Hodges out Of prison Reuben, was
serving q three year sentence for
grand larceny, but no one believed
him guilty, and it wouldn't make
any difference if he was. He was

over the road, and wasn't afraid OF

together On the other hand, all the
bad men were afraid of him, and
would think twice before scattering

h Governor Wilson believes the end
iustifies the means, SO he learned by
inquiry that Hodges was willing to
protect the. people. of his home in re-
Hturn for his freedom. In fact, he
was anxious to do it. The idea. of
working for many weary months in
stripes would have induced him to
take the Job if he hadn't been nat
urally a very brave man. He said
he would fight a batch of mountain
lions twice a day if he could only
lget to them, And Governor Wilson
pardoned him with the understand
ing that he protect the lives and
property Of his fellow citizens at
Lilly, and he has gone there to do it.
Hodges is a picturesque character
of the mopntaineer variety. He can
knock a squirrels eye out at fifty
yards with a rifle, has the rugged,
enduring strength Of a man who has
spent most of his years close to the
soil and in hazardous occupations,
and his nerves are so steady he can
look into the muzzle of a drunken
miners pistol without blinking. "

ges has been pardoned from the PEN

Lilly, Laurel county, wanted a town
marshal, and no one else would have
the job. III
Lilly is rough and ready mining
town. If person can contrive to
place his bunk where stray bullets
will not hit him he is reasonably
safe at night. In daytime all he
has to do, in case any one blows in
to shoot up the town, is to be on
the alert and keep where he can
make a quick getaway. ,,
The marshal had always been a
shining mark while he lasted, but
he never could get life insurance,
and the job didn't pay much. After
a time no one would run for the job
and no one would have it. ...o
Time after time marshal, was
appointed, but none would qualify.
After the male population had been
thoroughly canvassed and not a man
could be found who would face the
dangers involved in holding the

The Pleasure of Eating

The Pleasure OF Eating4fD ~
is pleasure that no one should be
denied. Life, energy, brain power,
all depend on what is eaten. One
must eat and the food must assimi-
late or there's a decline. Keep your
digestion perfect and you can enjoy
eating.
If you ever have the least distress
after eating it denotes Imperfect d.
gestion, and remedy IL needed at
once. The best remedy is POINDEX-
TER'S TONIC. Results are prompt
from this remedy because, it restores
right conditions. 1t overcomes fer
mentation in the stomach, and
strengthens the digestive organs.

FIRST CANDIDATE FOR
GOVERNOR is ANNOUNCED

Grant B. Dimick, for the last three
years county judge of Clackamas
&C unity, and for five years mayor OF
Oregon City, has announced his can
didacy for the Republican nomination
for Governor of Oregon, after being
Urged by many people from all
parts of the state to make the run.
His friends feel that should he be
the nominee of the party OF MS
adoption, no issue could ever be
made about his being of foreign
birth, or about his true Americanism,
since he was born ON a farm on Pud-
ding River. in Marion county, Ore
ron, the son of one of the most
prominent G. A. R. men who ever
drew sword in his country's behalf
1e was admitted to the bar of Ore
gon in 1895. and located the follow
ing year in Oregon City, where he
has established himself firmly in the
hearts of the people of that city and
county. He has successfully filled
the office of deputy district attorney
years; mayor of Oregon City five
successive terms, and has served as
county Judge two years. In 1904
he was presidential elector on the
Republican ticket, speaking in many
sections of the state, and received
over 10000 plurality.
The Oregon City Enterprise, in the
issue announcing the candidacy OF
Judge Dimick, has a long editorial
speaking in eulogistic terms OF
him, and pledging 5000 votes solit
from "Old Clackamas." 1t is very
early for candidates for governor
since the primary election deciding
this contest will not take place unit
in September, 1910, but evidently tbs
Clackamas man feels that if "th'
early bird catches the worm" the
prize in this case should be his.
