CO., Oeneral Botha says that the efforts of the Boer leaders to secure funds for the redemption of the ruined farming lands of the Transvaal has fallen tl.it, and that the outlook for the future of his native land ts decidedly gloomy. Reports from South Africa are that there Has been no cessation of hos ' tllity between the Boers and the Brit ish, and it Is apparent that the two peoples will never beanie reconciled. In conquering the Boers for the bene fit of her KOld-loving speculators. Eng land has acquired another colonial pos session that promises to be as burden some as Ireland. The scheme of con quest carried on by the British nation augurs no good either for the posses sion or for the conquering nation. .With England might is right, and any flimsy excuse suffices to bring forth a GOLD DUST will take esery particle ol dust and dirt from jew Soon and woodwork make ttwm as clean as a whistle, neat as a pin.

Register adds: "This Is the exact po sition most of the republican state press takes on this question and the party leaders, like SetiaMr Mitchell, are said to be in line for the Astoria statesman, who Is the logical mon for the place." There is -oceans of truth lu what Secretary Root had to say cf the na tional issues involved In the present campaign. It Is merely a question as to whether or not the administra tion of President Roosevelt is to be upheld. Roosevelt stsnls for all that the needs of good government require. He has repeatedly announced bis p proval of tariff reform thit would af ford protection to the consumer, and has taken steps to cnrla'.l the en croachments of the trusts. - In fact. his policies embody all that la needed to rectify those wrongful conditions grabbers but say the vrord. With a few colonies on her hands like Ireland and the Transvaal, however, England may learn the lesson that Rome learn d too late, and the world will be bet ter off. The condition of the people of a republic is not bettered when they are forced into subjugation by a king dom. The crushing of the Bo:rs was a universal calamity, and their present pitiful condition will arouse the sym pathy of the liberty-loving people of the world. now existing. He has called forth the declaration of war if the British land-1 DnUse of conservative democrat8 and has been assured of the republican nomination in 194. It is merely a mat ter of upholding him or expressing dis approval of his course. A democratic victory in New York will be a direct thrust at the president. Says the Florence West: "In re jrard to the question as to who is to be chosen senator, the claim is made in certain quarters that because In the June election Geer received more votes than Wood he Is the choice of the peo ple of the state for that office. This Is claiming altogether more than the vote showed. In the first place Geer's name was put on the ticket by petition and not by the republicans or the state. In the second place, many who voted for Geer did so merely to express their preference for him over Wood, and be wail ?e he was the only republican whose name appeared on the ticket as a candidate for that office. The result does not show that Geer Is the choice of the people of Oregon for senator, but merely that they preferred Geer to Wood. In fact, we believe that C. W. Fulton is the choice of the major ity of the citizens of Oregon for United States senator and we hope to see him The Tacoma Ledger says! It would not be a surprising circumstance if Harriman were to try to increase the volume of Oriental commerce through Portlanl. However, the rumor that he will do this by means of steamers of the tonnage of the Hill line is non sense. Such steamers could no more get to Portland than they could to Denver. The Oregonian thinks it quite a joke that The Astorian and the Hillsboro Argus should Impute to It a policy fav orable to an extra session, while th Eug?ne Journal and Salem Journal should figure out that it is opposed to the session. Well. It Is a good Joke; but the joke Is on the esteemed Oiv gonian. Its attitude is pretty much a Chinese puzzle. The Taxpayers' league of Portland has filed with Governor Geer a p ti tion for the convenlnig of the legisla ture in extra session. It is now up to the governor tu do a little filing himseif. Of course, Booth of Lane is not a senatorial candidate. Mr. Booth knows of a candidate, however, who is worth elected to that office by the legislature working for, and he will support C. next winter." To which the Eugene w. Fulton. . no SHMBOW Of outward misfortune can darken the smile of the loyal wife and loving mother. But when disease comes the smile slowly fades, and in its place comes the drawn fjt, Jim tell of the con stant struggle with pain. When the deli cate womanly organism is dis eased the whole body suffers ; the form grows thin, and the complex ion dull. The first step to sound health is to cure the diseases which undermine the womanly Mrengtn. 1 Dr. Pierce's Fa- VA vorite Prescrip tion establishes regularity, dries disagreeable rig drains, heals in- fkmmation and ulceration and cures female weakness. The wonderful cures of womanly diseases effected by the use of "Favorite Prescription" place it at the front of all put-up medicines speci ally prepared for the use of women. I wn troubled with female weakness for eight yen, and suffered more thaij I can tell. writes Mrs. Gust. Miwer, of Ovindo, Deertodife Co.. Montana. "Mv disposition was affected to such aa extent that to say a pleasant word to anyone was almost an impossibility. I had two operations performed by one of the moat skilled surgeons of the West, but did not get relief. Then, against my djrtor's irfct orders. I commenced taking Dr. Pierce'i Favorite Prescription and 'riolclen Medical Dis covery.1 and also followed the advice given in the Common Sense Medical Adviser. "I continued this treatment for three months. and to-day am as healthy and well as a woman run lie. 1 cannot thank Dr. Pierce euough lor his kind letters to me."
