Making Good.

There is no way OF making lasting
friends like making Good;n and Doctor
Pierce's medicines well exemplify this,
and their friends, after more than two
decades of popularity, are numbered by
the hundreds of thousands. They have
.made good" and they have not made
drunkards.
A good, honest, square-deal medicine of
known composition is DR.. Pierce'S Golden
Medical Discovery. It still enjoys an inn
mense sale, while most of the prepara-
tions that have come into prominence in
the earlier period of its popularity have
rgone by the board and are never more
heard of. There must be some reason for
this long time popularity and that IS to
be found in its superior merits. When
once given a fair trial for weak stomach,
or for liver and blood affections, its supe-
rior curative qualities are soon manifest;
hence it has survived and grown in pop
articles have suddenly flashed into favor
for a brief period and then been as soon
forgotten.
For torpid liver with its attendant
Indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, per-
haps dizziness. foul breath, nasty coated
tongue, with bitter taste, loss of appetite,
with distress after eating, nervousness
and debility, nothing is SO good as DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It's
an honest, square-deal medicine with all
Its ingredients printed on bOttle-wrapper
= no secret, no hocus-pocus humbug,
therefore don't accept a substitute that
the dealer may possibly make little big
ger profit Insist on your right to have
what you call for.
Don't buy DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton expecting it to prove rcure- ALL" It
Is only advised for woman's special ail-
ments. 1t makes weak women strong and
sick women well. Less advertised than
some preparations sold for like purposes,
its sterling curative. virtues still maintain
its position in the front ranks, where it
stood over two decades ago. AS an in
MIGRATING tonic and Strengthening nerv-
Inc it is unequaled. It won't satisfy those
who want abooze," for there is not drop
of alcohol in it,
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, the o7igi-
nal Little Liver Pills, although the first
pill of their kind in the market, still lead,
and when once tried are ever afterwards
in favor. Easy to take as candy-one to
three a dose. Much initiated but ,seuer
eQ1IQLed.

Commenting upon the announced
intention of Judge Hadley to retire
from the supreme bench. the Belline-
ham Herald says:
"Since the judiciary Of the state.
under the direct primary law, is non
partisan. the counties of Skagit and
San Juan should effect combination
and work for the election Of judge
Joiner. democrat. to place on the
supreme bench to succeed Judge Had.
ley. The republicans may find bet.
ter man but one with higher oualifi.
cations will not be easily located in
the Northwest.
IL Will be news to Judge Joiner's
most OF friends to learn that he has
ever been suspected of being Demo.
crat. The Herald. however, should
be given credit for good intentions
and the Islander can most cor1i.,l,
endorse its suggestion and its oom
mendstion of the judge.

THE LOCAL OPTION ISSUE

Almost simultaneously with the
ADOPTION OF a local option plank in
the Whatcom county Republican plat
formal the instance. it is said. of
Governor Mead. comes the an
noupcement that the State Liquor
Dealers Association ''has organized
ninty five per cent of the saloon men
of the state and pledged them to work
for Mcbride" who vetoed local OPP
ton bill when be was governor and is
regarded by the liquor dealers as be-
ing friendly to their interests. There
are a great many keen business men
among them, as we'll as shrewd polIti-
cal workers, and there is not the
slightest likelihood that they would
organize their forces ii behalf of the
ex governor if they did not have
ample assurance as to''where he is at"
on>the liquor question.
If the local option resolution adopt
ed by the Republicans of Governor
Mead's home county was placed in the
platform by suggestion of the COVER
nor it ought to and doubtless will
bring to bis standard many thousands
of the states best citizens who have
not hitherto evinced any special in
terest in his candidacy.
Local option is one of the foremost
questions before the American people
today and every man who seeks the
suffrages of the people for the legis.
lature, or for the Office of county COM
missioner. should be called upon to
declare himself unequivocally for or
against the local option principle.
so that the issue may BIZ clearly
drawn. The principle is as important
as the principle of government "of
the people and by the people, under
lying the direct primary law. If the
people of any corporate community
want saloons. let them have them. If
they don't want them they should
not be forced upon them, regardless of
their wishes. by the arbitrary action
of county commissioners. The term
corporate community" applies to
counties, which the law regards as
municipal interpretations.
The islanders position in this mat
ter is precisely the same as it has been
for many years. It has been con-
slant advocate of local option under
its present ownership and has not been
sparing in it's criticism of members
of the legislature from this county
who have either lodged vote on To-
cal option bills or voted against them.
The attitude of Representative Shultz
upon this question is we'll understood.
He refused to pledge himself to sup
port local option bill and naturally
he received the enthusiastic support
of the liquor interests, and many
professed temperance people aided in
his election. 1t is unreasonable to
complain about the position of the
liquor dealers. They are conducting
a legalized business and it is only
natural that they should do all they
can to protect their interests. Local
option does not necessarily mean the
exclusion of the saloon from any COM
munity. It simply provides q just
and lawful means Of Enabling the
people themselves to decide the cues
tion.

Chief Justice Hadley. of the state
supreme court, has announced that be
will not be candidate for reelection,
although not the slightest opposition
to him has been manifested in any
an immense majority would have been
a foregone conclusion had he consent

retire is much regretted, for he is
not only lawyer of fine ability but
just and upright judge and a man
of the highest character both in
public and private life.

ANDREE'S BONES
 FOUND, IT IS SAID.
Arctic Balloonist's Grave Is Discovered In Labrador.
CROSS BEARS HIS NAME.

Captain of Fishing Schooner Digs Un-
 der the Headpises and Finds Human
 Remains and Box Containing Pa
 pers-Nothing to Show What Became
 of Hsro's Two Companions, Who
 Made Ascent With Him Eleven
 Years Ago.
 St. Johns. N. r., Nov. 12-Captain James Chalker of the schooner Pilot of Bugus reports that he has found the body of Professor s. A. Andree the arctic explorer, who in 1897 tried to reach the north pole in balloon.
 While fishing in Mugford bay, north ern Labrador, Captain Chalker says, he started overland across the cape to Black Duck bay, three miles distant and came upon grave surmounted by a cross bearing the inscription An dree, Nov. :, 1S97."
 The lettering was very faint, and 1t was difficult to tell whether the date of the month was Nov. or [, but he decided 1t to be the latter.
 He dug under the cross and found human remains and box containing papers. Captain Chalker said that he removed the cross.
 The place where the cross was dis covered is an absolute desert and is rarely visited by the Eskimos. What became of Andree's two companions is problematical, but light probably will be thrown upon their fate by an ex- animation of the papers.
 Captain Chalker is a half caste Eski- mo, who took part in the landing of the Peary expedition in Greenland.
 The point where the grave was found is about three-quarters of mile distant from the coast. Captain Chalker says he could locate the grave again very easily.
 Disappeared In July, 1897.
 The expedition to discover the north pole organized by Professor s. A. An dree, Swedish explorer left Danes island. Spitzbergen, in a balloon on the afternoon of July II, 1897. Pro- lessor Andree had two companions, Strindberg and Fraenkel.
 On the day he started Andree shook hands with those friends who had assembled in the balloon house and addressed heartfelt words to those whose hands he could not shake.
 Then the three men-Andree, Strind- berg and Fraenkel-standing in the car, severed the ropes holding the bal loon, while. Andree counted, "One. two, three" With the last word the balloon rose majestically, while Andree smiled down upon those who remained be- hind Then all three waved their caps and shouted, Greetings to all at home in Sweden"
 Professor Andree first began the study of air currents In 1877 when on voyage to the United States with the idea of crossing the Atlantic in bal loon. Between 1892 and 1897 he ex- perimented in Sweden with the help of King Oscar. The famous balloon in which he started for the pole was con structed under the superintendence of NJ. Lacha mbre.

 On the occasion of MT. Hitchcock's next visit to Mir Taft at Hot Springs, Va, on Nov. 21 many matters bearing prominently upon the coming admins tration of Mir. Taft will be considered. The fact that Mr. Hitchcock will be in Hot Springs for an entire week has given rise to the belief that cabinet, diplomatic and other important ap- pointments will be discussed.
