ADVANTAGE OF RITXER.
such action would be of advantage to

Only Six Members Reported IJn-
pledged and Are Regarded as
Deciding Factor.
SALE5L Or.. Aug. 19. (Special.)
After a careful survey of the sena
tors who will return to the legislature
next winter, it is my opinion that I
already have the pledges of 13 of the
total of 30 votes in the senate, while
my opponent, Roy Ritner of Pendle
ton, is sure of 11 votes." was the as
sertion of Senator B. L. Eddy of
Douglas county, who passed today in
Salem conferring with state officials
and incidentally strengthening his
fences for president of the senate.
"Of course, there always Is a chance
for a sliD." said Senator Eddy, "and
the present situation may change ma
terially before the organization is
comDleted. However, my canvass
shows that six members of the sen
ate are unpledged, and consequently
they will be the decidjng factor in
the election. Kitners claim oi xj
pledges does not correspond with the
letters and personal offers of support
I have received from vatious parts of
the state."
Senator Gus Moaer of Multnomah
county, who until recently remained
in the background as far as pledging
his support was concerned, has writ
ten Senator Eddy that he will not be
available to support the southern Ore
gon man, although he has not said
openly that he will not vote for Mr.
Ritner. It is believed, however, that
he will cast his ballot for the eastern
Oregon candidate.
Senator Eddy refused to divulge the
names of the six senators who are un
pledged, for the reason that he said

board for this district does not favor
the erection or establishment of a

Gronewald assured the voters that
an election would be called in the

trolled by prompt measures of vaccination.

ORE than 260 years of science are in Schlitz." Ex
periments in over a thousand laboratories guar
antee its purity. In these days of "steeple chase"
drinks, which are little more than experiments in velocity,
Schlitz aging possesses great significance.
Schlitz concludes the process of fermentation in the
brewery. Fermentation is the work of living organisms.
But these organisms alive in your stomach will cause
biliousness, flatulence, and a host of other ills.
Schlitz is thorougnly aged, fermented. Then it is sterilized
by Pasteur's process through which no organism can live.
These processes cannot be accomplished without time.
It takes months to create Schlitz. During these months
the brew is made according to the latest dictates of
science, based on discoveries dating back 260 years to
Leeuwenhoek, the Hollander, who first used the micro
scope for examination of fermentation organisms.
After all this care in brewing, Schlitz is filtered through
white wood pulp, put into sterilized bottles of Brown Glass
to protect it from all possibility of deterioration.

"Tanlac certainly beats anything
I've ever run across, for it's put me
back on the job again feeling fine
when nothing else would do me any
good," was the emphatic statement
made by Charles Cherblum A. Miner,
who is living at the Reno Hotel, 252
6th Street. San Francisco.
"For thirty years I've been doing
mining work all over the world, espe
cially in the states and Alaska, and
contracted mineral poisoning which
affected my whole system. About
three years ago I wts working in the
copper mines in Arizona and my con
dition got so bad I just had to give
up work altogether. My appetite went
back on me completely, and the little
I did eat caused such cramping spells
in my Etomp.cn that it almost doubled
me up and beads of perspiration would
stand out on me. I .lad such terrible
spells of dizziness that everything
turned black before my eyes, and I
had to sit down or grab hold of the
nearest support to keep from falling,
"I also got rheumatism so bad that
it seemed like every bone and muscle
In my body ached and pained me. My
kidneys bothered me a great deal, and
my back hurt me so bad that if I

and my arms and legs pained me so
badly I couldn't even walk or lift a
chair. I couldn't get .n a comfortable
position, every move was agony for
me, and the pain was so great that I
would just almost cry out.
"One day my old partner came to
see me and asked me to try .Tanlac, so
I had him get me five bottles. Well.
I stuck right to the medicine, and it
has put me in such good condition
that I feel like I could jump a fence
or run a foot race with anybody. My
appetite is so big that I want to be
eating all the time, 3nd my stomach
is in such good order I eat anything I
want without It causing me the least
bit of trouble. I don't have those
dizzy spells any more, and my kid

and at night I sleep like a log.
"I'm working at the Union Ship
Yards now but im going back to
mining in a short while. Why, I've
actually gained fifteen pounds in
weight, and am feeling as strong and
well as I ever did in my life. I al

'talks Most Intereatinifly -About
the Hair.
He says baldness Is Increasing rap
idly among men and points out some
of the reasons. Prof. Austin is prob
ably right in saying that only about
one man in every hundred ever thinks
about his hair at all, except to comb
it two or three times a day. If it falls
out he looks anxiously at the falling
hair and then promptly forgets it
until the next time he uses a comb.
A man will give the utmost atten
tion to hi3 t- th. because he knows
that when trouble arises he will have
more trouble and probably lose his
teeth if he doesn't go to a dentist
promptly. But his hair doesn't ache,
it just gradually dies, and when it Is
nearly gone and the roots are dead
he anxiously tries a dozen different
remedies at once and then resigns
himself to baldness.
Prof, Austin aaya the use of dan.
draff cures, mnnere cures and hair
tonics is like takij; medicine with

your scalp Is affllcteT. must be known
