FRIDAY, AUGUST 26, 1910 ANNOUNCEMENT I wish to announce to llic rcptib licau voters of Mtiltnomnli county that I ntu a cntultdnte for re-election to the leclslnttirc from this district, subject to the choice of the voters at the primary election to be held September 24, 1910. I am a firm believer In "the direct primary law, statement No. t and let the people rule." K. C. COUCH. In looking over the news of the day one is impressed with the num ber of states which will wrestle with the liquor question at ap proaching elections. Washington is struggling with the county unit plan; Idaho witli the movement to spread prohibition over its entire face, and Oregon must choose this fall one of two measures, namely: Initiative Hill No. 338, giving to every incorporated town and city in the state exclusive power to reg ulate, suppress or prohibit the sale of intoxicants, or stotc-witlc pro hibition, so-called. I A new assay on a new lead of the Mohawk Mining Co. in Southern Oregon, in which a number of St. Johns people arc interested, shows a value of $xB.6i In gold, silver and copper. The first' lead assayed .$64.00 in zinc. o Forest fires have been doing in estimable damage to Oregon forests the past week or two. St. Johns was hazy with smoke and Hying cinders Tuesday which wcie blown across the Columbia from near Vancouver. A small fire in the brush on Thompson street, called out the fire department yesterday morning. The party sending in the alarm be came unduly alarmed and it is said the fire could have been put out with a little effort on the part of a determined individual. What is Statement One? It is a voluntary offer by the legislative candidate to let the people choose United States senator. It is a pub lie declaration before electtott by the candidate that if the people so desire they may name the senator rather than have the legislature do St. It is a public pledge in which the candidate agrees that if elected he will in the legislature vote for that man for United States senator who shall, in an election before the people, have received the highest number of votes. Ibis public pledge, to let the people Instead of the legislature clioosc tlie senator, is Statement One, and all there is of Statement One. It is a mere vehicle by which tnc people arc uivcti a perfect system of direct selection of senator. In denounc iug it the legislative candidates named by the corporations give notice that they propose to do their own choosing ol senator, aim that the people will not be allowed a voice in it, DUILDINQ PERMIT8.

It really seems strange that so mapy people suffer year In and year out with eczema, when it Is now no longer a se. cret that oil ol wintergreen mixed with thymol, glycerine, etc., makes a wash that is bound to cure. Old, obstinate cases, it is true, can not be cured in a few days, but there is absolutely no sufferer from eczema who ever used this simple wash and did not find Immediately that won derfully soothing, calm, cool sensation that comes when the itch is taken away. Instantly upon applying a few drops of the wash the remedy takes effect, the itch is allayed, There is no need of experiment the patient knows at OBce. Instead of trying to compound the oil of wintergreen, thymol, glycerine. eic., in tne right proportions ourselves we are using a prescription which is universally found the most effective. It is known as the D. D. D. Prescrip tion, or Oil of Wintergreen Compound. It is made by the D. D. D. Co. of CM. cago, and our Jong experience with this remedy has given us ereat eonfi. dence in its merits. Subscribe aappr. for tlie Review and tw
