The Portland Oregonlan says that no good town la dry and that no dry town la a good town. This Is high sounding fallacy. It Is a pretty play on words, but It dues not bear inves tigation. Recently the entire state of North Carolina went dry and every big town In the state except Wllmlrgtun and Durham, two of he 10 big cl :es In the state, voted dry within their own precincts. Wilmington bos a popula tion of 20,0(10 and Durham of about 15.000. Every other big town In tho state, Including Charlotte, 20,000 popula tion; Ashertlle, 18,000; Greenboro, 1S.000; s.lelgh, 16.000; Newhern, 13. 000. voted dry and 78 out of the 8 counties In the state were carried completely, town and all. by the pro hibitionists. Are none of these North Carolina towns good towns? Are all these peo ple deluded In voting towns of from lt.OOO to 20,000 population dry? As towns go In the south, North Carolina has some excellent represen tatives of southern towns. They are not only bustling manufacturing and lumbering cities, but they are home nd school centers of the first class. , And the statistical reports show that they are alt growing. They have adopt ed prohibition from an economfi standpoint and they will make a sue cess of It, as will every other city In ; the t'nlt-d States which consch ntlous-J ly tilts to got alons without the sa Iwm.--r-t mueuin ia K'l egonmn. j as I r &1 IIQOOl Great minds often ulu;t sl-nliari tactics but they do not ntvwiys cat at j (Vvn ,.(m,.r ,.(at K..0- the same table.

Another pathetic tragedy of the frontier is reported from Lewlston, In the death of a recluse rancher at the age of 0 years, in the loneliness of his secluded cabin. Scattered here and there through the mountains and forests, these her mit characters, flotsam . of pioneer conditions, are found all over this western land. We find them in the hills around every lake, and by many a mountnln meadow, living their Quiet and uneventful lives apart from fam ily and kindred. When the winter snows lie deep around their little cabins, and the long night falls on the desolate wilderness, what thoughts, what memories, must haunt these lonely men, sitting there in solitude and darkness. As the years go by they grow more timid and shrinking, more abashed and confused In their occasional con tact Kith civilization and society. Thus their lonely lives wear away until some morning the accustomed our) of smoke Is lacking . above the cabin roof, and the faithful dog stands guard as only mourner over the place of death. Spokesman-Review. 10HN BULL AXGRV. Displeased With Oration Planned fo x Uncle Sam's Fleet. London, July. 17. Reports received here regarding the magnificent prep arations that are being made In Aus tralian and New Zealand porta for the entertainment of the American fleet are provoking a great deal of com ment The expenditure of such ' vast sums by the colonial cities In enter taining the fleet of a foreign power is condemned by the London papers. An undercurrent of jealousy of the t'nlted States runs through many of these editorial articles, and the cruise of the Yankee vessels Is severely criti cised by some naval authorities. On the continent, however, and es pecially in Germany the political as pects of the cruise are considered In a more favorable light. The Marine Rundschau, which Is the subsidized organ of the German Imperial murine department, consid ers that the "concentration of the American fleet In the Pacific" marks the beginning of the now epoch In the worliVs history which was fore shadowed by Count Vorck von War tenburg. Count Waldersee's chief of staff In 1S00, when he expressed the opinion that the trend of events tay In the direction of a union on the part of the Continental and Atlnntlc pow ers against the "Pacific hemisphere." It Is added that "America's political wishes will only' be recognised if they are backed by the guns of her fleet, but the scope of her desires will be bounded by the navy's ratlins of ac tion." The conservative Kreu Zeltung In dorses these observations with the re mark that the American navy must not only be ready to strike, but "ready to strike where strategy dumands." General von Zeuclln then proceeds to i consider the lines of communication and the harbor accommodation on the west const of Ann i lea and In the Pa- clflr, which he pronounces to be In- I n 'le.giiatt and Irt-'.-itre f.ir a fleet Me. slcnctl for offcmlw purposes."

DISSAIISFACTION WITH HODS OF SCORING AND TUG-OF-WAR London, July 17. Protest against the method of scoring the Olympic games resulted today In the announce ment that no championship award will be made this year. ' Realizing it will be a hopeless attempt to get the ;T.i nm to aaree upon any one system of scoring. Lord Desbor ough, chairman of the London Olym pic association, adopted this course as the only solution of the difficulty. In the 100-meter back-stroke swim ming race today, Rleberceln of Ger many, won the first heat of the semi final In one minute 25 1-i seconds; heat two went to Haresmape of Eng land, the victor making the distance In one minute, 25 1-6 seconds.

Is it not possible, end a'tojroaher prob able that elements iiecej&;;ry for the body-health are contained in the med icinal roots found in the earth, digested in the plant laboratory of Suture and made ready for man or animal ? There ia a growing belief among scien tists that the vegetable kingdom fur ntEhes cs with the necessary elements for blood making iind to keen that deli cate balance of health that the human aninml is so apt to disturb by wrong methods of living. Thus we know that we should get the phosphates from the wheat in our bread or some cereal foods, and iron from certain vegetables, ueu Me tteiM.ii l...jp If there ia ill-health then oar best method for recovering oar standard balance of health is to go to Katnre's Laboratory the plant life which will furnish the remedy. Buried deep in oar forests is the plant known si Golden Seal (Hvdrastis) the root of which Edwin M. hale, M. D., Professor of Materia Medics at Hahne mann Medical College, Chicago, states "In relation to its general effects on the system, there is no medicine in nse about which there is racb general un animity of opinion. It is universally regarded as the tonic useful in all de bilitated states." Dr. Hale continues: "Prof. John M. Bcndder says, ' It stim olates the digestive processes, and in creases the assimilation of food. By these means the blood is enriched, and this blood feeds the mopculnr rvstem.' 1 mention the muscular system because I believe it first feels the increased power imparted by the stimulation of increased nutrition. The consequent improvement on the nervous and glandular systems are natural results.'" Stillingia or Queen's root is another root wluch has lonii been in repute as an alterative ( blood pnritier) and Prof. John King, M. D., says of it: "An alterative unsurpassed by few if any other of the known alteratives; moat successful in skin end fcrr.mlons affec tions. Bene-:icial in bronchial affections permanently cures bronchitis relieves irritation an important coujih remedy coughs of years1 standing being cured. Aids in blood-making and nutrition, and may be taken without harm foi lon periods." Nearly forty years ago. I. R. V. Pierce of Buffalo, X. ., combined ar extract of the two above roots, trpethei with that of 8tne root, Black ('herrv bark, Bloodroot, Mandrake and Give erinw into a prescription which lie mil np in a readv-to-use form, nnd called Dr. Tierce's Golden Medical recovery. It was most sitcceFftil in correcting and caring such ailments as were due to steimach and liver derangements, iollowed by impure blood. t In cases of weak stomach, indiges tion, dyspepsia, ulceration of stomach or bowels, torpid liver, or biliousness, the "Golden Medical Discovery" be never been excelled as a tonic and in vigorator which pnts the afiected or gans "in tune" and enables them to perform their proper funclions. This alterative and tonic is indicnted when you have symptoms of headache backache, in fact "ache all over." When yonr appetite is gone, tongue furred, bad triMe in month, foul breath, when you feel weak, tired, blue and discouraged, then is the time to take this tiatjral u-sterative of Dr. Pierce.
