teresting and earnest, though In some In
stances radical and Illogical, but as a
writer he seems to have overcome these

It is certainly time that the people
were waking up to a realization' of the
grip in which the corporations holds
them. These are the charges he makes:
"Most of the matter in - this book
originally appeared In Hampton's Maga
Bine in the form of . separate articles.
"After the manuscript in chapter III
had been taken to the magazine office,
before there had been any publication,
and when the article. In fact, had ad
vanced no further than the proof stage,
I received a letter from a railroad
agent in a western city, displaying
an intimate acquaintance with the arti
cle, attempting to refute some of its
statements, and urging me not to print
them.
"Again, whlit the chapter on "Death
Avenue', was lying at the office in
proofs, and two weeks before the mag
azine that contained it had been made
up, a gentlemarf declaring himself to
be a representative of the New York
Central railroad and known In the of
fice to ba such, called with the informa
tion that he knew the nature and scope
of the article the magazine Intended
to puph about the New York Central
and he plainly Intimated that unless it
was suppressed the railroad company
would withdraw all Us advertising from
Hampton's. The article was published
end the railroad advertising was with
drawn. "About two weeks before the publica
tion of Chapter XIII, and while It, too,
had advanced no farther than the proof
stage, there came to the office of the
magazine a gentleman that introduced
himself as coming from Charles S. Mel
len, president of the New York, New
Haven & Hartford Railroad company,
which Is made the subject of that chap
ter. He said that Mr. Mellen under
stood that an article attacking the rail
road company was about to be published
in Hampton's; that It was, as he ex
pressed it. 'full of lies.' and he came
to wain the editor not to publish any
such matter. In describing the article
he showed such familiarity with It as a
IiiAp , cUuld hardly have unless he had
read It, although Mr. Hampton had be
lieved that no one outside the office
(except myself) knew of the existence
of the article.
Proofs of the matter were now pro
duced and the caller requested to Indi
cate which of the statements were 'lies.'
Each Important sentence, was read to
him separately, and he was asked
whether It wire true or false. In every
Instance, except four, he was obliged
to admit that it was true. The four
Instances to the contrary were flther
trivial of they were matters that 'Mr.
Hampton himself knew to be accurately
stated.
He had told his caller at the begin
ning of the Interview that he would
chance or omit every statement In the
article that could br- shown to he false.
After ypending the better art of a day
In the careful consideration of the mat

peared to be nothing material to change.
Nevertheless the visitor demanded that

that If It should be, the financial powers
;back of the New Haven railroad would
ruin the magazine and Mr. Hampton.
The article was printed In the Issue
of November, 1910. From that time Mr.
Hampton found It Increasingly difficult
to get any money at the bank. Even
when he offered paper of thje best kind.
Indorsed bv four man af .uuu.lih u,t
had no trouble In borrowing money on
their own account, the btUiks refused
him all accommodation. Twenty-one
banks and trust companies were ap
proached with the samo result. More
than one declared a wlllngness to ac
cept tho paper for any other purpose
than Hampton's Magazine. Several
times the paper was accepted and sub
equet'tly, at some mysterious signal,
rejected. The result was that Mr.
Hampton was ruined, according to pre
diction, and his magazine was swept
out of his hands.
It had a circulation of more than
400, 00U, and a very large advertising
business, and not a bank in New York
would advance it one dollar.
Meantime, Bples had made their way
Into the business office of the maga
zine, copied the list of stockholders, and
these were besieged with circulars In
timating that tho concern was about
to fall, and they had hotter protect
themsolves, with the inevitable reault
of destroying the magazine's credit and
bringing upon It a swarm of frightened
stockholders.
Theiie are the facts.
The first of these articles referred to
it what the author terms "The Revolt
of Spokane Before the Interstate Com
merce Commission." It is a history of
that memorable fight, which Involved
muny western rullroads, over the freight
rate to Spokane, which was the same
as to the Pacific coast a haul of 340
miles less. The figures are simply stag

tistics readily much of the chapter
would be unintelligible, but once mas
tered, they are illuminating.

WILLIAM DARRAH KELLEY
PICTURESQUE AMERICAN CONGRESSMAN. '
NO MAN Jn American public life
who began and ended his politi
cal, career as a member of con
gress was more widely known
than "Pig Iron" Kelley, who also
fall heir through- bis Jong sarvlce to the
title "Father of tha House." He re
ceived his first nickname through his
staunch tariff views, and especially in
his protection of the "pig iron'" -Industry
of Pennsylvania.
Wyiiam Darrah Kelley was born In
Philadelphia on- April 12, 1814, and at
the time of his death he was the senior
member of the house of representatives
at Washington. His success In life must
be attributed to his own efforts, for his
father died when he was a mere child.
His first employment was as a reader
in a printing office in his native city,
after which he spent seven years as an
apprentice in a Jewelry house,, from
which he accepted a position in Bos
ton. Kelley's stay in that city had a
marked effect upon the broader career
which ability, Industry, and persever
ence were to open to him. It was his
good fortune to come Into contact with
men of high attainments, whose influ
ence and example fired his ambition
and directed it Into profitable prepara
tory channels. A speech In Faneull hall,
Boston, offered an opportunity - for a
dramatic debut. The postmaster of
Boston, Nathaniel Green, heard it and
gave the young orator a clerkship, and
George Bancroft, afterwards the his
torian, gave him the use of his library,
as well as a position under the govern
ment, leaving him leisure to prepare for
Harvard.
"Young Kelley returned to Philadel
phia and Colonel James Page suggested
that he study law. "Why don't I go
to congress?" said Kelley, the one thing
seeming to him as practicable as the
other. "Maybe you will Borne day," said
Colonel Page, "but first come and read
law with me," He did so and 'was ad
mitted to the bar in 1841. His force
as a public speaker attracted attention
at once. From proseoutlng attorney he
was nominated to the bench by Gov
ernor Shunk, one month before he was
33 years of age.
Although In early life he was a Demo
crat, he changed his political views and
In August, 1866, he was nominated In
tha ? fourth congressional district of
Pennsylvania. This district being so
strongly Democratic, he was defeated,
but he succeeded in being elected In the
same district in I860-, and he held the
office continuously from that year un
til his death, January 9, 1890. or for
30 years.
In the discussion of the Morrill tariff
bill of 1861 he strongly advocated pro
tection, and one of his most memorable
speeches on the tariff was that against
tho bill of Fernando Wood, chairman
of the Mays and Means committee, in
which occurred his strong defense of
the pig iron Industry, which gave to
him his famous nickname, and which he
carried through - life. This speech has
been 'regarded by many as the greatest
speech on the tariff question ever de
livered In the American congress.
It was" Pig IronT Kelley's ..boast
that he never held an office which
he had not resigned. He had more
than once declined to be a candidate
for re-election to congress, finally
yielding h l s ' pw eotiaT ' ' a eslTe " 1 6 " the
wish of his constituents. -In 1870 he
wanted to retire, but consented to re
election with the proviso that he was
not to be expected to act as an office-broker
or a place-hunter. He had
often advised an office-seeking consti
tuent to devote his time and ability
to a more certain employment.
Oho or tf.6 Secrets of Congressman
Kelley's strength on the tariff question
was that he had explored it to the
bottom and through all its ramifica
tions. Even In the last few years be
fore his death he was always prepared
to answer a question or make a three
hour's speech on the subject, always
mastering hla ample resources, never
disconcerted, ever instructive and force
ful. For a man of experience In public
life. Congressman Kelley was one of
the least skilled of politicians; in
deed, he lacked about everything which
makes the politician. He was plain
spoken to bluntness, sometimes brus
que in manner, never hesitating to
express an opinion without considering
how It jniglit be received. He would
make rattling speeches on the stump,
but didn't take kindly to "mixing,"
which required the paying of petty per
sonal compliments without stint. Judge
Kelley was always busy, and, better
than most men. understood how to
economize time. Up to a year or so be
fore his death, he conducted an Immense
correspondence, to which ho was able
to attend promptly with the aid of an
accomplished shorthand secretary. The
secretary wrote a plain hand, but the
Judge could not boast much of his own
penmanship. One of his constituents,
who received a letter penned by the
secretary and signed by the Judge, eald:
"Judgo Kelley writes first rate until he
has said 'yours truly.' and then he
writes his name as though he was tired."
The "William D." was open to recogni
tion, but the "Kelley" might have been
anything.
During his long service in congress
he had filled the membership of all

Blood Made to Flow as Nature Meant It to
If you are suffering with rheumatism in any form, would you, give a few cents per day to
cure it? If you cannot pay all cash we will sell you "Try New Life" with a amall payment down
and a little each month, or you can pay by the week if you prefer.
Why suffer when you can be cured? COME IN AND SEE THIS WONDERFUL ma
chine that is being demonstrated at 367 MORRISON STREET, corner of WEST PARK, JUST
EAST OF OLDS, WORTMAN & KING.
Demonstrators are not there to sell unless you come to buy. This demonstration is being
carried on by the HamiltOn-Beach Sales Company to prove to the public the wonderful merits
of "Try New Life." It costs you nothing to see for yourself.
Thousands of Portland people have already availed themselves of this opportunity during
the past two months and hundreds have bought machines for their homes and are recommending
them to their friends. This is how "Try New Life" is sold. Every machine sold means others.
This is wh'y the manufacturers of "Try New Life" are turning out over 600 of these little ma
chines daily at the rate of one machine per minute. "This is proof the machine is a wonderful
seller and proof that it is giving satisfaction everywhere.
What does this "Try New Life" do? is the question asked by many sufferers who have not
come to see for themselves. The answer is easy but comprehensive. "Try New Life" instantly
takes away the pain of rheumatism and neuralgia, instantly warms and stimulates The circulation
and quiets the tortures of sleeplessness and cure3 the wrongs of sluggish circulation.
By its stimulating effect on
the circulation and the awaken
ing through the process of re
viving the tissue? there are few
ailments which it will not at
least benefit, and many which
it will positively remove.
Headache is one of the most
torturing and yet the - most
common of ailments to which
woman is subject Day after
day scores of women and girls
come here with faces drawn
and eyes circled with dark
rings, caused 1 by the terrible
headaches peculiar to their sex.
Never yet has such a one sub
mitted herself to the gentle op
erators in attendance, but she
has come out in a few minutes
with the pain taken, away, the
nerves soothed and the whole
system seemingly endowed
with new life. Hence the name
"Try New Life."
Imitation
There are many imitations
of "Try New Life" on the mar
ket which are offered at a lower
price. Many dealers do not carry "Try New Life" on account of the small profit there
is in it for them, but will try to sell you an imitation. Do not be misled by this, but get the
genuine "Try New Life," which is fully guaranteed. Always bear in mind when you are buy
ing "Try New Life" you pay a little more to get the genuine, but it is a machine that will prac
tically last a lifetime, so why, hesitate on account of price if you are getting the genuine and a
machine that you know will cure you.
"Try New Life" is a household necessity. Many leading physicians will acknowledge that
"Try New Life" should be in every home. When you have a headache "Try New Life" will
instantly relieve this. If you are tired and all in after a busy day "Try New Life" will stimu
late your tired nerves and endow you with new life.
If you have dandruff, which a great many people are afflicted with today, and which is the
cause of your hair continuously falling out, you will eventually become bald. But "Try New
Life" will absolutely cure this dandruff. There is no doubt about this. It is an absolute and
positive cure.
Demonstrations are also being carried on at the Meier & Frank Store, and at Stubbs Electric
Co., 61 Sixth street. We invite all to call and see for themselves the wonderful merits of this'
machine.
