The river glidoth at its own Hweet will Dear God! the very houses seem asleep j and all that mighty heart is lying still." The only sound is the footlalls of the treasurer who cares for the funds of either great national party as ho paces back and forth be fore the safe at the national head Quarters dreaming of the chocks that never came, and wishing that some benevolent, disinterested malefactor who has possessed himself with the wealth of the common people migh hurrv to the rescue with a few back hand scrawls on an oblong strip of fine-textured naner. Sleep is restful and all that have loved virtuo have been sipping from the fountain, until the weary head has drooped upon the breast, and tired nature s sweet re storor, balmy sleep, lias spread her niantlo of rest o'er a troubled sea of humanity. Sloop woll, and may the riohest blessings rest on him who first invented it. Where is the excitement and clamor of a presidential eleotion, why have not the peonle taken the usual inter est in this important campaign and aroused themselves to the labors for either candidate? Is it the similarity of tho polioies of tho two real leaders that cajsos the Jack of interest, or is it because there may be that inex pressible feeling tliat comes over one when some dire disaster is about to fall? Will the nation pass the season of its presidential election in a ooma tose state, and waking from its leth argy find itself with a greater prob lem, one that may question for a time the ruling power of a frej and inde pendent people? Dark and ominouB clouds have been gradually spreading across its azure sky until perhaps their very blackness lias overshadowed the doings of today and dimmed the pathway of tomorrow. Tho registration has been greater than years before, and yet from ex passions on every hand one is lad to believe that ths vote four days hence for president will be light, and that tho mightiest effort must be exerted bv tho party leaders to call out men to do their d ltv at the noils. News papers have heoii full of talk, mostly from opposing candidates, in tneir wrangles bacit and forth. A slight stir is apparent in the eastern states, but throughout the land there is f noticeable lack of interest, i calmness that can not be shaken off, an op pressive pall o'erspreads, a wliiS' per to the deadened soul "till an gels wake theo. " Farmers Reseat Coercion. At a recent mooting of representa tive farmors of Washington township, Marion county. Indiana, the follow iug resolutions were adopted, and it was also agreed to form an endless chain among the farmers of the ooun trv: "Whereas, Tho Associated Press has sent ont a s'atouiont lBsuod by r. M. Sharpies, president of tho Sharpies Senurntor Oomnanv of W oHtchoster, Pa., saying that the hour lhyan is elected tho Sharpies works will close down, and "Whereas, Such statements as this will intensify the present financial panio and will also tend to bring on, if possiblo, other and greater financial calamity: therefore, be it "Resolved, That as farmers who have the (rood of our country at heart, we deeply deplore suoh unwarranted statements and believing they aro made for partisan purposes to intimi date and influence voturH, wo here with denouuee all firms making this and similar aiinonncementw, iib narrow and bigoted, and in these times as dis loyal to tho best bnsinoss interests of tho nation, and inasmuch as the per sons and firms now resorting to these uufair and nnputriotio mothodB main tain thoir businesses by patronago of Democrats as well as republicans, we condemn those methods as an insult to any democratic patron which ought to be, and which we hope will bo, resented. "Resolved, That wo hereby call up on tho farmers of the nation, irre spective of party, who believe in fair play, unite with us through thoir or ganization and as individuals, in (rushing out this unwise and indis creet spirit which would sacrifice the country's welfare for party suo coss. (Signed) Albert Blue, Chair man; Ross S. Ludlaw, Secretary." With few exceptions, tho numerous straw voIob being taken throughout tho country, show that tho laboring vole is largely with Bryan and Kern. As a matter of fact, nearly all tho la bor unions have endorsed the course of President OouiperB and Mr. John Mitchell, of tho Federation of Labor, in euporting tho democratic ticket. Donpito tho existence ot this condition with reference to tho labor vote, re publican campaign managers aro fran tically endeavoring to make it appear that the "Pathor of Injunction" is tho choice of union labor, and that President Gompers and Mr. Mitchell nro in bad order with the labor vote. Of course, this kind of campaign does not fool anybody. Coughs of Children Especially night coughs.

If UGLY COERCION. Mr. P. M. Sharpies, president of a West Chester, Pa., factory, whioh employs 1,000 men, has posted a pla oard about his plant announcing that should the "dire calamity'-1 of Mr. Bryan's election befall the country. in "that hour these works wiil have to close down." We bolievo that the Democratic National Committee re cently offered $5,000 for conclusive evidence of an employer's coeroion against the candidacy of Mr. Byan. Difficult as it is to draw the line for the purpose! of the court, between legitimate notice concerning present and future trade and deliberate use of force, it would seem that this case is reasonably clear,. Mr. Sharpies scorns to take refugo behind ambiguous words. Ho frankly threatens. "Un less you beat Bryan, " he says, "you lose your jobs. ' ' This sort of bribery is more danger ous than the open barter and sale of votes, because it is subtler and harder to exterminate. The Democratic party and Mr. Bryan have suffered heavily from it in other campaigns. As a weapon of political warfare it is pocuharly unfair and contemptible. As an index of commercial sagacity, it is a reflection upon any man's in telligence. The man who thinks that the country will go to the dogs upon Mr. Bryan's election is simply a fool. The mail who bases minatory notices to His dependents noon snch reasoning should enjoy either a fool s esteem or a bushwhacker's punishment. Mr. Sharpies' concern manufactures sep arators. His apparent conception that the earth will stop bearing grain when Mr. Bryan stops into the White House is profoundly interesting from the point of view of an alienist. Hearing of the above throat, Charles J. Miller, the leading business man of Newfaue. N. x. . owner of a large separator, a coal and wood yard and a general store, makes publio an nouncement that he has cancelled his orders with the Sharpies Separator Company, of West Chester, Pa., be cause he believes that the company is attempting ot coerce its employes for political purposes. This is good med icine for those who attempt coercion, and if more would take this lesson and act the Fame it mig'it have a ten dency to check this evil praotice. Tho Amorican athletes at the Mara thon games in London, it is said, were treated with great discourtosy by the English management and if it were tossiuie to creat) an interna tional ill feeling from so trivial a cir cumstance it would be done. But let tins grouch of t lie athletes be offset by the complaint of Dr. Smith, one of the editors of the .London Lancet, against the treatment of the medical visitors to the Tuberculosis Congress recently held in Washington. Dr. Smith compares our hospitality jvith that of the 1'rencli and makes a very unfavorable showiug for our enter tainment. He says that the fight Bgainst tuberculosis has been put back three years as a result of shabby tieat ment accorded to the congress. In Paris the oongress was entertained in the Palace of Fine Arts which was oponed by the .French president in person and every possible courtesy was extended by the government. In Washington permission to meet in the Capitol was refused by opposition of Speaker Cannon and the Tuberculosis Oongross was compelled to moot an unfinished museum in which the workmen were still hammering. Moreover there was no appropriation by the government which did not act as a host, and insufficient funds for expenses had to be obtained by oontri butious. Presidont Koosevolt charged with discourtesy for seuding as his proxy to make 'the opening speech the secrotary of the treasury. Mr. uorteiyou. ur. Adoiph smith evidently as much disgruntled as some of our athletes were. It is possible that Dr. Smith and the athletes think more highly of themsolveB than they ought to tliink. Blood is still thicker than water and tho spirit of tho Eng- ish language, iitorature, laws and institutions will go inarching on, over Dr. smith and tho athletes. Mr. Taft'B plea that Ins party can receive largo contributions from the uterests to bo benefitted without be ing obligated to them or influenced by them, recalls tho plea which Francis Bacon mado when impeached before the house of lords for taking bribes. He said that while he bad taken them, they lmd never influenced his jmlgumont, but he was removed in disgraco. It is a pity he did not know of tho modern method by which one protects himself trom in nonce, while at the same time getting the benefit of the contributions bv merely saying that it is distinctly uu dorstood by tho aiver that the re ceivur will not bo influenced by the gift. But men are usually influenced y their benefactors. And this re alls the story of a discussion that was going on at Lincoln several years ago winio tno legislature was in ses sion. A number of legislators, lobby ists and newspaper men wore seated m a hotel office discussing the ques ion, "Whst is an honest man. After sevoral opinions had been ex pressed someone asked Herman rnnnio, a Douglas county member, to give an answer. Herman replied veil I tink an honest man is one who will stay bought." The great oriKiratioiig nuance tho republicin party s campaign aud thev will con trol tho republican officials whom they elect. If Iheodore Roosevelt is really look ing for undesirable publio men he need go no further than tho republi sh national ticket. Let him lunuiro how many millions of dollars of In dian oil leases have been given away since James Sherman was made chair man of tho committee on Indian affairs of the honso of representatives et him find out what the Indians ever got for those leases in excess of bottle of whiskey. Let huu find out how many times those leases wore lven away in some omnibus UP' propnation bill, and how they were granted in bills whose title stated their contents. If tho republican party proposes to appeal to the con science, the patiiotism and the incor ruptible citizenship of tho country it mnst rid itself of tho candidacy of James Sherman, or its oamiaigu is a forgery on its face. Evidence of progress in Spain since the United States charitably relieved that country of tho incubus of her imarls in the Antilles and in the Orient, as Cuba and the Philippines wore once called, is shown in the fact that Spain is the sole country in Eu rope that has escaped the business depression ot the last-year. It has actually shown gains for tho last six months in both imixirts and exixirts and its issue of bonds was largely oversubscribed bv its own people. Nothing Imore fortunate could havn hapienod that country than the relief of tho exhausting and corruptive ex. peiiso of her colonics. Jack London's New Book, Jack London has just written a book of 143,000 words entitled "Mar tin Eden." The Pacific Monthly has purohased for $7,000 the serial rights for this vivid story. It began in the September number of the Paoifio Monthly and will run for twelve months. "Martin Eden" is a charac ter study the story of a fighter a fighter as a newsboy in the alleys of San Francisco; a fighter as a rowdy in' slums ; and finally a fighter for educa tion and culture, struggling agsiust the odds of common birth and vulgar environment, with a desperation of courage that prenents a powerful blending of brutality of strength with sublimity of purpose. His inspiration is a woman of the higher sphere of life, but his motive is the mighty im pulse that animates a sonl and brain born to expand until fettering ignor ance is sundered and iguoble influence trampled under foot. It is not too much to say of "Mar tin Eden" that it possesses more of fasoination and virility, grips the imagination and sympathies more keenly, and imparts more of courage than any book produced in years. Send 50 oents in stamps to the Pa cific Monthly, and they will mail you the Pacifio Monthly for six months beginning with the Septem ber number, in which the first install ment of London's story appea'8. ' Ex-Governor David R. Francis, of Missouri, is confident of the eleotion of Bryan and Kern. "He is making more votes every hour in my section of the oountry, " paid the former cabi not member of Cleveland's adminis tration, "and conditions are the same in a number of other states whioh I have toured. " Continuing he said: "Missouri will give Bryan the largest majority that any presidential candi date ever received. Everybody is for the Nebraskan. Employer, employee, business and factory interests want that leader of demooracy. There are many reasons why the business men of my state 'should vote for Bryan. His ideas and his platform is to our liKing. We believe in every "man ownine his own property and we' do not want a few to be the controlling spirits. Our motto is equality to all and favoritism to nono. If anyone thinks that Mr. Bryan will not carry Missourri with flying colors let him go through our state and invesiigate. The name Bryai has become a house hold word and I am almost, certain that by the dawn of November 4th Bryan will be elooted President of the United States." Ex-Governor Francis has always been a good forecaster of presidential elections and he asserts that the Bryan sentiment has swept the country. If we should follow the advice of the Oregonian and some of the great papers as well as many 'politicians, we must adopt a monarchial govern ment. We are glad to find compara tively few of such as compared to the whole. The best service that can be rendered for permanent prosperity is to rebuke this assumption so careless ly cast to the poople by those who are seekii g to create in the public mind that continued prosperity depends on the success of a particular party, aud to rebuke in a manner decisive. Our form of government contemplates changes from time to time, and nothing could be so disastrous or so vile in tho mind of a good true Amer ican patriot as this attempt to instill in the people's minds the belief that there is danger to business in chang ing a portion of the officers of our government. What logio is there in the matter? If the people cannot change their officers without crebting a panio, then the logical step is to go to a monarchy. In other words, shall the poople rule? The distinguished president of Priuoeton University is down on ath letics and Becret Greek letter socie ties. In a recent address at Haver ford College at the seventy-fifth anni versary of that institution he spoke very emphatically saying, "The na tion needs trained and disciplined men ; men who know and who can tliink j men who oau perceive and interpret; whose' minds are accus tomed to difficult tasks; whose faoul tios are instrumoutB of precision, and whoso judgements are steadied by knowledgo. Such men the nation is not getting from the present college life and cannot get until that life is organized in a different spirit and for a different porposo. Athletics are overdone. The trouble is men are not iuterestod in Btudy. They have no timo for it. One of the bright stu dents once told me be had no time to take up a certain line of study as ho was too busy running the college. He was looked op to by the under graduates for suggestions and help in organizing all kinds of clubs." The Yankees of the East and the Yankees of the Oiriont are mixing in Yokohama and Tokio. It is wired that the hospitality cf Honolulu, of Nov Zealand and Australia have been eclipsed although it must be won dered, when the exhaustion of super latives is romemberod, how this can be. It iB all very wall for those two bodies of antipodal Yankees to fra ternize sml drink tea together but there are some millions of peoplo in thiB country who will feel more com fortable when the battleships shall have turnod their rudders on the island kingdom and are safe away without too ugly behaviour. The American tar is a Tartar when he is drinking aud is not always too nice when he is sober. The Japanese is his superior in politeness and for that matter excels the world in the ameni ties and convenances, regardless ut how he expects to keep them. Tho president of the proposed Santo Dominican railway is of the opinion that Santo Domingo should belong to the United St-itea All the world, in cluding ourselves, no doubt wonders why we hold the far off Philippines and exercise only a stepfatherly con trol over Cuba, Hayti and Santo Domingo. It, may be well (enough '(to retain the Philippines, but surely any reason for holding these far off islands has greater potency with relation to those of the Antilles in the track from our ports to the Panama canal. Santo Domingo is rich in natural re sources, and the railroad i opening up a oountry whioh will snpply an immense amount of exixirts of natural products. Fulton savs in his speeches that business depression threatens if Bryau should be elected. And hundreds and thousands of workuigmon ont of work and 011 the verge of starvation now I Like most republicau campaigners, Fulton takes the majority of people to bo fools, utterly ignorant ana uncon scious of plain facts. If you weighed 800 pounds, would von like to lm railed "Willie?" Think of calling such a distinguished statesman bv snch a name. LETTERS FROM WOMEN About Pe-ru-na. $imwk - - Jf y4. MRS. CLARA L MILLER. The following testimonials represent actual experience of every-d&y life. women who have been ill and have found a reliable remedy in Peruna. It means a great deal to the women of America to have at hand a remedy capable of giving suoh relief. Consti pation, rheumatism, kidney trouble, bronchitis and a host of other catarrhal conditions are relieved by Pernna. At least this is what the women say. They have no object in saying such things, except to render truthful testimony to their suffering sisters. Peruna Is making such friends every day. It is the testimony of the people that has made Peruna so Justly famous Chronic Bronchitis. Mrs. Clara L. Miller, Box 71, Columbia Sta., Seattle, Wash., formerly vice pres ident of Skoogay Country Club, writes: "Nine bottleB of Peruna cured me of a protracted case of bronchitis. There la no superior remedy that I know of, as the action of Peruna on the vaea motor svstem of nerves is very beneficial. It Increases the tone of the system and aids nature to perform her functions. "I have recommended it to a number of my friends, who speak in the same high terms of It. I have certainly found It a most efficacious medicine." Nervous, Tired and Weak. Mrs. Christina Smukalla, 490 Winslow Ave., Buffalo, N. Y., writes: "I trust every one suffering from Bystemio ca tarrh will read this and profit by it. 'I was in a very bad condition indeed, when I began to take Peruna, and my friends as well as myself were very much alarmed over my condition. I was always nervous, could not sleep at night, my food d me no good, and I was always tired and weak. I tried several doctors, but found no relief. "Finally I took two bottles of Peruna and felt like a different woman. How ever, I did not stop there, but kept on with It until I had taken several bottles, when I felt completely cured, aud have remained so ever since. I can eat and Bleep now." "The Fruit Grower." of St. Josoph. Missouri, has just issued a Home seekers' Edition, which contains an extended report trom all the fruit growing districts of the West, and no one state receives as much attention as Oregon There is page after page of illustration and text, and every part of the state is given prominence. In faot, Oregon probably gets more at tention than any other two states. This is true because the state is better organized, doing better advertising, has more good ' pictures and has learned how to present its resources and attractions bettor than any other state in the Union. Don't hitch your horse in the rain. (See E. W. Mellien & Co. 's ad, page 8. ) INTRODUCTORY TO BE FOLLOWED BY "REFLECTIONS ON THE ONE-TALENT-MAN" Perhaps you are traveling in a beaten path. Possibly, today, you live yesterday over again. Possibly you are In the habit of living the same day over and over again, 365 days of the year. Then it wiil be some time before you are in the notion of entertaining a little change of programme. But you'll get around to it. You are the man we are talking to. After this, read in following issues of this paper, "Reflec tions on the One-Talent Man." You learned to stand alone when some two years of age. You are old enough to learn to THINK alone now. Did it ever occur to you that most people NEVER DO learn to think alone? When you feel that you can listen to something a little out of the ordinary we are going to propose that you become one of the 300 Individuals who, as proprietors, are going to constitute the foundation of a great mercan tile enterprise. Don't hold up your hands in horror. You have contributed your share toward the building up of many a great enterprise. The only difference Is this: You didn't retain any evidence of the money you put In the business so the title to the sky-scraper, the block It occupies and the goods It contains the title to It Is all In the other fellow. But your money did the work your money built the palace of the poor merchant who used to sell you goods In a dingy little shack on a side street. This Is the "other side" of the story of the rise from the poor clerk to the millionaire merchant. Perhaps you, kind reader, before you have gotten this entirely off your mind, will be prepared to become one of the 300. You like, no doubt, to do what most every one else is doing. That is because, like most every one else, you want others to think for you.- But remember this: The man who goes to the front Is the man who gets out of the beaten path. He gets out of the old rut, cuts across lots, and while the multitude plods along he bobs up far ahead. When you have thought of all the possible reasons why you should NOT be one of the proprietors of the establishment where you do business, then you will be prepared to consider the reasons we are going to advance why you SHOULD BE one of the proprietors. This later. E. W. Mellien & Co., is a corporation, organized for the purpose of dealing In all merchandise needed In the complete equipment of a home. The stockholders elect three directors and they conduct the business through a manager selected by them. Par value of the stock is $10 per share and there are 600 shares unsold, which are now placed on the open market. The public was not asked to take this stock at the beginning of the enterprise. It is offered now after the business is established and after the stock Is on an actual earning basis of 10 per cent. January 1st, next, a statement will be prepared from the books of the corpora tion for the benefit of all stockholders, and this will show the stock to have an earning capacity at that time GREATER THAN 10 PER CENT. We venture this prediction and you will see the fact bear out the prediction. One year from January 1st, next, every share of the capital stock of E. W. MELLIEN & CO., now worth $10.00, will be worth $20.00, and will have an earning capacity of 20 per cent. If you have not already guessed it we will later show you the ob ject In distributing this stock instead of placing It In the hands of a few Individuals. We are sellng agents for ths stock and invite your Inquiry regarding it either in person or by letter, Call on or address EASTHAM, SMITH & CO. Over TEe Bank of Oregon City MRS. S. L. JEWELL A Good Word for Pe ru na. Mrs. S. L. Jewell, B. F. D. 1, Freeport, Pa., writes : "Haying used Pernna myself for many years with beneficial effects, and ob serving the good it has done others of my acquaintance, L cannot but say a good word in behalf of Peruna." Keeps Pe ru na In the House. Mrs. Maria Qoertz, Orien ta, Oklahoma, writes : "My husband, children and my self have used your medicines, and we al ways keep them in the house in case of necessity. I was restored to health by this medicine, and Dr. Hartman's in valuable advice and books. People ask about me from different places, and are surprised that I can do all of my housework alone, and that I was cured by the doctor of chronlo catarrh. My husband was cured of asthma, my daughter of earache and catarrh of the stomach, and my son of catarrh of the throat. When I was sick I weighed 100 pounds; now I weigh 140. "Dr. Hartman's remedies have proven to be reliable and wonderful. Their effect upon the system is remarkable. Peruna quiets the nerves, and is a great specific for all forms of chronio catarrh. "I am very glad to say that I can write you that I am cured in every way of catarrh, with which I had suffered terribly for ten years, I cannot thank you enough for your advice." Boston is undoubtedly the most for eign, or shall we say the most cos mopolitan of all the cities of the United Statso. In a Boston theater they have girl ushers in grey uni forms, a custom which has been in troduced from Europe. Now let them sell thoatrical programs, check over coats, umbrellas and hats and charge two sous and they will have the leal thing. The great draw bridge across the Willamette river, built jointly by the Great Northern and Northern Pacific Railways and having the largest draw span of any bridge in the world, is a sucefss. Work trains testing the bridge have passed to and fro for sev en! days. MRS. MAnALA KCIU. They are the truthful utteranoes of Constipation, Kidney Trouble. Mrs. Mahala Held, Corbyvllle, Ont., Canada, writes: "Your celebrated remedies hare been a wonderful boon to me In my old age. I have not been In so good health for several years as now. "I was troubled with constipation, rheumatism and kidney trouble. A little over two years ago I completely lost my health, becoming almost help less, when a dear friend sent me your remedies, Peruna and Manalin. "I began to take them, following the directions on the bottles. I very soon began to feel benefit edJiy their use, and continued to take them. "I am now completely recovered from the above ailments, in fact, better than I have been for years past. "I cannot praise the remedies too highly and will always reoommend them to others." Pe-ru-na In Tablet Form. For two years Br. Eartman and his assistants have Incessantly labored to create Peruna In tablet form, and their strenuous labors have just been crowned with success. People who objeot to liquid medicines can now seoure Pe runa tablets, which represent the medicinal Ingredients of Peruna. Eaoh tablet is equivalent to one Average dose of Peruna. "After all tliat has been said about lack of demand for the box apples of the Northwest his season, " says the Chicago Packer, "there seem to be some pretty big deals being made in that section and no doubt the prices will prove to be profitable to the growers. The quality of the fruit grown in that section and the man er in which it is nut nr can't be over looked by the trade when it comes to laying in supplies for the winter's business." Senator Fulton advocates the viola tion of their pledges to the people by statement JNo. I. members of the legis latere. And he says he is a thorough republican, and doos not admit that his party ever did or can do anything wrong. He is one ot ttie sort or pub lic men whom the people, the repub lican rank and file ,as well as the democrats, are beginning to weed out of public service. No more beautiful publication has beeu issued in Oregon than the one just from the press whioh gives most graphically the resources aud attrac tions of Lincoln county. It is issued jointly by the commercial bodies of Newport, Toledo, Elk City, and Wald port, and its central illustration is a bathing scene at Newport the beach there is unexcelled on the Pacific coast. High prioes for eggs and the rather unfavorable condition of the poultry market would naturally indicate that it would be the part of wisdom for farmers to hold their laying poultry for future supplies of eggs. The dry weather and high price of feed of course have led many farmers to un load thoir poultry more freely than usual. Producers of flue fruits throughout the Northwest, ana particularly those of Oregon, fully appreciate the ihelp they are receiving from Portland "mer chants, who give up their show win dows for a display of theBe products. Exhibits from Hosier and Lincoln county, Oregon, and Lewiston, Idaho, have attracted much attenticn the past week. M. Grant Hamilton, who is in charge of the Chicago Headquarters of the American Federation of Labor at the Victoria Hotel, believes Bryan and Kern will be elected. No man in the country is in more complete touch with the labor situation and it is his opinion that Mr. Bryan will get at least 90 per cent of the labor vote. Hon. J. W. Bailey, state dairy and food commissioner, has been made chairman of the season ticket sale of the Portland Country Club and Live stock Assocaition for 191)9. Mr. Bailey is determined that five-thousand tick ets at $3 uach must be sold before the close of the present year. This week the first foreign potatoes of the season arrived at .New York and the indications are that there will be heavy supplies from abroad after about November 1. The talk of a shorteued crop in this country has been heard abroad. Winter is beginning to pnt in an ap pearance, which as usual means that thousands of poor people in the big cities will be frozen nnder the reign of the protected coal trust. The present.high prices for egge, of course, will lead the daily newspapers to print a lot of "rot" abont an egg trust and its control of the entire sup ply of the country.
