Over Thirty-Five Years.


In 1872 there was great deal of
diarrhoea, dysentery and cholera in
fantum. It was at this time that
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy was first brought
into use. It proved more successful
than any other remedy or treatment,
and has for thirty-fve.. years main
tanned that record. From small
beginning it's sale and use has ex-
tended to every part of the United
States and to many foreign countries.
Nine druggists out of ten will recon-
mend it when their opinion is asked,
although they have other medicines
that pay them greater profit. It
can always be depended upon, even
in the most severe and dangerous
cases. For sale by Princeton Drug Co.

The ttNew York to Paris'' Dream.

The tsNew York to Paris'' Dream.
Writing in the London Mail, Mr..
Harry De Windt, who has journeyed
over the course laid out for the auto
trip, sums up the scheme as too fan.
tastic to admit Of serious discussion.
The writer's object in Drawing the ter
rors of the north was to locate the best
route for railway. OF course be
looked for the stretches of territory
Offering the minimum Of difficulties fol
travel. The 5000 miles on the other
side lying nearest to the Bering strai.
he describes as a scene of "ghastly
desolat1on" and long spans of the
toughest sea ice. Only about half OF
the total distance between New York
and Paris, he declares, offers fairly
good roads, but Alaska and arctic ST.
IBERIA are another matter"
In Alaska Mr.. De Windt says there
are 1900 miles of "precipitous noun
tains and dense forests, intersected
by numerous rivers and practically un
explored" The water between the
continents is seldom frozen over, and
II it should happen to be bridged with
Ice when the cars got there they would
confront towering hummocks and
deep crevices through which a mar
can scarcely thread his way" And as
matter Of fact this writer saws that
for one stretch Of over 1000 miles nj
gasoline or other motor fluid can be
had and that in places the temperature
Is so low that gasoline would be use
less. In places fuel Of all kinds is sc
scarce that explorers and natives live
on raw food. But man likes to dc
what man has never done before, and
although seasoned arctic travellers may
poohpooh the New York to Paris auto
dream, 1t will doubtless require half 6
score Of failures and half q dozer
catastrophes in this field before the
daring will give it up.

outsticking quilts anything in opposi-
ton which he considers fallacious or
fatuous or fraudulent, but he never
gets corrugated with anger. He has no
cats paws Of malice. Neither has he
the velvet touch of pussy in the cor
ner nor the truculent pur Of tabby at

never gets excited save in the exhorta-
tive manner Of the evangelist who
breaches what he believes, and preach
es it with the emphasis Of JUNCTION.
A Progressive Evangelist.
There we have it. Mr.. Bryan is an
evangelist. He goes up and down the
country preaching what he believes. It
SO happens that his preaching is politi-
cal rather than evangelical, but it is a
religion with Mr.. Bryan all the same.
he believes fervently what he preach
es. He may be mistaken today on one
point Of doctrine and may believe and
preach otherwise tomorrow, but what
ever he does believe or believes that
he believes he breaches with fervor
and spirit. You might call him a pro-
gresstve evangelist. When the higher
criticism smites one Of his doctrines
he gets hold Of another. That means
progress. Religion and politics have
progressed through the ages by the
shifting to smithereens Of dogmas that
have outlfved their usefulness. The
citadel Of modern science Is built upon
junk heap Of defunct theories. The
junk is useful for a foundation for
climbing purposes.
But we must not assume that Mr..
Bryan is a turncoat. In the main he
sticks to his original tenets with the
tenac1ty Of leech. He might have
been elected president in 1900 but for
his refusal to run on the Kansas City
platform unless it contained a reitera-
ton of the Chicago currency plank.
The party was determined to;have him
for its candidate, SO a reiteratton was
made, together with an attempt to
hide its light under the bushel Of I'm
peria1ism as the paramount issue. Mr..
Bryan, of course, does not advocate
now the freesilver doctrine. The high

Compared With Henry Clay.

Mr.. Bryan has been likened to Henry
Clay, the great commoner" Of a hun
dred years ago and Of sixty years ago.
The comparison holds together only in
spots. Clay in his time was the mouth
piece Of the majority, the common peo-
pie, and there the comparison holds.
C1ay was perpetual candidate" for
the presidency and never landed. Ger
tain organs Of the opposition have con-
1erred that title upon Mr.. Bryan, who
as yet has failed to land. Clay was de-
feated three times for the presidency.
Bryan has been defeated twice, and he
wants to try it again.
But Henry Clay spent nearly all his
manhood life in public Office of high
station. He went from the Kentucky
state legislature to the United States
senate before he was old enough under
the constitution to take his seat. He
went from the senate to the house, Of
representatives and Immediately was
erected speaker. He resigned the speak
ership to go to Client and help nego-
uate treaty Of peace with England in
1914. He returned to the house and
again was chosen speaker. He was
John Quincy Adams; secretary of state.
ne spent most of his remaining years
IN the United States senate, where; he

RICH WOMAN IN NEW YORK
Dashed to Death Against Adjoining
MISUNDERSTANDING With Nervous
Disease She Carefully Plans Suicide
Wife OF Boston Millionaire and
Member of One of Massachusetts
Most Aristocratic Families.

New York, Jan. 17.-One OF the
most sensational suicides that ever
occurred in this city was committed
last night when Mrs. Herbert Sears,
wife of the Boston millionaire, and
member of one of the most aristo-
cratic families of Massachusetts,
leaped from her room on the thir-
teenth floor of the fashionable apart
ment house, st. Regis. and was DASH
ed to death on the roof OF the adjoin-
ing building 100 feet below.
The suicide was carefully planned.
She arose from her bed, threw light
wrapper over her night gown and
made the fatal plunge.
Mrs. Sears had come to New York
to undergo treatment for a nervous
disease, Before committing the act
she penned a letter to her husband,
which is being held for him.

NO CRIME IN OREGON TO PASS OLD
BANK BILLS.

While Pendleton, La Grande, Ba-
ker City, The Dalles, Huntington and
other eastern Oregon cities have been
imposed upon by the passage of a
flood of old bank bills from defunct
southern banks, it is admitted that
there is no law by which this crime
can be punished in Oregon.
A special effort has been made by
District Attorney Phelps of Umatilla
and Morrow counties and District At
torney F. S. Ivanhoe of the Union
Wallowa county district, to convict
the venders of these old bills which
have found their way into circulation
in large numbers In the past few
months in eastern oregon, but so far
no conviction has been secured and
1t is the concensus of opinion among
lawyers that there is no law by which
convictions can be secured as the
bills are not counterfeit
The last attempt to convict for this
crime comes from Baker City. where
the man who passed the bills was dis
charged from custody after hearing
in the circuit court, A Baker City

dispatch says of the matter:
John Riley was discharged from
custody yesterday afternoon by order
of Judge Smith after being indicted
by the grand jury for obtaining mon
ey under false pretenses by passing
worthless bank note of the Mer-
chants and Planters Bank of Savan-
ah, Ga. Riley was arrested last De-
cember charged with passing these
worthless notes, and when his case
came up in court, Judge C. II. McCul-
loch. who had been appointed by the
court to defend him. filed demurrer
to the indictment in which he alleged
that the indictment did not state
grounds sufficient for a cause of ac-
ton.
Judge Smith looked into the mat
ter carefully and found that there
was no law in the state of Oregon
making it a crime to pass these worth
less notes. The note is genuine, so
the defendant could not be held for
counterfeiting; neither could he be
held for obtaining money under false
pretenses for his name was not at
tached to the worthless article.

Portland, Jan. 17.-But one wit
ness was put on the stand today by
the government in the Hall case. E.
A. Putnam OF Fossil, Ore, was called
when the session opened this morn
ing and will be on the stand all day.
His testimony deals entirely with
the alleged combination of Steiwer
and others to fence in public lands.
Heney is exerting his efforts at pres
ent to prove the conspiracy to de-
fraud the government Of public
lands.
After having proven this he will go
on with the work of bringing In con-
nection of Hall and Edwin Mays with
alleged land frauders to develop the
conspiracy to defeat justice.
The defense is not making any par
ticular strenuous effort to keep out
Putnam's testimony. Attorney Web
ster for the defense, filed general
blanket objections to Putnam's tes-
tlmony on the ground that it had no
connection with Hall and Mays. 1t
was overruled and Putnam was al
lowed to tell what he knew of the
case

One of the most harmonious range
meetings ever held in Umatilla coun-
ty was held in Ukiah Tuesday when
Supervisor Ireland Of the eastern d.
vision OF the Blue mountains forest
reserve met with 40 cattlemen from
the south part OF Umatilla and north
part Of Grant counties, for the pur-
pose OF receiving applications for
range allotments for the coming
grazing season.
Henry Lazinka OF Camas Prairie,
has Just returned to this city from
the meeting and expresses the gen.
eral satisfaction Of the cattlemen over
the results of the meeting. The cat
tlemen from both Umatilla and Grant
counties applied for their range al
lotments directly to the supervisor
individually, without the intervention
OF a committee and allotments were
made as applied for without a single
exception.
Applications for range both in the
old reserve and also ~ the new ad-
ditlons were made. nd no further
meetings OF the cdttiemen ana fores-
try people will be necessary in that
section OF the county.
The new additions to the Blue
mountains reserve include sections of
the Blue mountains on Desolation
creek and also south OF Ukiah and
as this section OF the reserve lies ad-
jacent to the homes of cattlemen and
is their old range II was allotted TO
them as applied for without discus
sion.
Mr. Lazlnka says that but little
hay has been fed 10 cattle In the
Camas Praire district this winter so
far and that cattle are In excellent
condition. Hay is plentiful in all
the south part of the county and
should n few weeks hard winter en-
sue there would be no bad results.
Mr.. Lazinka says that Supervisor
ireland expressed a desire to meet
the stockmen OF the county PERSONAL
~ and to study local conditions In
every way in order to be able to ad-
minister affairs in the Blue mountain
reserve intelligently and satisfactor-
ily and the cattlemen are delighted
with the treatment received from
him. The harmonious meeting at
JTkiah has done much to remove old
Misunderstanding and discussions
which had grown up between stock
men and forestry officials and they
feel that little trouble will be expert
enced hereafter in securing their just
rights in the relations of the stock
men and the officials.

Welded AFTER 40 YEARS.
Lover Remained Faithful and True
During Years OF Separation.

New Haven, Conn, Jan. 17.-Aftel
waiting 40 years for each other
neither marrying in the interim, Jer-
emiah O'Hara and Helen Naughton
the former 20 and the latter 65, were
married in Stanford. O'Hara and
his bride were sweethearts when the
civil war broke out, and the patriotic
Irishman enlisted. Hearing that her
lover had been killed in battle, the
heart-broken girl left her former
home without telling her plans for
the future.
Returning from the war, O'Hara
began a search for his sweetheart
that lasted 40 years before being
crowned with success. He was de-
lighted that Miss Houghton, now an
old woman, had remained true to his
memory, and the wedding followed
Immediately.
