A meeting of members of the bench snd bar In honor of sx-Oovernor Lord was held at the Courthouse yesterday afternoon, about 150 attorneys ana judges being present. H. IL ISorthup dedlvered a short address. In which he told of ex-Oovernor Lord's life and work. Attorney Northup was a close naraonal associate of Mr. Lord. He said: T . . k.vai V air time to fall. And flowers to wtthsr at the north wind's breath: a ...H , n .. . nut ell. niiin km ell aeaeons for thine own, u, Diatn!" And today vre are called to mourn our most dLstinsnlshsd citizen: ons who cams more than ) years ago. comparatively aa a young man.and who boy hla inuustry. en ergy, courage and talent, nas won iur one self a plscs on ons or tne ongn.ee. of ths history of our state. Jud.e Lord was born in Delaware in IAS, and graduated from Fairfield college In New Tork. In 1S40. Hs ehos ths law for hla profeealon. and oommenced tta atudy. But soon ths gsge of battle was thrown down by tha south, ana. aunougn born and reared In a slave atata, ha ac cepted that challenge and became a soldier for ths Union. Hs fought with gsllantry In many of the great battles of the war. and at Ua close was mustered out aa Major of hla regiment, a regiment er cavalry. Ha raaumed tha study of tha law, attend Ins ths law achool at Albany. N. T.. than reesrded as one of ths best In the land. Hut the country had kept Its eye on this young man. and tha offer waa mads to him of a second llsutenancy in ths regular Army. This orfsr he accepted. Asslgnsd to vsrloua stations, he was finally sent ta tbs fllntl location of Alaska. V Soon wsarylng of tha monotony of the Ufa, and feeling that there waa something better for him than a ststlcm In a wild rs glon as Alaska then was, hs rsslgned and made hla way to Oregon. Here. In conneo- tlon with Colonel Knight, hs opensd a 1' office and commenced the practice of his profession la Balem. Tha first matter that I recall that brought him to tha attention of the bi and of the public waa a eass that waa tried In the Tua in which aa effort was made by soma parties to recover the Courthuuss block and perhape aom other property in Salem. He wss employed by th County or Marlon, and tha causa waa tried In tha Inlted States Court bsfors Judge Doady. The case was hotly conteated. Tna defenae was so ably managsd that th county came off with flying colors. This brought Judgs Lord Into very favorable ootlca eloon after tha law was paaaed making tha Supreme Court a tribunal separata from the Circuit Courts of the county, and In tha election In 180 ha waa made ons of tha fhtpreme Judges. He continued on ths bench until 1S0O. when he waa elected tiovernor. At tha aspiration of bla term b was ap pointed Mlnlrter Plenipotentiary to tha Ar asntlna Rerubllc. On resigning from thla position, hs eama to bla home and resuaned the practice of law la a desultory manner. H did sot eaeh the practice, but was assoclatsd In manv lmrortant case. Ths Legislature In inos appointed him commissioner to codify the lawa of Oregon, and Lord'a Oregon Law la the result of his labors, which will soon be distributed.

Bat be did not allow that mlafortuna to chanca hla nature, and when thla waa overcome, be vit moat cental companion. Aa a friend he wa faithful and true, Aa a aoldler. he waa brave and patriotic. Aa a lawyer he waa lndustiiouo and attentive to the Intereeta ef hla cllenta. Aa a Judra he waa patient and h on eat, and had the power of putting in clear and forcible lan u the declatona on the many queatlona that were aubmltted to him, Aa a Governor he a ho wed that he poeaeaaed executive abil ity of the hlfheet order and he a;ave to the atate an administration above criticism. Aa an ambassador of the United States ha waa all that could be desired. Hla domestio relatione were moat happy. In hla death hla widow and children have nt a friend that never can be replaced. The bar haa lost a most distinguished mem ber the atate a devoted cltlxen and tha Nation a most loyal and faithful servant. Judfe Lord's career waa Ion and honor able.

A Reasonable Plea For ths Stomach If Your Stomach Is Lacking in Di gestivo Power, Why Not Help tha Stomach Do Its Work Espe cially When It Costs Noth ing to Try? Not with drugs, but with a rein forcement of digestive agents, such as are naturally at work in the stomach? Scientific analysis shows that digestion requires pepsin, nitrogenous ferments, and the secretion of hydrochlorio acid. When your food falls to digest, it Is proof positive that some xf thess agents are lacking in your digestive apparatus. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain nothing but these natural elements necessary to digestion and when placed at work in the weak stomach and small intestines. supply what these organs need. They stimulate ths gastric glands and gradually bring the diges tive organs back to their normal con dition. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been subjected to critical chemical tests at home and abroad and are found to con tain nothing but natural digestives. Chemical laboratory. Telegraphlo address, "DIfflndo," London. Telephone No. 11029 Central. 20 Cullum SU Fenchurch SU E. C London, 9th Aug.. 1905. I have analyzed most carefully a box of Stuart's le-jpepsla Tablets (which I bought myself at a city chemist's shop for the purpose), manufactured bv the F. A. Stuart Co., 86 Clerkenwel Road, London, E. C, and have to report that I cannot find any trace oi vege table or mineral poisons. Knowing the ingredients of the tablets, I am of opinion that they are admirably adapt able for the purpose for which they are intended. (Signed) John R. Brooke, F. L C, F. C. S. There is no secret in tho preparation of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Their composition is commonly known among physicians, as Is shown by the recom mendations of 40,000 licensed physi cians in tbs United States and Canada. They are ths most popular of all remedies for indigestion, dyspepsia, water brash. Insomnia, loss of appetite, melancholia, constipation, dysentery and kindred diseases originating from im proper dissolution and assimilation of foods, because they are thoroughly re liable and harmless to man or child. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are at once a safe and a powerful remedy, one grain of these tablets being strong enough (by test) to digest 3000 grains of steak, eggs and other foods. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest your food for you when your stomach can't. Ask your druggist for a fifty cent package or send to us direct for a free trial sample pack n k and you will be surprised at the result. F. A. Stuart Co., 160 Stuart Bldg., Marshall.

Eby today submitted a preliminary report of their Investigation to the Live Wires of the Oregon City Com mercial Club, and after being promised the hearty and unanimous support of that organization, were requested to proceed and work out a definite plan of operation. It is probable that a mass meeting of the citizens of Oregon City and Clackamas County will soon be called for the purpose of fully discussing the proposition. It is embraced in the tentative plans of the promoters to proceed cautiously, at as little expense as possible, and first obtain funds for the eradlne of tne roaa irom uim city as far as Beaver Creek, wnen it is expected additional funds will be forthcoming. - BOWLBY TO QUIT OFFICE WASHINGTON' TO HAVE ISEW HIGHWAY COMMISSIONER.
