Oovsrnor CharSJbsrlaln and ( members of tbe Orson lealslaturs arrived here laat night attar a trip of lnapeotlon to the Washington penitentiary jute mill Members of tbegparty stated that the trip bad developed facte which are likely to defeat the movement to sup plant tbe stove factory In the Salem penitentiary with a lute mill. The contention la that a mill that would furnish all the sacks needed by Oregon farmers would require the labor of nearly 10 times as many convicts as the state has at her disposal and that the Installation of such a mill would en . talj the cost of more than 1600.000. To ' Install such a plant as la now In opera tion In Walla Walla would coet proba bly 1125,000, while Its maximum output would be only 11 per cent of the num ber of sacks used In tbe state. The agitation for . a jute mill at Salem was started by the farming Inter ests of eastern Oregon and It is under stood that the movement will be backed by the union labor Interests of all partr of the state. The farmers want cheaper sacks and the union labor people want the convict labor applied in industries which will not bring it into competition with free labor. Members of the legislative party which arrived here tonight, however, say that the prospects for the change of industries at Salem are very gloomy. They point to the fact that the manu facture of only a small fraction of thr number of sacks needed would be of no benefit to the farming Interests at large as it would not affect the market. An other adverse argument is that th stove factory la now psylng good divi dends, while the manufacture of iuki would be speculative and riaky, lnaarl much aa th raw nmiluM i H - - w - - w . w.u A uuw I r manipulated by a trust.

OOVEM ELKS' BUILDING. SEVENTH AND STARK STS. (WaabtDfton Barren of Tbe JcarasL) Washington, Oct. fl. Two year ago the state of Pennsylvania wentajtapub Hcan by 496.000 majority; today it is frankly admitted by every Republican who shows bis face In Waahlngton that the state is in doubt, with at leaat an even chance that it will go Democratic on November a. The Republican party of Pennsyl vania has bean sowing the wind for, lo, these many years, by supinely aUowlng that old plum tree shaker, the late Matthew Stanley Quay, and his under study, Senator Penrose, to have their unobstructed will with the party, and now the party Is apparently in grave danger of reaping the whirlwind. Por years and years tbe Republican party of Pennsylvania has lived and moved and bad Its being in a machine the like of whieh for downright Iniquity and barefaced graft haa never had an 'equal, a machine which by comparison made tbe Boss Coxes, and the even tbe Dick Crokers, look like amateura It is doubtful if Tammany ball in its rot tenest momenta ever even dreamed of anything so rank aa the construction of a public building for 14.000,000 and the expenditure of 18,000,000 in furnish ing tbe same, yet that Is what has occurred in connection with tbe new Pennsylvania state capltol. Torest of Chandeliers. -Indeed It la this state capltol matter which haa brought the present culmina tion. Tbe capltol waa built by legisla tive appropriation, and the expenditures were therefore necessarily open and in plain eight, with the result that tbe state acquired a building which is con ceded to be the finest of its kind In the country. But the furnishing of the capltol waa not dona la that way. That part of It waa done, by soma sort of a committee or commission, under a gen eral act of the legislature Instructing It to go ahead and furnish the new building, and. eay, they did it Never before waa there such a case of furnish ing. Tbe gent who designed the fur nishings received S per cant of the' 19,000,000 for doing It, and, aa anyone can see. will never have to work any more. The building la a forest of chande liers. Chandeliers in front of you, to the left of you, to the right of you. chandeliers every wheee. Chandeliers to burn. Chandeliers so numerous aa to be pronounced vulgar by the moat un sophisticated visitor, and a cussed steal by the sophisticated. The state ' was made to pay It a pound for the bronse In the chandeliers, whereas It is aaserted that lr could have bean bought for 40 cents, and that all finished I1.J0 a pound would have been extravagant. Tbe chandeliers coat a total of 12,000, 0M. Oeaftara Apologetic Plenty of other citations off tbe same place could be made, but with thia chan delier deal aa a sample, coupled with the fact that the furnishings cost a mUllon more than twice as much aa the building. It will perhape suffice to ehow why at last the people are out to do things to the Republican party of Penn sylvania. The furnishing deal waa car ried through by stealth, so that the general public did not know anything about it or the cost until the job waa finished or practically so. But some three months ago they eegan to get wise and then the fur began to fly, and the row grew so great thst even the graft- era, who had come to think tbe Pennsyl vania people would stand for anything. became afraid and apologetic. The Re publican party managers shook worse than old Mat used to make the plum tree shake. They hastened to nominate a state ticket made up of the very beat men to be found in the whole Keystone commonwealth, beaded by Edwin 8. Stuart of Philadelphia, who some years ago acquired a national reputation for the things be would not let the gang do while he waa mayor of that city. The Young Physicians WHAT HIS EXPERIENCE PROVED. In the early sixties It was usually the duty of a practicing physician to ride many miles every day on his regular round, of visits upon his patients. In those days a young man who had received t splendid medical training In one of the t medical colleges of that day waa ac niammesi to ride tan. twentv. thirty miles i or more visiting the sick and afflicted. till success waa soon pnenomenai. uoo tors and families called him for consulta tion to towns at considerable dint noes by rail. HI specialty was the cure of those common and distressing diseases of women. Ha had early discovered that by combining the extracts of the follow ing medicinal plants, in just the right proportion, without the use of alcohol his Prescription" almost Invariably cured such cases. Later, in order to place this remedy before the public. In a shape easily to be procured, ha established a labo ratory at Buffalo, N. Y., where regu larly qualified chemists were pat In charm to accurately prepare hit "Pre scription" and put It In shape far ship ment to art parts of the world. This remedy, which he named Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription Is not a "patent medicine but a tonic and nervine for women, and a regular physician's pre scription, and contains the following in gredlenuLadyJ Slipper root, Black Cohosh root, Unicorn root. Blue Cohosh root, Ooldaa Baal root, and chemically para glycerine. Dr. Pierce does not claim for hl -Favorite Prescription" that It is a "cure-all." It is recommended aa a most perfect specific for woman's peculiar aliments. So uniform are the results which follow the use of this remarkable remedy, that It can be truly affirmed of " Favorite Pre serlpUon that 44 aUtayt Helps and almost aUeov cures. Ninety-eight par cent, of the wont who give this medicine a fair and faithful trial are cured and remain cured. It Is a powerful Invigorating tonic. Im parting health and strength In particular to the womb and Its appendages. Ths local, womanly health Is so intimately related to the general health that when diseases of the delicate womanly organs are cured the whole body galas In health and strength. For weak and sickly women who are "worn-out," "run-down" or debilitated, especially for women who work In store, office or schoolroom, who It at the typewriter or sewing machine, or bear heavy household burdens. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will prove a priceless benefit because of Its health restoring and strength-giving power. Tara Paoor.

Pierce, Buffalo, M Y Knox delivered In Pittsburg In behalf of the regular ticket. That speech waa a clever defense of the old crowd. When it comes to a discussion of the scandal relative to the furnishing of the state capltol Senator Knox calls attention to the gupero state ticket nominated by the regular Republicans, and aays Stuart, the regular candidate for governor, Is pledged to inveatlgate ail that and to see that the guilty are detected and punished. Knox's argu ment Is conceded to be aa fine a defense aa a man could make, but still It is a defense, and nothing more, while the other fellows do not let up for a mo ment In their policy of attack and ag gression The one mistake the Lincoln Repub licans have made le to Indorse tbe Dem ocratic nomlneea for congress In a num ber of districts. This gives the Demo crats a strong probability of gaining at leaat six or aeven members of the na tional house, in the state, but It also brings President Roosevelt . Into the state campaign as an issue and may readily cause many Republicans, who otherwise would vote agalns the gang, to support the regular ticket. Every body can understand how that is when there are men In every state and terri tory except Arizona ready to open their mouths so wide, hurrahing for Roose velt, as to break their necks. It Is said, also, to be this which has eauaed tbe president to aend Attorney-General Moody to Philadelphia to make aa ad ministration speech under the auspices of the regular Republican management, thus giving the Penrose crowd a chance to claim what they have all along been aching for that the president Is on their side. It is considered likely that if the Lincoln men had kept their hands off the congressional ticket the presi dent would have let the house cleaning and linen washing in Pennsylvania go ahead without interference on nia part In spite of the Democratic state plat form's aseertlon that he Is but a weak Imitation of the peerless leader from the banks of ths Platte. But In the meantime tbe storm, which had been gathering for years, broke. The graft, the rattan elections, the packed conventions, the plum tree shak ing, the bribery of all who could he bribed, the looting of all that waa steal able, bad culminated In the capltol scan dal, and. In spite of the fact that the frightened party managers had put through some real and radical reforms at the laat aeaslon of the legislature. there waa a spilt In tbe Republican ranks. Some of the seff-respecting Re publicans of the state, outraged beyond further endurance, organized the Lin coln Republican party and nominated a atate ticket heeded by Lewis Emery f Franklin, a distinguished citizen who bad won wealth and fame by fighting the Standard Oil company for the past 26 years. That ticket was Indorsed by the Democratic state convention, and although the Democrats adopted a plat form denouncing President Roosevelt aa a weak Imitation of William 1. Bryan, the Lincoln Republicans let it go at that and are working In harmony with the Democrats In this campaign for the de struction of the regular Republican party in the state. And now theee two wings of the peo ple of Pennsylvania are faoe to face In the Ttnal stages or tne struggle for supremacy. Tbe Lincoln Republicans are stumping the state, side by side with the Democrats, and making every dell and dale reek with the stench of the misdeeds of the regular Republican organisation. The stuffed ballot boxes are being hauled Into view. Every packed and debauched convention Is be ing recalled. The way Quay used to get himself reelected to the United States senate Is Ming for the first time set forth In adequate language, with dollar-mark specifications. Psnroae, Dave Martin. Dave Lane and all the rest are also getting theirs. And finally the orators are Winding up their speeches with an exhibit of some of tbe things the new state capltol Is furnished with, such, for Instance, aa a piece sawed from the leg of an alleged solid ma- ran v chair, showing It to be white pine veneered with the wood of the bay tree, with not even a hint of a taste of mahogany In It. On tne other band tne regular Kenun- llcsns a,r defending themselves with all the desperation of mea who know they are fighting for life. Perhaps the very best Illustration of the course they ere taking la shown by the snseah Senator But, In spite of the president's action, the Republicans In charge of the regular ticket In Pennsylvania are not sure of the result of the election. Not one ot them seen here has any claim of certain success to make. They all know thoy are In a real fight for the first time In years, and do not try to conceal the fact that they are soared.

SAY LIFE RATES ARE HIGH A special committee which haa been investigating the office of the auditor of state for a year, with special refer ence to mutual and stock Insurance companies, today submitted its report to Governor Hanly. Tbe general conclu sions of the committee are that "the coet of life insurance to the public la too high. The present maximum pre mium rates for insurance are so much In exceea of needs as to permit of ex travagant management of companies, theft of their funds, division of profit and other great abuses, without render ing the oompanlee Insolvent." The above committee, whloh has Just completed ita report to the governor of Indiana, is at leaat a year behind a committee of Portland's most success ful business men, who arrived at the same conclusion some time ago. In stead of reporting their findings to Governor Chamberlain, however, they Incorporated a company for the pur pose of furnishing tbe people of the northwest with life Insurance at the lowest possible coet consistent with absolute safety. This company Is known aa the Co lumbia Life a Trust company, and the 'Wimple Life" policy Issued by them Is tne most practical ana economical guar anteed life contract issued by any com pany. Any person contemplating Insur ance who does not consult them will make a grave mistake. ATTACKED BY U0NESS WOMAN USES WHIP "Jesraal Special Ssrvtss.) New York.
