PLEA FOR M'BRIDE Warburton Says His Policy Must Be Supported, ROUSING MEETING AT WILBUR Present Method of Railroad Taxation Vigorously AsMalled Denounced jib VIcJonn and Pnerlle Remarks of. Senator Warmly Received. "WILBUR. "Wash.,' Oct. 21. (Special.) Governor McBride and Senator Warbur ton were given a reception at Wilbur to night that surpassed even the demonstra tion at Davenport last .night. Over 500 people -wedged themselves intoG. A. R. Hall and stretched in a line out to the sidewalk. Farmers attended the meeting for several miles around. The meeting was enthusiastic as vrcll as well attended. Time and again the speakers were inter rupted -with hearty cheering. E. Hay. chairman of the Republican, county committee, presided over the meeting. Before the principal speakers were Introduced, George E. Smith and J. E. Howard, the Republican candidates for the Legislature, spoke briefly and pledged themselves to support the railroad .policy of Governor McBride. Their speeches were the signals for much enthusiasm. Senator Warburton was the next speak er. He emphasized strongly the duty of Republican legislators to carry out the pledges of the state platform. "I Would support rio candidate for the Legislature." said Senator Warburton, "whom I believed would be guilty of party treachery." Senator Warburton devoted some time to discussing the relative 'merits of an elective and an appointive railroad com mission, and argued that the latter Is much preferable. He then assailed vigor ously the method of taxing railroad prop erty in this state, declaring that it is both vicious and puerile. The railroads In this state, he declared, are not paying more than one-tenth of the taxes they ought to pay. He cited many inequalities In railroad taxation, particularly in the large cities of the state. While Senator Warburton touched on no particularly new points, his exposition of the tax ques tion was warmly received. Governor McBride was given a most en thusiastic reception. He thanked the au dience, and then plunged at once into his speech, following closely on the lines of. previous addresses. McBride and Warburton speak at Cres ton tomorrow afternoon, and at Almira tomorrow night. They then go to Rltz ville and Yakima. STOLE BLOODED BUCKS. Man Is Arrested With Herd In His FoHHCSfilon.

KLAMATH FALLS, Or.. Oct 2L-(Spe-clal.) Klamath County's initial, fair, which began here Thursday and closed Saturday, was a success beyond all ex pectations. For many "weeks work had progressed in preparing the race track and erecting the amphitheater and exhi bition hall. A better mile track or more suitable grounds could not be found any where. In size, the crowd which has been In attendance during the past three days would do credit to a county with five times the population of Klamath. Fair visitors, added to tho larco and steady Influx of timber-seekers and other in vestors, have kept the sleeping quarters of the hotels overflowing, and many have been accommodated by private houses, others finding lodging in barns and tents. The exhibits at tha fair were not nu merous, but of a quality that surprised even residents of the county. The display of fruit and vegetables was especially Une. People who have attended the state fairs on the Coast and In the East have expressed themselves o the effect that Klamath's collection of apples, pears, peaches, prunes, plums, potatoes, cab bage, etc., surpassed In size and other points of excellence any exhibits of tha kind "they had ever seen.

Each afternoon from 600 to 800 people witnessed the races. Everybody with a fast horse was on hancfc and those with out any were plebeians and out of luck. Though the time madewa3 not a world beater, there were numerous entries and plenty of excitement, pcol-sellers doing a lively business. The signal success of the fair has aroused general Interest' and a determina tion to launch Hie enterprise next year on a more elaborate scale. Even many who were Indiffr-rent to the project have grown actively Interested. WASHINGTON BOY HONORED. Presidio Battery Named After Lieu tenant Bpatclle. OLYMPIA, Wash., Oct. 21.

Cabling from Pekln, the correspondent there of the Times says he has Just returned from a two months' tour of Manchuria and an inspection of the Russian railroad. He describes the results of the energy which, within five years, has transformed Manchuria Into what Is virtually a Russian province, and points out the privilege granted Russia of guarding the Manchurlan Railroad that 'will enable her to continue her effective occupation after the nominal evacuation of the country. At Hallar, Harbin, Hantaholgu, Pro granltchnaia, and many other places, con tinues the correspondent, there are now thriving Russian towns or settlements with all modern Improvements. Man churia Is absolutely dominated by Rus sia; all the officials arc absolutely In her power, and she controls all the waterways, while Manchuria Is disarmed. . There are now no railroad guards, goes on the representative of the Times. They are called significantly frontier guards, and will number 30,000 men, or whatever greater number Russia' thinks fit They will be distributed along the railroad; guardhouses are already built for them every three miles, and there are large barracks In every Important center. Thus .Russia will be more Immovably Installed than before the evacuation, as the rail road passes the most Important and rich est cities of the threo provinces. In al most every case, evacuation will simply mean the marching of the soldiers a 3hort distance farther to Russian concessions or to the railroad, where permanent quar ters have been provided, and from where the cities can, in -the future, be struck im mediately and without resistance. The Times In rather an alarmist edi torial article on the foregoing dispatch says it Is futile to talk of Russia's bad faith In the seizure of Manchuria. She but acted according to her traditions, though on a more audacious and grander scale th3n usual. She is rapidly acquir ing North Persia by similar means, and Loid Cranbourne's recent statement-shows that she is disposed to similar projects In Afghanistan If Great Britain gives her an opportunity. "It is by the free U03 of the capital," says the Times, "that Russia has been compelled to raise abroad that she Is at taining such great political results. Shall we'hesltate to use the capital we possess In abundance to exclude her from the regions where her presence wpuld be a serious menace, as Captain Mahan has lately shown, to our whole power la the East?" ! PRAISES REFORM SCHOOL SAX. WHITE,. OF BAKER CITY, IN SPECTED INSTITUTION SUNDAY. "Is Worth a Thousand Normal J Schools," Says He Finds Boys Much Improved In Their Way. SALEM, Oct. 21. (Special.) "The Ore gon Stnie Reform School la one of the most Important of the state institutions, and ! believe 'it Is the most useful," said District Attorney Sam White, of Baker City, yesterday. Mr. White spent last Sunday at the Reform School, inspecting the different departments, and learning of the work done at the school. In the evening he delivered a brief address be fore the boys, and found them a very at tentive and appreciative audience. "The State Reform School Is worth a thousand Normal Schools," Mr. White continued. "It teaches the boys who need discipline and training which they cannot get in their homes, because their parents cannot control them. It takes the idle and vi cious boy off the streets and sets him to work where he cultivates both mind and Qy- Jt -eacnes nim a useful occupation. and starts hlm on a better road than that which he has been traveling. The Reform School is one institution with which the j Legislature should deal liberally." Finds Boys Much Improved. Mr. White found several boy3 at the Re- iorm School concerning whose past lives he had soma knowledge by reason of his having prosecuted them for the offenses which led to their commitment to that in stitution. Some of these boys Mr. White learned are already much improved Jn their ways, and certainly In appearance. Boys whose careless and Indolent habits were leaving their Imprint upon every fea ture .and movement have so changed In their appearance under the discipline of the school that Mr. White scarcely recognized them. He found that they are happy In their, new home. The rule of early to bed and early to rise, four hours' work, four hours' study and three hours' play keeps them so busy that they have no time nor opportunity to get into mis chief. One boy, now well along In his 'teens, asked permission from the Super intendent to speak with Mr. White, and In the conversation which followed ho thanked, the District Attorney most heart ily for sending him to the Reform School. "It was the best thing that could have happened to me," he said. "If I had been left to go on as I had started, I would have led a life of crime. I am going to try to be an honorable man." As Indicated in what Mr. White has said on the subject of the State Reform School, that Institution is intended as a place for the restraint, education and discipline of incorrigible youths. There 'are now about 125 boys in the school, from 9 years old up to 19. They get up every morning at 5:30 o'clock, put In half the day at study and the other half at work, with from two to three hours a day for play on the grounds or for reading In the library. Jn the schoolroom they study the common-school branches. In the Industrial department they learn tailoring, shoemaking, carpen try, steam' engineering, blacksmlthing, farming, cooking, dairying, etc. The boys are. assigned to work In the different de partments under competent Instructors, and are required to do their work' well. To keep them busy 13 one of the main ob jects, and this is so far accomplished that when they go to bed at 8 o'clock they are ready to go to sleep. Additional Buildings Needed. The fire at the Reform School last Win ter will make new buildings necessary for the industrial department At present the tailoring and shoemaking shops are crowded Into the reading-room, and the heating and lighting plant is housed in temporary quarters. It will be remem bered that the Industrial building stood hear the main building, and when the former caught fire the fire protection was at once cut off, and It was only by the heroic efforts of the boys that the main building was saved. Superintendent Bick ers expects to recommend that a new In dustrial building be erected at the foot.of the Reform School hill, about 500, feet from the main building, and that a new powerhouse be erected near the same place. The. Industrial building will cost about $25,000, and the powerhouse, Includ ing the water rights to furnish the power, about the same amount He will recom mend that the remains of the old Indus trial building be used in the construction of a cottage, and that about $8000 be ap propriated for this purpose. In order to secure better fire protection, he will rec ommend that $10,000 be appropriated for the construction of a large reservoir on the summit of a hill above the Reform School, and that this be connected with the Reform School, Mute School and Asy lum Farm, so as to provide fire protec tion and a water supply to all of these Institutions. Tlyj new power-works will furnish electric light and power for the Reform School, Mute School and Asylum Farm. Tho purpose in having the old Industrial building turned into a cottage is to make it possible to adopt the family system oi. conducting the institution. Under, tho proposed arrangement the entire number of boys would be divided into three fam ilies of about 40 each. One family would be kept at the main building, one in the cottage now used for officers' quarters, and one in the new cottage. The officers' quarters would be removed from the cot tage to the main building. The object in dividing the boys Into families Is to sep arate them according to ages and degrees of character, so that the young and less unruly boys may not associate with the older and more vicious boys. Affairs of School Moving Smoothly. The affairs of the State Reform School have gone very smoothly during the last two years.

Several years back I v?as a very different woman from what I am to day, and 1 can thank Wine of Cardui for the blessed change. At that time 1 was suffering from inflammation which caused me intense pains every month. It robbed me of the happiness of my life and made me blue and disheartened. I tried everything I could think of and finally made up my mind there was no relief for me. One day amember of our coancil called and found me in bed. I told her ray troubles and she said at once, 'Why don't you take Wine of Cartlui? That is a sure cure for female trouble." She then went on to tell me how she had suffered from ulcer ation and ovarian trouble and had been cured through this medicine. It sounded like a'fairy tale to me. 1 had read of it but had lost all faith in medicine. She, however, went to the drug store, bought me a bottle and ?ave me my first dose, saving, "If it doesn't cure you I will pay for it." felt encouraged and full or hope. But fine as my hopes were the re ality was better. In three days 1 had found a great change. 1 kept up the treatment faithfully for nearly four months, kept im proving anit wa3 finally entirely wefl.

This is over six years ago, but I have had no relapse and have used no other medicine. If at times I feel worn ou?or languid I just take a few doses of Wine of Cardui and I am all right once more. A number of my friends who have seen my remarkable recovery have been using this medicine since I was cured, but I do not remember one who feels disappointed. In fact we do not know of anything that will take its place. It seems especially adapted for weak and sick wouien, troubled with irregular or painful menstruation, leucorrhoea. ulceration or inflam mation.
