HEARST.
Every man who is aggressive for
the public weal has enemies. There
are those who fatten off of special
privilege at the expense of the
many, and he antagonizes these.
He threatens that which they con
sider their preserves, and they
growl and strike back. The rich
ice trust magnate, or coal baron
on Wall street is enraged when any
man challenges his right to plunder
the public. When William Hearst
attacked the coal trust and the coal
railroads in his newspapers and sub
sequently brought suit against them
in the courts to compel them to live
within the law, he bearded lions in
their lairs. He prodded them with
gads and smote them with clubs.
They are, of course, his bitter en
emies. When, in his publications,
he fought the New York gas trust
to its knees and exposed and de
nounced the ice trust of that city,
he sent the gas barons and the ice
barons into the camp of his enem
ies. When through a long series
of years, he continually and con
sistently advocated better hours,
better conditions and belter remun
ation for labor, he added those who
fatten off of cheapened labor
to his mortal foes. When he de
tected, then exposed, and then
whipped to justice and oblivion the
big insurance thieves, they and
their friends and henchmen became
fighting recruits in the camp of his
enemies. Men, Jerome with his
vaunted virtue did not dare to pros
ecute, towit: The ice thieves, the
coal thieves, the insurance thieves,
Hearst lashed and whipped with
relentless fury.
Regardless of his motives or of
his life in other respects, in all these
things, Mr. Hearst was right, and
those he fearlessly assailed, wrong,
It was from those he thus antagon
ized that the denunciations of Mr.
Hearst came in the Buffalo conven
tion. They do not want him for
governor, because in that position
Mr. Hearst will be the more power
ful to undo the wrongs they daily
heap upan New York people. Every
voice raised against him in that
convention was the voice of a special
privilegist or nis hencnman or
hanger-on. Every denunciation
and every invective hurled against
him was a good reason for Mr,
Hearst to be named governor. He
may be deleated at the polls, but
that is no sign that he ought to be,
Tomorrow night there will be a
minstrel performance at the Opera
House. On the outside during
most or all the performance, there
will be a congregation of half a doz
on to two dozen boys. X our or
five of them will be not more than
a dozen years of age. Of' course
they either ought to be ins'de the
show or inside their homes. More
of the boys will be 15 or 16 years.
They, too, ought to ba inside the
show or at home. The condition
is one for parents to think about,
It is one for council men to think
about. It is one for the police to
think about. It is a condition that
ought to be abated, for mischief
breeds at just such gatherings.

CAN'T SELL IT NOW.
Cider That Wanned the Boys up
Contained Twice as Much" Alcohol
as Does Beer.
Champagne cider that has been
on sale by the drink at the Gem
cigar store has been put under the
ban by the city authorities, and its
sale ordered discontinued. The
suspicions of the officers were arou?-
ed by observing occasional drunks.
and a little attention developed the
fact that much of the intoxication
came from the cider. The wide
popularity of the drink also excited
more or less curiosity. It was no
ticed that minors as well as men
carried it around in their pockets
in pint flasks, after the fashion of
pure and unadulterated booze. At
last a man was found who was 'or
yide" as the boys call a first class
case of drunkenness and the cider
was located as the cause. A bottle
of it was taken to the chemists at
the college and an analysis showed
it to contain 7.32 per cent alcohol,
or more than twice as much
as beer, more than the light
wines, and about one-sixth as much
as whiskey straight. As soon as
the report of the chemist was re
ceived Chief Lane immediately is
sued orders, and the stuff has been
withdrawn from sale.
It is manufactured by a soft
drink establishment in Salem, and
it is the belief of the officers that it
is especially prepared for dry towns.
Mr. J. Mon Foo, 'an experienced com
pounder of Chinese medicines, successor
to the late Hong Wo long, of Albany,
Oregon, is now prepared to furnish Chi
nese medicine to all. The undersigned
recommends him and guarantees satis
faction.
Call or write him at No. 117 West Sec
ond Street, Albany, Oregon.

GIANT BOY DEAD.
Lived Formerly Near Corvallis Grew
From 100 to 165 in Four
Months.
Walter Miller is dead. He is
the boy, formerly of the vicinity of
Corvallis, who manifested such ab
normal growth. From a little boy
of 12, weighing 100 pounds, he
became within four months a man
weighing 165 pounds. His case
was described in the Times about
a year ago. " He lived then on a
farm a mile or two across the Wil
lamette. Besides his growth in
stature and weight, there was a
change of voice incident to the
transition from boyhood to matur
ity, and in addition a growth of
whiskers. The growth beean
in Marchlast year, and by July
the changes had all taken place.
The boy was taken to Portland and
there the best medical men of the
state puzzled over his case. It wa3
finally concluded that the unusual
conditions were due to an ailment
of the brain.
The pathetic part of the story is
that the abnormal physical devel
opment was attended with corre
sponding loss of strength. After a
time, the lad became unable to
walk, and the past year was con
fined to bed. He died a day or
two ago at Oregon City, where the
family moved from Corvallis last
winter.
FOR SEWER CONNECTIONS.
Ordinances and Penalties Movement
for Enforcement of Connections.
A stiff ordinance, providing for
making connections with sewers
was passed bv the city council at a
meeting Monday night. It pro
vides certain requirements that
must be observed in making con
nections, and establishes a penalty
for violations of its terms. It is
supplemental to a former ordin
ance on the same subject, and its
passage leaves the citizen in a bad
plight if he fail to comply with its
behest.
What is more important in this
item of news is that the sewer com
mittee reported to the council the
owner every house in town that
is not connected. This, was done
after a speech by Mayor Johnson
in which he declared that these
connections must be made, and that
if the sewer committee would re
port tho?e who are failing to com
ply, he would see that the ordin
ance is entorced. - At Saturday
night's meeting the full list was
read, among them being several
leading citizens and some of the
city officials. The demand of the
mayor for the list of unconnected
houses and his declared purpose
of insisting that connections be
made would seem to be a fair warn
ing to all delinqnents to get busy,
WHO DROVE THEM?
A Gray and a Bay Horse? and Got
Hay From the Bndine Warehouse.
Who was the driver of a Gray
horse and a bay horse when a call
was made the other morning at the
Bodine warehouse? That is what
W. M. Dinges wants to know.
Three bales ot good hay went off
with that gay and that bay horse,
and without the leave or the knowl
edge of the owner of the warehouse.
The call was made at seveu o'
clock in the morning. Mr. Dinges
had opened the house, and returned
to his home on an errand. As he
approached th warehouse on the
return, he heard a team and wagon
that seemed to be driving rapidly
away. He made haste to reach the
place, but hVd to pass through the
building and out on the other side
to get a view of the vanishing team.
He got out in time to see at some
distance, just turning east a gray
and bay horse, attached to a wagon
with three bales of hay in the wag
on. Mr. Dinges has since learned
from another man that the hay was
loaded from the warehouse into the
wagon, but he did not know, the
owner of the outfit. Mr. Dinges
wants to know, a well as an ex
planation of why the haste, and
why the hay was taken without
leave. ,

Always Keeps Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy in His House.
"We would not be without Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. It is kept on hand contin
ually in our home," says W. W. Kearney,
editor of the Independent, Lowry City, Mo.
That is just what every family should do.
When kept at hand ready for instant use, a
cold may be checked at the outset and cured
in much less time than after it has become
settled in the system. This remedy is also
without a peer for croup in children, and
will prevent the attack when given as soon
aa the 'child becomes hoarse, or even after
the croupy cough appears, which can only be
done when the remedy is kept at hand. For
