miL" FLYJiH AND "BILL" BAHSES
Chicago, June 15. (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.
Governor Johnson gets very angry.
He Is about the size of Mac Rlchey
and when he gets real mad he awears
loud and sharp.

"PICTURES OF QUALITY"
Congressman McKInley, the Taft
leader. 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. Is an.
other old Kansas friend Governor
Walter Roacoe Stubbs. Ha doesn't
care much for hla first names so ev
erybody cans him "Stubbs." He de
nied the charge of having not cut
his balr since the writer loft Kansas
a number of years ago, but he fulled
to show proof.

the dangers of serious kidney Ills

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
