Ryan, George Savage, J. Q. Johnson Frank Croner, J. Hulbert, T. C. Davidson, A. J. Smith, K. G. Hayes. The convention was a harmonious one, the only contest of consequence being a hot fight over a proposal to leave a place vacant on the Senatorial ticket as a silent Indorsement of L. H. McMahan's candi dacy. The motion to leave the place Va cant was vigorously opposed, the major ity of the speakers contending that if Mc Mahan wanted anj thing at the hands of the Democratic convention he should come In and await nomination. Those favoring the motion said that if the Democrats should not have a full ticket there would be a three-cornered fight and the Repub licans would win easily. DIecusslon was finally shut off by loud and continued crk6 for the question, and when put to a vote the motion was lost by an overwhelming negative vote. Later in the day McMahan was voted on the ticket without opposition. All the Legis lative candidates were nominated by ac clamation, as also were most of the county candidates. The convention voted down a resolution Indorsing J. A. Jeffrey for Joint Senator with Linn County. Routine of the Convention. The convention was called to order at 11:30 by County Chairman W. S.

The platform indorses the initiative and referendum and demands an amendment to the United States Constitution pjoid ing for the election of Senators by "direct vote of the people. It advocates retrench ment and reform In county and state ex penditures, and demands thit all state officers be placed- on flat salaries not to exceed ?3000 per year each. Mismanagement of the business of the State Land Board by making-bad loans and permitting intermediate parties to make money out of the sales of lieu land, "was denounced. The platform demands the enactment of a law limiting passen ger rates on railroads to 3 cents per mile J and fixing freight rates at a reasonable figure. The corrupt methods practiced In eome of the precincts in Marlon County in the Republican primary election wero vigorously condemned, and to cure such evils the enactment of a law requiring 30 days' residence In a precinct prior to primary election was advocated.

As a parting slap, the Democratic plat form denounces the Republican State Con vention for nominating W. J. Furnish for Governor and pledges the support of the Democrats of Marlon County for George E. Chamberlain. The nomination of candidates for coun ty and Legislative offices concluded the "work of the convention. IX POLK COUXTY. Connty Ticket Put Into the Field All Element Harmonious. DALLAS, Or., April 5.

It Is quite generally agreed that the bat tle royal will be over the election of the Legislative ticket. John L. Rand and Will iam Smith, two of the ablest members of the bar in Eastern Oregon, are' pitted against each other for Senator 'from the twenty-fifth district.

Chicago Chronicle. Physicians agree that overcoats are re sponsible for the colds with which so many people are afflicted, and they give a thoroughly scientific explanation of the fact. When a thick overcoat is worn, they say, the warm moisture given off by the body is prevented from escaping. It collects In the coat, vest and undercloth ing, thoroughly saturating them. This is not of much consequence so long as the overcoat Is worn, but when that is taken off the wearer is in the position of a but ter cooler surrounded by a damp "cloth. The heat of his body Is conducted away in large quantities and he suffers a sud den and severe chill. To' this are due many colds, as well as lumbago, rheuma tism and neuralgia. , , As a rule the overcoat Is taken off at the worst possible time that Is, when exer cise has ceased. The routine for many men Is: Breakfast In a warm room; a quick walk In a heavy overcoat; arrival at a cold and draughty office in a state of perspiration; removal of the overcoat and a fit of shivers. To avoid these results several courses are open. First, one might advantageous ly rely for protection from the cold on wirm woolen underclothing. If one Is oung and robust It is not necessary to wear an overcoat at all. Then the evap oration of moisture will go on gradually Five Dollars a Box The Price Cut No Figure Wilh Him. I want to say for the benefit of some poor dyspeptic that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will give comfort and cure every time. Five dollars a box would not stop my purchasing them, should I ever suffer again as I did for a week before using them. The one 50-cent box I bought at my drug gist's did the work, and my digestion is all right again. Many of my neighbors have also tried these tablets and found them to be Just as represented, and Mr. Ellms also wants me to use his name In Indorsing Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets. 4 (Signed) A? ELLMS and CHAS. F. BUZZELL. Assistant Postmaster, South Sudbury, Mass. Mra. James Barton, of Toronto, Canada, writes: "For 18 months I suffered from, what I supposed was bladder and kidney trouble, and took medicine from three different doctors, without any sign of cure. I felt so 111 at last I was hardly able to do my work. "I thought I would try a box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and see If they would make me feel better, never really thinking I had dyspepsia, but after only three or four tablets had been taken all the acid trouble disappeared, and then I discov ered I had had acid dyspepsia, while the doctors had been treating Tne for kidney and bladder trouble, and one of them treated me for rheumatism. "My digestion Is fine,, my complexion clear, and I am able to do my work, and low spirits are unknown to me. "I am so thankful for finding a cure so good and so pleasant to take as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I am surprised at the change they have made In me." All druggists sell and recommend Stu art's Dyspepsia Tablets, because they con taln only the simple natural digestives, and, taken after meals, prevent acidity and cause prompt digestion and assimila tion of food. Physicians everywhere indorse them, be cause they are as safe for the child as for the adult; they are invaluable for sour stomach, nervous dyspepsia, heartburn, gas on stomach and bowels, and every 4 form of stomach derangement If- you want to know what smartly dressed men will wear this season ask Ben Selling about it The Least Vain Q0- slg?

But if the day is excep tionally cold a light and porous overcoat may be safely worn. i;ew library books. List of Accennlonn nt the Free Insti tution.
