EDITORIAL. xue noseonrg riamaeaier says that the drunken Greeks attacked and killed tho foreman's wife while nnrjsr the inflnenco of liquor. This happened at Glonbrook, thirty-two miles south of Rosebnr, and tho militiVwas called out to arrest the rioters. This simply emphasizes the fact that Douglas county could profit ty the Local Option Law. Temper ance is not a breeder of disseution and lawlessness. Skulkers are not Wanted. Candidates who expect to run for office next year should bo a little careful how they express themselves on local option. Coos Bay Harbor. Men wfio are unwilling and afraid to express Ihe&selves on any rniblic question are not fit persons to hold public offices of trpst, and are no guar antee to the safety of tho interests pf the public. They might suit the Harbor but there is a large class of the voters of Coos county which will pot bo sorted by such politics aud who will persist in candidates taking their stand bpfore the day of election passes by. The man who will sacrifice his con victions for a paltry office is one who cannot be trusted. If he is true to himself, ip soph case, be would also sacrifice the interests of his patrons when an opportunity offered and the sum that would entipe him would not have to be prodigious in bulk or quantity either. If the candidate has the manhood to take a stand and declare himself then you know where to find him and be is to be trusted more than oue, who for fear of losing the position coveted, will not make Lis position known. We had sooner vole for a man who is opposed to our views than one who is afraid to announce his po sition. In the former we would ex pect that he would do what he agreed to do. but on the other there could be pq dependence. The local option question is one that will be very promiuent in the next election and there is'a large class pf voters who do not want skulkers in the field. The self respecting, moral voters of Coos connty want to be rid of the sin. shame and crime that come through the liquor traffic and they will make an open fight to rid themselves of tbis curse, while there are two or three classes who will fight to con tinue this evil. One of these classes is made up of those who are addicted to the stim nlating effect of alcohol and who have been so thoroughly conquered by it that they have not the will power to resist its influence hence they are slaves and will vote for their master. A second class will desire to retain the curse in order that their city taxes may be lightened as tb.e license goes to pay tho expouses of the town in which it is granted. Well in regard to this class we wil say that it is but a low standard of dignity that would desire easement at the sacrifice of the means necessary in many instanpes for tho comfort of women and chil dren, whose husbrnds and fathers waste thir earnings for drink. A third class, and the ono who has displayed tho greatest degree of con tempt for law, are those who are willing to sell and take the earning of their fellow man for something tbt is an injury to the ono who drinks it. Money is what this class wants and they will sell it without regard to the consequences and suffering that may entail. It is sold to the confirmed drunkards, to tho drunken men, and to the mjnor, all of which is unlawful. It is monoy this class want and no matter what happens through the effect of drink, they will still deal out the death dealiug, soul destroying drink whose train reeks ip murder and other crimes. Yes the public wants men io office who will declare themselves apd who have backbone enough to enforce the laws tbatare placed upon the statute books, and the motto should be, "No others need apply."

Olympia, Wash., Wet 11 "Ninety Bowie," sole survivor of the Alamo, more than 100 years old, but still do ing daily labor in a loggiug camp, is here today to attend the funeral of Grand Socretarv T. M. Reed, of the Washington Lodge of Masons. Bowie is a Mason, and was raised within a Koutucky Lodge of Masous Si years ago. That is certain. It 1ms boon checked up. Bowib's story is that he is a cousin of the famous Colouol Bowio, and that ho was bom in Ken tucky. His prized posonsionis a hand made bowio knife of immense size, which tho Colonel gave hi'ii. Ho tolls of being in the Alamo in 1S30, whou Santa Ana and his 1500 Mexicans sur rounded and butchered 110 Texuus and then killed tho six who sur rendered, March G. That year Bowie claims to have escaped through a water pipo into which he frawlod. Ho served in tho Mexican war and is still drawing a pension from the Govern ment, despite the fact that during the Civil War he fought on the Confed erate side. He drifted up this way about twelvo years ago. and applied for wurk in tho logging camp of tho Siuipson Logging Company in What com Connty, whore he has been 0111 ployed ever since. He does his day's work every day, and is strong and active. He said he was DO yrara old 12 years ago, when he arrived there. aud is known throughout the woods as ''Ninety Bowie." During the Span ish Wht ho tried to eu fist, but was rejected. Ho votes tho straight Democratic lcket every election, attributes his ougovity and health to the fact that ho drinks straight Kontnttky whiskoy. Religiously, every Christmas aud Fourth of July, ho gets intoxicated with the bovs. lie says he intends to work three more yours aud then r- lre on the little money he has saved. Sol. G. Simpson, ovvoer of the camp and ono of the best known lumber tnen of the state, has luvestigaed the story and believes it true, Invest ma- 1011 through Masonic channels also confirms Bowie's claims. Today in the funeral line Bowie walked as briskly as any of tho others. His slight stoop and a multitude of wrinkles in his parchment :like. shrunken face, alone give evidence of his great age. The old man cannot make himself well understood in con versation, as during the Civil War a bullet tore away part of his month and palate; but those who have been associated with him at ttio 1 ggin g ramp and have learned touuderstaud his talk, affirm the trutu of this strange story. A Judicious Inquiry. A well known traveling man who visits the drug trade avs he hasofteu heard druggists inquire of customers who qsked for a cough medicine whether it was wanted for a child or for an adult, and if for a child, they almost invaiiably recommend Cham berlaiu's Cough Remedy. Tho reason for this is that they know there is no , danger from it and that it always j cures. There is uot the least danger in giving it, and for coughs.' colds aud croup, it is unsurpassed.

It may be a pieco of superfluous advice toprgo people at this season of tho year to lay in a supply of Cham berlain's Cough llempdy. It is al most suro to bp needed before winter is ovor, and much more prompt and satisfactory results are obtained when taken as soon as a cold is contracted, and before it has become settled in the system, which can fonly bo done by keeping the remedy at hand.

Home Benin; mother, yonr boy will remain For a time, at least, in tho old home again How Rood to see yon in your cornered nook With knitting, or sewing, or ynpor, or book Tao snrue sweet mother my boyhood knew The faithful, tho patient, the tender, the trao. 'Von hove little changed; nh, well, ronybo A fov gray hairs in the brown I see; A mnrk or two nnder smiling eyes, So lovingly bent in your glad surprise; 'Ti'h I who haye changed; nh, mother mine From a teasing lad to manhood's prime. "No longer I climb on your knee nt night For a story told in the soft firelight; No broken bate, or book all torn, Do I bring to yon with its odgos worn ; But J'll come to you with my graver wires You'll help mo bear them with tender prayorg. ' I'll on mo again as of old, and yon Will help tho man to bo bravo and trne, For the man's the boy, only older grown, Aud the world has many a stepping stone. Ah, mother mine, there is always rest When I find you iu tho old home nest." Kind words nro liko jewels in the heart, never to be forgotten, but per haps to cheer by their memory a long, sad life, while words of cruelty are like darts in the bosom, wounding scars that will bo borne to tho gravo by their victims. Never bo too tired or too busy to weleomo an abseut one's return with a pleasaut greeting. If at auy tune reproof be necessary, give it gently and firmlj', bp I uever on tho eve of parting nor on tho abseut ouo's re turn. Let pleasaut memories hallow the parting hour and the home com ing. In the very begiuning it was decid ed by tbe highest authority that it was not good for man to be alone, aud we don't wouder at it when we look about us andiseo how much some men expect of their wives. Wo road somewhere recently that 'of all creat ures in the rorld a mau is the most helpless alone. A chicken two hours out of the shell can take better care of itself thau a man can." Of course a woman wrote that, aud the next conclusion is that that woman has washed her husband's neck aud ears ever since sho has had him, and has made him just the helpless croaturc that he is. The question is often r.sked, is mar riago n failure? Wo say no, if yon don't expect too much of it; but don,t run tho risk of trying to reform a man after marriage. Iu all probabil ity yon will be disappointed if you do. If your husbaud used tobacco when you married him, tho Bible for bids curtain lectures afterward, for it says, "ho that is filthy, let him be filthy slill." There is a bright side to everything if you will only look till yon find it. If your husband smokes, be thankful he don't chew; if ho smokes an 1 chews both, be thank ful be doesn't drink; if he does all three, be thankful that he won't 1 ve long. There aro very few children indeed who over got over their early training. In my native town, there stands, in front of the school building, a large oak tree. When this tree was quite small, a boy climbed to the top of it, aud swinging off by his weight, pulled it over to the ground. It still show tho effect of that bending. How many people go through life with their characters all bent and warped for the want of proper early training. Being gentlo and tender iu her nature woman comes iu closo contact with children, wielding an inflnenco that no ono else possibly could. Had it not been for tho wise consecrated Christian mother, this country might uover liavo had a character so noble as that of Georgo Washington. Of how many mothers might it bo said as a great man once said of his 11.pt h or; ''All that I m, or ever hope to be, I owe to my mother." OUU CHILDREN. Homo should be made the most iu teresting and loved spot on earth, uot merely four sqnare walls of wood aud brick; it should bo tho fountain of civilization: the very word should touch every fibre of tho soul, aud strike every cord of the humau heart with its angelic fingers, a place where thought is centralized on tho higher and better things of life, bringing forth in tbe highways and byways an iufluenco that will bp felt by all with whom it comes in contact. It should be a place where the heart is, a place where onr feet mny leave but not our hearts, a place where angelB uufold their wings, tho place we love best because it js tbe place where mother is. Man can build the house and roof it in, a resistance against storms and elements, but the man with all his genius aud artisan science cannot make the home; that over has and ever will be tho task of woman. It is she alone that can bring to it warmth and beauty; here she reigns supreme. Let our honies be places of love, Royal Bak MT J? yV Wll is made of Grape Cream of Tartan Absolutely Pure.
