Wright's Dental Office, Seventh and Washington Streets. You can't afford to miss this opportunity. Have your work done by skillful specialists and at about one-half the price ycu have been paying, and have your work done absolutely without pain. If you have crown and bridge work to be done you positively cannct afford to trust it to some inex perienced dentist in a small town. Come to the city and have your work done by an expert, who gives his entire time and attent'on to this most important branch in the dental profession. Remember, when a dentist is working on your teeth he is either doing you good or doing you harm, and you cannot afford to take any chances. As ref erence, I respectfully refer you to the United States National Bank, which is one of the strongest banking institutions on the Pacific Coast, as to whether I am responsible for con tracts I make.

He was a poor boy who workea nara an iunuum wuur m support a widowed mother, and, in spite of obstaoles, by sheer foroe of intellect, educated himself, until he has beoome, while yet, a very yountt man, one of the keenest editorial writers in the Pacific Northwest. If anyone doubts this, let them read the flies of the Salem "Independent" of utgo v vw -ww . x--- eleven or twelve years ago. Lieu land frauds and grafts of all kinds were exposed by his ioonclastio pen as they never had been before nor since, al though events have transpired to prove 4 the trutn oi nis sramiiioiiu. uu m studying MoMahan's career one is re minded of Mark Twain's story, "Travelling With a Kerormer, wherein is outlined the adventures of - rhn kinb-od nirainNt each and a luai. tti.v o- evry injustioe and endeavored to cor- reot all tne evus oi uio ddi yioe in particular, and the world in general, and as a consequence , while he oiten won nis poxut, o n inoonveniencea personally wei-auy, a ; ia nnf.

JNo, it aoes not py w m a in former, but MoMahan is a natural fighter and does not stop to weigh the cost bfore breaking a lanoe. As to applying to the proper "Btate offl cers," as you suggest, his experience during the Pennoyer regimu wiivi offlcers was not suoh as to inspire him(or anyone else)with confidence in that method of procedure Once more to refer to "motive," let us take a case now prominently before the publio-that of Tom Lawson and his article in "Everybody's Maga ii rm, Rnntrnf Allnr-Rosers-Stan- tnin.matnii Onnner crowd. through their newspapers and hireling leoturers, charge uawuuu ... -"kinker."
