WHY THEY FAIL
MOST PILE REMEDIES MISS THE
CAUSE OF PILES

Disagreeable treatment with oint-
ments or supposltorles, usually falls
to cure piles and cutting them on
won't remove the cause. Such treat
ment only moderates the outside Ell
rects of the disease and fails to RENE
dy the inside cause. The up-to-date
doctors now use internal medicine, to
free the circulation in the lower bow
ell, and so remove the disease.

was an influential man in his day In
that neck Of the woods. In the
early nineties the ranges were dry,
feed short and cattle poor. This
distressful condition Of affairs turn
ed Dams thoughts in the direction
Of the Giver Of all good, and he is
reported to have delivered the fol-

ments and executions, our federal
government is beaureaucratic and
monarchical The members of the
House OF Representatives alone are
put in Office by direct popular vote.
The Senate has y veto on The House,
the president has veto on both,
the Supreme Court has and exer-
cises an absolute negative on all
three. The president is commander
in-chief of the army and navy in
actual war, and then has an oppor-
tunity and may readily find pre-
text for putting both courts and
congress out of business, just as
Caesar, Napoleon, Cromwell and
Diaz have done. 1t is unwise and
dangerous to regulate and control
democracy by the elements of aris:
tocracy and monarchy.
Every standard author on the
first principles of our laws and gov
ernment, from Blackstone to Cooley,
has laid it down as automatic that
the inalienable or absolute rights OF
man are: l. The right to personal
security, the principal element be-
ing security to life. 2. The right
to personal liberty. 3. The right
to private property. That these
rank in value and sacredness in the
order here stated, and that their
strict and universal observance is
essential to all free governments.
Yet the foregoing self-evident
truths from the Declaration of In.
dependence were denied by every
member of the Supreme Court OF
the United States, during the very
| time it was placing on the federal
constitution the construction which
| is still followed.
In discussing the impeachment Of
Justice Chase, of the Supreme
Court of the United States, in 1906
Henry Adams says: The immedi.
ate cause of impeachment, his ad.

he was not proper person to be
trusted with the Interpretation OF
the laws. In this address he said
"* . The modern doctrines by
our late reformers, that all men In
a state of society are entitled to en-
10y equal liberty and equal rights
have brought this mighty mischief
upon us, and | fear that it will rap

ONLY \ MAN.

Thousands of devoted women
throughout the country became en-
listed in the American Woman's
League and worked hard for the sue
cess of that organization. A chapter
house was usually the goal for which
the ladies struggled. In Pendleton
the move received the support of
many because of the promise of such
a building.
If the litigation into which the
Lewis schemes have become involved
means that the league will fail and
that the chapter houses will not be
built then the news is much to be
regretted. Yet what could the ladies
have expected with a mere man at
the head of their organization? They
should have selected a businesslike
woman for their chief executive and
perhaps their dreams would have
been realized. Any man who seeks
TO head a woman's organization
should be viewed with suspicion. He
il liable to know more about psy-
chology than finance.

A BETTER UMATILLA COUNTY.
Editor East Oregonian.


No man can live alone. He may be
sufficient unto himself for a time, but
soon learns that he is only a micro
organism at best. one bacillus of
itself, is of little consequence for
good or for evil, but let its work be
multiplied by a million and the effect
is apparent. As it is with the indi-
divual, so is it with small groups of
individuals; they can not do but n
comparatively small amount of work
alone. Cooperation is the secret Of
success in our modern world.
There are several bodies of vary
ing size in Umatilla county that must
learn the lesson of combined effort,
if they are to justify their existence.
The great problem of making Una
tilla County the leader in eastern
Oregon can only be solved by bring
ing into play all the resources of the
several commercial organizations in
such a way that they may all be con-
centrated upon one phase of that de-
velopment at the same time.
Genius is but another name for
'essentializing, i. e. recognizing the
most important thing to be consider
ed at the proper time to be consider
ed, and discarding the unessentials.
Seeing clearly is one half of the task
at hand. The task clearly seen, its
accomplishment should be prosecut-

both these ends be gained.
The country is being tutored, not
only by the experiment farms, .un-
dertaken by the agricultural college
and the railroads and irrigation COM
panies. The most efficient tutors
are old and successful experimenters
like Mr.. Hanley. who have graduat-
ed from experimenting into actual,
practical farming. Their work do
f, llow them" Such as they must be
the backbone of every development
league. the small, local, groups Of
which will take up and make prac-
teal the general efforts of the big
leagues, commercial clubs, railroads
and irrigation companies.
Organize and set going dozens OF
local leagues, and the first step in
tutoring the new settlers will be
taken. An almost equally important
tutoring" is the natural and insen-
sible result of friendly reception to
be given to the new settler and his
family in the strange days of their
first arrival in the new country To
fall short in this is for the previous
inhabitants to inflict injury. it may be
unconsciously, on the new arrivals
that they never will get over.
The third and last point is TO smooth
the way of the new settler towards
successful development and conduct
of his new farm by insuring for him
commercial support in the industries
he must undertake. His first months,
aye years, will be hard shedding" for
him at rhe best. Help then will not
only keep heart in him, but vastly
quicken his progress towards becom-
ing a more than self supporting mem.
