Oregon Congressman Likes
Hard Work of Committee-Room
Duties.
SITS AMONG THE LEADERS
Makes I'ortiinate Drawius for Scat.
Speaks in Tornis oT Praise for
Olher Members of Delegation.
Talks Matters Political.
SALEM, Or., Feb. 10. (Special.) For
the purpose of writing his name In the
registration books of Marlon County, as
required by the Oregon registration law,
Congressman V. C. Hawley arrived in
fialem today. Ho will return to Washing
ton Wednesday evening.
Like the other members of the Oregon
delegation, he thinks' the law should be
amended so as to permit a Senator or
Congressman to register without crossing
the continent twice and losing two weeks
of time from his post of duty.
"There is plenty of hard work in being
a Congressman, but I am accustomed to
hard work and like it." said Mr. Hawley,
this evening, when discussing affairs at
Washington. "Usually a new Congress
man is placed upon what might be called
dead' committees, which have no work to
do. but I was fortunate in securing a
place on two very active committees, on
Agriculture and Claims. To the Commit
tee on Agriculture are referred all mat
ters relative to the Department of Agri
culture, a department that is every year
becoming more important to the indus
trial ait'airs of the Nation. That the work
of the committee is not small may be
judged from the fact that we hold two
sessions of two hours each, every day.
The Committee on Claims must invest
igate and report upon nil claims against
Hie Government referred to it. and, as
every one knows, these claims are
numerous.
Senntor Fulton Popular.
"In the selection of seats in the House
of Representatievs I was fortunate in
securing a plare close to the .Republican
leaders, Dalzeil. Payne and Tawney. This
enabled me to keen in close touch with
what is going on, to learn the methods
of doing business and to get acquainted
with Influential members of the House.
All t"hese circumstances help, for every
Congressman must begin at the bottom
and work his way up.
"The Oregon delegation has been for
tunate all around on committees. Senator
Fulton is very popular and, as one of the
Senators who made committee assign
ments, was able to secure good places for
Senator Bourne, who was a new Sena
tor. It is very rare for a Senator to make
as rapid progress as Fulton has. I have
frequently heard it remarked that he is
the ablest Senator from the Pacific Coast.
Congressman Ellis' is in good position for
advancement because of his wide
acquaintance, formed during previous
t-Tvice in the House.
"One of the most important of recent
events in Congress was the announcement
that tariff revision will be undertaken im
mediately after election. While I be
lieve in a protective tariff, I also believe
in revision- of schedules from time to time,
net changing conditions may require. The
tariff should protect the American laborer
and also the American manufacturer to
the extent of a reasonable profit. When
the tariff protects the manufacturer in
the enjoyment of an exorbitant profit, it
should ba reduced.
Harbor Bill Must AValt.
"As already reported in the press
dispatches, it Is quite certain that
there will be no rivers and harbors
bill at tnis session for the reason that
tlfere was an S0,000,000-blll passed at
the last session. My bill appropriating;
$300,000 for state and Federal owner
ship of locks at Oregon City is in the
hands of the rivers and harbors com
mittee and will probably be held until
t lie next Nossion of this Gongress,
when we hope to get the appropria
tion." Mr. HaWley says that in Washington
the opinion is that the Republican
presidential nomination is still "Up in
the air." Judging ' by popular feeling
in. the East, Roosevelt could have been
re-elected by an overwhelming; ma
jority if he had not determined not
to be a candidate again. On the status
of cho Cleeton appointment, Mr. Haw
ley is uninformed, for he left Wash
ington before the other members of
the delegation decided to recommend
Mr. Cleeton.

'CLOSED SHOP" DEMANDED BY
UNIONS AT BALLARD.
Fight to Finish, Declare Unions.
Situation Said to Be so Critical
Men Out of Woik Denied Credit.
SEATTLE. Wash..--Feb. 10. (Special.)
Three Ballard shingle mills inaugurated
a lockout against union men this morn

Company mill was practically closed.
Two other mills continued to run, but
with forces so greatly reduced as to
make it little use.
The union men declare that the fight
is on to a finish, and say that not a mill
will run with any degree of success un
til they' win. On the other hand the
millownefs, assert that they will have
all the men needed in the morning.
The strike today is the result of a
meeting held Saturday' night by the
union, resulting in all mills employf.ig
non-union labor or paying union men the
reduced JJcale being declared unfair.
At Bcxiffrd the situation Is so critical
that tradesmen have come to.- an agree
ment not to extend credit to the men
out of work.

District Attorney Lomax Ends
. All Gambling Within an ;
Hour's -Notice.
CITY'S INCOME CUT $10,000
Absence of Fines Collected From
Gamblers Necessitates Drawing
' on Cash Balance Action of
Authorities Is a Surprise.
BAKER CITY, Or., Feb. 10. (Special.)
District Attorney Lomax this afternoon
went Mayor Jones one better and issued
an order closing all gambling immedi
ately. The order was not made public
until it appeared in the Evening Herald
at 4 o'clock and by 6 o'clock the lid was
on tight.
The order o'f the District Attorney was
a great surprise, as it was thought that
no further action would be taken, after
the order of Mayor Johns closing gam
bling on March 1.
Attorney Lomax quoted that section of
the law which prohibits gambling, and
said that the citizens had brought evi
dence before 'him that the law was being
violated, and unless all gambling ceased
immediately, prosecutions wduld follow.
He stated that several citizens had as
sisted him. in securing the evidence, but
since the Mayor. had given the gamblers
until March 1 to vacate they thought it
only just that the gamblers should be
given a warning and be allowed to re
move their paraphernalia.
The lid is on tight and the prediction
is made that it will not be removed again.
The city treasury derived-a revenue of
about 10.000 last year from gambling. In
making up the budget of expenses for this
year the Council figured on a like amount
this year, and now the city must draw
on its surplus cash to pay current expenses.
HIGH TIME ENDS IN DEATH
Yoman of Tenderloin Killed on Car
in Strange Manner.
NEW YORK, Feb. 10. A night-spent
in hilarity by three women and three
men ended early today in a tragedy,
when one qf the women, known as
"Queenle." but who is said to be Mrs.
Annie Conning, of Delaware, was shot
to death In a trolley car on Second
avenue.
Mabel Couzzie confessed this afternoon
that a shot accidentally fired from a
pistol in her muff killed "Queenle," but
the police authorities are of the opinion
that ah element of mystery still hangs
over the case. In the disappearance of
the men of the party, who have not
been seen since the shooting took place.
The Couzzie woman has been held with
out ball to await the Coroner's inquest,
and Rose McGuire, who also was in the
party, is being detained as a witness.
The story told by the Couzzie woman
was a plausible one. The women and
men had met at a tenderloin resort,
where they drank for a while, and after
ward went to Chinatown. One of the
men. who had been drinking, had a re
volver, which he asked the Couzzie wom
an to keep for him. She put it in her
muff, and the party started uptown on
a trolley car. All were hilarious, and
laughed and joked with several of the
passengers. An Italian resented remarks
made to him, and a scuffl.e ensued. In
the mix-up the revolver exploded and
Queenle" fell dead. The revolver
dropped to the floor and one of the men
picked It up and with his two compan
ions fled.

CURES
9 SHEUMATISM
The aclies and pain9 of Rheumatism are only symptoms which may be
scattered or relieved with liniments, plasters, blisters, et,c, or quieted with
opiates. As soon, however, as the treatment is left off or there is any
exposure to dampness or cold, or an attack of indigestion, or other physical
irregularity, the aggravating pains, swollen joints and tender places on the
flesh return, and the sufferer finds that he has merely checked the symptoms,
while the real cause remained in the blood. Rheumatism is due to a too
acid condition of the blood, brought on by indigestion, chronic constipation,
weak kidneys, and a general sluggish condition of the system. This acid
circulating in the blood produces the pains, aches, and other disagreeable
symptoms of Rheumatism. S. S. S., a purely vegetable remedy, cures
Rheumatism by going down into the circulation and driving out the cause
and making this life-stream pure, rich and healthy. When the blood has
been cleansed of the irritating, pain-producing acids by S. S. S., the pains
and aches cease, the muscles become soft and pliable, the health is built up,
and Rheumatism completely and permanently cured. Book on Rheumatism
and any medical advice free to all who write.
THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA,
The children's laxative Cascarets.
Candy tablets, pleasant to take,
gentle in their effects. Throw
out the old-time physics.
Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the physic that mother insisted on once in a while
-rxastor oil, salts or cathartics.
How you hated them. How you fought against taking them.
How you dreaded their after-effects.
That was all wrong, but then nobody knew better.
With our children it's different.
They belong to the day of the gentle in medicine. The day
of harsh physics is over.
We don't force the bowels now; we coax them.
We have no dreaded after-effects.
And the dose is a candy tablet.
Mothers who cling to the old form of physic simply don't
know what they do.
The children's revolt is well-founded.
Their tender bowels are harmed by them.
The modern way is to give a gentle laxative, and to give it
more frequently. To keep the bowels always active.
The best method is Cascarets. One-half a tablet, as often as
needed, does more than anything else to keep a child well
Cascarets are candy tablets. They are sold by all druggists,
but never in bulk. Be sure you get. the genuine, with CC C on
every tablet . The price is 50c, 25c and
