(Special) At ilote range "Bill" Flynn, the Roose tut boss, resemblea Abe Eaton of Un ite just a trifle. He talks with an ac eent something like the anion man and haa a decisive manner. When flynn urge bis follower to do any thing It la like a boy driving a buncb f calves wltb sharp prod pole, flynn Is not a leader be la a driver, tat he drives In such a way that all his companions not only like It but mey point with pride to "Bill" Flynn'a way of doln gtblngs. "Bill" Barnes ia different. He la tore of a pussy .footer. He keeps his lawa well cushioned and "takes wunces" on the other fellow, as the Soys say In the game of marbles. Both "Bills" are powerful In their respective ways at the preaent mo Dent. Neither of them would last aa long aa the snowball In Pendleton on S hot day If they tried their tactics in Oregon for Oregon has outgrown 11 such bosses. Ormsby McHarg la another promt aent figure around the Congress hotel. Really, McHarg la not nearly as bad as he tried to be In Oregon when he came out from Washington trying to. Induce the legislature to repudiate Statement No. 1. To say the leas:, Ormsby has relented and now aaeau by, instead of swearing at, the Oregon system. When he met the writer he began at once to confess hla Oregon ain and affirm he would never do it again. Governor Johnson, of California, la one of the big men of the coast. He awoke Callfornians to the fact that the Southern Pacific railroad was grabbing more of this world's goods than It earned, and now ,the people i bless him. He hates the national cotn- mlttee now worse than he does the : Southern Pacific for the steam roller i ran ovr two of Callfornla'a delegates an act which is generally conceded to have been wrong, fer those dele gates were elected by a direct vote (the same aa Oregon delegates were ; elected.

Is a mild eyed, short, thick man wltb a gray mustache. He takes everything calmly, Joins in a good story and leaves you not until be has assured you of Taft's success in this fight. Secretary Wiles, who is confidential man to President Taft, has hair that la slight gray which wltb his youthful face, makes one look at him twice. He is crafty, always haa his ear to the Kround and is recognized as a very fair "fixer" aa fixers go uow-a days. . Then there la Victor Rosewater, chairman of the national committee, He Is a little shrimp, sworthy com plexion and always wears clothes that resemble a semi-eveulng costume. You can see hla big white shirt front half a block . Victor does not talk loud except when be ia wielding the gavel, Then he yells and pounds, declares Borah out of order and cuts all sorts of antics. Our old friend, Dave Mulvane, na tional comraltfemaa from Kansas, lis the standpattcst of the standpatters. If Dave had his way about matters the national committee would never have recognized such a name aa The odore Roosevelt no matter how many contests had been filed In bis behalf. But Dave did not have hla way. In fact, William Allen White beat Dave for committeeman tills time and his tenure of office will expire Tuesday. His Job has been a good one for Dave. It gave him a chance to spend some of his money, of which be possesses more than a plenty. One of the quaint characters here, and he la much In evidence.

'.there can be no Just reason why any reaaer of this will continue to stiff e.r the tortures of an aching back, the annoyance of urinary disorders, the dangers of serious kidney Ills when relief Is so near at band and the most positive proof given that these Ills can be cured. The following Ls convincing proof. Mrs. William McGregor, 711 Lilleth St, Pendleton, Ore., says: "Doan's Kidney Pills are by far the best kid. ney medicine I ever used. I was trou bled from childhood by kidney com plaint. My hands and feet swelled, In fact, my whole body bloated and I had a great deal of trouble from the kidney secretions. There was a dull pain In my hack and sides and often after stooping, I found it difficult to straighten. Dizzy Bpells and head aches were frequent and my nerves were all unstrung. I rested poorly and on arising in the morning was tired and devoid of amlMIon. A3 time passed, my condition became worse and It would be hard 'o fully describe the misery I endured. I spent many dollars for doctors' treatment nnd I also tried remedies of every kind but Kidney rills. This preparation re. to no avail until I procured Doan'a .tored me to good health, after visits to hot spring and treatment of every other kind had failed. I do not hesi tate to tell of my experience and I trust that my statement will be the means of helping other kidney suf ferers. For sale by all dealers. Price 60 cents.
