eventually recover the lost ground. I am
convinced that the trade of the country must
fallow on the great prosperity of the West.
In the West land that nine years ago was
waste Ip now good wheat land. Idaho and
Washington are now yielding big crops of
wheat from areas trat. when I was last
there, were yielding none. Fruit orchard,
too, have been planted everywhere, and the
fruit industry has increased enormouXy.
Generally speaking, all over the country
th H-e is reviving confidence, a feeling that
all v.U be well. It may take time, but I feel
mre that things have touched bottom."'
"What of the railroads of the West?"
"Splendidly constructed for tn most part
for what they have to do. But one thing
rtruck me. They will have to spend a lot
of money before long In double tracking. It
is quite usu.il to find a passenger train hli
up for freight cars. Thie applies to all the
roads of the Western States. It will be an
enormous expense to double track these
road."
J,Did you hear much complaint about lack
of employment?"
"Very little, and out West none at all.
What did -strike me was that men were re
ceiving high wages, although, of counee, the
cost of living is greater than in this country.
I saw no Indlcatlpn of want of employment
In the Wert. But the labor unions I found
everywhere very powerful."
"In your talk with representatives of the
various commercial classes, whatdid you find
the opinion on tariff revision ?"
"I don't think there will be much reduc
tion in their duties. The country is doing so
well under the present tariff that, although
they may reduce them a bit. it will not come
to much. That is the general view. I don't
think it will make any difference in this re
spect whichever side gets in at the Presiden
tial election. In fact. I may eay. from what
I hfard. all round, that I am certain that even
if Mr. Bryan were elected there would not
be much tariff alteration."
"Any tariff lesson there for this country?'
'So," said Major Bridges Webb, laughing.

CANDIDATES FOR OFFICE
Religious Belief Is of Great Impor
tance, Says C. X. Smith.
EUGENE, Or.. Nov. 11. (To the Ed
itor.) Seeing some comment in some
of the newspapers regarding President
elect Taft's religious views (he being a
Unitarian, as reported). I respectfully
take exception to the view presented
by one element or party, that the vo
ters have no business to consider the
religious affiliations or doctrines be
lieved in or advocated by a candidate
for a public office.
Such a course reminds one of the
ideas of old Queen Mary, of England
and Charles IX of France, also Leo X,
etc. This was largely their view, viz.,
that the people had no business to
doubt the fitness, theologically of the
candidate, faction, or policy in general,
favored by them. Where would such
a custom (?) lead? It practically

LOST VITALITY
"A merry heart doeth pood like a
medicine, but a broken spirit drieth
the bones." Proverbs 17-22.
The above quotation from the Old
Testament is worth thinking over. If
' you ate older physically than you are
in yenrs. "spirit broken," despondent,
run down and discouraged, take a hint
from the above text and act accord
ingly. Don t make up your mind to
look after your health bye-and-bye, for
rhat leads to never Action corrects
mistakes, dedpair and neglect increase
them. There is one little epigram that
if adhered to will make a man all that
he can ever hope to be in this world in
health and wealth it is to "not put of
until tomorrow that which should be
done today."
I take broken-down wrecks of hur
manity whether from past indiscre
tions or whatever cause, and build
them up as strong as their fellows.
I Make Men Strong
Enough to succeed in the battles of life, because skill and experience
have taught me how. Don't fool your time or money away on body
batteries or electric belts. Men have written me that their testimonials
were Jsed without their consent and were not true. I keep them on
file to protect this statement. You can get more electricity for a
pertny in a penny amusement parlor than Is contained in the biggest
body battery fake on the market. There are failures In all walks of
life. When a preacher goes wrong he sr.ys the church is composed of
hypocrites; when a lawyer is a failure he attributes It to anything but
a lack of brains. When some doctors are no good electricity streams
from every finger tip and every pore from the effects of a 75c tin but
ton girth (in pictures only) at so much per. Gentlemen, be sensible
and serious. If you get cured of an ailment you want it to be a real
cu-e and a lasting cure. If a doctor is able, to do this he is willing to
wait for his pay until you are cured. That is our plan, but It Is not the
