Styeral Hundred Families Will Find Homes in Hitherto Neg lected Sections of the State n Talk About Railroads. Albany, Or. , March 25. The transaction recently reported in the Oregonian whereby J. M. Tallman, of Cedar Rapide, Is., aid S. E. Wlghtman, of Watertown, S. D.,j have gained possession bf 30,000 acres of land along the line of the Corvallis & Eastern railroad near Yequina Bay, is one of the most mportant realty transactions that has been consummated ioOregonfor some time. The gentlemen who made the purchase are representor tives of a large colonisation scheme, and have now returned to their Eastern homes to report reading ss to care for several hundred families. Theee people are coming to Ore gon to livs, and will populate one of the richest and yet most neglect ed portions of . the valley. Their land will extend from the interior through the Coast Range Mountains to tide land on Yaquina Bay. It is now a eparsely-tettled country, con sisting of considerable grazing and open land, fit for cultivation, and many acres of land covered with excellent timber ready for the' mTU.- All this vast tract of land will be cultivated and utilized by these thrifty farmers who are coming west to escape the rigors of winter climate in Iowa and the' Dakota?. When the stretch from Benton coun ty to the coast along the line of the Corvallis, & Eastern railroad is thickly settled by the large number of people who compose the propesad colony, the region between albany and toeoast will become one of imparfaht agricultural and indus trlol districts of the ttate. In this connection, extension of the Corvallis & Eaetern railroad in to Eastern Oregon is a topic of dis cussion iu Albany again. If settle ment of the country contiguous to the coast branch of the line makes that end of the concern a paying in vestment, will it not mean the es tablishment of extensive colonies aloDg the line of the road In East ern Oregon, and the extension of the road into that interior country, is a qu stion that is being asked here. Certain it is that Harriman peo ple are interested in the colony in Lincoln county in more or lets de gree, and the hundreds of people who are to form the colony are slat ed to tome to Oregon over the Har riman lines. Of course the inter est of the Harriman people may ex tend merely to getting the colonists routedover their aces for the . bust ness there is in it, but local opti mists try to think there is more than that in it. They like to think it means that Harriman is interested in the Cor vallis & Eastern railroad, and now, when the Oregon territory is the objective point of great railroad op erations, that Mr. Harriman has become aroused to the situation and is beginning the work of making good in the Corvallis & Eastern railroad territory. Chicago, March 25. A dispatch to the Record-Herald from Kansas City, Mo., Bays: "If a mau commits a crime so re volting that it shocks, the morals of the people just to hear about it then that man can go scot fres." That was the statement made by Judge Wofford in the criminal court yesterday. He had before him John Martin Speyer, of New Oi leans, twice convicted of murdering his little boy and twice given a Dew trial by the supreme court. Ang ered at the action of the higher trib unal be refused to try the cage again. "I sat as judge twice in this case," be went 00. "Both times the su preme court has seen fit to take a different position from mine. I will bave nothing more to do with it. "I'll call in Judge John A. Rich, of the circuit court of the Ffteenth Judicial dristrict, to hear the case. The trial will be set for June 28." ' Speyejr killed his 3-year-old boy July 22, 19O2. The man was a per- former with a street show. Speyer was in a tent when officers arrested him for attempting an assault on a little girl. He asked for permission to go into-bis tent a minute. The officers allowed him to, and he picked up a kcife and cut his liUle son's throat from ear to ear before thev could interfere.

It is also a specific remedy for all such chronic or long standing cases of catarrhal affec tions and their resultants, as bronchial, throat and lung diseases (except consump tion) accompanied with severe coughs. It is not so good for acute colds and coughs, but for lingering, or chronic cases it is especially efficacious in producing per fect cures. It contains Black Cherry bark, Golden Seal root, Bloodroot, Stone root. Mandrake root and Queen's root all oi which are highly praised as remedies for all the above mentfoned affections by such eminent medical writers and teachers as Prof. Bartholow, of Jefferson Med.

The average treatment of stomach trou bles consists of a rigid diet list, which often starves the patient. Of course it would be foolish for any one wbo knows that some foods are positively harmful and poisonous to continue eating them, even while following the Mi-o-na treat ment, but in ordinary cases of stomach troubles it is not necessary to starve or diet if Mi-o-na is faithfully used, a tablet before each meal. This scientific remedy, for the cure of stomach troubles, acts upon the whole digestive system, and strengthens the or gans so that they are able to digest any food that is eaten without fear of distress. If you suffer from loss of appetite, belch ing of gases, sour taste in the mouth furred tongue, severe pains in the region ot the stomach, depression of spirits, bad dreams, lack of energy, a stomach cough, otteDsive breath, headaches, back aches loss of strength and weight, you can be assured that these troubles are all due to iinpr-rfect digestion. strengthen the stomach by taking Mi-o-na tablet before each meal, and soon you will gain in weight, strength will return, and your food will give nour ithment so that the rich red blood will carry good health to every part of the system. Graham & Wells have so much confi dence in the power of Mi-o-na to cure stomach troubles and resulting ills, that they give a guarantee with every 50 cent box to refund the money unless it cureB Dry Slab Wood.

The average man Joes not save to exceed ten per cent, of his earnings. He must spend nine dollars in living expenses for every dollar saved. That being the case he can not be too careful about unnecessary ex penses. Very often a few cents properly in vested, like buying seeds for his garden, will save several dollars outlay later on. It is the same in buying Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. It costs but a few cents, and a bottle of it in the house often saves a doctor's bill of several dollars.

' Misguided Effort on the Part of Good Women Brings results the Opposite of Those De sired Other News. Seattle, Wash., March 24. In an addresB before the Knights of Co-, lumbus, Chaplain John A.r Ferry,' Tenth infantry, stationed at Port Lawton, declared that the W. C. T. U., in a misguided effort to abolish the army canteen, is responsible for much of the diunkeneas among the troops. He declared not to exceed 2 per cent, of the enlisted men be came intoxicated on pay day, and added: - . "But these faults, though small compared with civic organizations, would still be smaller if the army were untrammeled by a certain well meaning but overzealous civilian society. I speak of the W. C. T. Ui through whose efforts the anti- canteen law was promulgated. ' "The abolition of the canteen has been disastrous, and far from the expectations of these good women. So far-reaching has been the evil it will be only a matter of a short time when congress will give back the canteen to the soldier boy. Al ready steps are being taken among officers to bring this about. When the army had the canteen only the beet of beer was sold. No man was sold more than he could reasonably contain.' If through aef ,1 . 1 1 " i ; ' i, 3 ciaent ne oecame , intoxicated mere were friends to look after him. The money paid came back in periodi cal dividends to the companes. There was not the strong attraction to leave the post and miss call?, as there is at present with theauti-can-tten law in operation. "The guardhouse had few occu pants when the canteen was flour ishing, and the town grogshops few soldier habitues. The sooner the canteen is given back to the soldier the less cause the civilian will bave to turn up his noEe at the enlisted man." New York, March 24. The Rock efeller fortune to which1 John DH III will succeed is eetimated at 1,000,000,000. At simple interest of 3 per cent., in 50 years the for tune will have grown to $2,500,000,- 000. bhould the baby inherit the money-making traits ot his grand father and merely go on compound ing the fortune that will be his in 50 years, when he is much younger then his grandfather is now, it will amount to nearly $5,000,000,000. This is twice the amount of the na tional debt of the United States, which latt year was $2,283 84 382. " If the baby born today eo desires, at the age of 50 years he might be in a position to wipe out tbe na tional debt of the United States and still have a couple ot billion of dol lars left to keep the wolf from the door. New York, March 17. John D Rockefeller has resigned as a trus tee of the Fifth Avenue Baptist church. His resignation was hand ed in several months ago, but baa just become known to others than members of the board. His reason is poor health.

Morgan has fled from Italy in fear cf his life. There was a plot to kill him. He came to Rome to buy antiques and woiks of art, but before he could unpack his luggage he beard rumors that sent him flying. Dur ing the past three dayB the Roman newspapers have been discussing the precipitate flight of Mr. Morgan. The chief of the -Roman police meets the rumors-with-humor. He says the plot to kill the American financier was merely a ruse of jeal ous antiquarians who wanted to scare Morgan out ot Italy. Never did a ruse work more suc cessfully. Friends of Morgan say that when he heard that his life was in danger he gave way at once to fear. His nerve? became raspy and in a few hours he bad essured himself that Rome was no place for him. If you knew the value of Chamberlain's Salve you would never wish to be- without it.
