GEORGE E, CHAMBERLAIN.
The Portland Telegram, Inde-
"pendent Republican, has been fig
wing on the problem of the next
governor of Oreeom In an editor
ial article, it explains that public
sentiment in matters political ebbs
" and flows, and that often the tide
heaves and rushes heavily in an
unexpected direction . The heavy
majority of yesterday for one party
Is in no sense a guarantee that the
same party shall necessarily win to
morrow. This fact is especially
emphasized now, the Telegram Bays
because "there is a deep, wide
split" in the dominant party, that it
will be difficult to bridee, and
which the state convention may
only serve to widen, The Telegram
continues:
Then, while there promises to be
a very determined, hot to say
desperate struggle in the fepti
H;an convention over the nomina
tion lor the head of the ticket, all
Democrats, of whatever class, con
dition or opinion otherwise, seem
to agree noon ore man as lhair
choice for the gubernatorial nomin
" ation. He will make no effort to
obtain the nomination, is not desir
ous of it, but it is presumed will
not decline it. - He will go into the
campaign with the prestige of un-
- usual 11 not unprecedented popular
ity and political success. Ten years
aeo, though the state was then
heavily Republican, he was elected
Atttorney-General, and in 1900 he
was elected Prosecuting Attorney
of this district, which was Repub
lican on national issues by 5000
majority, receiving a large majority
of the votes cast in this county. It
is quite natural, therefore, espec
ially since the duties ol his present
. office .have been faithfully per
formed, that the Democrats should
unanimously turn to Mr. Chamber
lain as their nominee and only hope
next June. Whether there is any
cnttnkla rvt-i- wi A f CI1rl a Vl"T

can be better judged after the con-
.ventions havfc been held. A large
number of Republicans have voted
- for Mr. Chamberlain before, and
might do so again, especially if the
factional feud reached the vendetta

their patients to his store whenever they can. Any
thing which Mr. Peaslee may say can be depended
upon absolutely. In a letter to W. H. Hooker &.
Co., New York City, proprietors o Acker's English"
-Remedy, he says: ' In all my many years' experi

cine of any nature that gave such complete satis f
faction as Acker s English Remedy for Throat
and Lung Troubles. I have sold hundreds of
bottles, and have yet to learn of a single case
where it failed to cure. In
croup, it acts witn a cer
tainty that is really mar
velous. ' My wife does not
take much -stock in ' medi
cine, but she has absolute
faith in Acker's English
Remedy, always having it
at her elbow in case the
children are attacked by
croup- at mght; it is a
positively harmless rem
edy, as I can' personally
testuy. i know or a little ;
girl who accidentally drank a whole bottte. She was, of ourse. sick at her
stomach lor a short time, but the sickness passed away, and then the child was
in better health than ever before. . I can understand why Acker's English Rem
edy is so efficacious, because I am a druggist. It is not a mere expectorant,
but a strengthening, invigorating tonic as well. While it heals the irritations
of the mucous membrane, it also builds up the constitution and purifies the
blood. I endorse it absolutely." "v
