KIDDLE'S CANDIDACY.' '
. (Having received the nomination for
joint senator from the two counties of
Union nnd Wallowa. Mr. Kiddle will
most likely' be elected, and will re

ment No, 1 has eliminated politics
from this office The candidate re
ceiving the highest number of votes
for I'nlted States senator will receive
the vote of whomsoever Ib elected
senator or representative. . For that
reason, there is nothing of a political

to elect,' as we believe. He is a-safe,
conservative, and careful business

each and every measure. This is said
without disrespect to Mr. Kiddle's
befon the legislature. NO' doubt,
many buslnes measures will come up
before the state senate, nnd we know
of no one to whom such matters can
be more safely trusted than to E. E.

English is said to be the hardest lan

It a brond statement, which might be
hard to prove, but certainly it it not
the easiest lu the world. A professor
in an eastern college relates a French
friend's trials with our verb "break.'
He wrltet:

A THEORY OF DREAMS.
Slumber Dramas Reflect Symbolically j
flu. Past Pxe.pi.ncB. '
Tne dream as it unrolls itself before
the sleeper's coiisi-iv.uxiiess is an ulle
goricnl or yui!xli(nl expresxltui: of the
Ideas whl:-h lelona to bis tlioulit'
world, writes iliu ICev. Suuiuel Mv
Comb, D.. D., lu tbe Century. Why
should dreams take on an allegorical
dress?- Why are they not, as a rule, a
literal trm.sferente of events and ex
perience from a waking state to a
sleeping state? ' -
Tbe .answer is because tbe normal
waking consciousness which acts as a
kind of, check upon painful or disn-g.-eeable
thoughts uud feelings relaxes
.'ts activities during sleep and allows
tot.-v thoughts and feelings to pass int
consciousness, only, however, wheu
their motie have been disguised un
der a hidden of symbolism. ?
. If it were not no. If dreams literally
reflected the conaicts ur.d yenrnlnge of
the workaday world, they rould set up
such emotional . excitement as would
arouse tbe waking consciousness and
so uiake nn end of sleep; hence the
valuable reflection is forced upon us
thut dreams fulfill the Important func
tion of preserving sleep. They are
thus seen to bear vitally upon our
health and happiness..
Another Interesting question which
modern Investigation bits beeu able to
answer Is. Out of what materials are
dreams constructed? Nothing can come
Into our dreams tbut hue not entered
Into our past experiences. The thoughts
of the mental -state Immediately pre
ceding sleep are bard to recover after
ward, btlt when tbey are recovered
they are ' found to iierslst tor 'our
dreams. But we "may go further than
this. There it nothing incredible lu the
upposlttorT that written, as it were,
witb invisible ink on our nervout sys
tems are characters inherited from our
