Republican .state organization during the

care more for party success than for
factional victory, are seeking the causa
of the defeat, andstrhen found, they pro
pose to do something to remedy It in fu
ture. Never before in Uia history 6f the
Btate bad the occasion been so auspicious 1
for Republican, victory as it was in the
campaign which- oloded a. Few weeks ago.
"Four Mr -of -iiBnr?rtrmrt m-AtAm-itY i

Issue of the" campaign that of territo
rial expansion the state, by reason of the
material benefits which It will reap from
the holding ot the Philippines, was nat
urally Republican this year,
ThL5ueck f fe. stte- S !
line with advanced National sentiment
was demonstrated in the great majority
whloh was given President McKInley
and the Republican Congressional candi
dates; but when It ca'rrie to determining
whether or net the state government,
with Its extensive patronage, should be
committed Into the hands of the Repub
llcan party, thousands of the same men
who voted for McKInley faced squarely
In the other direction, and voted against
J. M. Frlnk, the Republican Gubernato
rial nominee, casting their votes for Gov
ernor Rogers instead.
To discover the cause of this defection,
and to prevent its repetition, is now
the aim of all the sagacious and reason
ably unselfish party leaders throughout
the state. These men do not wish to ko
into the next campaign carrying a load
so heavy as to bring about defeat again.
They propose to apply the pruning knife,
and rid the party of some very undesirable-
branahes.
Causes of Fr ink's Defeat.
It is not difficult lo point out the
causes which brought about Mr. Frink's
defeat. They may be enumerated a fol
lows: First, that he was the candidate of an
alliance formed for purposes of. mutual
benefit 'between ex-Sehatdr John L. "Wil
son and ex-Governor John H. McGraw,
two ambitious politicians who nave been
successively repudiated by the people or
the state.
Second, Mr. Frink's record while a
member or the State Senate on railroad
and corporation legislation, wherein he
undoubtedly favored the railroads as
against the wheat-shippers of Eastern
Washington,
Third, a fair degree of satisfaction
among the people generally with Govern1
or Rogers' administration, which made
him acceptable when the ordinary voter
had finally concluded to "scratch" Mr.
Frlnk.
These causes have been enumerated In
the order of their Importance, and closer
examination into eaoh one of them will
demonstrate conclusively that they had a
TAtal effect of the election- In dls
ctiesing the first one It Is necessary to
go back a few years say to ISfi, the last
year of Mr. McGraw's administration as
Governor. That administration was not
popular. It a not necessary to discuss
why It was not so. Suffice It to say that
Governor McGraw in divers way,, alien
ated a considerable portion of his own
party, while the people at large looked
upon .him as the embodiment of machine
politics. The Unpopularity of his admin
istration had considerable to do with the
great fusion landslide of 1SSS, for even In
that year, when National polities con
stituted almost the .sole topic of pub
lie discussion, P. C. Sullivan, whom Mc
Graw forced upon the party as its Gu
bernatorial nominee, rail some 2000 votes
behind bis ticket.
Concerning Mr. Witeon little need b&
said. He was in Congress 10 years and
when President McKInley took the oath
of office In lteT, he found Wilson the sole
Bepublloan In Congress from "Washing
ton. Necessarily he" was given the con
trol of the Federal patronage, and in
stead of using it for the upbuilding of
the party aa a whole, he set to work to
create a personal machine, and used the
patronage. thus placed at bis disposal to
that end. This made him very unpopular
with his own party, and when he came up
for re-election In 19, he waa unceremo
niously turned down.
Prior to the campaign this year, Mr.
Wilson secured sufficient capital from
unknown, th.ou.gh strongly suspected
sources; to purchase the Post-Intelligencer,
the leading Republican paper of
the state, and through the columns of
this paper he brought out Mr. Frlnk as,
his candidate for Governor. At the same
time he formed an alliance wjth the
remnants ot the old McGraw ring In
King Cbunty. and secured the McGraw
support for Mr Frlnk.
Hovr Frinfe Came to Be Nominated.
The opposition to Messrs. Wilson, and Mc
Graw brought out, as their candidate for i
Governor Mayor Humes, of Seattle, who '
probably has a larger personal following
than any other politician In the state.
With both Gubernatorial candidates living
In King County, it became necessary to
settle the fight In the primaries of that
county. It hadbeeh practically conceded ,
by the party throughout the slate that ,
King Ceanty could name the Governor
provided the county brought a solid dele
gatlon to the state convention for some
given candidate.
, The battle raged royally- and in the
few weeks before the primaries the Post
InteHIgeacer, guided and directed by Wil
son, opened Its batteries of mud, on the
Humes forces, aftd accused them of near
ly ever orlroe la the political calendar.
Che xlat of the paper's deminlcatloa, i
however, was that Mayor Humes waa the i
candidate of Levi Anktny, the weiSknown
Senatorial candidate from Walla Walla.
The supporters of Humes were accused
of belnjr in Mr, Ankenv'a oav. and mm
high in tha councils -of the party and
personally asoye reproach, were reckless
ly styl.ed "gratters.' The result of all
this was that Ihe "Prink forces won by a
aarrbw margin In the Republican County
Coaventloa. Intense uproar and disorder
markta the 'deliberations" of that "body,
but finally out of the tumult Wilson, and
M&Graw emerged, bearing aloft the stand
ard of vietttry. They secured a feblld and
Instructed delegation to the staler conven
tion for Mr. Frlnk, leaving: behlsd theaa.
however, a. trail of almost Indescribable
bitterness, net only among the politicians
bat extending down int6 the rank and file
as wett. A weak but ineffectual attempt1
wa ade to defeat Mrv Frink Ja the
state convention, but with Humes shorn,
of asy heme support, the opposition to
the WUsoa-McGraw machine was unable
te unite upon a candidate. Friflfc waa
nominated by acclamation.
Roce-rs Alo Had s Bitter Fight.
Shortly thereafter. Governor Rogers "was. J
reaerataated by the Fuslonists. He lsov
had a Dltter fight, hut tender the dlrcctlSai
of Seatr Turner his friends xrr1e4 the J
day. Rogers was nominated in
-con-
vestloa consisting of almost lf
a!e4
galea. -The two-thirds rule was aadfrteaYJ
aad after Rogers won with that handicap
against hfea, his enemies, or the great a-4
jonlty of thaia at least, aubniitted, and
voted tor him at the polls.

'dreds f& Bepubacans were &okig $o vote

orators, appealing to ancient fprejumcc,
raised the cry TJf "McGrawwUsea ring?
with great effect. It was pointed out that
Mr. Prink won she patronage at his
disposal Ttfsulda used to elect Mr. Vrllson
, Ko tbe Senate two years Jience. The fact
; ' that Mr. "McGraw would also be a potent
; factor In the administration In case Frink
- Tahoaia be elected, "was usea, greauy 10
the disadvantage of the lteoubiican nomi- 1
nee.
On

caused .Mr. Frink to lose hundreds of
voles among the Tarmers In Eastern
Washington. The Republicans polled the
state, discovered that Mr. McKInley
would have an overwhelming majority,
and rested -content. They -did not believe
It possible that thousands of Republicans
would vote against Mr. -Frink, In sufficient
number to defeat him, although -admitting
that he would run behind his ticket.
When, the votes were, counted, however,
It was found that the Republican ma
jority was in the neighborhood of 12 000
for McKInley, while Rogers had won by
a majority of about 2000. The result was
& surnrlse and a shock to the Frlnk forces.
It was greeted with Ill-concealed delight,
however, by many leading Republicans
throughout the state, who see In it the
end of Sir. Wilson and Incidentally of
34r McGraw. This class- of men believe
xaai iner unreal or. jar. zrjnfc. wm tun
In great ultimate good to the Republican
party, although the loss of the Governor
ship in a year otherwise fraught with
magnificent party victory, is, to say the
least, somewhat humiliating.
Bomoihinr of Successful Candidate.
A word concerning Governor Rogers:
Four years ago he was a Mid-Road Popu-
llst oi the type. Prior to his nom
lhatlon for Governor he bad written a
book entitled the "irrepressible Conflict,"
in which he made the most startling
declarations, and advocated the wildest
theories .known to the- tllsclples of the
Omaha piatforhj. His election was great
ly feared at that time by the conserva
tive business element of the state. It was
believed that his being placed at the
head of the stats government Wou3d..drIve
capital away and reduce Washington to a
level with Kansas under LieweUlng or ,
Colorado under ".Bloody Bridles" Walte,
and whtn he finally did win, business men
trembled for the fu'ttifv
A r-le of the great responsibility rest
lm? Upon him. however, obviously had a
sobering effect, and not once during hlsM
term has he attempted to put any of his
wild Popullstlc Ideas into actual effect.
He even dlsc&uraged" the passing of a
bill establishing that dearest Popullstlc
dream, the initiative and. referendum,
during the 'session of IS91T, and mainly
through his Influence it waa defeated.
Governor Rogers' administration on the
whole has been moderately satisfactory.
He is not a good judge of character,
and some of the men with whom he has
surrounded himself have neither the con
fidence nor the respect of the people,
but through It alt he has generally been
given credit ot possessing honest inten
tions and of being endowed with honest
Instincts. From a "howling Populist" he
has been transformed Into a conservative
Democrat, and people of every class view
"four more years of Rogers" with equani
mity. Fntnre of the Republican Party.
Now, as to the future of the Republi
can party in the state. If the present
factional fight between Mr. Wilson and
Mr. Ankeny continues, it does not requirb
a prophet to foretell that the next leg
islature that Is, the one which assembles
In 1903 will be Democratic; and that it
will re-elect Senator Turner. The bit
terness of this Ankeny-Wllson fight was
shown In the 'elcctldn of holdover State
Senators thlsyear. In Walla Walla County,
where Mr. Ankenyts rule is supreme, the
Wilson men, under cover of a temperance
fight, defeated Jacob Bete, who. if elect
ed. Would have voted two years hence fbr
Mr. Anfceny. In Spokane County the anti
Wilson men defeated two State Senators
who were pledged to Mr. Wilson. In this
maimer the Democrats gained three hold
overs In districts that ought to bs and
which are Republican It is easy to see
where this sort of thing will end two
years hence, when every legislator elected
will have a vote on the Senatorshlp.
Already the WHson-Ankeny fight Is
shaping Itself on practically the same
lines. Mr. Wllsoh has tacitly announced
that he personally Will not b6 a candi
date for the place, but he Is encouraging
the aspirations of Charles Sweeney, one of
his 'wealthy supporters In Spokane Coun
ty, and declares, that he will fight Mr.
Ankeny to the bitter end. It Is probable
that he will bring out a candidate in King
County In order to capture tho organiza
tion here by an appeal to local senti
ment To offset this, the Ankeny men
will doubtless spring a candidate for
Congress In Seattle, aud fight the battle
on those lines In King County. King
County's desire for representation in Con
gress was shown this year, when, despite
a heavy majority for McKInley, It -gave
J. T. Ronald, one of the Democratic nom
inees fpr Cpnsress. & small majority, and
cut Mr. Cushman, the Tacoma Republican
candidate.
Mr. Ahkeny lias a stroifg organisation
In every, county in the state, and, ac
cording to present outlook, will capture
the organization two year hence. There
is very little prejudice against his Sena
torial aspirations among the" rank and
file, although th.e Wilson men, by making
alight against his nominees., were he to
capture the party organization, might do
Inestimable damage. No party can suc
ceed that Is factlonally torn and divided.
Many Republicans earnestly hope that
111 two years the party can be rid of
quarrels, although how It will be done is
difficult to .foretell.

TO TAKE ASSESSORS' PLACES.
Bill to Make Assessment by District
Oillcers Another N"cvr Measure.
OREGON CITY, Nov. 20. Senator
George C. Browncll has prepared a bill
to be Introduced at the next session of
the Legislature, providing for the election
of district assessors In the various coun
ties, to take the places of the present
County Assessors.
The bill provides that these Assessors
shall be elected at the general eioctfon
ln June, at the same time othe? county
officers are elected; also that at the meet
ing of the County Court in January, and
whenever thereafter it shall be deemed
advisable, as many assessment districts
within each county as the County Court
shall deem convenient, necessary and
proper, shall be established. The appoint
ment of officers shall also be left to the
discretion of the court. District Asses
sors shall possess the same power, au
thority and prerogatives, and perform the
same duties, as are now exercised and
performed by the County Assessors. The
bill--will require that fte District Asses
sor be elected Tor 4 term ot two years,
and that his term ot office shall begin
oa the first Monday In January. The rea
son that the bill provides for the elec
tlcm of district instead ot precinct As
sessors is done so that the act will con
form with the requirements of the state
constitution.
Senator Brownell has also prepared a
bill relating to the exemption of the earn
ings of judgment creditors. This measure
will provide that the earnings of a judg
ment creditor for personal services, per
formed by such debtor at any time within
30 days next preceding the service of an
attachment or garnishment of said earn
ings shall not be included In the. Judg
ment that may be rendered in such ac
tion against said debtor, when it shall be
made to appear by the affidavit of such
judgment debtor, or otherwise, that such
earnings are necessary for the use of the
family guDported wholly or partly by the
labor of said debtor.
KEW MAP OF OREdOI?,

SALEM, Or., Nov, 20. Secretary of State
F. "1. Dunuar has published a map of the
Btate of Oregon showing all the counties
and giving condensed statistics regarding
each, for the year 1S9S. The Cutllne of the1
map Is printed in blue, the names of the
counties in red, and the table of statistics
printed on each county In black. The
figures show the number of acres of tillable-
land In each county, the number of
acres of nontlllable land, the mlls of
railroad bed, the railroad stock, telegraph
and telephone line's, shares of stock, the
number of horses and mules, ca,ttle,
6heep, goats, and 6 Wine, together with
the value of each In total and the value
per acre, per mile, and per hend. The
purpose ot the map is to show at a glance
the relative locations of the counties; and
the comparative sizes, the dlffereht pro
portions of tillable and nontlllable land
and the comparative valuations. Similar
taaps will be published covering the sta
tistics for 1S39 and, perhaps, later o'a for
the year 1900. The reports- from the sev

In January. On the whole the map makes,
a Very Interesting showing, and forcibly
bresents the need of some provision for
the equalization at assessments.

Wfiat a Woman of Prominence
In the Medical World Has
to Say About Her Sex.
What Afe Women's Rights?
In all ages ot the world, poets, scientists,
and men ot orominenc iiave looked with
enthusiasm often akin to reverence usoa
woman; but It is only within the last few
years that she has begun to assume her
rlght place, not only in society, but with
the world In general. Why so d&slrSbie
an end should havo been so long delayed
If IS difficult to understand, but that- it
bas at last comet is certainly- eause for
gratitude. In 'her social sphere, in her
mental development, and especially la
her physical Improvement, woman has
shqwn wonderful advancement,, aad such
aa astonishes the world,
Th6y who have made a careful lnYeatl
gauon tell us that heathen women are
much mora able to endure pain than are
the Yfomen of civilization, but civilised
women, would resent the charee thai they
,aro weaker because they are civilized,

Let us consider for a moment the .possi
bilities which present themselves to- every
woman. When the body Is healthy,
beauty Is certain to appear, even In feat
ures and forms once plain; Indeed, It Is
the only known way to become beauti
ful, and all nrenaratlons. nowders and
places are contemptible delusions. With
health and beauty to all their attractive
ness a new life dawns.
ENJOYMENT BEGINS",
Ahd all the luxurious attendants of a
healthy body come forth. The maiden
feels the glorious possibilities ot life; tha
eur ot maternity and tha Joys ot a family.
All this is not only woman's privilege, it
Is her duty, and It, embodies the highest
definition of "Woman's Rights."
After enumerating; many of- the bless
ings that follow perfect health, the speak
er continued.
All .these desirable things can be
accomplished, but in. one way only. The
Creator has given both woman and man
perfect physical forms, -and each Is con-
i stltutionallv equal to all natural demands.
it is a mistaken and pernicious notion 1
that one is strong and the- other weak.
No curse was pronounded upon woman

A few weeks ago I received a call from
a charming lady whose earnest face clear
ly showed that she desired advice and
assistance. Upon questioning her. she
stated that she believed she was suffering
from a paralyzed liver, and wished to
know If I could In any 'way aid her recov
ery. Now, imperfect as her statement
was in regard to the disease which
troubled her, there !s no doubt that
THOUSANDS OF WOMEN"
Are suffering today from similar troubles,
-who do not recognise their cause so nearly
as this lady did. Paralysis means death
of the member paralyzed, and torpidity of
the Irvelf is the flfst stage of Its dlssOlu-

any woman, for a torpid ahd diseased
