OlCOtt to
Hold Place
Four Years

A certificate of election yesterday
issued to Secretary Of State Olcott by
the governor gives the period for
which the secretary was elected as
four years.
On account of the irregularity
caused by the appointment instead of
the election Of Mr.. Olcott, after the
death Of Secretary Benson, a Ques-
tion had arisen as to whether he would
serve a two or four-year term after
his recent election, 1t is barely pos
sible that the courts may decide that
Mr.. 0lcott is not entitled to a term Of
four years, it depending upon the con-
struction placed upon the wording of
the law.

WOULD BE MORE HUMANE
AND "N0T COST MUCH

c. N Macarthur, Of Portland, ex-
speaker Of the Oregon house of repre-
sentatlves, will introduce a bill in the
legislature providing that criminals
convicted of murder in the first de-
gree shall be punished by death in the
electric chair, instead of by hanging.
Mr.. Macarthur has been collecting
data on the subject and declares that
the chair can be installed at small
expense, One OF his arguments in ia.
vor of the bill is that 1t is a much
more humane way of putting crimin-
ais to death than hanging.

LIVES SAVED BY TELEPHONE.
One Man Drank Poison, and Another
Severed Four Arteries.

Within the last several days two lives
have been saved over tie telephone.
Rev. ]. w. LentZ, OF Orders, Breth-

his medicine. NO physician being here,
his family got instruction from distant
physician. Antidotes were administered
and his life was saved.
William Mionich, in Pendleton county,
tried 10 cut bullet from the breach OF a
gun. The knife slipped and severed four
arteries in his wrist. He was in danger
of bleeding TO death. DR.. Meyers, at
Oak Flat, six miles away, gave instruc-

STATE OWES HIM MUCH
Wilson's Splendid Record as New
Jerseys Governor.
College President, and a Good Ono,
but He Also Proved Himself
Thorough Man OF
Affairs.

The other day In a hotel lobby, In
which politicians love to congregate,
the talk turned to presidential posi-
bihties. A man from the neighbor-
hood OF Evansville brought up the
name of Woodrow Wilson.
81 don't believe that man who
has been college president would
ever make a good president. Besides
what has he ever done?"
Just at that moment a travelling
man was introduced who hailed from
Trenton, N. j.
81 don't know all he's DONE" said
the man, II am not at home more
than few months year. The rest
of the time am so busy l don't read
the newspapers except for weather
conditions and headlines. Out this
way the newspapers don't print much
eastern news"
But you know some OF the things
he has DONE" said the man who was
acting as interlocuter.
what has he done," said the man
from Evansville, smile of victory
playing over his face. They say
Wilson was just a college president
when he began and they said he would
never be able to put through the list
of progressive things that he stood
for. But when the Legislature met,
he put through a lot Of things.
What were they?" A corrupt prac-
tice act, that grafters are afraid of;
a workman's compensation act, pro-
viding for automatic payment for in
juries and loss of life; reforms in rail-
road taxes; regulation of cold storage
houses; non-partisan ballots in cleo
tons: commission government for cit
les; a public utilities law fixing the
responsibility for law violations on
the officers Of the corporations. The
bill gave commission power to make
rates and to appraise the physic.
value of public service corporations.
There were lot more but ] can't
remember them went away about
that time" But" said the man from
Evansville. THE Legislature did those
things"
"You bet 1t did," said the man
from Trenton, at had to-you see Will

have an operation. Iwould not listen to
that, and when friend of my husbands
told him about Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound and what it had done
for his wife, l was willing to take it.
Now look the picture of health and feel
like it, too. / can do all my own house
work, work in the garden and entertain
company and enjoy them, and can walk
as far as any ordinary woman, any day
in the week. Iwish l could talk to every
suffering woman and girl, and tell them

Compound has done for me. Mrs.

Compound.

Woodrow Wilson's Tariff Views.

"T believe In a tariff for revenue,
only but / recognize the fact that our
existing economic system has been
built on the opposite theory. Any
change in our scale OF duties ought
to be brought about by prudent and
well considered steps, and with states
manlike regard for every legitimate
interest involved. We ought not to
impair our industries or imperil the
employment Of our working people.
Everybody will agree that If our
tariff policy is indeed to be protec-
tive. and to seek the objects which
It has always pretended to seek. It
is perfectly legitimate that It should
pay a very careful regard to the bust
ness interests of the country taken as
a whole. But that Is very different
matter from paying regard to the In
dividual interests of particular under
takings and of particular groups of
men. The long and short of the whole
tariff legislation has degenerated from
q policy of protection into q policy of
patronage"

STANDS With PEOPLE
Woodrow Wilson Essentially and
Fundamentally Democratic.
His Public Utterances on Matters OF
Grave Public Moment Have
Shown the Voters He May
Be Trusted

One OF the traits which shines
forth most conspicuously in the make
up of Woodrow Wilson Is his mar
velous felicity Of phrasing. He Is
speaker OF rare attractiveness, his
points always clearly made and force
fully put He holds with ease his au-
dience and never tires them. 1t Is
doubtful If the argument for a COM
mission form of government could be
presented more attractively than was
done by Gov. Wilson In recent Bal
timore speech when he said:
heard a gentleman today-this Is
none of my business, and l bring it in
parenthetically (Laughter)-I heard
gentleman say today that he did not
want to see a commission government
IN Baltimore, because he knew certain
gentlemen who had an organization
that could capture all Of the commits
sicners. | said to him, what better
fun do you want? Let them have
them. It Is all in the open, and you
will have the best sport of your life
to see them perform. (Applause.)
Give me the harness and the whip,
and do not care what team you
supply me with; just get in the COM
manding position, put curb-bits in their
mouths. hold the reins-and | think
American opinion knows how to hold
them and have the whip, and II they
do not keep to the road am poor
prophet. (Applause.)

Painful Feet.

Pain in the feetiu walking is generally
due TO the weakness or the actual break
ing down ofthe arch of the foot-or rather
OF the arches, for actually there are two.
The second is a transverse arch at the
base of the toes. When il gives way, the
foot broadens out, and since the spring
of the toes is lost, the step is less elastic
and often accompanied with pain.
In rare instances the arch is not broken
down, but is rather exaggerated, and the
heel is somewhat raised; the condition,
in fact, is that of incomplete clubfoot. In
walking, the heel barely touches the
ground, and any attempt to bring it down
firmly and completely strains the muscles
in the calf of the leg and causes pain.
Another cause of painful feet is a equity
or rheumatic condition OF the fibrouS
structures.
This brief account of the causes OF pain
in the feet shows that it is impossible to
say offhand what will bring relief. Al
most always, however. even in cases
that seem purely rheumatic, much relief
comes from walking more on the outer
side of the foot; the patient should not
toe out, but should point the feet straight
forward, or even toe in somewhat. That
relaxes the tension on the ligamentS that
support the arch and allows them to re-
cover their tone.
When the effort to force the foot into
this position is irksome or painful, the
patient should have the soles and heels
of his shoes built up with layer OF
leather on the inner half, so as to throw
the weight of the body on the outer side
OF the foot and relieve the arch from pres
sure. If that does not bring relief, it may
be necessary to use an arch-support
That, however, should be done only on
The advice of the surgeon, for in certain
cases the support Aggregates the condi-
tior and prevents the strengthening OF
the ligaments thai support the arch.
If caused by rheumatism or even by a
fault in the arch, pain in the feet may
often be relieved by bathing them morn
ing and night in solution OF EPSON salts,
in the ratio of two tablespoonful to a
pint of water.
