FULTON AXD THE UNITED STATES SENATE. '. But few weeks at most will Inter vene before the meeting of the legisla ture which will choose a suscessor to Hon. Joseph Simon as United States senator from Oregon, and no one pub lic event of the past two years Is of more Interest to the state at lai se and to Its people. Orjgon Is on the eve of a gr;at in dustrial awakening, and It is Jue to her people, and her splendid resources, that the man selected to represent her In the senate of the United State i be a man immeasurably big enough and broad enough to take his place among the statesmen of the senate, and at the same time be one equipped mentally to lay before his colleagues the needs and wants of the state in a manner that will ireet their careful consid eration. We 'are on the verge of new era one that bespeaks much in crease in wealth and population and we must keep pace with the rapid march of progress. To do so It Is imperative that our interests be look ed after by representatives in both houses of congress who are familiar with our needs, and who are active energetic and in every way capable. At the present time there is but one man who stands pre eminently before the people of this state the logical can didate of the entire state for United States senator, and that man is Hon. C. W. Fulton of Astoria; a man pos sessed of all the vigor of youth, ac companied with the Judgment and de liberation of mature manhood a man whose fealty to party, whose person ality, judgment, standing as a finish ed public speaker, and whose knowl edge of the needs and interests of every section of this great state of ours at oncp proclaim him as the one first entitled to recognition, and the one most deserving the honor at the hands of his party. There is no one man in the state of Oregon who is bet ter equipped, and who would bring more dignity and luster to that high office." Oregon will have in the next con gress, Senator Mitchell and Repre sentatives Tongue and Williamson, a delegation that would prove a credit to any state, and the election of C. W. Fulton as junior senator will com plete a congressional delegation that will prove the most harmonious and hard working delegation that the state has ever had. Oregon needs much favorable legis lation at the hands of congress. Our rapidly increasing commerce demands the deepening of our rivers and the spe'vjy removal of the bar. With the Columbia basin and its enorrnousl un developed and latent wealth at our backs, logic forces the conclusion that there Is but one natural outlet and that by the gravity route along the Columbia river to the sea. A 30-foot channel to the sea, 40 feet of vuter whore there is now a bar at the mouth of the river, and the removal of the obstructions to navigation In the up per Columbia, are matters rt Import ance to every man, woman and child in the state, for nature has pre-or dained that the vast resources of the inland empire must of necessity find an outlet through the gorge of the Columbia. The determined effort that Is being made toward the reclamation of east ern Oregon will bear fruit at no great ly distant day, and the sage plains of today - will contribute a wealth of fruits, wheat and other cereals in the near future. The development of the Inland empire will necessitate the speedy opening of the Columbia. These are live Interests and they concern the entire state, and it is in cumbent upon each and every repre sentative in congress from the state of Oregon to labor earnestly toward the attaining of these end. The day of the political trickster is passed, and the people of the state demand that their representatives be men of brains men who will bo ac corded recognition in championing the cause of their constituents, as well as statesmen who will prove factors In molding the destiny of the nation. Such is Hon. C. W. Fulton of Astoria, and his ripe experience and knowl- n...i nf the state, his time and time again avocation of the deepening of the channel inland and of removing the obstructions In the up per river, and. in fact, the tirm stand he has taken on all public questions, and last, but by no means least, his unselfish labors in the interests of his party during the past years, de serve recognition, and he should be elected senator at the coming meeting of the legislature on the llrst ballot.; and we believe he will. j Why should not Multnomah delega-, tion accord him their earnest support?)

Fulton as Unit ed States senator. CITY OFFICEIIOLDING. The refusal of some of the candi dates to accept the nominations ten dered them for city office recalls to mind the fact that offlceholdlng In this community is not desirable. The mem bers of the council and mayor receive a "salary" of ?1W yearly, which will not offset legitimate election expenses. The city cannot afford to pay more, for the reason that it is J1S1.000 in debt This burden is constantly In the way of the enterprising councilman, and his whole public course, once he is elected, is juaged by It He Is as signed to committee work, and It would be Impossible to imagine a more on erous task. Every little matter of de- tial must receive his attention, and if he errs he is held accountable. When property owner desire a street improvement the question of grade In variably arises, . and his attitude is bound to call forth unpleasant rebuke. He is likewise trying to conduct the I municinalitv on a nvs'pm thnr la alfn. gether wrong. Saloon and sundry li censes and police court receipts are de pended upon for twice the revenue I that is derived from taxes on city prop erty, which is a condition of affairs that is perhaps without precedent In the fntire country. Every department of the city government that nets rev enue is "grafting" for funds with which to help wipe out that gigantic debt. Tho police department, re. auiring an expenditure of approxi mately $"j00 yearly, not only pays its own expense of maintenance, but last war turned over to the city treasurer a balance of something like 14000. This form of revenue should be incidental, not regular, and it is distasteful to the ordinary business man to identify himself with a plan cf conduct that Is so strikingly Improper. The councilman is required to de vote no inconsiderable portion of his time to city affairs, and he receives nothing in return not even the thanks of the people for whom he is gratui tously working. There is absolutely nothing in :t scat in the courull which would tend to make II attractive. The successful candidate feels) pride In his election, but there the honor ends. So it Is with other municipal posi tions. The office of city attorney, for instance, is one that sould receive the entire time of the incumbent. His work must be perfect, for if it is not he will have the city constantly engaged in lawsuits, which are only too readi ly instituted by the taxpayer who is actuated by a desire to avoid his share of the cost of improving streets or otherwise maintaining the municipal ity. Every matter that comes before the council must pass through his hands and receive his careful consider ation, and he soon finds that he must acquire a practical knowledge of engi neering, as well as of contracting an'" building. His public life Is a burden from start to finish. The city at torney receives a salary of $70 monthly out of which he must pay his deputy Overburdened. ' The Egyptian woman looks greatly overburdened, and yet the physical bur dens she carries will not compare with the burdens borue by many an American woman. 1 here is no burden like the bur den of disease. The woman who suffers from inflammation or ulceration, bearing-down pains, weak back and nervous ness, bears a burden which crushes her verv life. fiverv woman should know that lr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription makes weak women strong and sick women well. It cures the womanly diseases which cause weak' jicss and feebleness. It quiets the nerves, cures the aching luck aud throbbing head, and gives strength for wifely cares and maternal duties. "Whrti I fir wrote to you wis in rwd condition, and lul n.m.vst mru up.

Pierce, Buffalo, X. Y. and stenographer. When these ex penses are met, the salary is no longer a consideration. While the other of ficers are somewhat better off, they, too. are underpaid. Considering the difficulties that at tend city offlceholdlng in Astoria, It is Indeed remarkable that there has ever been a contest for position. The men who run for places In the council do so uiuy uecause tne nominations are forced upon them by political conven tions, or from pure patriotism. Oc casionally a man who can spare the time, seeks nomination, but cases of this sort are indeed rare. The man of affairs, whose time is occupied six days In the week, wil not, as a rule, accept the office. - If Astoria were out of debt and could fford to pay its councilmen for their sen-Ices, nominations would not be scorned; but under existing conditions the man who runs for office can be re carded only as a public benefactors who la making a sacrifice for the com munity at large.
