That introduction is going to be mud';, formally and in formally you may take your choice this year, and t,he Lowis and Clark Exposition at Portland, Oregon, will be the introducer. This exposition, which will open June 1, will be uee fui; in many ways, bat in no way will it be more useful to Americans than in making the fur-divided sec tions of this great country acquainted with each other. What does the man who lives in Augusta on the Keune beck, for instance, know about the man whose home is at Salem on the Willamette? And the Walla Walla Washingtonian what is his concep tion of the Washingtonian whose resi dence is in the DiMrict of Columbia? Between San Fraucisco and New York stretch 8000 miles of territory, aud the middle does not know the ends, nor do the ends have proper acquaint ance with each other. The exposition at Portland will bring together both ends and the mid dle and make them mutually ac quainted. The East ought to know more about the West than the West knows about the East, for Easterners travel in the West more than Western ers travel in the East: but these tour ing Easterners do not seem to diffuse their knowledge of the West when they,, return home. ,, Or. perhaps... these home-staying Easterners refuse to be lieve what their travel-wise neighbors tell them of the West, because some of those tales are tallish, so to speak, and appear unbelievable to the eye of the conservative Easterner. On the other hand, the East has gained a mighty misconception of the West by placing credence in tales en tirely too tall for the proper stature of truth and veracity. The " wild and wooly" West is the only West of which much of the East wots of. The tamed and tranquil West they refuse to believe in, and they entertain also, in some qnarterr, a notion that the West is incapable of complete civiliza tion. The Exposition at Portland will do much toward giving the East a proper attitude of appreciation toward the West. The thousands of Easterners who will take advantage of the re duced railroad rates and attend the exposition, see the We.steru country and its people, study conditions and take note of achievements, will return home with minds cleared of very much haziness that has- beclouded them by reason of the acceptance 0 fictional caricatures aa gospel fact. They will find all along the Pacific coast a civil- . ization far advanced splendid cities with skycrapers, church spires, publio libraries, universities of learning, aud telephones! It is related that a Boston woman who visited St. Louis last year was amazed to learn that the telephone was in general use throughout that city. What will be her astonishment to find in Portland not only the tele phone that talks, but the telephone that sees? At the Lewis and "Clark can, who was first among the found ers of our Republic, and the faithful exponent of Democratic principlesof government. No character in history j has better.merited the praise of suc ceeding generations. ' Jefferson was 1 great in statesmanship, he was great in executive ability and great in human i iry. In the last mentioned Attribute, 1 in his fidelity to the interests of the people whom he served, and in his concern for the wellbeing of the hum ble citizen as well as .the great, he transcended the eminent men of his own; time, those who wielded power before him and those who came after him. Cromwell, aptly styled the "Great Commoner," ably championed the cause of the enslaved peasants who in ' turn raised him to the rank , of king. But Cromwell's course was not ac tuated by a desire,for the enjoyment, i by all men.'of religions aud mental freedom, or of a participation in their J own government.

The East and the West will become acquainted at Portland. This will dear up many misconceptions on each side and will serve the stronger to ce ment the several sections of our land. THOMAS JEFFERSON. On the 13th of this month Demo cratic clubs throughout the country met in commemoration of the birth of Thomas Jefferson, the great Anieri- : military .'powe he broke the bonds ' j( I iij-w, TT..-..; 01 I'liysicai Bonuum. ivumjuiau philosophy taught mental freedom and equality of men. Cromwell and his works are known only in the histori cal past. Jeffersouian teachings form the basis of thought on governmental questions of our own time. Pitt and Disraeli aud Gladstone, em inent in statesmanship, had no concep tion of a government administered by the people. Of aristocratic birth and noble training they instinctively seg regated the people into two classes, the one comprising men of rank and affairs, the other comprising those of the humble walks of life. Those of the former class, only, were entitled to a voice in the government headed by the groat prime ministers. Thomas Jefferson did much toward breaking down the unnatural barrier of class distinction. There is a well defined tendency toward its return in our Republic. As the breach widens, patriotic statesmen will renew their appeals to the peolpe to return to a re-perusal of the teachings of the great statesman-philosopher. Jefferson was of the high-born. He was used to all of the luxuries tiiat riches afford. Yet he did not indulge the thought that he was more than the peer of the humblest citizen. In this broad conception of the rights of man he was the greatest of the world's illustrious statesmen. His career is not marked by the ABSOLUTELY FREE! A MAGNIFICENT STANDARD GRAPIIOPIIONE The Greatest Offer ever Made by any Firm in the United States THE TALKING MACHINE, a few years ago, was an awe-inspiring, soioiitifio mystery, with which the publio occasionally came iu contact in exhibition halls.

The Graphophoue is ko free from mechanical in tricacies that a moment's study suflicos to master it. When thegraphophono's matchless powers of enter tainment are considered, its value cannot bo measured in money.' '...There is no other machine or instrument that pun bo purchased at any price that will afford so vanod and delightful an entertainment, Tho graphophoue rules over tne whole realm of sound. Thus, every musical tone, simple or complicated, from the most delicate thread of sound of a single instrument to the melodious crash of a great military band, can be re-created by the graphophoue. In homes remote from the pleasures of the city, one having a graphophoue may, without trouble and at small ex pouse, listen at will to the latest music of the great operas or concert music, as rendered by the greatest . artists, or hear the voices of famous comedians in laughter provoking monologues.

D.C The Fear of Grip Makes People Nervous. There Is no remedy in the world that meets the conditions produced by the grip better than Peruna. Peruna strengthens as it renovates, soothes while it stimulates, heals as it expurgates. Peruna is not a purgative, or cathartic or sedative, or stimulant, nor a vege table or mineral poison. It reaches the source of all diseases of the mucous membranes by its action on the vaso-motor system of nerves. After-Effects of the Grip. Every person who has had la grippe during the last year should take a course of Peruna. No one need expect perfect recovery unless they do so. The grip has produced catarrhal in flammation of the whole mucous mem brane, and good health Is impossible until these are restored to a normal con dition. This Peruna will do. A great many remedies have been suggested for this condition from time to time, but Peruna is the only remedy' that has any substantial value In these oases. . , It has never failed to give satisfaction "W. H. Parsons is Ex-State Senator and Ex-Special Judge of the Supreme Court of Texas, and was also Brigadier-General in Confederate Army. In a recent letter from 925 H street, N. W., Washington, D. C, this prominent gentleman says; 'Upon the recommendation ot personal trhnds and many strong testi monials as to the efficacy ot Peruna In the treatment ot the numerous symptoms of the grippe with which I have been afflicted for four months past, I have been Induced to undergo a treatment with this justly celc brated formula. 1 feel a decided change tor the better after using it only one week. ' "It is especially good In toning up the stomach and has had a decided effect upon my appetite. I therefore feel much encouraged that 1 am on the road to complete restoration. "My numerous friends in Texas, where I have had the honor to command a brigade of her Veteran Cavalry in a four years' war, may accept this vol untary testimonial to the merits of Peruna as a sense of obligation on my part for its wonderful efficacy." W. i. rarsons. during forty years' experience and still occupies the unique position of being the leading (if not the only) specific remedy for the after-effects of la grippe. No Time Like the Present If yon are suffering from the after effects of la grippe if you have be come discouraged in your attempts to cure yourself with other treatments, take a bottle of Peruna now. A bottle of Peruna taken during the beginning of the disease is worth more than a dozen bottles after the trouble has become deep-seated. Miss Eugenie Lafortune of 110 Berri street, Montreal, Can., writes: "Peruna cured me of a severe case of la grippe when nothing else had any effect on me. Five bottles did the work and they were worth hundreds of dol lars for the comfort and health restored tome. I therefore feel that the least I can do Is to gratefully acknowledge its merits." Eugenie Lafortune. A reward of $10,000 has been deposited in the Market Exchange Bank, Colum bus, Ohio, as a guarantee that the above testimonial is genuine; thai we hold in our possession authentic letters certifying to the same.

The Democratic candidate was elected mayor of Chicago by a plural ity as great as the total vote of the city of Portland. Yet Chicago, last November, went 'Republican by a large majority. Kausas City, Leav enworth aud St. Louis have elected Democratic mayors. In fact, in the recent mayoralty contests, in nearly every instance tiie Democratic caudi ate was successful where the vote was fairly close last fall. It seems clear that conservative Democracy does not represent the sentiment of the Democrats of today and equally plain that the liberal Democracy is winning great favor with the people everywhere. Republican leaders are astounded by the result of the Chioago election and are wondering how they may stem the increasing tide. A little time may work great changes in political conditions. A great surprise may be in store for Re publican leaders in 1908. I A lazy liver makes a lazy man. . Burdock Blood Bitters is the natural, I r i : ! j , i uever luiuug reiiieuy lor a lazy liver.

The county court appointed Jabesh Wilson guardian of Clarence Wilson, and the guardian secured O. W. Nobblitt and , W. W. H. Sampson as his bondsmen, 'in the sunis'of $800. Clarence Wilson filed a complaint in the circuit court charging his guardian with embezzel ing $ ?51. 80 belonging to the estate. When the estate was settled in the county court, Jabesh Wilson was ad judged to owe the estate (311.80, and j no part of this has been paid.

The mill will have a ce ment foundation and the superstruc ture will be of iron and steel, instead of wood, as has heretofore been util ized.

Every county with resources as va ried and extensive as those of Clacka amas should enjoy an annual county fair. The benefits to be derived there from are well worth the care and hard work involved in the undertaking. Publio spirited citizens would have to bear the burden and the enterprise would not bel profitable from a finan cial standpoint. An exhibit of the county's products would make it possible for farmers and stockraisers of one locality to compare results with those of other localities. There would be a spirited rivalry in bringing in premium win ning exhibits. Growing of the best products the county is capable of Oregon City People Are Pleased Learn How It Is Done.

He is a painter by trade and there is no doubt 1 but the turpentine has had more or less effect on his kidneys, as I believe most painters are more or less afflicted with kidney troubles. Last fall he had an acute attack and when Doan's Kidney Pills were brought , to our notice and I got him a box, they so regulated his kidneys that relief came in a remarkably short time.
