A COMMON COLD,

We claim that il ca ching cold could
be avoided some of fine most dangerous
and fatal diseases would never be heard
of. cold often forms a culture bed
for germs of infectious diseases. Con.
SUMPTION, pneCmonea, diphtheria and
scarlet fever, four of the most dangerous
and fatal diseases, are of this class,
The culture bed formed by the cold
favors the development of the germs of
these diseases. that would not otherwise
find Judgement. There is little danger,
however of any of these diseases being
contracted when good expectorant

Cough Remedy is used 1t cleans out
these culture beds that favor the de.

In Major Langfett's report of the
preliminary examination of the
Yaquina river from its mouth to
head of tide near Elk City, made
in the Summer of 1902, appears
the following:
In the Valley of the Siletz river,
from 10 to 20 miles north of the
Yaquina river, there is a very large
body of good fir and spruce timber
which some day may find an outlet
to market by way of Depot slough
and Yaquina Bay, in which case il
would be an advantage to have the
shoals between Toledo and Oyster
vile deepened. TO dredge the chan
mel between those points with a
least depth at mean low tide of 10
feet, for a width of not less than 100
feet, would hesitate the removal of
about 10000 cubic yards of mater
ial, at an approximate cost of $50,

Regarding The Port.


Editor LEADER: The questions
are being asked Shall we form
port and open our rivers and har-
bors to navigation? Is this plan
practical, and are we able to do so?"
| should say let us, by all means,
open our harbors and compete for
the commerce of the country. Is.
it wise for us, who live at the very
entrance of the ocean with one of
the best harbors on the coast, to send
our products 250 miles at cost of
fifty or sixty cents per hundred, to
have it loaded at another harbor a
hundred and twenty miles further
from the San Francisco market than
it is when it started? That is what
we are doing at present.
Besides, Lincoln county abounds
in natural resources, such as timber,
stone and coal, that are needed in
the markets of the world. They
are accessible by water. Our timber,
in quality and quantity, eclipses
all other forests of the world. 1t is
said that in this scope of timber we
have $4,000, 100000 of feet. Shall
we then reach our hand and use the
wealth which God has given us, or
S nall we leave it to other generatins
more worthy than ourselves?
Hitherto our county has received
but little tax from this stupendous
wealth Which has gone into the
hands OF private individuals and
corporations who are making ar
rangements to remove it from our
soil and leave us only a wilderness
OF stumps and such meager sum as
the larborer shall spend among us.
On this timber we possess the wealth
OF nation. Ninety billion feet of
timber if cut into lumber and sold
at 81 80 per thousand wCu'd bring
l,035, 100000. The present
wealth of Greece is only 81 ,055, ,000-,
600. Seventeen years ago Canada's
wealth was $3.50, 100000, while
that of the United States was SAT-,
100000. If this timber is
worth one dollar per thousand and
taxed at so cents ON the dollar it
would leave an assessed valuation of
$4,000, 900, which at our present
rate Of II mills would yield an an
nual revenue of $4,000. With
this money under our control shall
we sit like helpless babe With our
hands folded and ask Congress for
appropriation?
We do not need help from Con-
gress. We have sufficient means to
open our rivers, cut out the bars,
pave our roads and erect our public
buildings.
Do you know that if we send out
three ships day, each one carrying
one million feet of lumber it would
reql ire nirety years to remove this
lumber from our shore. And if !
properly handled in that time we
will have anew supply.
Fellow citizens, wake up! Let
the Land of Nod" nod no longer.

SETBACK FOR SUFFRAGISTS
Big Tim Gives Pledge of Support
and Then Departs for Europe.

When Mrs. James Lees Laidlaw. chair
man Of the Woman Suffrage Party for the
Borough Of Manhattan, and Mrs. Harriet
Stanton Batch returned from Albany yes
terday morning, after two days OF siren
uous and, as they supposed, successful
labor, their sense OF duty well done, re-
ceived a rude shock when they read in the
morning papers that Timothy D. Sullivan
had sailed for Europe the day before.
The object OF the pilgrimage TO Albany
was 10 get ten Senators to pledge them
selves TO vote for the discharge Of the
Judiciary Committee from further consid-
Grafton OF the suffrage bill, this being a
necessary preliminary to any further action
in the matter. Senator Sullivan gave the
desired pledge with a readiness, which. in
the light of subsequent events, has caused
some criticism, and the suffraglsts are
now securing the earth to get some one TO
take his place.
For the present their only consolation is
derived from the thought OF the trouble
they are giving Assemblyman Alfred Smith.
of the I'd Assembly District Mr.. Smith
assured Mrs. Batch and Mrs. L.aidlaw re-
Gently that there were mo suffragists in
his district" The doorben Of his home at
No rs oliver street, hasn't stopped ringing
since II is said and no one seems to know
when II will stop.
The suffragists OF the district, members
Of the Wonans Party. have been making
pilgrimages thither They come in pairs,
in squads and in battalion formation.
Working girls. school teachers, business
women, have all made a point of calling
on Mr.. Smith 10 tell him that they want
votes, and incidentally beg him TO do what
he can to secure the discharge of the SEN
ate Judiciary Committee.

sides After the dessert is taken from the
stove set il where it will become very cold.
and lust before serving decorate the island
or islands with stars of currant jelly.
Sometimes a little of the currant jelly is
melted and stirred into the egg whites
giving the islands delicate pink tint The
only objection to this IS that the color
sometimes spreads into the hot custard
beneath. If the egg whites are not added
10 the custard until it is cold this will not
happen but the white will not be cooked,
and unless highly favored with extracts
will have a raw taste.
Floating islands are very pretty when
tinted in several coors. An old recipe book
of the eighteenth century recommends a
dessert Of this kind. Instead Of a thick
custard q sweet cream is used a founda-
ton and If the cream is whipped till partly
stiff so much the better. One island Is
colored pink, another green, another yellow
and so on. A few drops OF huckleberry
juice will give a lavender tint to one or
two The yellow may be colored with the
yolk OF an egg. spinach green may be used
for the green and melted currant jelly or
red sugar for the red or pink.
A dessert with some of the islands snow
white and others a delicate pink. resting
against pale yellow custard. is very deco
rstive.
Sometimes the bowl the dessert is served
in is lined with macaroons. A delicious
flavor for a floating island is bitter almond.
1t combines nicely with currant jelly, and
has more character than vanilla. It is an
especially appropriate flavor when the des-
sert dish is lined with almond macaroons.
Gouffe gives a rule for what he calls
snow eggs" which are very much like
floating island The islands of egg white
are. however. moulded in the form of eggs
with a spoon and then piled on a platter.
and the custard they were cooked in is
served in a boat beside them.
Prepare a thick boiled custard sauce and
keep 1t very hot in a double boiler on the
front of the stove. Have ready some egg
whites beaten very stiff. sweetened and
favored with almond or vanilla. With a
and put it carefully on top of the custard
Let 1t stand four minutes, then gently turn
Il over and let IL stand another four min
utes. The custard should not boil, but re-
main just below the boiling point. Lift up
the egg and place it gently a des-
sert platter. Cook another spoonful and so
on until all are cooked If the pan is broad
cooking at once. Decorate the base OF the
pile of snow eggs" with stars of currant
Jelly Any superfuous juice that may drip
from the mass should be drained of be-
fore serving.
