Lowell Before Congregational Conference. The general Congregational confer ence Is in session at Salem. Among the many addresses before that body none was more Interesting than that of Judge Stephen A. .Lowell, of Pen dleton, which was delivered last eve ning on the subject, "Loyalty to the laws of the Country." Judge Lowell Is s, lawyer and Jurist, Is clever and conscientious and hav ing given his subject deep thought, covered It ably in every detail. Owing to Its length, space cannot be given It in full, but a few extracts serve to show the lines under which the gentleman handled his subject. The Philippines. In an able introductory In which he reviews the fundamental princi ples of the land and the value of na tions and citizens living loyally to it. he Incidentally refers to the Philip pine question as foil ws: There can be no shrinking, no backward step. We are in the Phil ippines and there we must stay until the flower of civilization shall bloom in Its beauty, and until the principles of liberty there planted shall enoble the thought of every islander and in spire the hope of every tribe. If we fail not in our duty the mantle of American justice will ultimately whiten the mighty continent where man was born', and he will be born again into newer liberties and higher aspirations. "Greater responsibilities, either moral or political, never rested upon any nation, ancient or modern. We shall prove equal to them, because failure belongs not to America, but there must be an arousing of public moral sentiment to keep the nation to its pledges, and a renewed politi cal activity among men who would hold the government above thevlevel of commercialism. We can never reach the full measure of our work abroad until we perform our whole duty at home." Laws Net Enforced. He cites a number of laws on our statute books that are practically dead or ignored. He enumerates Hhe following: "The gravest danger which con fronts this country is the multiplicity of laws in the various states which are dead upon the statute books, laws to the unceasing breath, of which .the public gives tacit assent. We are in an age characterized by lawless ness in law enforcement, a sort of re crudescence of savagery, and there is arising a silent contempt. Insidi ous and omnious, for those things which ought to receive both public approval and support. The open breaking of one law soon causes dis regard for all laws, and the influence of existing conditions is conducive to crime and productive of criminals. "The statutes of the state which i protect the Sabbath, prohibit gambl ing and the social evil, and impose a penalty upon bribery, are impressive monuments to the purity of the past, but are recognized today only in short spasms of public virtue or the vengeance of some- political boss or private prosecutor. "Laws for the protection of the sanctity of the ballot exist in state and nation, and yet to the knowledge of every observing man, primaries 'are debauched, conventions control ed. and elections carried by shame less, almost open, use of money. "Licenses are granted to saloons under clear and salutary restrictions as to permission of gaming, sale of liquor to minors and habitual drunk ards, and the maintenance of an or derly house, but although officials and public know that such restric tions are dally ignored, the cancels tion of a license is almost unknown. Likewise Ordinances. ' "Our cities "pass ordinances prohib iting vice and crime of every charac ter, nut they are generally enforced only so far as may meet the pleasuro of affect the profit of municipal rings, or secure votes for the party in power. Officers are Lax. "Officers are elected to enforce the law. They seek their positions and take the oath of office with complete understanding that the spirit of the statute requires them to actively seek out and prosecute offenders of every degree, high and low, rich and poor, humble and influential, but It Is pat ent to every observer that the averag-j peace officer falls miserably in his duty, and that certain crimes and criminals are exempt from his official attention." The Remedy, "Law In Itself Is an Important, in operative thing. It must always be vitalized and sustained by nubile sen tlment, and it dies when that power forsakes it. Law breaker, official de-1 llnquents and political obscurants know this, and fear nothing so much as organized publie sentiment. They, realize their own weakness, and de pend Invariably upon the apathy and division of the forces of right. "The demand of the age, the suppli- cauon of the weaker races of the earth, the need of America, is the coronation of justice. The recession of arrogant wealth, the subsidence of the consclensclousless parvenue. the retirement of the shuffling official, the cleansing or political life, and a renaissance of unselfish citizenship. "The comprehensive plans of the Almighty will be carried to their con summation, the law will be fulfilled by ins, let us hope, but in any event ny -a people :ioyal at once tothe im mutable moral code, and the God who declared it."

Jk. great many women suffer with q form of Indigestion or dyspepsia which does not seem to yield to ordinary medical treatment. While the symp toms seem to be similar to those of ordinary indigestion, yet the medi cines universally 'prescribed do not seem to restore the patient's normal condition. Sirs. Pinkliam claims that there is & kind of dyspepsia that is caused by derangement of .the female organ ism, and -which, -while it causes dis turbance similar to ordinary indiges tion, cannot be relieved without a medicine which sot only acts as a stomach tonic, but has peculiar nterine tonlo effects as well. Thousands of testimonial let ters prove beyond question that nothing1 will relieve this distress ing condition so surely as JLydia E. PinkhaHi's Vegetable Com pound. It always works In har mony with the female system. Mrs.Pinkliam advises sick women free. Ad dress Lynn, Mnss . How Prominent Men of Grant County View It (By a Staff Writer. The forest reserve question is agi tating the minds of thp people of Grant county. Everybody is discuss ing it and a large majority of the cit izens evidently oppose it on the plan as now laid out. Many have written on the subject and they are conversant with the sit uation and discuss it intelligently. They do not show over-prejudice, but show a spirit of liberality. I had an extended conversation with Mr. John C. Luce on the subject He Is known as the "unterrlfled mlddl;-of-the-road-er." He has a fine farm near John Day and Is a wide-awake, well-posted citizen. In reply to my question he said: "What do I think of the proposed forest reserve! Well, I think it will ruin Grant county. I also think it is a gigantic graft a huge steal engi neered by some land sharks who have bought up school lands and wish to have a reserve created including their holdings so that they can get land scrip for their 11.25 land. The differ ence in value of the school lands, (he timbered Sumpter valley railroad lands and the land owned by The Dalles Military Wagon Road Company and the land scrip they will be given in lieu of their .holdings 'vill be. over half a million dollars in favor of the land scrip. Land scrip Is worth JG or $7 an acre. Most of the land for which It will ha given is worth $1.25 an acre or less. It is a measure in the interests of outside sheepmen. It includes much agricultural land and much land of no use as a forest reserve. "You will find the sentiment of this county unanimously against the re serve as now outlined." I have talked to scores of leading men in all occupations and all are against the reserve as now outlined. though most of them favor a reserve of the higher altitudes above the heads of the streams. The whole question, in my mind, is one of the best action for the greatest good of the greatest number and the future good of the country. If the motives back of the reserve are dishonest, -If created merely to enrich land pirates and is a detriment to the country in place of a benefit, it should b defeated. If o nthe other hand, it Is a wise .thing and the op position arises from persons owning sawmill sites or men controlling graz ing areas who care only for 'their own interests, then it should be created. After an investigation from a purely unprejudiced standpoint, 1 believe the reserve is excessive, as it includes lands suited for agricultural purposes and land perfectly destitute of tim ber. I do believe, however, that the higher ranges should bo reserved by the government Overstocking should be carefully guarded against When the range. Is overstocked and the complaint is everywhere heard this year of the scarcity of feed the .sheep will brouse and thus injure the -young growth, not only by trampling, but by eaUng the tender young growth.
