the strongest.

DEATHBLOW TO LEAGUE.
Officers of Referendum Org&nUa-,
- tipn Resign.
ALBANY. Or.. March 27.-SpecIal.)
With ita inception In the minds of unscru
pulous politicians, and after vainly en
deavorlng to foist Its narrow-minded
measures upon the people of Linn County,
the much-vaunted Referendum League to
day lost Its only semblance of a strong
hold In loyal old Linn. Tho two Albany
men who were advertised as officers of the
league announced today that they were
not In sympathy with the movement, and
wonld no longer permit their names to bo
used as a shield for the political move
ments of certain Marlon County politi
cians. At least this is the construction
placed upon their resignation by friends
of President J. J. Whitney and Secretary
T. J. Stiles, of the Referendum League.
Judge J. J. Whitney says that he had no
knowledge of a Referendum League until
it was announced in the" papers that he
was president of the new organization.
which savors so much of politics. The
Judge further added that ho usually liked
to toe Informed before he was harnessed
to a cart of this kind, and always felt
better if ho knew who the driver was. Mr.
Whitney has no sympathy with the ref
erendum movement, and refuses further
to permit his name to bo connected there
with. He today handed to T. J. Stiles, sec
retary of the Referendum League, his
resignation from the office of president,
which was not his seeking, and dropped
a similar resignation In the postofQce .ad
dressed to the Referendum League. Judge
Whitney's resignation reads as follows
To the Secretary and Members of the
Referendum League Gentlemen: I have
been Informed that at a meeting of some
of the referendum people recently held in
Albanv I was selected at said meetlns: to
act as president of a referendum league. I
was not at said meeting, neither had I any
knowledge of any kind of the holding of
fold . meeting. Neither was I consulted
upon the subject of whether or not I
would accent the presidency of a referen
dum league or any other kind of a league.
The adoption of the referendum portion
of our state constitution had my hearty
sunnort. and it is ritrht unaer our form oi
government to keep the power of con
trolling the administration of the affairs
of our government in the hands of the
people.
It would, in my opinion, be right to give
the voters of this Bta'te an opportunity to
vote and pass upon some of the appropria
tions made by tno last .Legislature.
I regret that my time is so engrossed In
other matters that I cannot rive this
referendum movement the care and at
tention that It rooulres. and for that rea
son I most respectfully tender to the
league my resignation.
J. J. WHITNEY.
Secretary T. J. utiles, of the Referen'
dum League, paid today that he had paid
UO aiicnuun iu isiu niuvcmcuu xic uuucu
that ho had no connection with the
league, because he had never accepted
the office of secretary, to which he was
elected unknown to him, that he had
never attended a meeting of the league,
nor would he have anything to do with It
Albany people are very much pleased
with the turn matters have taken. The
people of Linn County have never had
any sympathy with the anti-Fair agita
tion, and were generally opposed to hav
ing the fair name of old Llnn""besmlrched
by connection with such a movement.
Thanks to tho politicians of Marion Coun
ty, Linn County was made a scapegoat
for the narrow-minded movement. But
Linn ha now cleared her skirts of the
last vestige of the Referendum League.
Mayor W. K. Davis, on hearing of the
death of the referendum movement, so far
as Albany and Linn County are con
cerned, said today: "I have never had any
symmpathy with the movement: It Is
against tho Interests of the people. The
Lewis and Clark Fair will be the greatest
advertisement Oregon has had. Let us do
everything to help It; not throw on any
cold water."
The opinion of Mayor Davis is indicative
of the sentiment among- thinking people
In Linn County.

MARION'S DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR CON
GRESSIONAL HONORS
SALEM, Or.. March 27. (Spe
cial ) Many Marlon County
Democrats are talking of Wr. M.
Kaiser, of this city, as the
probable nominee of the Demo
cratic Congressional convention.
They believe he will have the
support of the Marion County
delegation without opposition

strength from other counties in

his nomination easy. His friends
believe that he would be as good
a candidate as the party could
put up, and they are not will
ing to admit yet that a Demo
cratic candidate would be run
ning a lost race.
Mr. Kaiser has been a prac
ticing attorney in this city for
-the last 20 years, and Is recog.
nlzed as one of Salem's ablest
lawyers. He was born In Marlon
County about 41 years ago, and

built and the work was done In such a
manner that the road will remain In good
condition for many years, with but slight
repairs. Gervais prides Itself upon hav
ing better Improved roads and streets
than any other town In the state. The re
sults were secured through the organlza,
tlop of a local Improvement league, whose
members voluntarily contributed the
money and labor necessary to "do the
work. So well satisfied are the people
with their Investment that some have al
ready volunteered to double their con
trlbutlons -for the purpose of extending
the area supplied with hard-surface roads,
The roads built near Liberty have also
proven so satisfactory that the work
will be continued by voluntary subscrip
tion.
Thorough drainage as a prerequisite to
a good permanent road is emphasized by
President Scott whenever he makes an
address. As County Judge of Marion
County he Impresses "upon road supervis
ors the necessity for the digging of ditches
In such a manner that the water wilL run
out. He ' says that In many Instances
where low places In the road had to be
filled in, the dirt from the fill was taken
from the ditch alongside, and as a conse
quence a deep place was left In the ditch
and In this water stood all 'Winter. The
water soaked through the road add soft
ened It so that the hard gravel surface
was entirely destroyed. In such a case.
says Judge Scott, the dirt for the fill
should be taken from some high place,
so that the bottom of the ditch will pre
sent a gradual decline toward an outlet.
When the water has been drained away,
there will be little trouble about getting
a solid foundation for a highway.
Road officers all over the county are
taking an Interest in the subject and are
co-operating with those citizens who are
desirous of building with private funds
roads for which the public road funds
are not sufficient. There is every prob.
ability that during the coming season
many miles of permanent rock-surfaced
roads will be built and that Marion
County will rank among the counties
having the best roads In the state.

Old-Fashloned Medicines for Catarrh
Xo Longer In Vogue.
For many years past the usual treat
ment for catarrh diseases was with
local douches, sprays. Inhalers and liquid
medicines composed principally of alcohol,
all of which" never cured but simply give
the temporary relief and stimulation.
A thorough cure can be made only by
the treatment which removes the catarrhal
poisons from the blood.
A new remedy, which meets the require
ments and which so far has been remark
ably successful . in curing catarrh is
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
These tablets act upon the blood and
mucous membrane only.
They can hardly be classed as a secret
patent medicine as they are composed of
such valuable remedies as blood root,
.Hydrastin. red gum of Eucalyptus tree
and similar antiseptics combined In tab
let form, which cure by eliminating from
the blood and mucous membrane the pols
ons of catarrh. -
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are large.
pleasant-tasting lozenges to be taken In
ternally, allowing them to dissolve in the
mouth, thus reaching the throat, trachea
and finally the stomach.
If desired they may also be dissolved
In water and used as a douche, In addi
tion to the internal use, but it Is not at
all necessary to use a douche; a few
of them dissolved' In the mouth dally
will be sufficient. However, when there
Is much stoppage of the nose a douche
made from these tablets will give .Im
mediate relief,, but the regular dally use
Internally will cure the whole catarrhal
trouble without resorting to the incon
venlence of a douche.
Dr. Bennett stated "that the Internal
treatment of catarrh by means of pleas
ant medicated tablets is rapidly taking
the place of douches, an'd local , applica
tions and further says that probably
the best and certainly the safest remedy at
present on the market Is the Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets, as no secret Is made of
their composition and all the really effl
dent catarrh remedies are concentrated
in this tablet."
Druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
at 50 cents for full-sized package, and
he will tell you there is no safer, more
palatable, efficient and convenient qatarrh
cure known to the trade.

Bearing-down pains, ovarian troubles, irritation and other symptoms of
female weakness wear on he nervous system, making sleepless nights and

which cured Mrs. Lewis.
With Wine of Cardui within your grasp to-day, health may be yours. You
