LA Toilette
CHAMPIONED
BY BOURNE

United States Senator Jonathan
Bourne, Jr., of Oregon, has given out
an interview in which he endorsed
the candidacy of Senator La Toilette
for the Republican nomination as
against President Taft,
Senator Bournes statement Is in
the nature of challenge TO big
business" and meets the charge OF
iudlClallsm, which has been lodged
against La Toilette by placing against
this statement the legislation enact
ed In Wisconsin under the leadership
of La Toilette. Bourne said:
why have | for months been so
inslstently for senator La Toilette for
presldent2 Because he has many
of the qualifications which | believe
are absolutely necessary for man
to possess In order to properly NIL the
high Office OF the nations chief pub
lie servant, He believes In popular,
not delegated government; realizes
that general welfare, not selfish In
terest, must be the motive power Of
all successful and permanent gov
eminent. He Is honest courageous,
able, dynamic, with 25 years expert
ence In legislative and executive pub
lie life. Though radical in manner he
Is extremely conservative in thought
and action, with high ideals, broad
IDEAS and strong convictions. Gener-
al welfare Is his goal, and selfish in
terest his abomination.
Il urge the big business interests
OF the country to study the laws Of
Wisconsin enacted since he was first
governor Of that state; hold him as
the dynamic personality of that cleo
torate, responsible for all those laws,
II investigation shows them to be
protective OF personal liberty and
property rights, bitterly oppose his
candidacy, Such an investigation
will show Wisconsin laws TO be con-
struotiye, not destructive; progress
sive not reactionary iutelllgently
conservative, not blindly radical
Senator La Folette is u states
man, not politician; a deep think
or, not demagogue. His candidacy
presents an opportunity to nominate
and elect a president ON his record,
and not on another mans endorse
ment or promise to follow in anoth-
er's footsteps. He can, and, In my
opinion, win be nominated. and Il
nominated, will unquestionably be
elected

A HARMLESS WAY To
DARKEN THE HAIR
A Little Sage and Sulphur
Makes Gray Hair VantSh-A
Remedy for All Hair Troubles

Who does not know the value Of sage
and sulphur for keeping the hair dark,
soft, glossy and in good condition? As
matter of fact, sulphur is a natural ele-
ment of hair, and a deficiency of it in
the hair is held by many scalp specialists
to be connected with loss of color and
vitality of the hair. Unquestionably,
there is no better remedy for hair and
scalp troubles, especially premature gray
ness, than sage and sulphur, if properly
prepared. The Wyeth Chemical Com
pany Of New York put up an ideal rem

and Sulphur Hair Remedy, and author.

When the board Of county commits
sioners, late yesterday afternoon,
made an order appropriating half of
the cost Of the construction of the
Newberg bridge 1t made certain the
construction Of that absolutely nee
essary Improvement, and 1t inciden-
tally made certain the construction
Of modern highway from this city
to Newberg, which, when connected
up with good highway leading from
there to the city of Portland, will
make a complete first-class highway
from the Capital City Of the state to
It's metropolis.
The delegation appearing before
the board to make a request for the
appropriation asked that $45, 900 be
appropriated, as 100000 was esti-
mated necessary for the construction
OF the bridge The board of county
commissioners of Yamhill county, it
was represented, would appropriate
the other half. After an investiga-
ton of the subject, however, the
board decided that the better plan
would be to make an order apprOprl-
atlng half of the construction price
OF the bridge whatever 1t might be,
whether a little more or little less
The delegation will now take the
subject up with the board of Yam
hill county, and, which 1t is said, IA
yOrs building the bridge, and there
fore a similar order from that board
is assured
Develop Much Territory.
The construction of the bridge and
the building of the highway from
here TO Newberg will develop an inn
mense stretch of territory in that
portion of the county, which has lain
dormant for the lack of either rail-
road or highway facilities. The bridge
and the highway will give the people
residing there an outlet to a market,
and the sparsely settled country Will
In few years be dotted with homes,
and land will leap from $40 to 800
or more, as It is as fertile as any in
the county, and has been selling at
low price, simply because of the lack
Of railroad or highway facilities to
market the produce.
Also Means Highway.
In addition to this It means the com
pletlon Of n highway from here to
Portland, and that means much to
the Capital City, as we'll as the lands
through which It will pass. The peo-
pie in the vicinity of Newberg and
st. Paul promised II an appropria-
tion was forthcoming from this court
that they would levy n tax on the
road districts for the construction Of
this highway, and before many weeks
have gone by the dirt will be flying.
When ready for construction work,
they will be given the use Of con-
yicts for much OF the work.

Was 1t an Earthquake.

Sheridan, Or, Sept. S.-People are
still in a quandary concerning the
unusual disturbance which awakened
so many citizens of this and sur
rounding towns on Friday night of
last week People, who were awak-
ened, say the sensation received was
not at all unlike that of a distinct
earthquake. The disturbance lasted
for about three seconds and windows
and doors were ratified and jolted Sc
verely.
1t was at first thought that one of
the safes in bank had been blown
open and others attributed the con-
cussion to rock blasting on some of
the new roads near the city. Citi-
zens of Willamina and vicinity were
also awakened by the shock.

THE OREGON
ELECTRIC
TO EUGENE
PRESIDENT CARL GRAY, OF THE
HILL LINES IN OREGON MAKES
DEFINITE STATEMENT THAT
ROAD WILL BE BUILT AT ONCE.

Last nights Oregon Journal says:
"The Oregon Electric will be ex-
tended to Eugene this year. How
much Of the work will be done be-
fore the rainy season sets in depends
upos the progress we are able to
make in making right Of way adjust
ments. The people of Eugene are
treating us with most liberal spirit,
and | believe the extension of cleo
trio transportation to this point in
the Willamette valley will result in
great development and untold bene-
fits to the people themselves"
This positive statement was made
this morning by President Carl R.
Gray of the Hill lines in Oregon. Mr..
Gray came back yesterday from Eu-
gene and Albany where work on the
extension of the Oregon Electric
from Salem has already commenced
He expressed unqualified surprise
that there should be, as reported, an
idea that the building of the Oregon
Electric to Eugene may not be COM
pleted for three years.
All Doubt Removed.
The extension has been definitely
agreed upon" said Presidest Gray.
There isn't any doubt about it what
ever, and we will work just as rapid
ly as possible, consistent with ad-
justment Of right of way matters"
President Gray was one of the
speakers yesterday before the Ad
club and what he said then will be
long remembered by those who are
lntelligently interested in the devel-
Opment of Oregon. He urged that as
colonists come to Oregon both this
fall and in succeeding years, fullest
possible preparation be made to To-
cate them on the land and there
teach them how to be successful in
soil cultivation by having men quail
fed to instruct get right out on the
land and show the man how to do
the work. President Gray urged soil
tests that will establish beyond uues-
ton what crops will be most success
full on certain lands. lie urged the
support of the agricultural college,
saying its work must be fundament-
ally important in the coming sys-

Experiment Stations.
In this connection the report that
the Central Oregon Development
league, the business interests and
he railroads are preparing to estab-
lish two central Oregon development
stations-one in irrigable country,
one in the dry country-has been of
great interest These will be expert
ment stations or extension schools.
where qualified experts will be
placed at the service of both new
cOmers and old residents, teaching
them how to work, what crops will
flourish best, how they may make
the most money and originate the
most business. The two stations will
cost together $4,000 and the people
interested expect to finance the pro-
jects until the legislature recognizes
Its Importance, and takes charge of

MIR. CoNNER's POSITION.

MTR. CONNER says that he intends to act with
i the other Republicans in Council to assist
in giving the city an economical administration.
We hope he will do so, but if he had such views
in mind, he had queer way of showing his good
intentions by thwarting his party associates
There was no great principle involved that would
lead a man to bolt or to justify such conduct. AS
a matter of fact the Second Ward Councilman has
in measure nullihed the will of the voters of
the city who turned the city over to the Repub-
licans and expect to hold the Republicans account
able for its proper management
The act of the Second Ward Councilman, we
fear, will cause bad feeling among the Councilmen
especially his party associates and there may be
a repetition of unpleasantness similar to that
which surrounded the conduct of Senator Drexler
in the State Senate. This is the time above all
others that Council should work in harmony for
the best interests of the city and not waste energy
on petty political squabbles We think that Mr.
Conner has damaged his own usefulness as we'll
as that of Council as a whole. II is very unfortu-
nate that Council should begin its work with
squabble of this kind.

rule of the lower by the higher. They may be-
eve that all our troubles are because "dema-
gogues," as they call them, seek to interfere with
the interests" We have no fault TO find with
them for holding such ideas. We do find fault
when men of such notoriously narrow views have
toe much TO say in our political affairs.
We don't think all the wisdom of the world cen
tiers in men who are successful in business, ac-
cording TO the worlds standard of success And
neither do we think that all the wisdom justice
in the world centers in the so-called working
classes Wisdom and justice and fairness reside
more in the individual, regardless of his pecun-
ary material success.
Many rich men are high-minded and honorable
and fair, just others would have been pirates il
they had lived in the days of Kidd Many men who
have not the faculty of attaining wealth possess
the same fine qualities that have mentioned,
while others lack the faculty of success in business
and possess little worthy of commendation.
