Reed re move from our national affairs one of the brainiest men who ever held public office. - Reed started at the very bot tom of the ladder of fame and by his own untiring efforts ' and remarkable Intelligence made for himself a name that will live for generations. Like Cleveland, he was i.ot appreciated dur ing the time of bis most remarkable accomplishment?, his departures as fpeafcer of the house causing particular antagonism to.him. Afterwards, iiow- even when the public realized that his new ideas In parliamentary law were .of Incalculable benefit, he came in for the credit to which his achievements entitled, him. Reed's death is a ca tamity and It will be many years before his place is filled. . Tomorrow the peaple of Astoria will elect a city attorney and four members of the common council. The repub licans have named for o.Tice five trust worthy and competent men. and the ticket should receive the hearty sup port of voters. The republican can dldates are pledged by an organised party to faithfully perform the func tions of their offices If elected, and they should. In this republican city, re ceive an overwhelming majority. The five gentlemen named wilt be success ful If the republican voters do their duty at the polls tomorrow. Many republicans become indifferent in an "off year" election, forgetting that apathy at one time will hare its det rimental effect in later campaigns. It is the duty of every republican to go to the polls tomorrow and vote his par ty ticket. Good men have been nomi nated and they should be elected. Dancer's Armee-Zeitung states that during October some Interesting experi ments in shooting were made at the Stelnfeld range in connection with the school of gunnery for the Austrian gar- i .. . .tn rit,on artillery, ab oia oui uu kh it able searchlight was placed M & dis tance unknown to the gunners' and Il luminated at night. Fire was opened cn it from a battery of six 4.7 guns. arfd within five minutes from the first round the mirrors -of the searchlight were shattered to pieces. A second searchlight was hit after a few rounds bad been expended in getting the range. The distance was about . 2200 yards During the daytime a captive balloon wespeet. It is an evil day for the wife and mother when she scans her, worn face in the mirror, and asks the question Does it pay? Does it pay to sacrifice health and harmineaj t0 wedded love f " But L i?M A there is another ques UffiXJMn which rightly iffm takes precedence of M &.fM Does it pay? It is sary to sacrifice health and happiness to wedded iove t " Half a million women answer, No! They have been weak and have been made strong by Dr. Pierce's They were sick and Favorite rresenp- tion" made them well. It will do the same for almost every woman wno gives u a fair and faithful trial. It stops weak ening drains, heals Inflammation anj ulceration and cures female weakness. It tranqualizes the nerves and encourages the appetite. I epeeti to become a mother, and S thrtatenfd mischance grcstljr wmkened mi," write Mrs. K. A. Nations, of Witts Springa, Heorry Co., Ark., "and my old disease returned. ly hnsbaud got another doctor for mt but I aceraetl to jut draff along and get no better. At Isit I told the doctor that if hit medicine did aot help me I would go back to Dr. Pierce's sirdidara 1 did ao. and by the time I had takes them one month I could do my own housework, except washing, and tended my gardes too. I ws atonter than I had ever beea while waiting baity' coming since my Brat ho by came (this one wan the sixth child). She b sow eleven months old and Is a healthy child, As far me. I leel as young now as I did at eighteen years of age ; am thirty now, I can cheerfully recouimeud Ir Pierce's medicine to ail suueniig womankind." Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cars biliousness and sick headache. it .r -Vys.k v y Mi of about Id feet In diameter was fired at. ; The dixtance was $300 yards and the bulioon was some hundreds of feet in the air (the height is not stated more definitely).. After w rounds a shrapnel shell exploded dose to the bal loon, from which Issued a long stream of fire and the balloon fell rapidly to the earth. Those experiments were followed by two batteries being oppos' ed to ea:h other In a manner which has already been practiced In France wid Russia. Each battery was con sented by telephone with the marker at a dummy battery "n which the figures representing the gunners were so con structed as to fall when hit. Each battery opened fire upon the dummy battery of Its opponent. The casual ties in the dummy battery were tele-i phoned to the real battery, when men corresponding to the fallen . figures were withdrawn, and the battery which In course of time no longer had men left to serve It lost the contest. ,; THE STATE FKESS Portland Illustrated Courier: In an other month Salem will be the Mecca toward which most of the state poli ticians, will be casting their eyes. The election of a United States icnator to succeed ' Joseph Simon will, if there were no other Incentive, cause a gath ering of the state clans. Charles W. Fulton of Astoria is the logical can didate. . It was he who, perhaps, more than any other one person, aided in electing the republican ticket at the June election. Taking the stump ear ly In the season, his voice was heard practically In every county in the state until the close of the campaign. That he was at that time talking for his own candidacy is quite naturally conceded. Mr. Mitchell who was elected two years ago is more than friendly to Mr. Ful ton, and with him goes the friendship of the federal office-holders. There fore when it is said that Mr. Fulton is the logical candidate it is not speak ing at random. Pendleton East Oregonlan: The abuse of the timber and stone acts, by a few parasites, will probably result In the repeal of the law, to the Injury of j the bona fide settlers. Thus the stream of civilization Is turned aside. retarded and polluted by the grafter, the non-producer, the mercenary who has no Interest in the permanent set tlement of the country and whose cltt senshfp is dwarfed to the measure of a dollar. The people must suffer for his crime. Albany Herald; The day of Wash ington's supremacy over Oregon Is fast coming to an end. While during the last dozen years the population of Washington has increased more rapid ly than that of Oregon such now is not the case. Oregon is now keeping pace with her sister state and the tide Is beginning to turn this way. In 10 years from now the population of Ore gon will efjual that of Washington anil will be double what It is now. Florence West; As th time ap proaches for the r.ext meeting of the legislature, interest in the senatorial question Increases. Hon. C. W. Ful ton seems to be gaining In strength with good prospects of success. The Astorlan predicts that Mr, Fulton will be elected before the tenth ballot is reached.
