THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, POETLAND', JANUARY 7, 1900. DEMOCRATS AFTER HEARi DOST LIKE HIS MANAGEMENT OP SURAL FRED DBLIVEBY SERVICE. Hiey Say He Has Been Partial to Ohio &ud Indiana The Retirement of Senator Xest, "WASHINGTON, Jan. 2. The democrats, in casting about for campaign material, have finally hit -upon Perry Heath, ihe first assistant postmaster-general, and la;ely chosen to take charge of the publi cation committee of the republican na tional committee in Its coming fight. Ac cording to report, the democrats Intend to call upon Mr. Heath for an apology be cause of tho manner In which he has con ducted the rural free delivery mail system since he took charge of that service. Ac cording to the claims of the democrats, they have discovered a condition of affairs in Sir. Heath's office -which, when fully exposed, will make valuable campaign material, as they state that Mr. Heath 2j&s established in the two states of Ohio and Indiana a greater number of rural Xree delivery routes than In all of the 22 Elates which gave their vote to Bryan In 2S3G. In attacking a man of Mr. Heath's caliber and general good standing, they ore walking upon dangerous ground ground where they will be very apt to Blip. In all his past, as newspaper man end politician, Mr. Heath has won the reputation of heing one of the most fair end straightforward workers in the re publican party, and the charges of a few democrats against a system which he has taken up and fostered in full view of the public will make little out of tneir at tack. It may be very true that Mr. Heath authorized the establishment of c. large number of rural free delivery routes in Ohio and Indiana, and very few through the South, but without examining into the facts, It is safe to assert that there was due reason and ample justice In such action. This mail system is intended to supply cuch rural districts as are comparatively thickly settled, so that In a trip of 20 snes a day, more or less, a carrier will supply a certain number of persons. States like tho two mentioned are thickly set tled, and their rural districts are much more densely settled than are the rural sections of the South. For that reason it is probable that the South was apparently Ignored, and these states favored, when as a matter of fact the real conditions warranted the action taken by the first assistant postmaster-general. If there Is any complaint coming because of a lack of rural free delivery routes, the West has just as much, if not more, cause for complaint than the South. But the West ern people realize that as yet their coun try is not thickly settled, and are con tent to get along with the fourth-class postoffices until their sections are more densely settled. No one would question the inadyisablllty of establishing a rural free delivery In sparsely settled sections, and for that reason the democratic com plaint against Mr. Heath will avail them aiothing. Moreover, there are few men who have a better standing in their party than Mr. Heath, and it will take more than a measly little howl to do him any damage. Retirement of Senator Test. Among the recent revivals is the story of the retirement of Senator Vest, of Mis souri, at the expiration of his present term. When Senator Vest was seen about the report he gave assurance that there was nothing new In the report, ror when he was re-elected in 1897 he an nounced to the Missouri delegation in a speech that he would not again seek re election to the senate. He asserts that since that time he has had no reason to change his mind, and will retire from public life in 1903. The retirement of Senator Vest will re move from the upper branch of congress one of the familiar figures that has been prominent on the democratic side since 1S79. In his term of service Senator Vest has won a reputation not held by many men who serve in that same body; and, in some respects. Senator Vest has been with out a peer. He first entered the senate in the place of James Shields, who haa been elected to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Senator Bogy, and was ai terwards re-elected In 18S5, 1E90 and again in 1597. IHiring his entire service Senator Vest lhas proved himself to be one of the mest ready and able debaters In congress, al though his advancing years have detract ed from his oratorical powers, until now, when he speaks, it Is with great difficulty. His voice is weak, his body is weak, ana ir addressing the senate, which he seldoig does, he leans for support upon his dess. jRut In his prime there was none of this, end the wiry little figure of tba Missouri senator was frequently seen popping up when some remark on the opposite side or th chamber struck him as being personal or extremely distasteful. Senator Vest has always been a strong friend of silver, and one of nls resolu tions introduced as long ago as 1879, came as near being a victory for the white metal as any measure that has been before con gress in many years. When he was in ills prime he did not confine himself to ihe one issue of silver, but was ready on every great issue, although he seldom dea,t in small or petty measures. It will be recalled that Vest was one of the man agers in the senate when the Wilson tar iff bill was being considered in that boay, and at that time he proved himself to be not only a debater, but a manager equal to almost any of his associates. When the retention of the Philippines first be came an Issue, Senator Vest took a pro nounced stand against it, and has since maintained himself in that attitude. His efforts to defeat that issue have been persistent and pronounced, although tho senator has not taken the floor of the sen ate In advocacy of his belief. Perhaps the saddest feature in connec tion with Vest's retirement is the fact that Jhe himself fully realizes his own decline, and knows that he is really past the age when a man should occupy so important a public office as that of United States sen ator. One of the most touching remarks that Senator Vest ever made in theenate chamber was during the eulogistic cere monies over the late Senator Morrill, a man who had long been his associate and friend. At that time Senator Vest touched upon the very theme which has induced him to withdraw from public life. Those remarks will bear repeating, "It is sadd that death Is the great en emy of our race.' said he, "but under certain circumstances and environments this is not true. When the young, vigor ous, amtoitious and hopeful are stricken down, we stand shocked, as If before Boone unfinished painting or statue, where the pencil or chisel has fallen from the nerveless hand of the great artist; but when life's work is done, when the task is finished and we simply await the inev itable, death is oftentimes a friend. Let me not live After my flame lacks oil, to be enuff Of younger spirits, whose apprehensive senses A3 but new thlags disdain. "Evory Intellectual man will appreciate these lines of Shakespeare. He meant that he did not wish to live after passion and appetite were dead, when life had be come an every-day hand-to-hand conflict with disease and pain, and when we were bout to sink into that stage of senility end second childhood when we become ob jects of pity. If not of contempt" In those words the senator expressed his eentiments as regards life, and he regards pub-.c life in much the same way. When a man has grown beyond the age of use fulness and can mo longer fill public office to the best Interests of bis state and con stituents, he thinks It is time to retire, and in withdrawing at the end of his present term he is simply carrying out his own individual Ideas in this regard, Should he desire to return to the senate, there can be no doubt but that his wish J would be regarded, but he realizes that another can better serve the state in the J The battle of life is a hard-fight for most persons. It lasts from child hood to old age almost from the cradle to the grave in many cases. Parents, will you allow your children to go into this great battle unpre pared, and trust to luck to succeed ? Surely not. We can 'help you. We teach -exactly such things as every young man and every young woman ought to know. In fact, we are outfitters of young people for the battle'of life. Call or send for our catalogue. It explains our work fully, and may be had for the asking. A. P. ARMSTRONG, Prin. Fifth and future and is willing voluntarily to with draw from the stage of public life. At each congress members from West ern states which have extensive forests introduce numerous biUs for the preser vation and piotection of their forests, especially those upon the public domain. One of these bills that has thus far been introduced is a measure drawn up by Rep resentative Waters of California, which is intended to prevent forest fires on tho public domain. The method adopted in this bill is the old one of imposing a heavy penalty. Mr. Waters says that a fine of not exceeding $5000, or imprisonment for a term of not more than two years, or both, is none too light for any person who will willfully or maliciously set fire to any Umber, underbrush or grass on the public domain, or for any person who shall leave a fire burning near any timber or other inflammable material, without properly guarding the same until it burns out or is extinguished. In his bill he inserts a provision that any person who builds a campfire in the forests shall to tally extinguish them before breaking camp, and for a breach of this provision proposes to impose a flne of not exceeding $1000 or one year's imprisonment. A third provision is that any person who leaves a fire or allows one to burn out vegetation, grass, brush or timber beyond a radius of six feet from the center of tho fire shall likewise be subject to a fine, but if the fire does not assume great propor tion, the fine is not to be over $100, and the Imprisonment not over 90 days. The great obstacle that will confront thl3 bill is that it is inconsistent If members of tho house are going to legislate to pre vent forest fires, they intend to impose a good, heavy penalty, and will not care to make a marked distinction between fires due to abandoned campflres and fires started through other carelessness. The damage done is always great, and the fine should be correspondingly heavy. BONDSMEN ASKED TO SETTLE For Carelessness of Justice Aclsno-wl-e dement Thereby Hangs a Tale. There has been an interesting develop ment in connection with the deeds over which A. D. Green was killed In Grange vllle, Idaho, last summer, by J. F. Ailshie. The Grangeville correspondent of the Lew iston Tribune writes of It as follows: An important development In connection with the incidents of the death of A. D. Green, who was shot and killed In Grange ville last summer by Attorney J. F. Ail shie, was made public here when a demand was made on M. S. Martin and D. A. Wil son, bondsmen of H. Bobbins, justice of the peace and notary public at Cotton wood, for the payment of $1150 to Aileen and John E. Green, the children of the late A. D. Green. The demand Is based on affidavits of the Gren children which, in substance, state that Bobbins as a notary public certified officially that the forged signatures of Alleon Green and John E. Green to a deed conveying real, estate were the exact signatures of the parties named. The deed In question bears the ordinary form of notary certificates that "the parties personally appeared," etc. The affidavits further allege that the Green children were tfie owners of the property conveyed, that they did not sign the deed, and did not appear before Rob bins, as a notary public, in any connection with the transfer of the property In ques tion. A violation of official duties is there fore the ground of the demand made on Bobbins' bondsmen. It appears from the information made public that Aileen and John Green were the owners of a number of lots in the city of Denver, Colo., which they had received by bequest from one Nathan Wheeler. Some time since, it is stated, A. D. Green drew up a deed transferring these lots to the Naugtuck bank of Denver, Colo., and forged the names of Aileen Green and John Green to the document, later presenting the deed to Bobbins and secur ing his notarial seal and certification. -Of this transaction it seems the Green chil dren had no knowledge at the time, but later learned of the same. The sensational feature of the affair now develops when it is considered that this deed probably was the cause of the tragedy which resulted in the killing of Green, and by this later development the vindication of Attorney Ailshie is more clearly demonstrated. After the knowl edge of the deed Involving the children's property became known to them, it appears that Green gave a deed to some land to Probate Judge Garber, the children's brother-in-law, presumably to be held In trust by Garber to secure the payment of the $1150 secured by Green from the sale of the lots. It was this deed which was supposed to be in the possession of At torney Ailshie that Green desired when he entered Allshle's office the day of the killing. It appears that Green had de manded the deed before, but was told that he must first pay the $1150 due the children, by virtue of his fraudulent transfer of their property. The development has thrown much light on-the killing of Green, and clears up the mystery surrounding the much-discussed deed. It is not believed here that, even if the alleged forgery by Green is clearly proven, Bobbins made the notary cer tification with the view of assisting in the fraud. It is thought he carelessly made the certification on the statement of Green that the signatures were genuine. lit THE FENIAN RAID. There are persistent rumors of an in tended raid into Canada by Irish-Americans; but it is doubtful whether any for midable movement can be arranged. The last invasion of the Dominion occurred at the close of the war of the rebellion, when it was expected that fighting ma terial would be easily procurable, and yet tho raid did not attain any degree of suc cess. There is no indication that Canada is anxious to throw off the British yoke. Philadelphia Public Ledger. Canada has indeed little to fear from the Fenians; but it must be admitted that the British government has no reason for despising their ability to make mischief in another direction. The United States would be at little trouble to stop a move ment against neighboring British terri tory, but it could not, nor is it bound to interfere with agitations of sympathy for the Boers, the collection of money for their cause, nor with the enlistment in their service. "Washington Times. The talk of a Fenian Invasion of Can ada, by way of building a back fire for the harassment of England In aid of the ussness Yamhill. J. A. WESCO, Secretary, Boers, Is, of course, absurd. The Fenians would have the United States government as well as the Canadians to fight The outcome of the attempted invasion of 1866 was not such as to encourage a repeti tion of the mad enterprise. Washington Times. The main purpose of this sensation Is probably to annoy the English and get them to saying ugly things about the United States, which are expected to an noy Americans in turn, and thus disturb the good relations between the two coun tries. To this end even a paper raid on Canada may be serviceable, though It need not cause much excitement Phila delphia Times. It is altogether probable that the agita tion is purely a scheme to scare the Ca nadian authorities into withholding rein forcements from the English army in South Africa. It is well understood that tho British consuls throughout this coun try are watching the centers of agitation closely and are keeping the authorities both at London and Ottawa well informed of tho progress of the enterprise. Such demonstrations are not likely to help the Boers dn the least Washington Star, 3 0 fr DAILY CITY STATISTICS. Real Estate Transfers.

Remarkable Success of a New Pile Cure. People who have suffered for months or years from the pain and'lnconvenience of that common disorder, piles, will look with skepticism upon the claims of the makers of the new discovery for the cure of all forms of piles, known as the Pyramid Pilo Cure; nevertheless, tho extraordinary cures performed by this remedy are such as to warrant the investigation of any sufferer. As a case in point, the follow ing letter speaks for Itself: Mr. Henry Thomas, of sub-station No. 3, Hosack avenue, Columbus, Ohio, writes as follows: "Gentlemen: I want you to use my name if it will be of any use to you. I was so bad with the piles that I lost work on that account. Nothing did me any good. I read In Cincinnati of the many cures of piles by the Pyramid Pile Cure, and I went to a drug store and asked for it The druggist told that he had some thing else that he thought was better, but I told him that I wanted to try tne Pyramid first "The first box helped me so much that I tried another, and then to complete the cure used two more boxes, making lour In all. I am now completely cured. Have not a trace of piles, and I had suffered for years with the worst form of protrud ing piles. "I suffered death from piles, but I found the Pyramid Pile Cure to be just as rep resented. I have recommended it to several of my friends, and am thankful to be able to write and tell you what good the rem edy has done for me." Physicians recommend the Pyramid Pile Cure because it contains no opium, cocaine or mineral poison of any kind, and be cause It is so safe and pleasant to use, being painless and applied at night The patient is cured in a surprisingly short time with no inconvenience whatever. Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by druggists at 50 cents per package, and If there Is any constipation It Is well to use the Pyramid Pills at the same time with tne Pile Cure, as constipation is very often the cause of piles and the pills effectually remove the costive condition. Price of Bills Is 25 cents per package. Write to Pyramid Drug Company, Mar shall, Mich., for little book on cause and cure of piles; sent by mail free. NEW TODAY.
