Kxperlment Station nt Corvallls. Or.
Withyeombe has done a grout deal to
advance the standard of agriculture
In the state. He Is close to the farm-

! classes.
Clackamas county voters, regard

recognition of his valuable services to
the state already rendered and be

o
Democratic papers, and particular

Two days ago in a beautiful little
city that clusters around the Falls of
the Willamette, there lay the bodies
of two men, each of whom met a vio
lent death. A few hours before each
j had been a living man In the posses
jsion of all his God given faculties. In
the full joy of life. A bullet ended the
I life of each one, but the similarity-
ends here. One. Sheriff Shaver, the
sheriff of Clackamas County, was a
good citizen, a brave officer, who met
death In the line of duty. The other,
Frank Smith, a desperado, thief, mur
derer and all that is bad,' was killed i
by an officer of the law, after being
hunted through the countryside with
blood houuds like a dangerous wild
beast. The mortal remains of one lay
In state in the Court house, surround
ed by a guard of honor, the other
within the walls of the morgue. About
the blor of one passed the people who
had known and respected the deceas
ed in life, awed In the presence of
death, or grief stricken at the loss of
la friend and neighbor. Through the
charnel house containing the remains
of the murderer another mass of hu
manity surges, and only comments
heard are oif joy that the earth is rid
of his polluting presence. The inert
clay of the martyr officer was consign
ed to mother earth in the presence of
a large concourse of sincere mourners,
while the shell from which the sin
stained soul had fled to meet its mak
er was given a burial befitting his
misspent life. The fate of one Is that
to which every peace office Is exposed
in enforcing the laws. The tragic
ending of the other is the typical end
ing of the "bad" man. Whatever our
belief In the hereafter Is. who would
not rather have lived the life of the
officer than that of the renegade.

Jocts jumps fruni nothing an acre to
$."i0 or $1000 an acre as soon as the
project Is "declared." Hut the engin
eers, and there are hundreds of them
engaged In the work, are prohibited
by law from making anything out of
this appreciation In values. And there
has not yet been a breath of scandal
about the service.
The Department of Agriculture has
had its scandals, but there are plenty
of honest scientists thsre who each
year add millions to the value of the
farm products of the country and get
no personal profits out of It. The
Bureau of Plant Industry has recently
completed some work on providing
a long-staple cotton, almost as valu
able as Sea Island, that can be grown
on the uplands, and In a few years
this will almost double the value of
the American cotton crop. Yet the
men who did the work made nothing
out of It and will not.
Now the Rureau of Public Roads,
which officially has nothing to do with
crops, discovered Incidentally the val
ue of a fertilizer for tobacco made
from finely ground granite. This
simply means opening up an Inexhaust
ible supply of a fertilizer at $(3 a ton
that we have heretofore had to Im
from Germany at 1100 a ton. for there
was not potash to be had In thli coun
try. It was a case In which if the man
had resigned from the service and kept
his process a secret, he could have
cleaned up millions. Hut he did not,
call It stupidity or altruism whichever
you choose.
There are nlenrv of other cases that
noint to more than mere honesty on
the part of government worker. Of
course they ought to be honest, though
they are not paid extravaeatit snlarlos
for being so. Hut a consideration of
this sort of thing is refreshing and
suggests that perhans there Is some
good left In humanity after all.

Foreigners have protested a lot
about our commercial dumping prac

nrotest heard when King Edward un

ings on Pb-rpont Morgan.

MAKING

WITHY-
bers for the success of "Our George.
Making such charges can only be con
strued as a confession of the weak
ness of the opposition to Dr. Withy
eombe. Instead of detracting from
the strength of the Republican candi
date, this course on the part of Democ
racy Is really proving a capital thing
for Dr. Withyeombe who is gaining
votes as a result.
What if Dr. Withyeombe was born
in England, Is there a single incident
in his private or public life during a
35 years' residence in this state that
h nomncrats are able to call up for
criticism at this time? The truth of
ment fearlessly.
ALL ARE NOT GRAFTERS.
This Is not a defense of graft in the
government service. There is enough
graft, always has been and probably
always will be. When Henj. Franklin
was the first Postmaster General, he
had to reprove some of the officials
and post-masters under him lor reck
less extravagance if not actual dis
honesty in handling the $32,000 that
it took to run the department the flrBt

Importance of the Teeth
When a pretty girl parts rosy lips ami reveals de
cayed teeth, inflamed gums and a disagreeable
breath, how quickly the charm is dispelled, and
how painful and mortifying must it be to her to
b; e victim of such a condition.
Many adies whose faces arc unattractive in re
pose, become positively charming when their
smiles reveal clean, white teeth, well cared for.
Though ladies may be dressed in the richest ap
parel, with eyes enchanting and features perfect,
if they have decayed and broken teeth, diseased
gums and foul breath, their friends cannot ap
proach them withput a feeling of repugnance.
In twenty-four hours we breath twenty-five thous
and times. What must be the effect on the deli
cate structure of the lungs when for days, months
and years the air we breathe is drawn through a
a depository of filth and poisoned by being mixed
with effluvia rising from decayed and ulcerated
teeth ?
Why endanger your health and life when a few
hours' work will make your mouth clean and
beautiful?
We do painless work and guarantee it.
