WHEN EAST MEETS WEST.
The East needs an introduction to
the Middle Vnst. Both the East and
the Middle West need an introduction
to the Far West. 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. His impelling
force whs religions fanaticism. By
exposition a device whereby one talk

the other end of the line will be ex
hibited in practical operation for the
first time in public and strange to
state it is the invention of a Port
land mail.
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-

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

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. To-day, in its best form, the
GRAP1IOPHONE is a familiar objoot in thousands
of homes. Unquestionably tho Graphophoue is the
richest contribution science has made to the en
tcrtaiuniont 'and instruction of the world iu late
years. 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. You can hear the
finest music from the greatest' orchestras and bands
of the world whose volume of melody instantly de
lights all hearers.
Here is Our Proposition Read it Over Careiully
Our plan for the presentation of these maguiflceut
hoiuo.eutercaintu'B is simple. Here is the plan: With
a purchase of $15.00 or with sales slips amounting to
fui.uO in trade, we will present one or these grapiio
phoncs to you absolutely free with the understand
ing that you purchase live rooords at the Btart at 6O0
each, and that you purchase twenty records in ten
weeks, that is two records eaeli . week. These rec
ords, costing von 60 cents each, are THE GEN
UINE STANDARD Gil APHOPUONK SEVEN
INCH DISC RECORD THAT RETAIL THE
WOULD OVER AT 60 cents. We not only sell you
these records at tho regular standard price that you
would have to pay for them the world over, but be
sides we give you one of these magnificent $15.00
genuine Standard graphoplioiies for your entertain
ment absolutely free. What is a collection of 25
records? Not many to be sure. Some homes have
collections numbering aa high as one hundred and
fifty, aud evon up to two hundred and fifty different
records, giving quite a range of all classes of enter
tainment witkout repeating. It will surprhe you
how quickly you will have purchased the neoessary
twenty records, and then the maehiue is yours. Un
til you have purchased the necessary twenty records,
the title of the machine is ours, but practically it is
yours because we deliver the maehiue to your home
after you return your sales slips aud purchase the iirst
Ave records, and you have the use of the machine
all the time while you are purchasing the remain
ing twenty records, two eaoh week. .ThiB is bo easy
and simple that yon never notice, the "expenditure, in
faot, you will find it a source of pleasure to add
new aud up-to-date collections to your list new
ooinio songs, new oomio opera musio, new band
music, new jokes, new monologues, new pieces of all
sorts that ' will give you not ouly pleasure to hear,
but pleasuro to buy, Never has anything been pre
sented to the publio which positively makes home
entertainment so delightful. No more dull aud un
interesting evenings. A graphophoue takes away the
dullness, and excites the admiration of all its hearers.
Never, in the history, of our storo, have we ever
offered anything so worthy of your consideration as
our graphophoue plan, which instantly turns dull,
uneventful aud uuiuterostitig evenings at home into
delightful entertainments. No trouble at all to op
erate the graphophone, a ten year old child cau run
it as well as a grown person. Tho operation consists
of winding up the machine, placing tho record on
the torn table, insert the needle in the sound box,
aud starting it. You can learn to operate it iu two
minutes. Entertain your family, entertain yoursolf
and entertain your friends. Yon never can tire of
this delightful machine because it produces the finest
of music as rich and clear as the original. No
scratching noise, it runs as smooth us oil, and sounds
as clear as a ' belL Concentrate your trade at our
store and start saving your sales slips at once, and
as soon as you have made H15.00 worth of purchases,
aud pay for five original records at 50 cents each, the
maehiue will lie delivered to your home ABSO
LUTELY FREE. The machine is, of course, of no
use to you unless you have records, therefore you
purohase five records at the beginning, and the re
maiuder, two every week for ten weeks. Remember
yon have nearly three months in which to secure tiie
other twenty records. We extend our most cordial
iuvitation to all to come to our store and see the ma
chine in actual operation aud hear the many up-to-date,

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. Every one ot our tes

THE MAYORALTY ELECTIONS.
In view of the recent mayoralty
contests in the large cities, things
look encomaging for the Democratic
party. 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.

Emma J. Wilson died intestate in
this county in 1893, leaving as her
' sole heir Clarence M. Wilson. 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

will be one of the best in the whole
country, and its construction will

THE COUNTY FAIR.
Every county with resources as va

from are well worth the care and hard

Publio spirited citizens would have to
