The mining men of Orogon have combined to r peal the coiporatlon tax bill, known at the Eddy bill, and the portago railroad bill, by invoking the referendum power of the people under the recent consti tutional amendment enacted by the'puplo of tho state.

Their pur port and scope are fully explained in this issue of tho Democrat. The mining intercut of the state have been outrageounly taxed and the money turned over to support an outrageous portage railway. Fast ern capital will nicer clear of Ore gon for investment under the new corporation tax law, the' poor man is debarred from prospecting and developing his mineral land, the home corporation ia forced to pay triple taxes on mt-re pron-cta, and the money thua mined ia to be used in building a fifth wheel to a wagon.

Company "Wlieo I hdn attack of tl grip la t winter (the second one) I actually cured myself with one bottle ol Cham be laius Cough Kemedy," says Frank W, Ferry, Editor o! the Interpriie, Shoitsville, N. Y. "This Is the honest truth. 1 at times kept fiom coughing myself to pieces by taking a teaspoon ful of this temedy, and when the coughing spell would come on at ni(ht I would tiiLe a dose and it seem ed that in the briefest interval the cough would pass off and I would go to sleep perfectly free from cough and its accompanying pains. To say tliat the remedy acted as a most agreeable surprise is putting it very mildly. I had no idea that it would or could knock out the grip, simply tweause I had never tried it for auch a pur pose, hut it did, and it seemed with the second attack of coughing the remedy cau ed it to not only be ol leas duration, but the pain were far leas Revere, and I had not used the con- tents of one bottle before Mr. Grip had bid me adieu. "For aalc by A 'am On i. Winnek Co. Send Lieutenant Algernon Ecn Sartoris' resignation has been ac cepted by President Roosevelt. Young Sartoris, the grandson of General Grant, wag appointed to the Army in May, la02, and is now in the Philippines with his regiment, tho Tenth Infantry. When the resignation was recieved the President interposed objection to his leaving the Army, desiring he should remain in the service, where a bright future was before him. Mrs. Sartoris, who is ill in Washington and wants her boy with her, prevailed upon the Presi dent to accept the resignation, de clining to consent to his furlough or assignment to duty in Wash ington. Pullman Ordinary SUepirt. The tourist travel between the east anal the Pacific coast has reached enormous proportion! in the laat few years, aud calla tor a ipecial chus of equipment. To meet this demand the Pullman Co. hat iuued from ila "shops what it technically calla the "Pullman Ordinary Sleeper." These cars appear similar to the regular aleeper, being built on the aame plan, but not furnished with the aame elegance They are equipped with mail treses, blanked, aheeta, pillowa, pillow-caaea, towels, oomba, brushes, etc, requiring nothiiiKof the kind to be furnished by the passenger. Each car haa a stdve for making coffee and tee. and doing "light housekeeping," and each section can be fitted with an- adjustable table. A uni formed porter accompanies each car, hia business beioR to make up berths, keep the car clean, and look after the comforts and wauta of the passenger. In each of the trains which are dispatched daily from Portland by the O. R. 4 K Co. is to be found one of these "Pullman Or dinary Sleepers." The car ia attached to the ''Chicano-Purtlsnd Special, which goea hrough to Chicago without change, and the one in the "Atlantic Ex press" tuna to Kansas City without change. Passengers in this car for Chi cago change to a aimilar car at granger. Much of the first class travel is being carried in these care, the rates being lower, and the aervice being nearly equal to that in the'palace sleepers.
