The problem of the "chronic drunks." he thought, can best be met by pro viding a Keely cure department, at slight expense, in connection with the county hospital and its medical staff. In conclusion the speaker said that he had been a taxpayer in Multnomah County for years, notwithstanding statements to the contrary, said to be made by his opponent, W. L.

FULTON LAUDS PRESIDENT In Address at Medford ex-Senator Opposes Bourne's Re-election. . MEDFORD, Or., Oct. 26. (Special.) Charles W. Fulton, ex-United States Senator from Oregon, delivered a strong address this afternoon in Haymarket Square in favor of the election of Presi dent Taft and opposing the return of Jonathan Bourne to the United States Senate. In spite of the Inclement weather a good crowd listened to the speaker's remarks and be was often in terrupted by applause. Mr. Fulton declared President Taft. because he did not make the noise that the American people have become ac customed to associating with the Presi dential office, was unjustly regarded as an executive who had not accomplished much in the way of progressive reform. As a matter of fact, said the speaker. President Taft has a record of. construc tive and progressive statesmanship which not only entitles him to the sup port of the Republican party, but en titles bim to a place among our great est American Presidents. In confirma tion of this ex-Senator Fulton reviewed the achievements of the past four years, touching upon the arbitration treaties, the reduction in the tariff, the taking of the tariff from politics, free tolls for American ships through the Panama canal, free competition be tween railroads and water routes, and his calm deliberation and skillful diplomacy In both domestic and foreign affairs. Senator Bourne, declared the speaker, had not only violated the spirit and let ter of the direct primary law, which he professed to champion, but ' was by character and political record unfitted to represent this stare at Washington. He declared the present Republican Senator a corruptlonist and a traitor to the Republican party and the people of the- state. PEASE ADVANCES PLANS Candidate for County Commissioner Replies to Rivals. "Too much politics in county affairs at the expense of the people" was a point discussed by Lute Pease, candi date for County Commissioner, in a talk at Seventh and Washington streets last night. Mr. Pease urged the ne cessity of more progressive and up-to-date county business methods, re ferring to such examples as the pur chase of county supplies at retail prices, arbitrary letting of contracts, the- unexplained and covert sale of county property at far less than Its value and the employment and dis charge of men for political reasons without regard to competence. He said that county records should be ex ported once a year, the expert to be a man qualified to act as an "efficiency engineer," charged with the duty of giving suggestions, criticism and ad vice for the Improvement of methods in all departments of county business. "Why cannot Multnomah County have the benefit of methods such as all modern business concerns are adopting?" he asked. Mr. Pease also PATRICK C. SMITH IS DEAD AT AGE OF 92.

W :-' 1 Republican In Address Says Bull Moose Party Conceived in Am bition, and Born in Malice. Taft's Firmness Shown. CIRCLEVILLE. O.. Oct. 28. "Con ceived in ambition, born in malice and nourished on misrepresentation or tne President and the Republican party. So said Attorney - General Wicker sham of the Roosevelt Progressive nartv in his third Ohio speech advo cating the ' re-election of president Taft here today. The speaker devoted most or nia sneech to a criticism of Dan R. Hanna, of Cleveland, one of Colonel Roose velt's staunch supporters. .. Supporters Are Assailed. "Some estimate."- he said, "might properly be made of the nature of the Roosevelt movement by considering the character of the four men who sup ported the Colonel with fountain pens and open checkbooks Perkins, Hanna, Munsev and Fllnn." Attorney - General Wickersham de clared Mr. Hanna's interest in the Roosevelt third party was born coinci dental with Mr. Hanna's Indictment by a Federal grand Jury in April of 1911, for rebating. "The prosecution arose out of a re port made by the Interstate Commerce Commission to the Attorney-uenerai, showing the relation between Mr. Hanna's dock companies at Ashtabula and the railroad companies over which ore was shipped," said the speaker. "The matter was sent by the Attorney- General to the District Attorney at Cleveland, who laid it before the grand Jury, which found indictments against the companies and Messrs. Hanna, Mc- Cabe and Ireland. Hanna Ansrry, Saya Speaker. "Hanna was highly indignant and sent a thinly veiled threat to President Taft that unless he dismissed the In dictments Mr. Hanna's influence and that of his newspapers would be thrown against nlm. The President de clined to be influenced by these threats. "Mr. Hanna and the other individuals were finally let go, providing their companies and the railroad companies plead guilty and pay lines aggregating UDward of I1Z3.000. insteaa oi snow ing an appreciation of the leniency of the Government. Mr. Hanna nas irom the moment of his indictment fought against the renominatlon and re-election of the President and expended in support of Roosevelt more money than the aggregate of the fines paid the Government. That is an example of the type of men and motives of Colonel Roosevelt s principal supporters. SPOKAXE ELOPERS ACCUSED OF BIGAMY SOW. When Bold Suitor Is Confronted With.

While our charges for Alveolar work are the same as the standard price of high-class bridgework, in such cases where It is possible to have bridgework and the patient desires it for any rea son, we will put in for him the very best and classiest bridgework, crowns, plates, etc., possible to be made at ex actly one-half the price charged by dentists whose work will compare fa vorably with ours. "And there Is a reason." (Terms for this work will be cash.) Briefly, the Alveolar Method is this: If you have two or more teeth left in either Jaw, we can supply all that you have lost with teeth as good, solid and sound as the best, set of natural teeth ever grown In any human being's mouth, and a whole lot more beautiful than nature's best product, without re sorting to such makeshifts as partial plates and the unsanitary bridgework. Alveolar Teeth are not only beautiful, but they are comfortable and durable. We guarantee them to last, a lifetime, where the longevity of bridgework is seldom ever longer than 5 or 8 years and generally a good deal less. It is is a disease of nutrition resulting in excess sugar in the blood, failure of fond to nourish. and flesh-wasting though the appetite be jrnod.
