with honor and honesty?
It has been sa d that the h'gh walks of
life are filled to overflowing with men and
women. This is not true. There are
created constantly demands for good cit
izens. Upon the public school the burden
of creating these citizens rests.
"The highest type of American citizen
ship is exemplified in our great president
Theodore Roosevel'. He is the greatest
I ving American a'id i rank him next to
Lincoln as being the greatest president
this country evor had. His great popu
larity is largely due to his independence
and action. While Mr. Roosevelt and I
do not agree in politcal lines on all' sub
jects my admiration for him is the great
est '
"There is Joseph W. Folk of Missouri,
although elected by the great political
machine of his state, has thrown aside
the conventionalities of political life and
h&s made a campaign to land the violat
ors of the laws of tie land, behind the
bars. Then there is Governor La Folette
of Wisconsin who has also thrown aside
the ties and placed hijhself in a position
where he can do the most good. These
are the highest type of citizenship and to
these ends the young people of this nation
should aspire."
Immediately following his address to
the school the Governor went tothecourt
house to begin the morning session of the
aw case under consideration.
In speaking of the land frauds perpe
trated by the MciCiniey-Puter gang (he
Governcf said: ' v i .
' rThe punishment of the offenders rests
entirely m the hands of those who" were
swindled. The state is offering all assist
ance possible in its power to bring these
people to justice. These buyers are ar
riving from the east and are preparing
to take action in the matter. It is safe to
say that the intending purchaser of
land hereafter will exercise more caut
ion ani as a result lis state will not be
blotted with frauds of a like character in
the future. Z ' ; i'
About Oregon's new senntor he said:'
"Before appointing a successor to the
late Senator Mitchell I inquired into the
policy of John M. Gearen. I found 'that
he was loyal, though not what would be
classed an active Democrat politician,
and ascertained that he was as heatly in
accord with President Roosevelt on the
regulation question as I am myself. I
can safely say that we may expect splen
did treatment from the hands of the new
senator as I am sure hewill devote every
effort to the betterment of Oregon." ,

LARGE PERCENTAGE Cf CASES
Has it ever occurred to you that the
shape and size of the chest cavity, in
which the heart and lunjs perform their
labors, depends chiefly upon the position
of the ribs? Ano that depression of the
ribs will decrsase the space in which these
all-important organs work, besides ser
iously crowding their nerve connections.
This condition of rib displacement is one
of those most frequently found by the
Ostecpath In examining patients'afflicted
with heart trouble: and. the fact that he
can, by simple mechanical means, restore
the ribs to their proper places largely ac
counts for his success in dealing with
cases of this kind. The number of those
who believe themselves suffering from or
ganic heart trouble, whereas this great
pumping center of the body is really only
protesting because its quarters are too
contracted, is very great Indeed; and it is
a very common thing for every sympton
of , Supposed heart trouble to disappear
entirely after Osteopathic treatment has
restored th chest cavity to its normal
shape and given Nature room in which to
work. ; v
OTHER LESIONS WHICH ARE fOUIID
Rib misadjustments are not the only
ones, however, which "are located and
corrected by th 0 taopatj) d hjs efforts
td relieve th heart -: Displacement- m
th collar bone, or of certain of the spinal
vertebrae, cause heart trouble also by in
terfering with th nerve connections of
th organ or by 'disturbing th action of
vaso-motor nerves, which control blood
circulation. Th Osteopath' knowledge
relative to these points I not theoretical,
its accuracy having been demonstrated in
cpuntles cases; and his training and
practice enable him to detect at once any
abnormal adjustments which are adverse
ly affecting th complicated nervous con
nections of th heart So that his success
in treating diseases of this organ, and of
the whole circulatory system-simply by
removing unnatural pressure from nerves,
vessels, and -the heart itself-ts not diffi
cult to account for. W - ' . ' "
: AS TO CHANCES Of CURE'
The number of different diseases of the
heart is too large, th variety of special
conditions too great, to permit of detailed
discussion here; and no opinion of value
can be rendered as to the prospect of
cure in a given case except by th Oste
opath after he ha mad a cartful exam
ination of the anatomical condition of the
individual. It may be stated in a general
way, however, that, although numerous
of heart trouble are admittedly incurable
and nothing more than relief and the pro
longation of life can be promised by the
best of Osteopaths, there 1 another large
variety of cases in which cure is practical
ly assured; and that very often what
hive seemed to be incurable heart afflic
tions turn out under Osteopathic diagnosis
and treatment to be nothing of th sort. '
It Is decidedly worth While for any on
suffering from any irregularity of the
heart to consult an Osteopath; for th
possibilities of good resulting ar great,
and the probabilities distinctly better than
under any other form of treatment The
Right Way. - ' - .; -..
