Strong: Resolution Agralast RetHrk
of Simon to the Scnnte Defeated
Delegates to State and Con-
srreshional Conventions.
THE- DAL.L.ES, March 8. The last
scene was enacted here today In the
sharpest political fight that Wasco Coun
ty has ever known, when the Republican
County Convention, consisting of 107 dele
gates, met In the County Courthouse to
nominate delegates to the State and Con
gressional District Conventions and can
didates for the various county offices. The
principal issue lay between the two as
pirants for Congressional honors, Hon.
Malcolm A. Moody, the present Incum
bent, and State Senator J. N. Williamson,
of Crook County. The first ballot on or
ganization developed the fact that Mr.
Moody's friends controlled the convention
by a vote of 70 to 37. N. Whealdon was
chosen chairman of the convention, with
Asa StogsdiU and F. H. Isenberg as sec.
retaries. The following were elected as
delegates to the State and Congressional
District Conventions: Henry L. Kuck,
Max Lueddemann, T. H. Johnston, C.
Dethmar, M. P. Isenberg, E. A. Grlttin,
J. H. Worsley, William Staats, J. L.. Ell
wood, E. L. Smith and E. P. Ash.
A. E. Lake, the present incumbent, was
renominated for County Clerk by ac
clamation, and other nominations for the
county ticket were as follows: Sheriff,
F. C. Sexton: County Assessor, C. L.
Schmidt; County Treasurer, J. L. Kelly;
County Surveyor, F. S. Gordon; County
Coroner, C. R. Burgett; Commissioner, H.
J. Hibbard.
Nearly everj' delegation from the vari
ous country precincts was accompanied by
a deputation of local friends, making the
largest attendance ever seen at a political
convention in this county.
The following resolutions were intro
duced, but both were defeated:
That whereas. It Is the desire of the Repub
licans of Wasco County, Orcpon, that Joseph
Simon be not returned as a Senator from the
State of Oregon to the United States Senate,
and that In order to brlnp about the defeat of
the said Joseph Simon. It is necessary and ad
visable to send a separate set of delegates to
the Republican state convention pledged to
nominate only members to the State Legisla
ture who will pledge themselves not to vote
for Joseph Simon for the United States Sen
ate. Whereas, It is the sentiment of a large ma
jority of the Republicans of Wasco County that
tho services of Joseph Simon are no longer
needed In the United States Senate, and.
Whereas, It has been alleged and denied that
a certain faction of the Republican party in
Wasco County Is In favor of the re-election of
said Joseph Simon; be It herewith
Resolved. That our delegation to the state
conentlon be and are Instructed not to cast
their votes for any candidate on the legislative
ticket who will not declare himself opposed to
the election of Joseph Simon to the United
States Senate.

No Money
I Ask Only the Name
Let Me Send
I ask from you this, as an act of humanity:1 '
Simply write me a postal. Give me the name o a sick
one. Tel! me -which book he needs.
I will do this in return:
I will furnish that sick one1 a treatment which. I spent a
lifetime in learning. I will give all the advice he needs. And
I promise that if my method fails he shall not have a penny
to pay.
I will even do this:
With the book I will send an order on your druggist for
. six bcttles Dr. Shoop's Restorative. I will authorize him to
let you take it for a month. If it succeeds the cost is $5.50.
If it fails I wih pay your druggist myself. I will leave the de-
cision with you.
That seems an impossible offer, and with any other treat
ment it would be. It would bankrupt the physician who
made it
But I have made a prescription that strengthens the inside
nerves. I have learned how to bring back the nerve power
which alone operates, the vital drgans. When an organ is weak
I give it the power to act
Usually that is all that is needed. And in most chronic -diseases
there is no other way to get well.
My book will prove that I am right.
Sometimes even this method fails, but not often. There
are causes, like cancer, which no man can cure; but those
conditions are rare.
My success is so general that in every case, no matter how
difficult, I lake the entire risk.
In five years I have done this in over half a million cases,
and my records show that 39 in each 40 paid for the medicine
taken. That means that only one in each forty has been dis
appointed. '' It means that there are 39 chances in 40 that I can cure you.
No sick person can afford to neglect an offer like this.
If the treatment succeeds, you are well. If it fails, it is
free. You have everything to gain and nothing to lose by it.
Won't you write a postal to learn about a remedy like that?
Bimply state which book you want,
and address Dr. Shoop. box 694, Ra

INVITATION TO CALL
ENORMOUS LINE OF
vQsnAfl ssJL r
Ing-shlp Pensacola, and survivor of the
Maine has received official notification;
from Washington that he Is ineligible for
a commission In the United. States Navy.
The notice says that he passed with credit
the moral, mental and physical examina
tion, but that he was lacking in "profes
sional Qualifications."
Hill thus meets the same fate as Gun
ner Morgan, whose application for a com
mission was adversely passed upon last
year. Hill at present holds the highest
rank In the list of petty officers, and hi3
pay as gunner would be more than that
of Ensign. In speaking of the matter to
day he said while he was sorely disap
pointed he was not discouraged, and ho
means to get a commission if further ef
fort will do it. Under the act of March,
1901, enlisted men of the Navy under 3a
years of age who can pass the examina
tion are eligible for commissions when
vacancies occur, and Hill says he comes
under that provision.
