In his room and his bed was not made

was almost a cona:unt occupant.
On Sunday he procured a bottle of
chloroform liniment, which he took to
his room and drank about one-tlilrd of
the preparation, dulling his sensibili
ties He then calmly made a double
half-hitch about the upper hinge of the
door with a stout shawl strap and
fastened the other end around his
neck and sank down on the floor ana
was slowly strangled.
W. H. Wilcox, proprietor of the ho
tel, became alarmed MondPv because
Stevens did not appear, and at noon
he went to the room and tried to gain
admittance, but the door wiu locked
and thore was no ie..ponso to his re
peated knocking, so ho mounted to the
skylight and saw the body of Stevens
lying in a corner of tliu room. He
called In Sheriff Ber.tlo, who ,acom
pnnied by Dr. Carll, made an examina
tion and telephone.! to Coroner Hol
man. Stevens Is said to have worried con
siderably over domestic trouble in his
home. ' Last Friday he purchased the

voters in any way while it will remove
any doubt as to the possible objec
tions to the regularity of the nomina
tions.
The state convention will be held In
Portland June 16 and will be composed
of some 215 delegates. The basis of
representation was fixed by the com
mute at one regular delegate from
each county and one delegate at large
for every 250 votes cast for Chamber-
ain at the last election.
The manner of electing delegates to
the state convention was left to the
different county party organizations,
The ratio of representation will give
the different counties throughout the
state representation in the conven
tion approximately as follows:
Baker county 1G delegates, Benton
Clackamas 9, Clatsop G, Columbia 4,

with the Republican organization for
the selecting of a non-partisan bench
It was argued that Governor Cham
berlain had advanced the policy and
had maintained it in his appointments
while in office. Because of the mani
fest wisdom of the theory It was de
cided by the committee to see what
could be done with the Republican
leaders in fostering the idea and pre
serving a political division on the
bench of the state as far as may be
possible.

Of Special Value to Many Here In Or
egon City.
One of the most notable discoveries
and one that undoubtedly appeals
more than anything else to many peo
ple here In Oregon City Is the combin
ation of stomach remedies in the Mi-
o-na treatment. This prescription hag
worked wonders, and there Is now no
excuse for anyone suffering with Indi
gestion or weak stomach.
It acts specifically upon the muscles
of the stomach and bowels, strength
ening and stimulating them so that
they readily take care of the food that
is eaten. It also increases the flow of
gastric juices, thus getting from the
food the nourishment hat is neces
sary for health and energy.
The symptoms of indigestion are
numerous, such as distress after eat
ing, flatulance, heart-burn, sick bead
aches, dizziness and irritability. These
are all dispelled by a few doses of
Ml-o-na when the trouble Is recent,
but just as surely in long standing
and chronic cases If the treatment
is followed for a reasonable length of
time.
So positve are the good effects fol
lowing the use of Ml-o-na that the
remedy is Bold by Howell & Jones un
der an absolute guarantee to refund
the money If it should fail to cure.

for principles backed by the motto,
"Truth to God and Justice to All Hu
mankind." ., You say we are trying
to down business men. That's a mis
take. We are only exposing the faults
of men, who have forced one man to
bankruptcy in Aurora and put four
men out of business In Canby.
