modern city and stand on a
street corner and read the names on
the street cars; "Woodlawn, Sunny
side, Vancouver, The oaks, Council
Crest, City Park, oregon City, Wood
burn. Salem, Estacada," and you see
the verified vision of the magician.
You can step into any of these cars
and be transported to any place de-
sired, but this feat far surpasses that
magic transportation of the fairy
story, because it is real.
So the dreams of the old story writ
ers were really forerunners Of many
modern conveniences and comforts.
Those old geniuses caught a gleam of
today through the intellectual mists of
their age.

TRAINING FOR AUToIsTs.

When you see a man on the rignt
hand side Of a locomotive handling
the throttle and managing the mon
ster machine, you may be assured
that that man has passed through a
long course Of practical training which
fits him for that position and for the
responsibility.
The railroad companies do not pro-
mote men TO these positions until they
are assured by thorough examinations
that qualifications are actually pos
sessed by engineers.
A modern locomotive costs from
$4,000 to $4,000 and is run on a track
over a prescribed route each trip, and
the public has warning of the dangers
by the presence of these tracks.
How vastly different the practice
of the country with regard to the au-
tomobile. With half a days train
ing" any man may take out an auto
mobile costing from $1,000 to $4,000,
and run it up and down the public
roads and streets where the public
congregates, passes and travels back
and forth.
There is no actual tralnin7, no ex>
animation, no requirements for an
autoist. And yet he exposes the pub
lie to dangers a thousand fold greater
than the locomotive, because he roams
at will over every road and street
with few restrictions as to speed and
no restrictions as to his routes.
Would it not be good sense for the
states to require a course Of training,
a little practical experience, little
knowledge and a little judgment from
autoists? Every day you read of some
fellow becoming "rattled" as is said
and through absolute lack Of knowl,
edge and experience, he dashes an
automobile over a bank. killing from
one to half a dozen innocent people
ir an instant.
Would it not be good sense for the
states 10 initiate the railroad compa-
MES and make a man show that he
appreciates his responsibility before
ne is allowed to dash into the public
roads and streets with a machine ca
pable of running down and numbering
people by the score?

this long time popularity and that Is to
be found In its superior merits. When
once given fair trial for weak stomach,
or for liver and blood affections, its supe-

hence it has survived and grown in pop

LESS AND LESS MEDICINE.

Orlsen SWEET Marden, the brilliant
writer Of Success Magazine, says Of
the growing tendency among the more
thoughtful physicians to use more
suggestion, more mental force and
less and less medicine in their prac-
tice:
Many of our best physicians who
only a few years ago ridiculed men
tai healing, are beginning to adopt the
prlnciple-so far as they know how
in their practice; especially the power
Of suggestion.
They are finding that their patients
are often more, affected by mental
medicine, by their "calls," their en-
couragement and good cheer, than by
their pills. They are finding, too.
that the mental attitude Of the pa
tient has everything to do with the
effect OF the disease, that 1t often
proves the turning point in a critical
crisis. The result Of all this mental
Influence is a very marked falling off
in the use Of drugs.
Many of our leading physicians give
but very little medicine, because they
have very little faith in 1t. 1t is now
well known that scores Of eminent
physicians employ metaphysical heal
ing in their own families and often for
themselves. Even the regular medi-
cal schools are taking up the subject

OF mental medicine in their lecture
courses
Hampered as this great movement
l. by the errors and extravagances OF
over-zealous followers, and also by
the fraud of charlatans, who take adj
vantage of The opportunities it offers
to impose on the credulous and igno-
rant, there is no doubt that the basic
principle of this metaphysical move-
ment has opened up many possibill,
ties of mind building character
building. and body building, which
are destined to bring untild blessings
to the world.

For that reason the East Oregonian
took occasion to defend its first story,
to ofer more evidence of the correct
ness Of its conclusions and TO induce
the Tribune by a perhaps too cruel
taunt, to divulge the name Of its in
tervlewed sheepman.
Because the East Oregonan de-
Tended It's position successfully and
put the Tribune in a position where
1t was forced to show down, its aged
and fastly failing editor flies into one

The opening OF the war college at
