A Good Me ssage.

Many people right here in this
vicinity are all run down, tired
out, discouraged, don't know what
ails them. This condition is usu
ally the result of imperfect diges-
ton, overwork of the brain or body,
lack of nutrition, or some organic
trouble. If you are generally run
down, easily fatigued, all tired out,
no strength, energy or appetite,
you can not afford to delay min
ute longer, but start today to cure
yourself by taking Meritol Tonic
Digestive. This tonic will cure
conditions like this because in a
natural way it acts first upon the
stomach, strengthens the dige stive
organs, creates hearty appetite,
and makes rich red blood. II will
impart new life and strength to
every organ of the body. Meritol
Tonic Digestive has proved a good
message to many others, why not
to you? The druggist whose name
appears below is authorized by the
American Drug & Press Associa-
ton to guarantee this preparation.

The question as to whether Con

=
gFessman Ghas. H. burke Il to De-
come a candidate for United States
senator is producing sSme specula-
tion among his friends. It ia ms.
sumed that Sen. Gamble will be a
candidate to succeed himself and
with an organized force Of appoint
ees IN his support he will be a for
midable candidate. Dean Thos.
Sterling is already in the field aud
is working up q strong following.
Should MIR. Burke conclude to en-
ter the race it would make strong
three cornered fight with results
very problematical. The Dell Rap
ids Tribune comments as follows:s
Mr. Burke's long and faithful
service in the lower house of CON
gress, his consistent adherence TO
his principles as we'll as his indus
try and ability in watching and
fostering the interests of the state,
has commanded the respect of all
South Dakotans, even regardless of
factional or party lines. And when
he becomes a candidate for promo
ton to the senate, as we believe be
will, if not now at a later time, he
will do so with the assurance of
large following all over the state.
But this fact at this time be-
comes more an element Of uncer-
tainty than of assurance. With
three such strong candidates in the
field there must be great uncertain
ty of the result, or perhaps more
correctly speaking, greater certain
ty of the denomination of Senator
Gamble by minority vote.
1t would therefore seem wise for
Congressman Burke to remain in
the lower house for the present and
thus make certain the desired
change in the senate. By so doing
he will surely add to his populari-
ty and strength to be drawn upon
at future time. He is altogether
too valuable representative of the
state to lose, as might be the case
should he decide to stand for the
senate instead of a return to the
house.
Mr.. Burke's record as con-
gressman has been very commend
able and would justly entitle him
to a promotion. On the other
hand, from politicalp point of view
his candidacy would be an element
of uncertainty. Sen. Gamble, by
his attempt to be a progressive at
home and stalWart at Washing
ton, has made him unpopular with
both factions and he could not
hope to carry a majority vote in
in the state, but three cornered
fight might aflict the state again
with his election. The opponents
of Mr.. Gamble could all consist
emily support Mr.. Sterling, while
on account of previous alliances
and old political prejudices some
of them might hesitate to support
Mr.. Burke. There seems to be no
question but that Congressman
Burke can, if he desires, retain his
present position in congress. 1t
also seems practically certain that
i'll straight contest between Mr.. Mr.
Sterling and Mr.. Gamble a much
desired change can be secured in
the senate. This would very ma
terially clear the political atmos-
phere, and no doubt place Mr..
Burke in line for deserved pro-
motion in two years from now.

ORCAS

The baseball game between the
Orcas boys, new team, and the
W,st Sound Band boys was we'll at
tendet The game was quite inter
esting, the score standing Is to Is
at the end of the 9th inning. An
agreement was then entered into to
play off the tie. The West Sound
boys going to bat, they played till
they had one run andthree men out,
then refused to play longer, claim
ing the tie broken. According to
rules it appears that the game be-
longs to the O cas- boys, who, how
ever, would sooner play f r it.
Hopes are entertained lat the next
time the teams meet the game will
not be tie. Considering that the
Orcas boys had never had any prao-
hce tog ether before the match and
had one in the team lame, they did
fairly we'll.

Marital troubles at Olga

Bawling babies, frenzied women,
an excited aunty and irate husband
created some diversion here last
week. Mrs. Mary Green had a
young niece in Connecticut, who
was dissatisfied with her life there,
Mrs. Green. sent her the money to
come here. She arrived Tuesday
morning with her two little ones
one about three years old and one
less than a year old. The husband
and father followed them out here,
and when it was time for the boat
to leave for Bellingham he grabbed
the children and started back to
Connecticut. He found, however
that he could not properly care for
the children without the assistance
of his wife. So a temporary arms.
tice was declared. The couple re.
manned at Olga and an effort is
being made to arrange the matter
amicably. The man claims that
Mrs. Green induced his wife to run
away from him.

Good Church Planning

An editorial writer in the Dakota
Farmer speaks of good church plan
ming and relates the following Incl
dent: eve found in the Red river
valley last summer a church with
160 acres of good crop growing all
around it and belonging to it. The
farmers here did a little thinking
too, and before land was as high as
it is now, bought the land and by
turning out to put in and care for
the crops at just the right time were
soon able to pay for both the land
and fine little church. After that
was done they kept right on having
sociable little "bees" putting in.
caring for and harvesting the corn
and grain, and with the proceeds
are able not only to easily pay a
good minister but have ample funds
for other things church people
should spend money for. Where
there's will there's a way when
the right ones point it out"

Notice To Owners CT
Second class Tideldnds

Attention is hereby called to
chapter 36 of the laws OF 1911:
which changes the boundaries OF
tidelands Of the second class and
provides for the sale Of additional
lands in front of second class tide
lands heretofore sold. i.
The Supreme Court having held
that under the law formerly in force
the outward boundary Of such tide
lands was the line of mean low tide,
the above named act was passed by
the last legislature to extend such
boundary to the line of extreme low
tide. Until June 9th, 1911. the
present owners Of second class tide
lands sold prior to March 9th. 1911.
have the preference right to pur-
chase the additional strip lying be
tween the lines Of mean low and
extreme low tide in front of their
second class tidelands.
Applications to purchase under
such right should be mailed to the
undersigned in time to be received
before June 9th. 1911, and should
be accompanied by remittance of
one dollar per lineal chain, accord
ing to the frontage of the second
class tidelands heretofore sold, and
the further sum Of $500 in payment
of the fee for deed. After said
date, the owner will have no pref
erence right to purchase the ad-
ditional adjoining tidelands, and the
same will be sold to the highest
bidder at public auction.
The law does not direct or require
the Commissioner of Public Lands
to give any notice of such preference
right, but this notice is published
in order that all persons having said
right may be made acquainted with
the same and given an opportunity
to protect their waterfront; and its
publication is also prompted by the
fact that private persons. in no way
connected with this department,
have represented that for fee they
will give information. as to a right
said to have been discovered by ex-
animation of the records in this
office. No adverse criticism of this
department should arise from su Oh
fact, as. the office is under no obi
cation to. give this or any other
notice of the matter, and has no con-
troll over those who have advertised
the same for profit.
E. w. Ross.
Commissioner of Public Lands.

WHAT is THE MATTER WITH oREGONs SCHOOLS?

The of study that being perfected by State Supern-
tenden Alderman will probably be advance on any other
course adopted in the past.
In conversg with two very capable progressive school
teachers from Portland asked them public school
system weakest.
They said there were too many textbooks of them
abomnabe and the teachers worked to death with routine
There was no opportunity for individual initiative in helping
the children to what they needed mos all system sys-
tenn.
The schools systemttzed and extboozed DEATH and
as high as four books must be bought in the first years work
The average American wants machine everything
and the school teacher is reduced machine grnds out
what?
Oregon schools redapezed to fareyou-we and then
some, at expense of parents, teachers and children
Poor people must buy amsu of books and pads and tablets
and supplies for every child-along printed list
The soul and heart of the ground out with too much
routine and reports and examinations and institutes
There machinery and fees expenses every time you
have anything to do with the SYSTEM and school taxes are
higher and higher
Inc system expensive and cumbersome and exravagant
and burdensome the families and exhaustive the teach
eSr.
Get rid of the idea that the Oregon system is perfect
and realize that there such thing too much of good thing
The crammng of children the grinding of teachers the load
ing down OF poor people with expenses the weak points
Instead OF more subjects to teach instead of more fads and
more duties and more impositions parents give less
Ii Mr. Alderman will give horse sense i'm
proveent on the lines suggested all will say amen and call him
lberator.
But progress in perfecng the system we have to still high

lJNlIED PRESS LEASED N4hE'4
San Francisco, Aug 3l.-Labor
leaders on whose dictum hangs the
question of whether a strike Of the
federated shopmen shall be declared
against the Hartman lines west of
the Mississippi river. were still in
conference here this afternoon after
a session of some hours.
No request for a hearing from Cen
eral Manager Kruttschnitt had been
presented and the opinion was gen
eral that the labor men and the rail-
road chief would not get together un-
til late this afternoon, and possibly
not until tomorrow.
No expression could be gained from
local labor chiefs for publication as
to the prospects of a strike, but the
apparent feeling was one of pessim-
ism, and the conviction seemed to be
strong that, following Kruttschnitt' S
expected refusal to in any way recog-
nize the federation, trouble would
come.
