East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1912-08-06

AS a result of visit to the city to-
day by the three members of the Ore
gon railway commission there is good
hope that at last the long desired rail-
road connection between the O.-W. r.
& n. and the Northern Pacific may
be brought about. The matter will
be taken up by the commission, ac-
ccrding to Commissioner F. ]. Miller.
and he is of the belief that the con-
nection can be required of the rail-
roads.
All three members OF the commits
sion to-wit: Chairman c. B. Aitche-
son, T. X Campbell and F. ]. Miller.
arrived here this morning from
Kamela, where they had been to hold
hearing and straighten out a con-
troversy regarding wood shipments.
While here the subject of connec
ton between the two roads was dis
cussed with Mr.. Miller informally by
Captain c. A. Murphy, construction
superintendent at the branch hospital.
Several weeks ago the state authori-
ties suffered great inconvenience
when they received a shipment here
via the Northern Pacific and were
forced to wait several days while
the cars were shipped back to Wallula
and there placed upon the O.-W. r.
& n. line for re-shipment to Pendle-
ton. 1t is also set forth by Mr.. Muir
ply that often in the future the
state may wish to make shipments
to Pendleton over the Northern Pa
cific and that there should be some
way of transferring cars from one
line to the other. AT the present
time the only connection between the
roads is that afforded by the Byers
spur which is a private line and is
used exclusively by the Byers COM
pany.
Farmers Complain.
For years past farmers along the
Northern Pacific branch line have
been anxious for a connecting spur
here. so they could secure wood and
fence posts from the Blue Mountains.
At the present time they are barred
from getting such shipments, because
of the lack of a connecting spur and
they suffer accordingly. once be-
lOTe an tllOIl was lldut " SCNul'
such a connection, but the effort did
not succeed.
According to Commissioner Miller
the commission will take up the case
and il will not be necessary for any
local organization, such as the Com
mercial club, to present formal pc
tition asking for the connecting spur
From here the members of the rail-
road commission so to Athena. where
they are to give hearing tomorrow
to parties who are complaining of the
fencing along the line of the North
ern Pacific branch to Athena.
All members of the board have
been in eastern oregon for several
weeks. holding hearings in various
places and making estimates on the
physical valuation of the railroads

A BALD-HEADED WOMAN
Shcrn of Her Crown of Beau
ty. Loses in Love and
Marriage.

Hair is certainly most neces
sary to woman. Who could love
and marry a bald-headed woman?
What charms could one array to
offset such a Disagreement?
A woman's goal is usually love
and marriage. Her browning
glory is her hair. The loss of her
hair mars her beauty, happiness,
and success. Yet, right here in
Madison, there are thousands of
women who are neglecting or in
juring their hair to such an ex-
tent that it is only a matter of
time when it will be utterly
ruined.
Many women destroy the beau
ty of their hair through thought
lessness or ignorance Of certain
facts. They use curling irons
over-heated, or to excess, which
destroys the natural oil Of the
hair, causing it to split, break,
and come out. They do not
shampoo their hair often enough,
Or too often. They use soaps or
preparations which contain in
gradients positively harmful to
the scalp and hair.
As a result of such treatment,
dandruff is created, the hair
loosens, loses color, falls out, and
badness commences, unless prop
er and prompt precautions are
taken in time. Then again,
microbes and certain diseases
bring about unhealthy scalp and
hair conditions.
Almost any woman may rid
herself Of dandruff and diseased
scalp and hair if she will but use
the right remedy, and we will
positively guarantee that it will
either cure dandruff and bald
ness or it will not cost the user
anything.
That's a pretty broad state
ment, but we will back it and
prove it with our own money.
We will return your money if you
donot find that Rexall "93" Hair
Tonic is an entirely satisfactory
remedy that will promote hair
growth and overcome scalp and
hair troubles; that it will grow
hair even on bald heads, unless
all life in the hair roots has been
extingulshed. the follicles closed,
and the scalp is glazed and shiny.
1t gets its name from the fact
that it grew hair in SO out OF 100
cases, where it received a thor
oughly hard, impartial, and

SCHIFF is ABS0LVED BY
GRAND JURY IN NEW YORK

New York, March 29.-After examin-
ing Al witnesses the grand jury investi-
eating the case of Folke E. Brandt re-
ported to Judge Grain that in its opin-
ion neither Mortimer L. Schiff, who
employed Brandt as a valet, nor his
counsel, Howard Cans, had been guilty
of conspiracy in causing the servant
to be sent to prison for 80 years for
burglary in the Schiff home At the
same time the jury held that Brandt
should not have been indicted for bur-
glary in the first degree, but for grand
larceny The court, however, refused
to receive a presentment on this point.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Schiff had appeared
as witnesses before the grand jury.
Brandt is out on bail. Judge Rosal-
sky, who sentenced him, has set aside
the sentence and it is believed Brandt
will not be imprisoned again. In re-
porting on the conspiracy charge the
grand jury, which had heard Brandt
among others, said: THE evidence, in
our opinion, does not require the find
ing of indictments Judge Grain, in
discharging the Jury, directed its at
tention to the penalties for revealing
grand jury evidence. District Attor-
ney Whitman assured the court that
not a word of the testimony had been
made public.

IN looking over the names of candi-
dates TO be voted on at the April pri-
mary. We find second on the list OF
democratic candidates for lieutenant
governor, the name Of Charles c. Craig
OF Galesburg, who has been put for
ward by his friends for that Office
MIR. Craig is well known and well
thought OF throughout the state. He
served two terms in The legislature
and ably represented his district, and
Is one of the few democrats who has
been elected TO the legislature from
Knox county, and If nominated for
lieutenant governor viii be strong
addition TO the ticket. Mr Craig comes
OF sterling democratic stock, his father.
Judge A. NJ Craig. was for many years
on the supreme bench His decisions
we're universally in favor of the peo-
pie. and he was one of the greatest
of American jurists. The judge was
n plain man and never spoiled his
Bons.
Captain Craig was educated at Knox
college and Notre Dame university and
disappointed a cadet to the United
States navy. He. however, had no lik-
ing for that life in times OF peace and
after finishing his course at the naval
academy resigned from the service.

his candidacy for United States sena-

CRAIG A STRONG MAN FOR OFFICE
OF LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR

He afterwards studied law with the
firm of Stevenson & Ewing at Bloom
ington. of which Adlai +. Stevenson
was the senior member, and was ad-
mitted TO the bar. He was a hard
worker in his profession and became
known as a careful and safe lawyer,
and soon acquired large practice and
was entrusted with many important in
terests, but no one with a meritorious
case was ever denied his assistance
and counsel
At the outbreak of the Spanish
war. he organized and was elected
captain of Battery B, which under his
leadership became one of the best of
the volunteer organizations, but on ac-
count of the sudden cessation of hos
tilities did not get TO the front.
In November, 1898, Captain Craig
was elected a member of the general
assembly and reelected in 1900, serv-
ing on the judiciary and other impor-
tant committees and taking an impor-
tant part in the proceedings of the
! house.
| In 1904 he was appointed a member
Of the Illinois commission TO the St.
| Louis worlds fair. was made chair
man or the committee of agriculture
Of that body and ably represented the
farming interests of the state
! In 1909 Captain Craig was nominated
by the democratic party for judge>of
the supreme court in the Fifth district,
always strongly republican, and was
only defeated by a small vote, carry
ing several Of the republican strong
holds Of the district. Captain Craig
is identified with the business inter
ests of the community, being president
of one of Galesburg's leading banks
is a large land owner and interested
in many business enterprises; a thor
oughly representative man. He is well
versed and informed in the needs of
the state and well qualified to fill any
Office within the gift of the people
The office of lieutenant governor is
an important one. He is presiding
officer of the senate and necessarily
has much to do in shaping legislation
A strong man should be nominated fol
that Office and Captain Craig fills the
bill.
