LONG WITHOUT A COMPANY The Old Day of Leaving the Farm for the Battlefield is Gone by War is Now an Exact Science, a Fine Art PORTLAND, Or., April 9. (Spec ial) Passage of the Army bill at Washington on Saturday last very likely means three new companies of coast defense artillery for the Nation al Guard service of Oregon and on account of its accessibility to the mouth of the Columbia river Astoria is more likely to be selected as the station of at least one of these com panies. Astoria has been long with out representation in the Guard ser vice but the prospect of organizing a coast artillery company will no doubt be readily received, a number of communications from Astoria on the subject having already been re ceived at Guard headquarters in Portland. Changes have occurred in the ulti- ity of the Guard in the past few years. It is no longer a strike-breaking ex pediency but a part of the plan of National defense. Should war be de clared tomorrow the National Guard of the States would have to be relied on as the first line of defense since the Regular Army is a mere handful. Volunteers would come in due time but in modern warfare thorough training is necessary for battling. The old day of leaving the farm for the battlefield is gone by. War is now an exact science, a fine art. The advisability of having trained artilleryman at so convenient a point as Astoria is readily manifest. The men would be trained thoroughly in heavy artilery work and could be as Signed lo i l. oievciis ur i i. v-ummuu i . T. a . T. "V. 1 . . k I without confusion or delay. The organization of coast artillery reserves in Astoria would naturally involve the renting of an Armory al though the State hopes shortly to be able to build its own armories throughout the state. The sum of $100,000 was set apart for that pur pose by the last legislature and will be voted on by the people of the State at the coming election in June. Port land has an imposing and adequate Armory but outside communities have to depend on rented and usually insufficient quarters, generally at a FACTS ABOUT NEW THEORY AS SECURED An article from the Nashville, fenn., Banner, published during L. T. Cooper's visit to that city, throws some light on the remarkable suc cess of the young man s theories and medicines in various cities visited by him durine the oast year. The article s as follows: "In view of the enormous sale of Cooper's preparations now going on in this city and the intense interest which Mr. Cooper has stirred up since his arrival, a representative of the Banner spent Thursday afternoon at the young man's headquarters, watching the swarm of humanity come and go. "During the afternoon the reporter interviewed many of the callers and obtained statements from' all who cared to give them as to their exper ience with Cooper7 and his prepar tions. "The following are selected from those statements as being typical of the general expression of the people seen: "Mr. B. B. Lasater, living at 1224 North Fourth avenue, when inter viewed, said: 'I have been troubled with my stomach for the past two years, and have had rheumatism for more than five years Sometimes I could not walk, and there were times when I could not even move in bed. Hard knots would form on my mus cles, which caused me intense pain. Gas formed on my stomach after eat ing, which gave me much pain and distress, and often I was restless and tossed all night, losing much sleep and rest. " 'Hearing of Mr. Cooper and the , great work his medicine was accom- plishing for others, I decided to try heavy cost to the State. Armories being a necessity of modern military training, especially in coast artillery reserve work, every effort is being made by officers of the National Guard Association to bring the voters of the State to appreciate that fact. Astoria is looked upon as one of the points directly interested in the suc cess of the measure.

True to the prediction of their stage director, the Donald-Bell pro duction of the muchly discussed play 'Girl From the Golden West," last night, was the most pleasing play seen in Astoria in many a day. The large and more than usually cultured audience last night were held in a spell by the charm of delightful sim plicity that prevails. The language throuehout is beautiful; situations intense at times, and the play con . t . I. - 1. ..... .... AnU..M t.r linns suinc ui wic u i!yss.n. ... spoken in an Astoria Theatre. Indi- vidual mention cannot be given here, but each and every member seemed to live in the sphere to which the action of the play takes one "the days of old, the days of gold, the days of '49." All in all, no one who enjoys a play as true to nature as an author can fancy and who can tell real acting when they see it, should miss this truly great play.

My stomach is in good shape, and does not trouble me at all My rheumatism has nearly disappear ed. and I expect to resume work shortly, for the first time in K months. Mr. Cooper certainly has wonderful medicine, and I am grate ful for what it has done for ni" ' Another caller was Mrs. T. J Smith, of 505 Hudson street. Six said: 'I have been a sufferer from bladder and kidney trouble for 25 years. In that time I have tried many prescriptions and various kind of medici nes, but receive little or no benefit from them. I seldom had sound night's sleep, my rest being broken at intervals throughout th night. I had pains in my back and burning sensations. '"I heard so much of Mr. Cooper that I came to the conclusion he! might be able to afford me some re lief. I have now been taking the medicine about a week, and feel bet ter in every way. -The pain has dis appeared, and I have no distress whatever. I have come here today to express my appreciation to Mr. Cooper for his wonderful medicine and what it has done in my case. I will take pleasure in recommending it to others.
