She was one of the piouner mothers of Oregon. This week there is a reunion in Portland of the gray-haired mon and women who have known the trials and hardships of frontier life and who have seen a wil derness grow into a garden spot of fields and orchards. There will be a roll-call but to some of the names there will be no reaponso. When the name of Susan D. Mo I drum is called there will be silence. Memories of a t true life woll and nobly lived will ccme over those who knew hor. Tears will dim the eyes ot those good old people when they are reminded that their comrado lias finished the race. Almost four Bcoro years and ten of joy and sorrow, of hope and disap pointment, of much of the pleasure of life iilcI, of counio, of some of its bit tornoss. In it all thore was no dis contentment. Mrs. Meldrnra's heart was yong even in tier great age, her memory was fresh and she did not lose interst in tlio happiness and she success of those around her until had peacefully closed her eyes the last sloop. Such spirits are blessings of earth, and though for the we know it is the doing of a will above ours we can not but, mourn to lose thorn. In the suprome order we acquiesce. We know that time will mar the block of granite will mark tee resting plaoe of this noble woman, bat passing years will notefface from the momory of the Oregon pioneers and their posterity the life of a faith ful pioneer mother. CHAMPION OP THE PEOPLE. The Nation has had a t-iste of a chief executive who has refused to proteot the millionaire robbers of the poople,-who has brought to book hun dreds of big land thieves, who has made tremble the steel kings and the oil kings and the raihoad kings, who nas shook up the great meat packers of the Middle WeBt as they have ne ver been shaken before. Theodore Roose velt was the man of the hour. To what extent wholesale robbery by the great capitalistic institutions, aided and abetod by high government offi cials may have gone, but for the strong arm of the Presidont, no man may say. Had it not beou for this man thoro is every probability that those United States would have been embroiled, in u seething mass of cor ruption that would have caused the whole world to stand aghast in amaze ment and disgast. The people have had a taste of hon esty Mid learlossnesB at the head of (he Nation. Who knows but that they may domaud another Rooseveit. To the affable, pliant Fairbanks they may say no. T3 the tricky "good mixer' ' and cunning politician, Joe Cannon, they may say no.;. To that coterie of statesmen for revenue only and lo those who would proclaim .money King oftho Universe, the people may nay no. But how about that man ot the Middle Went who lias endured for years the bitter and groundless abuse of a subsidized pross and against DO YOU GET UP WITH A IAME BACK?

Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is not rec ommended for everything but if you have kidnev, liver or Madder tremble it will be found' just the remedy you need. It has leeti tested in so many ways, in hospital work and in private practice, and has proved so successful in every case that a special arrangement has been made by which all readers of this paper, who have not already tried it, may have a sample bottle sent tree oy niuu, a.su .v niK more about Swamp-Root, and how to fiudoutif youhave kidney or bladder trou Me When writing mention reading this generous offer iu this paper and send your address to Dr. Kilmer -fKrr, & Co., Binghamtou, ffE!jm?i;n5i3 M.

Will the people call for a second The odore Roosevelt in the person of Wil liam Jennings Bryan? JNo man 01 the JNatiou nas had a greator personal folio wibg than Mr. Brjan. His name, enshrined in the hearts of the people, despite the tre mendous offort that has been made to blot it out is still the cherished name of a hero. He still lives as the cham pion of the rights of the common peo ple. These people, not the American aristocracy, but the great American people may yet honor him whose thoughts and deeds and whese whole life has been in accord with their effort and tney may et call him to the head of the Nation. CHAUTAUQUA. Two weeks of pleasure, recreation aud intsruction. This is the program at Gladstone Park from July JO to July 24. Many residents of Clacka mas county do not realize what a treat is brought almost to their doors by this institution It is worth the whiln of all to get acquainted with the bouotfis an1 enjoyment that is to bo derived from a two weeks' encamp ment on tlw Chautauqua groutids. It cultivates, invigorates jind refreshens every side of you. Don't miss it. NO CLASSES, NO ARISTOCRACY IN AMJ5RICA. It is one of the frailties of human natnre to laud and honcr.sons and daughters of eminent men because .of the tilings their father's have done. A century ago man's estate was de pendent on heredity ; he was born to high or low degree and the (condition of hia birth, regardless of effort, en terprise or great achievement, was his ooudition throughout life. This notion, fundamentally wrong, has not been entirely eradicated from the minds of the people. But Jreal Americanism has a different standard. Men are measured by what they have achieved. Mrs. Longworth, daughter of Presi dent Roosevelt, in Europe is received and feasted by kings. She is the daughter of a great president that is all. Her course will have no benefl oial effect on the American people. It will only reinfore the common be lief that an American aristocrao.v is growing np in the United States. This is the only oountry that has ever enjoyed entire freedom of oppor tunity. Let ns hope that conditions may always remain such that a rail splitter or a shoemaker may aspire to the presidency. Let ns hope that in the United States pubilo honors and high places shall never be dopendent on the chances of birth. JURY COULD NOT AGREE. Suit of Mrs. Batdorff for $5000 Damages Against the City. The suit of Mrs. Clara Batdorff against the city for $6000 was on trial in the circuit court last week. Mrs. Batdorff sued for damages, for injuries alleged to have been sus tained by faliirg on a dofective side walk. Councilman William Andresen, W. K. Logos, E. P. Rands, and Jo seph Harrington were granted a non suit as they did not assume office un til last January, and were not in any way responsible for the oondition of the walk. The jurors were Albert Orossan, Paul Dunn, Qeorge Randall, O. P. Sharp, George Brookert, R. S. McLaughlin, Joseph Lahan, W. H. Mattoon, Hans Paulsen, J. K. Ely. Thomas Blanchard and William Bard.

ANY PEOPLE , HAVE Backache, a Warning Symptom of Kidney Trouble. Pe-ru-na Is Invaluable Cases. Prominent Persons "Who Have Been Cured. Mr. J. Blyler, 1505 Ohio street, Des Moines, la., writes: "I wish to state my appreciation of your excellent remedy. "1 have always enjoyed excellent health, except frequent and painful attacks of bladder trouble, which doctors failed to relieve or cure. "Upon recommendation I used utter satisfaction, not having had for four or five years. "J. Blyler. Dangerous Kidney Diseases Cured. WEEN the kidneys become affectoi' by catarrh, either from colds, over work, or an extension of catarrh from ome other organ, they fall to perform their normal functions. It Is the work of the kidneys (j ex crete from the blood many of the poisons Which accumulate in the body. If the kidneys fall In their work, the poisons accumulate to such an extent as to cause convulsions, which often prove fatal. Peruna, by relieving the kidneys of their congested and catarrhal condi tions, leaves them free to act in a normal manner. It also strengthens the action of the heart, equalizing the circulation of the blood in all parts of the system. HEDGES 501 TO THE GOOD Wins Easy Victory Over State Senator Brownell. BIG VOTE FOR GOVERNOR Democrats and Thinking Men Entirely Satisfied Over Result of Recent Election. i Close scrutiny of the official vote in the recent election dis closes many surprises, but not the least of whch is the eleotion of Josehp E. Hedges, Democrat, over State Senator Geo. O. Brownell by a plurality of 501 votes. While Hedges' election was generally conceded, the most sanguine of his friends did not suppose that his plurality would be more than 800, and there are many men who voted for Hedges who be lieved that Brownell could not be beaten in Cl'ickamas county. Governor Chamberlain s handsome plurality was another great cause for astonishment. Close students ot the situation thought that Chamberlain would get au even break here, but his plurality of 443 was j stunner. Even as weak a man as William J. Furnish carried the county four yjars ago by SU3. The vote of Charles V. Gallo way was a disappointment, though the Democratic nominee tor congress ran about 700 ahead of his ticket, and lost tho comity by only 140. George A. Steel, whose home is in Clackamas, received a handsome vote. and his majority over his three op ponents is 1305. Mr. Steel is the first Clackamas county man to be elect d to a state office. Robert A. Miller, Democratic can didate tor attorney, secured a com plimentary vote here, because of his former residence iu this city, where for four years he was register ot the United States laud office, and later practiced law. Supreme Judge Hailey profited by the argument for a non partisan bench and ran ahead of his ticket. When it is considered that there are iully twice as many Republicans as there are Democrats in the county, the results are vrey gratifying to the members of the minority party. Not withstanding the overwhelming vote for Jonathan Bourne at tho primar ies, in which he received a plurality of about 1000, Gearin succeeded in cutting down his plurality to 235.

Peruna is such a remedy. filth Commendation for Pe-ru-na. Mr. C. B. Fizer, Mt. Sterling, Ky., writes: "1 bare suffered with kidney and bladder trouble for ten years past. "Last March 1 commenced using your Peruna and continued for three months. "I have not used it since, nor have I felt a pain, I believe that lam well and there fore give my highest commendation to the cur&tlve qualities of Peruna."

Starkweathor for county judge, O. D. Eby for representative, Howard Y. Latourette for olerk, who .was de feated by only ten votes, Robert Baker for treasurer, and Dr. C. H. Miessner for coroner.

Commissioner William Brobst declined to become a candidate for a seoond term and John Lewellen, who was formerly an oc cupant of the office, will go on the bench. Mr. Lewellen is glad to have another chance in the office, as be was removed by a legislative act, secured by Senator Brownell. Coroner R. L. Holman succeeds himself and will enter upon his third consecutive term. Surveyor John W. Meldrum steps out alter two terms, and is succeeded by S. A. D. Hungate, of Molalla, who was elected without opposition. SHAD HATCHERY ESTABLISHED. Propagation of Eggs Attempted By U. S. Bureau of Fisheries. Field Superintendent J. Nelson oi lsnenes nas estaonsnea a station for the propagation of shad eggs in the basin above Station A. near the falls. Egs have already been sec ured, and are handled in a manner entirely different from the hatching of sali.ion or front eggs, being placed in glass jars, instead ot tronghs, and these jars are kept in inoMou. The work is new on this coast aud may be seen by the public. Tho Buroau of Fisheries is payiug t wo cents per thousand for fertilized eggs, aud many of the local hherruen are taking ad vantage of this offer, as the average female shad contains 30,000 eggs, and some have been known to have as high as 150,000. The station has beats and men, who row down where the fishing is being done and will take the eggs at night. Superintendent Wisner is very anxious for the suc cess of the new station, and desires the co-operation of the fishermen. Department Officers Entertained.
