Charging w. j. Clark, assembly
candidate on the Republican ticket
for state printer and William Baker
a printer, who filed Clark's argu-
ment advocating his nomination
with the secretary of state, with mia-
representation and falsehood and &
violation of the direct primary law,
Willis S. Dunniway, direct primary
candidate for reelection on the Re-
publican ticket for the same office,
today filed with the secretary of
state protest against allowing the
argument to be printed in the pub
licity pamphlet which will be sent to
every registered voter.
Dunniway construes the argument
in addition to being favorable ID
Clark's candidacy as an attack upon
himself and his administration as
state printer. AS the direct primarg
law designates August 16 as the lat
est date at which arguments can be
filed against a candidate and also
provides that a copy of them must
be served on the candidate attacked,
he contends that the present argu-
ment being filed August %, the lat
est date at which arguments can be
filed favorable to a candidate and
be printed in the pamphlet, is in vio-
lation of the direct primary law.
While the argument pretends 70
be in favor of the candidacy of
Clark and does not refer to Dunni-
way by name directly it makes use
of the word, "state printer" and
throughout is sprinkled with the
words "he" and his, and this
method Dunniway contends is but
a covert way of attacking him so as
to evade being compelled to file the
argument August 16 as he would
then have an opportunity of filing a
reply. Being filed August %, how
ever, he is deprived of this right.
He further alleges that on Angus
20 he consulted the chief clerk OF
the secretary of states office as t.
how late that day arguments favor

date would be accepted and was told

RIDDLE CLAIMS 1T is
ENTITLED TO DEPOT

A complaint was filed today with
the Oregon Railroad Commission by
business men of Riddle and against
the Southern Pacific Railway COM
pany asking the commission to order
the company to provide the village
with depot.
The petitioners say that from
time to time they have petitioned the
company for a depot, but that their
petitions have gone unheeded and
they now desire action taken. The
commission will take the subject up
with the railroad company and if the
matter can not be settled a hearing
will be ordered.
The commission today also re-
ceived an answer from the Southern
Pacific company to the complaint
against it by the Medford Traffic
Bureau in which that organization
asks for better distributing rates for
the town of Medford. The answer is
in the form of general denial.

the last leg of his foot journey from
Minneapolis to the ranch of a

He was employed at a Touring
mill at Minneapolis until this sprin z

for the aged man to continue his
employment. He thereupon under

Love began his walk with only 81

LIGHTNING FLASHES.

Lightning flashes in a storm are
found by an English observer TO be
much less irregular in period than
they appear. Such storms have
usually two foci sometimes three
from which the flashes radiate,
and the discharges from each come
at regular intervals. The apparent
irregularity is due to the varying
rates of the different centers. In a
storm of July, 1905, the two foei
we're about a mile and a half apart,
and in an hour the northern center
emitted 30 flashes at intervals of
IS, 30, 45. go and 30 seconds, and
the southern center gave l6 flashes
at intervals Of II, 81 and 81 Sec
onds. Another unexplained obser-
walton is that just before each great
flash there is momentary faint
lighting up of the sky in the storm
region.

WHISKY AND ITS ORIGIN
Facts About the Invention Of the "a
nous Irish Brand.

The word whisky is Of Irish
origin. Indeed, The Irish claim
that whisky itself is of Irish origin.
and, moreover that the Irish taught
the Scotch people how TO make
whisky. AS for the name, it springs
from the Irish word uisgue, which
means water. The distilled spirit
was called by the Irish in ancient
times uisgue bertha, or life-giving
water.
Distillation is a process said to
have been known TO the Arabians
in remote ages, but the first author
to speak Of it explicitly-and he
speaks of it also as recent dis
covery-was chemist who lived in
the thirteenth century, Anomalous
De Villa Nova. Nova deemed dis
tillation TO be the universal panacea
which all ages had sought for in
vain.
The cry of modern degenera-
ton" was raised even in those far
Off days, and pupil Of Nova, one
Raymond Lully of Majorca, ac-
claimed distilled waters as divine
emanation, declared that it was
destined to revive the energies of
"modcrn decrepitude." This aqua
vitae, indeed, denoted the consum-
nation of all things in the brain of
Lully; it heralded even the end of
the world
1t is a legend of st. Patrick that !
he was the first who instructed the
Irish in the art of distillation. Ger
tain modern historians. however,
holly contest this, setting forth the
evidence Of authentic sources of in
formation that St Patrick was an
exceedingly strict promoter of tenn
perance. Distilled spirit, whether |
brandy or whisky as we know it to-
day, was in early ages for medicinal
and not as a beverage.

FEAR TsETsE FLY.

Will the tsetse fly invade India?
This is the question that is just now
exercising the minds of certain Of
the rulers of that country. The
general opinion seems to be that the
danger is as yet fairly remote, al
though each year brings it nearer.
But all authorities are agreed that
if the pest ever does make its ap-
pearance there the results will be
terrible. For it is now established
that the bite Of the tsetse is the
cause of sleeping sickness, one Of
the few diseases for which there is
absolutely no known remedy, and
of which there have died within the
last few years in the Uganda pro-
tectorate alone more than 10000
people. Now the fly, which was
formerly confined to certain small
cifcumscribed areas, has spread it.
self practically all over equatorial
Africa, following the lines of the
freshly opened trade routes, and
carrying with it wherever it goes a

peoples hitherto immune. "The fly
of death" is what it has been chris
tened by the natives of German
East Africa, where the pest recent
ly made its appearance.

TO THE END.

"A curious story is told of a cat
which lived for some years in the
underground stables Of coal mine
1t was always to be found in the
stall belonging to an old donkey
when that animal was resting from
its labors," says Chums.
"One day. owing to the careless
ness of its driver in unloading it.,
the donkey suffered a severe strain,
and was quite unable to perform its
daily work.
"For nearly a fortnight the
donkey lay in agony in its stable,
and during that time the cat scarce
ly ever left its friend.
Sometimes the pit lads would
drive it away, bat it would always
steal back again. and when the
donkey died as a result of its in
juries the cat began to howl pitiful-
", and would not be- comforted.
"But the climax came when they
were taking the donkcy's carcass to
the surface. The cat began to
scratch and fly at the men who
were removing il, and became so
violent that it had to be killed"

LIGHT AND THE BLOOD.

DR.. Oerum of the Finsen insti-
tutc at Copenhagen has just carried
out o number Of experiments on the
effect Of light on the blood. He has
found that darkness reduces the
total amount of blood by 3 to 3.3
per cent, while decreasing at the
same time the amount of blood con-
tanned in the heart. Red light has
an effect like that of darkness. while
blue light is apt to result in an ex-
cess of blood and an increase in the
amount contained by the heart.
Light baths are likely to increase
the amount of blood in the course
of four hours. Darkness will in
crease and intensive light will re-
duce the blood pressure. Animals
born in the dark or in red light
have a greater weight but only half
the amount of blood of those born
under normal conditions.

A SCHOOL OF DUELINC
Frenehmen Taught How to Behave On
the Field Of Honor.

Although dueling has long been
laughed out Of court in this coun-
try, our continental friends by no
means share our opinion of this
method of settling affairs of honor,
says a writer in the Wide World
Magazine.
Though the French duel is usual
ly carried through without any seri-
Gus injury TO either combatant, it
is regarded with grave considera-
ton, and every detail has to be
attended to most punctiliously.
In order that gentlemen who may
be called upon to defend themselves
at the point of the pistol may have
some training for the ordeal, there
has been established in Paris a
school of dueling, one prominent
member being ex-President Casimir-
Perier.
This academy is conducted by DR..
de Villers, and combats frequently
take place there by way of practice.
In these mimic duels wire masks
are worn to protect the face and
bullets made of wax are used, so
that no injury may be sustained by
the combatants.
In all other respects, however, the
conduct of the affair is carried
through as on the field of honor, so
that when the time comes-if it
ever does come-for the scholars to
take part in a serious duel they may
acquit themselves with credit TO
and disaster to their ad- |
versary-although this latter point /
is not Of much importance.

Requires No Cultivation and Yielcs
When Five Years Old.

In describing The cultivation Of a
hardy variety of rubber tree in
Cuba writer in the National Mag
azinc Of Cuba says that il is advis-
able to plant the small trees about
six meters apart. In this way, at
the age of IS to 90 years the trees
having reached height Of say 30
feet do not interfere with minor
CIVILIZATIONS.
While the trees are reaching ma
turity the grower can raise beans,
nuts or cassavas, malanga, cotton
and maize The pineapple will
make a profitable interpolated crop.
The caoutchouc requires no cul-
tivation, the grass and the yegeta-
ton assisting the young plant, and
when older the shade eliminates all
useless grasses and herbs. The tree
can be tapped at the fifth year, but
more satisfactory results will be at
tanned by waiting until the sixth
year, and then, instead of abstract
ing two or three pounds of juice it
is prudent to take no more than one
to one and a half pounds, according
to the development of the tree. An
average of one and a half pounds
would be very reasonable.
If methodically handled the rub
Der tree is extremely long lived, and
from the eighth 10 the tenth year
the tree will produce about six
pounds annually and still remain
in condition to give service many
years to come.

HEATING POWER OF WOOD.

Contrary to widespread belief
that hardwoods give more heat in
burning than soft varieties, Tie
scientists at Washington are con-
tending that the greatest heat
ing power is possessed by the
wood of the linden tree, which
is very soft. Fir stands next
to linden, and almost equal 10 it.
Then comes pine, hardly inferior to
fir and linden; while hard oak pos.
sesses eight per cent. less heating ca
pacity than linden, and red beech
ten per cent. less.
