You are perhaps aware that pneu monia always results from a cold or from an attack of La Grippe. During the epidemic of La Grippe a few years ago when so many cases resulted in pneu monia, it was observed that the attack waa never followed by that disease when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy was used. It counteracts any tendency of a cold or L Grippe to result in that dangerous disease. It Is the best remedy in the world for bad colds and La Grippe. Every bottle warranted.

VICTORY FOR SIDE OF RIGHT Greatest Battla or the Session Eiitlas it sum A STRUGGLE FOR RIGHT Passage of the Daly Text-Book Bill Places tbe Book Trust in Fair Competition With Other Sellers. Salim, Feb. 16. There it little quet tioo that the greatest battle of tbe ses sion bat been between the friends of the Daly text-book bill and tbe American Book Co., and the dramatic scenes en acted in tbe house yesterday as the atruggle was drawing to a close were not entirely unexpected. It has been a struggle between princi ple and the beat interests of the public schools on the one band, and a book trust that has been charged, either rightfully or wrongfully, with levying tribute on the schools, on tbe other. This tribute, according to the allegations of those who have been in the thickest of the fight in opposition to tbe contin uance of the book trust influence, has been predicted both upon tbe excessive prices charged lor tbe school books and tbe poor quality of the books themselves, Now that the back of this to-called hydra-headed octuput hat been broken, more successful future for the education al work of tbe state is predicted. The American Book Company, against which to much has been said, is still in the ring, but only in competition with other publishing bouser. It it now a free-for all fight for preference and the books that may in the future be adopted will have to win on their own merits. There is no denying tbe fact that the American Book Company has done its utmost to defeat the Daly bill, and this fact perhaps, coupled with its cheap and useless lobby, has operated in the suc cess of the bill. The paid agents of tbe book company have had little influence on the members of the bouse and tbe bill, might prehaps have been much more easily defeated had they kept out of the fight. As one member remarked yesterday. "Such a lobby of itself is sufficient to defeat any bill." Had thit fight culminated earlier in the session sensational development! no doubt would have followed the charges of bribery and corruption . yesterday made by FUgg and others upon the floor ot the bouse. Representative Fordney claims he hat always been opposed to the Daly bill, but Editor Holer, of the Capita! Journal, contends otherwise. LET US ASSIST IT. We Are Indebted to the Boy. and Olrle' Aid Society, Which Meed A.alatanc. It is greatly to be regretted that our legislators did not tee fit to aid in a more substantial manner one of the best factors for genuine good in the state tbe Boys and Girls' Aid Society, of Portland, which has for some time past been in the most straitened financial circum stances. Through thit society's bands pass annually an average of 264 children gathered from -11 parts of the state ; chil dren who are taken from homes of degre dation and want to receive the best of training from officers who are kind hearted and in every way competent to bring a child up in the way it should go. It would be thoroughly impossible to find a better superintendent than Mr. Gardiner, who, phile he demands obedi ence, hat a manner which draws each child to him, having therefore the beat of Influence over them. He ia also full of life and wit and ii capable of attract ing the sympathies of those committed to his charge in this way when others fail. Mrs. Graham, the matron, Is a woman thoroughly suited to her posi tion, giving the little waifs a motherly care not found in homes they are taken from. Wasco county has great reason to feel deeply Indebted to this lociety, which has taken numbers of homeless, oncared for boys and girli from ber midst and placed them in the best of Oregon homes. Our people should therefore takeadeep interest in the we'fareof this institution, aiding it individually when ever practicable. Just at present Is a good time in which to look into this matter and see wht can be done, aa from an estimate care fully made by the mperlntendenf, there is needed for the cominxjtwo years, $11, 654, and the income to he depended npon It onlv 3954, leaving a deficit of 7."0i). Therefore, If no other aid ft rf calved, it will be impossible for this good work to continue. THE INLAND FLYER. lederaelnc itenstTO Alteration at Sapplo'a Yard. Joseph Supple, the boatbuildei on the East fcide, has jost received from Chi cago a new propeller for the D. P. & A. S. Co.'s tteamer Inland Fiyer, which was built at Mr. fen pple'i yard last sum mer. The propeller is solid, made after the pattern of the sectional one heretofore used for ascertaining tbe pitch required. A condenser baa also been connected with the boiler, a contrivance that is sup posed to make it eay work for tbe fire men to keep op steam. Another im provement has been mado in that the boiler grating baa been changed to wood burners, instead of coal burners, asorigin ally. This will reduce the cost of fuel considerably and it is said to be more advantageous in other wayi. After nil the above-mentioned change! have been aicomplished the excursion season will be here and then tbe boat will go on ber regular run between Portland and The Dalles, making daily round trip.

FORRESTER ON TRIAL THE COURT ROOM PACKED TO HEAR THE CASE TRIED. k Number or ihe Kye-Wltne to tbe Killing of I'hlllp Brogan Examined. When court convened yesterday after noon the room was packed with people interested in the Forrester case. Many were compelled to stand as every teat wat taken. Several ladiet were present and seemingly took at much Interest in the case aa the sterner sex. When For rester was brought in, all eyes were turned toward him, as the majority of tbe public had never teen him. He ia a tall raw-boned man, of light complexion and walks with a twinging gait. During the afternoon his wife sat by his side and teemed very devoted. She is small woman, dark complexioned rather good looking and of pleasing countenance. Forrester sat quite still during the day, but did not seem to know what to do with his bands. He rolled and re-rolled silk handkerchief and then would rub his hands together, appearing to be deeply interested in all that was going on. He hardly seemed to note the immense crowd that had gathered to hear what the witnesses had to say in regard to the killing. The state opened its case by calling Fred Wallace, who testified that he wat authorized bv Brogan to make a settle ment with Forrester, but could not as there waa a difference of several dollars a month, in the wages between the par ties. He was a good witness and was perfectly at ease while on the stand. He wat followed by Antone Nelson, who testified that on going to supper he stopped at Dial's saloon, and, looking in at the window, he taw Forrester sitting at a table talking with a man called Slim. They called him in and all took a drink together. Forrester and Slim then left tbe place, crossing the street and going into Silvertooth't saloon. A few minutes later Nelson's attention was sailed to racket in feilvertooth's, and he ran over there and found that Brogan had been wounded. Brogan was placed on a bed and Nelson tore his vest and shirts off to see where the wound was. He then went for a doctor. Just here court adjourned until 7:30 p. m. When Nelson wat cross examined. Frank Gumm waa then called and every word of his testimony waa eagerly listened to. He was rather nervous while on tbe stand, but told his story In a straight forward manner. He testified that while coming up the stteet on the afternoon of the killing he was beckoned to by Brogan, who at the time was standing on the atreet talking to For rester. When Gumm came up Brogan asked him if be bad seen any of his sheep in the mountains when he came from Bear creek: He replied he had not seen any live theep, but had noticed several dead ones and they appeared to have been killed by varminta. Forrester and Brogan then engaged in conversa tion regarding a settlement. Brogan said he would settle as he agreed to at $45 a month, when Forrester replied he did not understand it that way and would have all that he demanded or nothing at all. Brogan then started to leave and Forrester acted as though he was going to strike him, when Gumm spoke up and said, "You deo't want to have any trouble oyer the matter." Bro. gan then went into Silvertooth's saloon and Forrester called Gumm to one side and shook him few times, asking him what be meant by talking about bim and circulating reporta in tbe Mitcholl country derogatory to him. Gumm re plied he had said nothing but what lie would say to his face. They bad a few more words and Gumm took off his coat, when the marshal came along and quieted the matter. Later, Slim, the Spaniard, Forrester, Brogan and Gumm met in 6ilvertooth'i saloon. Slim invited all hands to have a drink and Gumm thanked him and said he did not care for any more. Bro gan also declined and said, "You don't snow what onr trouble Is." Slim then spoke op and laid, "Shed your coatt and go at It." Gumm looked around and thought the Spaniard wat going to get In the mix up and aa Forretter made a step forward he, Gumm, .took off hit coat and made for Forretter. He wat interrupted by two different men but succeeded In getting away from them, and reaching Forrester bit him a blow with his fist, knocking him to the floor. At thit time the Spaniard grabbed Gnmm by the throat and began chok ing bim. When be got away from the Spaniard and regained hit breath he taw Forretter with knife In hit hand and Broan staggering backwards. As near" at be could state he thought be saw Forrester go out of the back door, but being rather excited he wat not tare. The defenie croet-exaroined Gumm very minutely and brought out all the facts in detail. It was nearly 10 o'clock when court adjonrned. MOBNIXO. SSKSlOX. After ctnrt met in the morning, Chu. Clarno.of Antelope, wat the tint witnent called. Mr. Clarno wat asked by the prosecution If when he first taw For rester, he (Forrester) had anything In bis hand. The witness replied tbatT) rester had knife in his hand, bat b he ma not tee nim nntil after FonJ) had been knocked down. The Pro' tion objected lo the latter . 1 M h question and moved that it be strm-v ) and the defense resitting the mmu. I y legal argument resulted nmed a great portion of the fJS in. The motion was finally alltJ and the answer was stricken out. ) In the cross examination of ClaraetJ attorneys for the defense wished uj into the circumstances at the time, F rester was seen with the knife ,J hand, and to this the prosecution jected, claiming that it wat extendjj the latitude of crost examination too!! The conrt permitted them to cross amine to some extent, and themattcri Gumm striking Forrester and other J cu instances were gone into. Ob jeutiJ to the line of cross examination continuously made, and shortly after J noon hour the court concluded thtrtD of cross examination had been itretcW far enough, aod refused to permit cross examination to go further in 'J lines indicated. The legal argumeirf which took place this morning J made very forcibly and were witcJ with close attention by the entire top room. All the attorneys took a band j different times, and from the vehement with which the arguments were nude,) could be teen that the discussion of tii point involved had an important W ing on the case. I At 12:25 the court adjourned ocj 1:45 when vtho same large crowd wirf present. Mr. Clarno was re-called stayed on the stand until 3 o' shdj H asks, He testified regarding the kind anne mat rorrester naa, ana was uttl by tbe prosecution if be bad not aJ different statements at the corotxt inquest. . Up to the time of going to press t entire day bad boen taken up aln entirely with legal arguments. Following Clarno, Dr. Wiley, of Ann lope, was called to tbe stand and is tc tifying regarding the nature of U wound. A GRIST OF BILLS. Work of the Legislature About KndJ Will Adjourn Tonight.
