Front all over the state cornea the news that vot ers., long established In the Republican ranks, ara finding themselves unable to wallow the nomination of Taft by the Republican party, and are turning to Brvan as the candidate who most close ly "represents their ideas of good gov ernment and equity t0 s"; . ,,. Men who walk the streets of Portland and hear the talk that Is going round, and that which was current even prior to the Chicago convention, profess them selves to be surprised at the number of voters who heretofore have boasted of their alwavs having voted the Re publican ticket, but who before the con vention said and now are saving that they will cast their votes for nryan and his running mate. Republicans Against Taft. These men explain that they did not nd do not, admire the one man control of the Chicago convention; that they would rather see a candidate brought up to the convention bv the people than to see the people herded to the candidate by the convention. And this feeling Is spreading throughout the state. Kvrn the Republicans who ate most earnest In their support of Mr. Taft concede that Bryan was nominated because the great mass of the democrats of the country desired that he be their-standard bearer. It Is argued therefore that Bryan Is bv his verv nomination the candidate of the common people and not of anv one man or one man controlled convention j The manner in which the Bryan wave !

In district number two Freda T,auner Is lending the contest. The score does not show any change simply because Mlas Iauner does not report subscrip tions every day.. Olive Williams has now finished hfi woik at Normal school and will devote the balance of her va cation time to working in the contest. 8he Intends to canvnss every foot ofj her district and will surely make a fine showing. Gladys Nelson of Oswego has already canvassed, several portions of Clackamas county, and Is now prepare. 1 to Invade other territory, and no doubt other contestants will soon hear from her. Rueloh Ollkey of Corvallls re ports subscriptions steadily every day, and It Is dally and continual work which counts, and she l.s julte sure to make a showing. Adcla Vollstedt Is at her home tn Lebanon and Intends to work carefully that portion of I,tnn coftnty before she returns to Albany.

It is used by physicians with results most gratifying. The extended uso of Castoria is unquestionably tho result of three facts: The indisputable cvidenoo that it is harmless: Second That it not only allays stomach pains and quiots the nerves, but assimi lates the food: Third It is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotio and does not stupefy. It is unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman's Drops, Godfrey's Cordial, etc This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, how ever, is to expose danger and record the means of advancing health. The day for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To our knowledge, Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health, by regulating lie system not by stupefying it and our readers are entitled to the information. Hall's Journal of Health. Letters from Prominent Physicians addressed to Chas. II. Fletcher. Dr. B. Halstcad Bcott, of Chicago, Ills., Bays: "I hay 'prescribod your Castoria often for Infants during my practice, and find It yery satisfactory." Dr. William Belmont, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: "Your Castoria stands first in Its class. In my thirty years of practice I can say I never have found anything that so filled the place." Dr. J. H. Taft. of Brooklyn, N. Y., Bays: "I have used your Castoria and found It an excellent remedy in my household and private practice for many years. The formula Is excellent." Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich., says: "I prescribe your Castoria extensively, as I have never found anything: to equal It for children's troubles. I am aware that there are Imitations In the field, but I always see that my patients get Fletcher's." Dr. Wa J MoCrann. of Omaha, Neb., says: "As the father of thirteen children I certainly know something nbout your great medicine, and aside from my own family experience I have in my years of practice found Cas toria a popular and efficient remedy in almost every home." Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: "The name that your Cas toria has made for itself In the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorse ment of the medical profession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse it and believe It an excellent remedy." Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., says: "Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary preparations, but In the case of Castoria my experi ence, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an ex ception. I prescribe your Castoria in my practice because I have found it to be a thoroughly reliable remedy for children's complalfiTft ""Any physi cian who has raised a family, as I have, will join me In heartiest recom mendation of Castoria."
