. talked about Japan and the delicate re
' lations existing between the two na

anticipated, but It was feared there
? would be that dreaded Indefinable

WHISKEY FOR CONSUMPTION

'It is an almost infallible cure when

and taken properly. ; The following

' Mix half pint of good whiskey with
i two ounce of glycerine and add one
half ounce Concentrated pine compound.
' The bottle Is to be well shaken each
time and used Jn j doses of a teaspoon-
.Xul to a tableapoonful every four hours.
Any good druggist can supply these
; Increments and will make the mixture
or it can lie mixed at home.
' The Concentrated pine' is a special

Ashore, Japan was likewise busily
engaged -in building, trouble-barriers.
The governor of Kanagawa prefecture,
in which Tokohama is situated, issued
a "do"- and a "don't" edict which was
a masterpiece of detail.
A few Of 'the "don'ts" forbade the
starting of dog fights la the streets, ex-
J ectora ting at any time, and the tak
ng of sly peeps at- an American while
bathing. .
-Strict injunctions were issued against
overcharging,-and the populace was en

In the evening loaded with instructions.
At 10 o'clock. when the liberty ex
pired, the first llbertv oarty was
crowded on the picturesque landing
stage, loaded with sake, bird eggs, raw
flan and banxal.
And the flrt liberty party was dec
orated with those dainty little hair
ornaments .which Mies Yum-Yum af
fects, while several-of the first liberty
party, as evidence of particular enter
prise were gowned in kimonos. -Pattering
along the streets of Yokohama,
little doll-like Japanese maidens were
poising on their oriental coiffures, with
some difficulty the flat bonnets of
Unole Cam's sailor men and the situa

of Japan was seen, when the free sake
commenced to flow, the situation was
cured.
Liberties were extended and every

pretty, phrases in pigeon English.
The royal silver cap was served with

The very frankness "of the reception
dissipated all suspicion. Never In the
history -of Japan has there been such
plain taitf on political matters, in prv
ly discussed the differences between the
two nations with the Japanese officials
artd' the Japanese press dismissed the
strained relation existing, without re

polished phrase, "Murele the diplomats
and let the people do the talking. ..There
ha been too tnueh diplomacy and too

The Brest narllamentarr leader.
Hasebo, in an Interview advocated the
calling of a convention to openly dis
cuss the eastern problem. That Japan
could not withstand tha drain of an
other war for rears was the statement
or several or the leading officials, and
American residents related- hew hard
hit Japan was by the Russian war.
It la the concensus of onlnion between
the higher naval' officers that- Janan
doe not anticipate any aggressions in
the east at this time, and now Is the
time for America- to make her position
In the east secure; not through any ag
gressions but through the sane devel
opment of an Impregnable base In the
Philippines and the maintaining of a
strong naval force on the Pacific
The idea of a convention to define
the rones of Influence of power inter-
estea in tne rar east is meetlnir with
general Indorsement from both the Jap
anese and American officers,
-ffhe greatest good whicn will - com
rrom tne visit or the fleet Is the better
understanding which will now prevail
oeiween me -two. nations, wnicn is ex
pected to prevent anv unfortunate in
cident which might plunge them Into
war. i-
That during the Ban Francisco school
troubles the two nation were close to
war Is frankly admitted, but both the
Japanese and the American naval men
rrankiy state that a convention and a
perfect understanding as a result of the
convention are the only certain, guar
antees of permanent peace.. . .
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, Maine
and Missouri, in the order named, are

HAWLEY'S POSITION ON
STATEMENT NO. 1 ASKED
Maple Lane Grange Writes Congressman Demanding to
Know Whether He Is or Is Not in Favor of Al
lowing Legislators to Violate Pledge.
Congressman W. C Hawley has been
brought squarely face to face with State
ment No. 1 and a demand has been made
upon him that he declare himself un
equivocally on the question whether or
not the members of the legislature elect
ed under Statement No. 1 shall break
their solemn promise to the people of
Orgon. The following communication
has been sent to Congressman Hawley
by Maple Lane grange:
"Be it resplved by Maple Lane grange
that our secretary be, and Is hereby
instructed to send the following open
letter to Hon. W. C. Hawley at Salem,
Or.:
"Hon. w. C Hawley, representative In
congress, Salem, or.-'-i'ear sir: f irty
two members of the legislative assem
bly of Oregon signed the following
agreement with the people of Oregon,
commonly called Statement No. 1:
" "1 further state to the people of Ore
gon as well as to the people of my leg
islative district, that during my terra
of office, I will always vote for that
candidate for United States senator In
congress who has received the highest
number of the people's votes for that
position at the general election next
preceding the election of a senator In
congress, without regard to my Individ
ual preference.'
"An effort is being made by the Daily
Oregonian to cause seven or more of
these' members to break their pledge to
the people -of this state.
"The Evening Telegram of October !9
say that many of the Republican party
leaders are advocating or approving this
movement. If you had signed State
ment No. 1, and been elected to the leg
islative assembly, would you break your
promise because the people did not
choose your, party candidate T
"Do you countenance, advise, or ap
prove of the effort being made to in
duce any of these members to violate
their Statement No. 1 agreement?
"This goes to the very foundation of
public morals. We believe men who are
publio servants should 1 be as faithful,
honorable and truthful in keeping their
promises to the people as tbey are in
private life.
"Knowing your history as an honor
able man and teacher of the youth of
our- state, we expect an Immediate, di
rect and unequivocal answer to our ques
tions which will demonstrate to the peo
ple of the state that you have not lost
any of the high standard of honor you
taught your pupil during all the years
when you were a teacher. Fraternally

FOR OLD PEOPLE
After reaching the age of 40 the
human system gradually declines in Vir
ility and strength and becomes less able
each year to combat the Ills that natur
ally beset mankind. It Is then the ac
cumulated poisons In the blood make
themselves manifest by , rheumatic and
other aches and pains In the joints,
muscles and back.
' People should heed these - warning
twinges and supply to the blood an
acid solvent and stimulating tonlov .
A prescription which has worked win
ders for persons of declining physical
vigor follows:
"One ounce Compound Syrup of
Sarsaparllla; one . ounce Tor Is Com
pound: half pint of high grade whiskey.
This to be mixed and ' used In table
spoonful doses before each meal and
at bedtime. The bottle to be well
shaken each time."
Although this is a very simple rem
edy, it will be found exceptionally (effec
tive, the good results becoming appar
ent after the first few dosea The In
gredients can be gotten from an f well
stocked drug store and easily' mixed at
horn.
