Since the battle of Santiago. Samp
son has never been the same man
again. Then In the best of health, of
fine physique and manly bearing, he
began to go down. Step by step he
went down until yesterday afternoon
he passed beyond the river.
Since the victory of Santiago, Samp
con has never had a friend- He was
regarded as a man wno auempreo v
steal the honors of another. The Amer
ican people and the world at large
condemned the man. The administra
tion stood by h'm because it had
placed him in command and regard
In the days following the baby's birth
there is often a long up-hill struggle to
recover strength, and the nurse busies
herself in the preparation of jellies snd
broths for the invalid.
When Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion is used as a preparative for mother
hood the baby's advent is practically
painless, there is abundant strength to
nurse and nourish the child, and a raptd
recovery from the shock and strain in
separable from maternity.

When I had thane mUhap I began to think
I would nerer have children. My back used
la almost break and I would get nick at my
atomach and have such headaches I did nut
know what to do ; tliey ued to act me nearly
crazy, and I uned to dread to t up, I felt ao
bad ; then I Iwjran taking lr. Piercc'a Farorile
Prescription. When baby wa expected I look
it all the time 1 wa that way. I felt fine all the
tine, and I never get thoat diiiy spella bow. I
kanlly ever have a nervous headache any more.
J have a perfect romp of boy: he ia the light
of our home. I am now twenty years old and
f baby ia almost eight montha old. I now feel
well, and wetith 180 pound, and the baby i

ed him a in command. If ttxer bud
been i failure at Santiago, lter-Admiral
Sampson would have been held
responsible, v. -
In all of the vituperation wrlt'en
against Rear-Admiral Sampson It has
never been charged th.vt he was not
In command at the famous battle. It
has only been charged that he was
not present a the battle and waa not
entitled to the honors of the victory.
The Astortan would not cast one
shadow on the fame of the great
Schley. But now that Sampson le dead
and all projudice agajnst him should
be buried with" his-body It is proper
to say if there Is om word to be
sjxk In hi defense.
He was In command. ( The battle
took place In his absence." Great nid
Schley, next in command, won the
victory. The court of Inquiry decid
ed that Sampson was rgiht and that
Sth ley's claims were wrong. The
American people decided with Schley,
"vHiatever the American people say is
generally right, but they are Impetu
ous when they think a wrong Is being
perpetrated. They thought Sampson
was attempting to rob Schley ot his
glory. They did not stop to consider.
By their universal condemnation of
Sampson they brought him to an un
timely grave. He is dead. Now will
the American people be charitable?
Do not detract from the brave Schley,
but give poor Sampson justice, Schley
won the victory a great one. AU hon
ors to him. But Sampson was In
command. Who was the reaponslbWty
upon? If there trad been defeat Samp
son would have been to blame. He
planned the battle. Then If his plans
won, was he not entitled to share in
the honors which the American peo
ple have denied him.
Grant was not at Appomattox until
after the battle was over, but Who has
ever denied Grant thehonor, though
he had Just as brave under officers In
the field as ScHey.
In spite of the controversy between
Schley and Sampson there may have
been greater heroes In the holds of
the battleships than either.
AH honors to Schley, and throw the
mantle of charity over the dead Samp
son! A few days ago Mr. Elward Wright,
marine editor of the Oregontan, while
here, sent In an article to the Ore-
goniaiy. charging the Astoria n wi.h
casting gloomy prospects over the
shortage in the salmon run this sea
son for a designing purpose, and then
proceeded to boom the run. Now the
city editor of the same paper talks
differently. He said in yesterday's
Oregonian: ''Salmon fishing on the
Lower Columbia is running under a
slow bell at present, but everything
is in worki.ng order and ready to take
care of the first of the big schools of
fish confidently expected as soon as
they arrive. The long seines are drawn
every day, but not so often as they
might be, and IS salmon is considered
auite a lame haul. The object Is to
get the boat gear and men In gxd
condition. Quite a number of shad are
caught in the seines, and are sent to j
the market, which Is now fully sup
piled. The roe of the shad finds more
ready sale than the fish themselves,
although the shad are growing In fa
vor every year.
A local paper says that Chamberlain
was nominated for governor without
the expedlture of. a dollar, and that
it cost money to nominate Furnish.
While it cost money to hold each of
the conventions that nominated these
.gentlemen It was doubtless thrown
away orl Chamberlain. The chances
lot a Democrat In this campaign are not
worth a dollar and probably the local
i paper presumes that the Democrats did
not go to so useless an exp;-n?e.
