to many people here is the article

giving a simple prescription. which Is
said TO be a positive remedy for back
ache or kidney or bladder derange-
ment, Ii taken before the stage Of
Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract DandeliOn, one-half
ounce; Compound KargOn, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Shake we'll la bottle and
take Ia teaspoonful doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well-known druggist here at
home, when asked regarding this pre-
scriptiOn, stated that the ingredients
are all harmless and can be obtained
at small cost from any good pre-
scriptiOn pharmacy, or the mixture
would be put mp II asked TO do so.
He further stated that while this pre-
scription is often prescribed 10 rheu-
matte Affections with splendid results,
he could not see why 1t would not be
a splendid remedy for kidney and ur-
mary troubles and backache as IL has
a peculiar action upon the kidney

ALANIENTABLE DEATH.

BY the death of Governor Johnson
the country loses one of its foremost
men and Minnesota a popular idol
Aside from w. ]. Bryan he was the
most conspicuous member of the DEM
ocratic party and he apparently had
the lead for the next democratic
nomination for president. There are
some who believe that had Johnson
been the nominee last fall democracy's
chance of victory would have been
greater. AS to this it is futile to spec
Mate. He lacked the personal ability
ard brilliancy of Bryan but had he
been the democratic candidate he
would have had the prestige of
successful political career whereas
Bryan suffered through having been
twice defeated for the presidency.
Like most other big men Governor
Johnson rose from the ranks. OF fair
native ability he grew by the work he
did as is true of all men who achieve
any degree of greatness. His prln-
cipal strength lay in his rugged hon
estv and in his close sympathy with
his people and with the people of the
middle west. He was a sincere ad-
vocate of the welfare of the state OF
Minnesota and so was neither a DEM
agogue nor one who walked with
those who would deal unjustly with
the many for the benefit of the few.
Had Governor Johnson lived he
would probably have been the next
democratic nominee for president and
he might have been elected. There
are strong signs that Taft will not
succeed himself. But he did not live
He was stricken down while yet in
middle life.

deal with subjects that are Of practi-
cal value to mankind. From the dead
languages one never learns how to
apply electricity, to judge soils, to
fight horticultural pests or TO make
two blades of grass grow where but
one has been grown.
Because agriculture is the basis OF
our civilization it is especially import
ant that agriculture and kindred sub
iects be taught in our schools. The
giving of such instruction will afford
students some needed information and
will arouse an interest that will lead
them to make further and deeper in
vestigations. Therefore the course
will work for a higher state of agri-
culture while at the same time CIV
ing students mental training just as
valuable as that secured from study
ing such subjects as Latin and Greek,
The establishment of the course in
agriculture in the high school was
proper move. Now if the course is
but made of proper strength and the
right sort of instruction given the
local high school will become a better
and more valuable institution than 1t
has ever been in the past.

IT WILL BE BETTER.


There are signs that the district fair
to open next week will be just a little
better, livelier and more interesting
than ever before The various towns
of the two counties seem to be show
ing more spirit in the matter of ar
ranging booths and the exhibits in
general should be an improvement
over that of any other fair. Then in
the way of entertainment there will
be more for the people. One Of the
best bands on the coast will supply
music; there will be some high class
vaudeville specialties and for two days
broncho riding tournament that in
itself will be worth going a long way
to see. Considering everything "our
fair" will be decidedly worth seeing
and unless all signs fail the attend
ance this fall will break all previous
records,

THEIR TOWN.

Pendleton will welcome the wool
growers when they meet here on No
vember 9th and 10th and will welcome
them with warmth. There are sever
al reasons why Pendleton should do so
and will do so.
In the first place the city appreci-
ates such conventions as tnat of the
state woolgrowers' association. We
like to have good people come within
the gates of the city and Pendleton
likes the name of being a good enter
tainer. Last June the city entertained
the Knights of Pythias and did it well.
1t was pleasant duty and we did not
lose anything by it.
But there is an especiai reason why
the city should make a fuss" over the
Pendleton is th> WOOL
center of the northwest. More wool
is shipped from Pendleton each year
than from any other one point west
OF the great Mississippi. Pendleton
has the most up to date woolen mill
in the northwest and it has one of the
most active securing mills. This city
is the home of the president and sec
retary of the state woolgrowers as
ISOLATION and it is the headquarters
Of the state sheep commission and or
The state sheep inspector. This city
IS always the headquarters for the
wool buyers during the wool season.
So the people of the city will nat
lrally feel acquainted with the WOOL
growers and will want to make them
feel at home in Pendleton. When
they are here for the coming state
let us make them feel that
this is their town.

DIR, COOK AND THE NORTH POLE

To set a question mark, however
small, against the message from DIR.
Cook, announcing that he had reach
ed the north pole, would be to be-
tray a spirit of ungenerous and cap
tious criticism. The conditions of
complete isolation which must neces-
sariy surround the man who launch
es himself, with two native helpers,
into that uncharted sea of eternal si-
lence and frozen desolation, are such
that the waiting world to which he
returns-if he ever return-must
needs accept his story of a successful
quest without expectation of absolute
verifcatlon or disproval. For the
theoretical point which we call the
north pole lies, as was generally sup
posed, and as DIR. Cook has now prov
ed, in vast field of eternally drift
ing ice. Any monument set up by
the explorer at the exact axis of the
earth in attestation of his crowning
triumph, would be carried down
over the dome of the world, to be ul-
timately lost in the more southerly
seas, or cast up, with other flotsam
and jetsam. on the northerly coasts
In the interests of scientific ac-
curacy there will. of course be a sub
sequent verifcation, as far as it is
practicable, of the distance covered
and of the observations of the sun
as taken, during this wonderful jour-
ney; but this investigation will not
be made because of any doubt as to
the actual presence of DIR. Cook, on
the twenty-first of April, nineteen
hundred and eight. at the North
pole.
The man who can look Death full
in the fact throughout all the cruel
sufferings of a two years search for
the secret of the frozen north, is built
upon lines too noble to admit of the
slightest subterfuge or misrepresenta-
ton; and there are certain features
of DR.. Cooks expedition, notably the
total absence of ostentation in the
manner of his setting out. which
should at least have sealed the lips
of those who have received the news
of his success with outspoken incre-
dulity.
Most of the great achievements of
science, whether in the way of inven- |
tion or discovery may be regarded |
as the total result of the separate ef-
forts of individual men. To some one |
among the many it has been reserved |
to win the coveted goal and have his |
nPme written forever above its por-
tails; and he above all others realizes |
and is only too glad to acknowledge, |
how greatly his success is due to the |
labors of his predeces- |
sors. Each unsuccessful seeker for the |
north pole gathered his quota of val
liable experience, and the facts as /
thus recorded have been of priceless |
value to those who came after. DR..
Cook. himself an Arctic explorer of !
no little experience, will be the first
to acknowledge his Indebtedness to
that splendid band of men, beginning |
with Sir John Willoughby in 1858
and ending with Peary, who blazed
the way for his own magnificent sue

THE AGRICULTURAL COURSE.

In establishing a course in agricul-
ture for the high school the Pendle-
ton school board has taken an ad-
vanced step and one that cannot help
resulting in benefit to the school and
tJ the community.
It was the belief Of the old time
school of educators that learning and
culture could be derived only from an
extensive study Of the classical lam
guages. coupled with some mathe-
matics, history and science. But that
theory was exploded long ago. In
the middle Of the last century Huxley
pointed out the folly Of such a course
and showed plainly that England was
suffering because education in that
country looked to no useful end.
Since Huxley's day new school OF
educators have come to the front and
they have reversed the old order Of
things. The sciences are now at the
top Of the curriculum for the sciences

HENPECKING A PREMIER.

Is England any longer, a free coun-
try? We are moved to doubt by the
cable which represents the premier
indulging in his favorite game of
golf with a squad of husky police
men to keep militant suffragettes
away from the links. Ms. Asquith's
fear of these tempestuous termagants
is by no means a foolish or ILL
founded apprehension. They have
smashed the windows of his official
residence in Downing street. They
have jeered into silence members of
his cabinet who tried to make pub
lie speeches. They have slapped,
kicked and clawed the police who
barred their way into the house of
commons, and on one occasion they
stealthily invaded those sacred pre-
cincts and defied removal by chain
ing themselves to an iron railing.
Women who do these things will not
hesitate to break up a golf game. I'm
agne a Gordon of blue-coated guar
dians drawn around the Beverly links
while Mr.. Taft is playing a twosome
with General Edwards or tina Mrs.
Carrie Chapman Gait and Dr. Anna
Howard Shaw, supposing them to be
as instrusive as their British proto-
types, should not worry him into a
foozle. No; our suf.idgists are better
hammered than their English sisters
and our executives are consequently
safer The British premiership is a
proud position, but it has its draw
backs when the responsible head of
an empire on which the sun never sets
has to call in the police to protect
him from a handful of women

SHAKESPEARE AS SHE is SPOKE

The Shakespeare Club Of New Or
leans was noted for it's amateur per-
formances. Once, a social celebrity,
gorgeous in the costume Of lord in
waiting, was called upon to say: 1.-The
queen has swooned"
As he stepped upon the stage his
friends applauded vociferously. Bow
ing his thanks he faced the king
and in a high-pitched voice, said:
The swoon has queened."
There was a roar Of laughter. He
waited patiently until it had subsid-
ed and tried again: 1.-THE sween has
cooned."
Again the house roared and the
stage manager in a voice that could
be heard all over the theater, said,
Come off. you doggoned fool"
But the ambitious amateur refus-
