Inactive Kidneys
Cause Disease

I shall not sOOn forget the benefits derived
from the use Of Foley Kidney Pills."-AL. A.
Godfrey, Forest Grove, Oregon.
Too much work and too little work
seem to have about the same effect
on persons past middle age. Proper
action of the kidneys is necessary to
good health. They act as a filter
and remove from the blood poisonous
waste matter which If permitted to
remain in the system leads to many
complications.
Many nervous, tired, rundown men
and women suffer from pains in the
back and sides, dizzy spells, bladder
weakness, sore muscles and stiff
joints and fail to realize thai rheuma.
tism, diabetes or even Bright's dis-
ease may result.
If you have cause to believe that
your kidneys are weak, disordered or
inactive you should act Immediately.
Foley Kidney Pills have been used
by young, middle aged and old with
complete satisfaction. They act quick
y and sure ly and have given relief
In cases OF ten years standing.

WHY DO THEY FAN THE
FIRE?

n Tis a significant thing that
the newspapers of what
may be termed the ultra
conservative type in this coun-
try are the most radical in
their comments on the sinking
of the Lusitania.
This feature of the situation
in the United States has been
the subject of comment by at
least one eastern newspaper
the Boston Post. 1t is also point
ed out by the Post that the
great eastern papers of popular
circulation are much more
temperate in their treatment Of
the situation and in their de-
mands for reprisals upon Ger
many.
What is true in the east is
true in the west, to an extent at
least. The Oregon newspaper
taking the most rabid attitude
upon the subject is the Portland
Oregonian-the organ of tory
ism and reaction in this state,
On the other hand the Jour
nal-the leader of prOgressiv-
ism in Oregon, is more disposed
to be calm. 1t is making no
fiery demands upon the presi-
dent but wishes him to solve
the problem on basis of peace
if peace is possible.
Why, why, are our tory
newspapers so willing to see
this country plunged into war?
1t is a question of intense inter-
est and the subject may be
deeper than appears upon the
surface.
The suspicion is held by
many people that one reason
the masters Of Europe did not
avert the present war lies in
the fact they feared the ad-
vancing democracy of the peo-
ple-which in Europe they call
socialism.
1t is thought certain classes
of Europe welcomed the war
because they knew war would
check this problem by placing
millions Of brave, aggressive
men beneath the sod.
Is this why our tory papers
are so ready to see this nation
burst into flame?

THE STATE HOSPITAL
ROAD

~ HERE is justice in the re-
W quest of the Commercial
Club that the state high.
way commission pave the road
from the city limits to the State
Hospital.
Of the $250,OO0 state money
in the highway fund this coun-
ty has contributed Substanti-
al sum. Unless some work is
done here we will be paying
out money to the state and get
ting nothing in return.
It is the policy of the state to
do work in counties that dc
something themselves and upon
this score we may justly claim
recognition. When the high
way to Milton is completed
Umatilla county will have com.
pleted a 40 mile macadam road
the only real permanent
road ever built in eastern Ore
gon-and this road will lead
through Pendleton to the State
Hospital.
Strictly upon its merits the
Commercial club request
should meet with favor.
Eastern Oregon has to con-
tribute to the highway fund.
We should get at least a few
feet of road work.

With an expression of panied pride
the old lady sat down on the couch

It has been said of Mrs. Burke that
she is responsible for the 4S cases of
typhoid that developed among peo-
pie who attended the Oak Park high

served at the banquet was blamed for
causing the typhoid. It was claimed
that Mrs. Burke made the salad.
Loop newspapers have printed col

GOSSIP q azzsEEs sz99zs SMITH:

WASHINGTON. D. c.. July 10
In an interview with John S. Koran.
state fire marshal for West Virginia
today at the Releigh. he was asked
what effect the establishment OF
state fire marshars department had
upon the reduction OF fire losses. Mr..
Koran said that those states which
maintain departments OF this kind
have shown marked decrease in the
total value Of property destroyed by
fire.
THE animal fire loss in West Viz
ginia," said Mr.. Koran, is in the
neighborhood Of $2,000.00O 1t has
been estimated that at least seventy
FIVE per cent OF this loss Is unneces-
sary and could be prevented. Insur-
ance being only contribution paid
by the people OF the state as a whole
to those who have been unfortunate
enough to suffer loss by FIRE, it can
readily be seen that reduction OF the
FIRE loss Of the state means a reduc-
ton of insurance premium to the peo-
pie directly interested. It Is the duty
OF the fire marshal's department not
only to investigate fires which seem
to be incendiary origin. and the pros
ecution of those guilty Of this crime.
but quite an effort is made along the
line OF fire prevention and the remov.
al Of fire hazards.
In the event of death or injury re-
sulting from defective buildings, weak
walls, foundations. etc, reCorse is
had to our civil courts. and sometimes
criminal prosecution follows as well.
However, 1t can readily be understood
that criminal negligence can as well
exist in permitting dangerous con.
dition to obtain with reference to the
liability for fires which may not only
destroy the immediate but adjoining
properties. The people OF the state
have become aroused to this fact and
are interesting themselves in the re.
moval Of those menacing conditions
wherever they are found to exist. and
are insisting on general cleanup OF
fire hazards. With very few excep.
lions the people OF the state are full
~ alive to this unnecessary loss and
are cooperating with my department
with the result that a marked decrease
in FIRE losses has ensued."
When questioned as to the political
situation in West Virginia with refer.
ence to candidates, Mr.. Koran de.
clared that there had been very little
equalization Of public sentiment.
There has" he said, been marked
comment upon the candidacy Of Hon.
John s. Darst for the Republican nom
nation for governor. Mr.. Darst has
