Can a man with whltkera be elected
Mjur of Chicago? The miration li
apropos the candidacy of Andrew J
liraham. who ha a full set of hirsute
coverings on his face. In all probabll
Ity there are 5.uo poster and billboards
ln Chicago carrying what 1 said to b
a good likeness of Mr. Graham. The
picture look down from rhe Inside of
sirertcara. from panels of th elevated
railway cars and from various other sta
tions. About the first thing that strikes
one regarding the picture 1 the whl
ker. They are so rare- on candidate In
Chicago that they hav all the aspect
of novrlty.
Th Orrgonlan correspondent baa
been Uiiereatrd in the comment of
men and women on the Graham pre
sentment. It Is generally agreed that
Mr. Graham Is a clean-looking, sub
stantial clllxen. with a face that seem
to merit respect and confidence, but
lb whiskers rarely eaeape adverse
crltlciam. well-groomed a they are.
With the eireptlon of Senator Cul
lom. Speaker Cannon and the late Gov
ernor Altg.ld. Chicago and Illinois
have had carcely any bewhiskered
candidate In the last decade. Th
few there hav been, with these note
worthy exception, have, a a rule,
fared badly at the polls. Unless a man
Is particularly well known before he
become a cand.date. there I some
thing about whiskers that the general
Illinois public does not like. I'm a
critic down and he will confess almost
Invariably wbat Is the cause of his
prejudice. '
I let ii res Yluallxe Candidate.
Mr. Graham la not particularly well
known in Chicago. Not one voter in
a hundred, probably, ever has seen
him and identified him. Not ono In a
hundred, probably, will have seen
him befor th Democratic primaries.
Hence, Mr. Graham must put much de
pendence on hi Slcturc to visualize. I
himself to the electorate. Such visual
ization naturally includes the whis
kers. If these do not prove the oppo
site of an asset for the banker candi
date, a too serious construction has
been placed upon the comments his
pictures have called forth.
"Jim" O'Leary does not take the
antl-whlsker sentiment seriously. He
believes Mr. Graham will be the Dem
ocratic nominee. So sure Is he of his
ground that he is. offering- odds of 5
to 4 in his book on the primary. Ha
lakes exception ' to the forecasts of
those who say Harrison will be named,
giving odds of K to 6 against that
outcorrte. He think ihere is very
little chance for ex-Mayor Dunne.
Harrison's eneiraie the Roger Sul-llvan-Andy
Graham crowd have been
delivering some telling blow against
the candidacy of the four-time mayor.
The Hearst papers have lined up for
Harrison. Issues of these papers in
1 904 and 1905 are quoted extensively
now. In them, Harrison was vari
ously called the tool of Morgan, the
foe of labor, a party bolter, the gamb
lers' friend, recipient of vice tribute,
and condoner of crime. It is a boom
erang and Is havlntr a telling effect.
See Called Hypnotist.

and boy were attracted to hi cult be

therein. The grand Jury evidently saw

testimony of little girls, who told

of conduct the proof of which in court

Miss Kbel says See Is a hypnotist of
such ability that he is able to gain
gradual control of the susceptible and
to bend them to his will. From what
she has beard, she concludes that his
will is not that usually attributed to
a lifter of his race. It Is her opinion
that See paved the way to mental
control over his followers through his
Sunday school and his classrooms,
whero his conduct was exemplary and

wholesome.
I'yrs Ilae Strange Power.
Having reached a certain stage In
acquiring the confidence of his girl
pupils, according to Mis Kbel. he then
undertook to teach ihcm the. more
subtle principles of "the absolute life."
The steady glance of his ryes are said
to exert a peculiar influence on the
mind of the person on whom the eyes
are focussed. Many who never at
tended his school or followed his
teachings, testify to the penetration
and strange power of those eyes. Sea

Church is Minister s Chilli.
Living ulone In the tower of the
church, m South Chicago, which he
founded more than 3') years ago, his
wife dead, no children to minister to
him and many of his old-time friends
moved away. Rev. George II. Kird pleads '
with tears in his eves thut he mav be .
allowed to stay to the end l his days :
in his odd home overlooking the suburb.
When Mr. Bird rnme to Chicago from
Massachusetts and established the
church. It had only two members. The
collections the first Sunday amounted
to 15 cents. The puslur paid til for
meals and lodging si a hotel. His task
seemed a hopeless one. but he stuck to
II and in a few years had a vigorous
little organization. He married a school
teacher who worked faithfully with him
to promote the church. Then Mrs. Bird
died. To the minister the church seemed
like his child. His parishioners loved
him and never thought of getting an
other In his place.
Klght years ago the tower was built.
It is 70 feet high and wae erected as a
memorial to Mrs. Bird, and as a home
for her bereft husband. On the top
floor is a well-equipped library. Below
is the third floor, providing kitchen, dining-room
and bath. On the second floor
Is a large sleeping chnmber and below
thla a reception room. Five-sixths of the
money for construction was contributed
by Mr. Bird. In his home he installed
all the things that helped to keep fresh
the memory of hi wife. There he lives,
cooking bis own breakfast. His other
meals are with members of the congre
gation, by invitation. Some times he
misses meals, but only he knows when.
Honor Is Wltlrout Income,
With the flight of years the personnel
of the church changed. Younger men
and women began to take up tha reins.
The inevitable happened and Mr. Bird
became pastor emeritus, an honor with
out income. Other ministers have hesi
tated to accept the regular pastorate
while Mr. Bird live In tho tower. Th-j
younger members have hinted in a kind
ly way it would be better for him an 1
for the church If he would go.
"It would break my heart to leave this
place." he said, tears confirming his
words.
"He shall not go." says some of the
old pillars of the church. "We will ap
peal to the courts if necessary to pro
tect him from ouster. It is his homo,
built with his money in the church he
fathered, fostered and blessed with his I
ministrations."
And so the controversy stands, the
tower overlooking the town.
Troubles of the Jews in the land of
the Czar are not duplicated in Chicago
save in a small way, when mischievous
boys pewter an itinerant huckster. Fig
ure Just made public regarding the pop
ulation of the county Infirmary at Oak
Forest show nearly Is"" inmates. Of
this number there are only nine classed
as Jews. In round numbers, there are
about loO.noO Jews In Chicago. On a
purely percentage basis, therefore, there
ought to be at least 90 Jews in the in
firmary. The exhibit for the Jews Is by
far the beet of the lot. If the same per
centage were carried out for all national
ities and creeds, there would be only luO
of these county dependents. The figures
are proof of two things that the Jews
are the most thrifty and self-reliant
class In Chicago, and that they aro
ahead of others in caring for their own.
Soot Costly to People.
It has been figured out at last what
Chicago's dirt, soot and smoke cost the
residents of the town. The toll is $10
annually for each man, woman and child.
or a total of $il.830,0i)0 for the year, as-
rordlng to the data furnished by P. P.
Bird, smoke Inspector. Mr. Bird deals
with the purely physical aspects of the
question In his computations.
The bulk of the money, he says, goes
to proprietors of laundries, to dyers.

Dean Worcester Reports That Semi-Civilized Subjects of United States Are
Horror-Stricken at Suggestion of Being Turned Over to Filipino Contrbl.
MAXII-A, P. I- Feb. 11. (Special.)
That wild people appreciate Amer
ican rule and that that rule has
everywhere met with success, is the sub
stance of the report of Dean Worcester,
Insular Secretary, which is now on tile
with the Governor-General. Life and
property have been made safe, agricul
ture is being developed. In a word, sav
agery is giving way to civilization. The
wild men of the Islands, he says, who
speak in appreciation of American rule,
are horror-stricken at the suggestion of
being turned over to Filipino control.
Secretary Worcester, speaking of in
sular advance, said:
"Contrast with the Filipino record of
Inaction and lack of interest the record
of the special government provinces and
the Moro province, where dwell really
formidable tribes which until recently
have engaged in piracy, head-hunting
and murder. Here very extensive lines
of communication have been opened up
by the building of roads and trails and
the clearing of rivers. A good state of
public order has been established.
"Head-hunting, slavery and piracy are
now very rare. The liquor traffic has
been almost completely suppressed. Life
and property have been rendered com
paratively safe and in much of the terri
tory entirely so.
"In many instances the wild men are
being successfully used to police their
own country'- Agriculture Is being de
veloped. Unspeakably filthy towns have
been made clean and sanitary. The
people are learning to abandon human
sacrifices and animal sacrifices and com,
to the doctor when Injured or ill.
"Numerous schools have been estab
lished and are in successful operation,
The old sharply drawn tribal lines are
disappearing. Bontoc Igorots, Ifugoas
and Kalingas now visit each other's
territory. At the same time that all
of this has been accomplished the Kood
will of the people themselves has been
secured.
"They are outspoken in their appre
ciation of what has been done for
them, and in their expression of the
wish that American rule should con
tinue. So far as concerns the warlike
tribes the work for their advancement
thus far accomplished would promptly
be lost, for they would instantly offer
armed resistance to Filipino control,
should the American supremacy be
withdrawn, and the old hai hazard in
terniltterit warfare, profitless and
worse than profitless for both peoples,
would be resumed.
"In making these statements it is
far from my thoughts to' disparage
Filipino soldiers, who, when well dis
ciplined and well led, have so far often
given a splendid account of them
selves; but if any proof were needed
that something more than brave sol
diers must be employed if people like
the hill tribes of Northern Luzon are
to be subdued and civilized, such proof
has been -afforded by the efforts of
Japan to establish her control over
Identically similar people in Formosa."
How to Restore Ycur Nerve Force
Every organ of your body is governed by a network
of nerve wires. These nerves convey the power which
runs the human mat-bine. This power is called nerve
force. Xerve force is nothing; but electricity. The rea
son any organ becomes weak' is because the nerves
which control it lack electricity, or nerve force, the
motive power of your body. This lack of nerve force
is shown by weakness of any kind, whether in the
stomach, liver, kidneys, heart or other organs.
If your memory is poor,
confidence and nerve all
gone; sleep restless; if
you suffer frequent head
aches and your eyes are
dull and heavy, it shows
that your supply of nerve
force is depleted.
So many men try to
build up nerve force by
doping their stomachs
with dru?s. It is impos
sible. What the nerves
require is nourishment
nerve food. If there was
. any nourishment in drugs
they might do some good,
but you know there is
not. Drugs are drugs,
stimulants, narcotics, an.
tidotes, poisons, not food.
Electricity is nerve food
nerve life. It soaks in
to the nerves and is tak
en up by them "just as a sponge absorbs water. It
nourishes and vitalizes the parts which drugs cannot
reach.
Every dose of drugs that you put into your stom
ach weakens your nerves. Every time you kill a pain
or an ache by stupefying the nerves with poisonous
drugs you are hurting them, and anyone can see
that in time, by steady dosing, your nervous system

Electra-Vita is a relief from the old system of
drugging. It does by natural means what you expect
drugs to do by unnatural means. It gives back to the
nerves and organs the power they have lost, which is
their life. ,
Electra-Vita is not an electric belt. It is a dry cell
body battery which makes its own power. It is easily,
comfortably worn next to the body during the night
and gives out a continuous stream of that strength
building, nerve-feeding force which is the basis of all
health.
Praise From the Cured
Miss D. Hoyter, Roseville, Cal., says: "I have used
Klectra-V'ita for a little
over a month, and mv im
provement in health still
continues. 1 had practic
ally no use of my limbs
when I commenced this
treatment, but am regaining-
control over them
as my nerves are getting
stronger. I can say that
Klectra-Vita has been a
godsend to me."
Mr. J. P. S i 1 v a. Hay
ward. Cal., says: "Your
Eiectra - Vita has cured
me of a very bad stom
ach trouble. My wife
used the appliance and .
was cured of rheumatism
and female weakness. I
must say that the present
good health of myself and
wife is due to the use of
Electra-Vita."
.Every sufferer should
try Electra-Vita. It is far
cheaper than a course of
drugging.
