To each of the prosecutors the gover

"For the purpose of revising the

tion of the next legislature' that -will
harmonise, simplify x and r make more
definite the laws of this state relating
to the trial and punishment of crim
inals. It is my further wish that the
intinlwri nf tha commission will keep
prominently before them the greatest

repeated delays can be occasioned, y .
''Ixjng drawn out trials are not only
costly to the counties and state, but
tend to brinir discredit on the courts
and even operate to effect miscarriage
of justice. I trust that In the recom
mendations that this commission makes
a plan will be evolved to expedite the
trial of criminal cases, and thus rescue
: the courts of Justice from the evernar-
rowing meshes of technicalities which
now serve to retard their progress," and
that Its deliberations will be productive
of other advantageous changes In -the
existing; statutes.
"I hereby Inclose you an appoint

and trust that you will find it possible
to lend your services to the work In

arew Drug, Poslam, Wow Obtainable In
BmaU Quantities. ,-
Since Its discovery one year ago the
new drug, poslam. " has successfully
Tured thousands of chrohlo cases . of
eczema and other distressing skin af
flictions. Heretofore poslam has been
dispensed solely ; for ' the benefit of
eczema patients In large Jars sufficient
for a ' month's ' treatment. This waa
found to be an Inconvenience to many
thousands . who use it for minor skin
troubles, such as pimples, blackheads,
herpes, acne, scaly scalp, complexion
blemishes, itching feet, piles, etc., which
require but a small quantity to cure, lo
overcome this, and in response to urgent
appeals, the dispensers of. poslam have
been obliged to adopt, in addition to the
regular two-dollar package, .a special
fifty-cent slxe, which in future may be
found on sale at the Sktdmore Drug Co.
and other leading drug; stores in Port
land, or may be ordered direct from the
Emergency laboratories, No. ZS West
85th street. New York City. ; In all
eczema cases poslam stops itching with
first application, and proceeds to heal
immediately; chronic cases being cured
in two weeks. ' In less serious skin
troubles, results are seen after an over;
night application.
Samples for experimental purposes
may still be had, - free of charge, by
writing to. the laboratories for them.

Heppner. Or... Not. 19. The Oregon
Woolgrowera' association convention was
closed last night with a banquet by the
business men of the city to the asso
ciation. The . convention has been a
most successful one and of great bene
fit to the ; woolgrowerg -of the state.
Coyote bounty, law, sheep-shooting, for
est reserve, salt-. "supply, cooperative
warehouse in eastern markets and the
tariff were topics for discussion during
the day. On some of these drastic reso
lutions were adopted. j -
The convention put itself on record as
favoring a bounty on the coyote, paid by
the state. It may be that the associa
tion will pay half of the bounty on the
pests killed In sheep localities. .
Dr. Lytle, federal Inspector, was In
structed to refute the statement that
coyotes killed the rabbits and that al
falfa growers were not In favor of the
bounty Jaw.- Dr. Lytle said - that the
rabbits of eastern Oregon had been done
away with by disease, that the coyote
killed more sheep and thus did more
harm than the rabbit by Its feeding upon
the. alfalfa fields. : -
Resolutions were adopted In favor of
.the retention of the tariff schedule as
It now stands on raw wool, and to urge
every senator and representative from
woof-producing states to .work lo . that
end while In congress.

Dublin, Nov. 19. The Irish, party is In
the worst financial condition in years.
It is even doubtful whether the present
number of IrlshTnembere can be long
maintained in the' house of commons.
John Redmond is greatly downcast by
his annual American pilgrimage. When
the Irish party waa at the height of its
popularity the leaders alwaya reckoned
on returning from the United States
with liberal contributions to their cause.
This year, instead of the "11,000.000
which has sometimes been reached, Red
mond and Devlin came back with a
meaner tSR OAO. MnrMVrr. ihera !
practically no hope, of funds from any
other source. - .
The leaders realize -that without
American . support me party coma not
hold Its own for six months.' They ac
knowledge that In the face of the pres
ent apathy they can support not- more
than 20 members of parliament, .
Each member costs at least J1.600 an
nually and the. 80 therefore require a
minimum fund Of $120,000. .:
With its piesent resources the party
can continue its existing strength for
about one more year: If more is not
forthcoming-, from America at the end
of that time,- It must reduce Its repre
sentation by at least half.
