DEMONSTRATION TO COME. The- controversy in relation to the available water on the Columbia river bar has reached an acute staj;e. The gravest of irusues are now before ship owners and masters, and the question of exact knowledge as to the working depths of water on the barrier is a live one as between the pilots doing daily business there and the Government ex peris who have ju-t completed their lat est survey. The pilots say that twenty four feet is the safest margin of loading to which shippers can go. The Federal experts have declared, from their lat et sounding, that twenty-seven feet is a safe maximum. Here the guage lies thrown down by the only authorities in the world; and right here the Astor ian is going to leave it, until it is tak en up by one or the other, in victory or defeat. This paper has stood man fully for the pilots and their practical conclusions, believing them the safest because of the daily measurements tak en by these men, whose sole business it is to know this if they never learn any thing else. The statement of Govern ment findings must be treated with re spect, and will be, until it is forced to the rear by demonstrations on the bar itself by vessels loaded to the greater limit; nor will the findings and declara tiona of the pilot association be treated with less respect than it has been until the same demonstration shall confute them. The whole thing is up to the bar and the ships that cross it. ONCE WILL DO. It has now been determined by the municipal authorities that the registra tion for the primaries will answer for the purpose of the general election! This varies from the original idea held that every citizen had to register twice, once, for the primaries and again for the election. The latest conclusion is un doubtedly safe, and a whole lot more convenient for everybody. The rule does not, however, obviate the impera tive necessity for the registration of every Republican in the city, nor dimin ish the expediency of its being done NOW. Once done, every man is in a position to proceed with any phase of duty devolving upon him, and there will be no limitations for the Republicans in this event, until the last vote of the party has been cast and counted. To achieve this, REGISTRATION IS THE FIRST STEP; if it is not taken, then STAND STILL. o Dwellers in the city and country alike have, or should have a lively interest in the investigation which the Depart ment of Agriculture is just beginning with a view to determining the best type of barns for dairy cows. The im portance to cities and individuals of the jurity and healthfulness of the milk upply8"obvjou8i yet the great mass1 of the urban population is still, in spite of official inspection, largely at the mercy of chance, so far as the thorough ly hygienic qualities of that supply are concerned. With the best intentions, many owner of dairy herd still house their stock in ill-ventilated and ill-con-tructed stables, with a naive disregard of the primi-ples of sanitation. Now that the scientist's are aguiu raising the question whether bovine tuberculos is not, after all, coniiminicablo, to man, the health of milch cow become, even more than formerly, a point of prime importance. Mlel dairy farms in various part of the country exhibit ideal conditions, but the condition are frequently attained only at an ex-jH-ne so great as to put them lieyond the reach of the ordinary farmer. The Secretary's evident purpose i to gather such data of the plan and construc tion of suitable buildings a will enable the average dairyman to avail himself of them with profit to himself and his customers. o The Legislature of Missouri at its last session adopted what is called the special jury law. Under it Judge Mc Donald of the circuit court, in the exer cise of the discretion the law reposes in hint, has ordered a special jury to try a case against a physician for dam ages for malpractice. The order for the panel instruct the jury commissioner to seWt thirty-five persons from the jury list who possess more than ordi nary intelligence, the standard of which is to be their ability to understand and grasp testimony relative th the anatomy of the human body and the treatment of personal injuries. o- Gov.

And you can't get rid of the backache until you cure the kidney ache. If the kidneys are well and strong, the rest of the system is pretty sure to be in vigorous health. Doan'a Kidney Pills make strong healthy kidneys. H. B. McCarver of 201 Cherry street, Portland, Oregon, inspector of freight for the Trans-Continental Company, man who is very well known among the railroaders of the coast, says: "Doan's Kidney Pills are among the few proprie tary remedies which do all that is claim ed for them, and they have my thor ough confidence. I used them for back ache and other very marked symptoms of kidney trouble which had annoyed me for months. I think a cold was re sponsible for the whole trouble. It seemed to settle in my kidney. Doan's Kidney Pill rooted it out. It is sev eral month since I used them and up to date there ha been no recurrence of the trouble. I have recommended them to a number of the boy about the freight house and I know if they gave them a fair trial they certainly must have been pleased with the results." For sale by all dealers.
