GEER AND THE POLITICIANS.
Under the above caption the As--toria
Evening News publishes a
lengthy editorial, from which we
dip the following:
"There are several reasons why Mr.
Geer should be satisfied with the de
cision of the delegation. It did the
best thing it could under existing
conditions. It showed no desire to
turn him down. It gave him a
place that is just as desirable in the
eye of the public as the eollectorship.
nd that will serve his political am--bition
far better. ' In the land office
he would be free from many em
barrassing and entangling political
alliances that would disturb his peace j
of mind and employment, and be
would only come in contact with
the sturdy men with whom he has
been associated all his life.
"Again, we are informed that
when Mr. tieer took the stump for
the Republican party last November
he did so ioi a stipulated compensa
tion for his services; and having
been paid off, it is hardly probable
that the delegation feels under obli
gations to tender him an appoint
ment promised to another.
x
"There are some questions Mr.
Geer should ask himself. Who are
they who are so eager to have him
decline and snub the delegation ?
Are they his friends? What pur
pose have they in view his benefit
or his injury ?
"It is plain those who are eager to
liave him decline are not his friends,
nor the friends of the delegation,
and they care not what becomes of
Mr. Geer if they can use him to em
barrass the delegation. Thev are
simply using him as a tool, and his
honest nature as a trap for his un
doing. Because he is in a formida
ble position as a presidential elector,
they have singled him out as t!ie
proper person to defy, gracefully
bulldoze and dictate to the delega
tion. He may learn later that this
is a dangerous thing to do.
"We are to have an election next
June. The men who have the say
on federal appointments are now or
ganizing their forces, making their
selections from the ablest timber in
jiraclical politics. It is to be Mitch
ell and McBride on one side and
Simon and Scott on the other. These
men understand practical politics.
They know that the art of politics
depends on the constant principles
and motives of human self-interest.
Its details they have learned from
history and expeiience. They know
that such material as they have must
be used, and that power gained by
certaiu wa3's must be maintained, if
. at all, by corresponding means. The
battle is now on, and we must not
be surprised if the scenes enacted at
the primaries in Portland nearly two
years ago are repeated.
"Oregon has been disgraced by
dirty politics. It is time that the
career of II. W. Scott in the rele ot
Calaban should be ended. Simon,
who has stood in with him, should be
turned down. Governor Lord, who
is deaf to the voice of reason and
the people's burdens, must be made
to know that there are more potent
factors in the state than Simon, Scott
snd Corbett. In the next election
these men will read the sequel of the
late legislative crime. The people
are anxious to show them Waterloo.'
The latest reports from Skaguay
are to the effect that a new trail has
been completed to Lake Bennett and
tLat the struggling hundreds are now
arriving at the lakes. It is unfortu
nate that this is so, for while many
aro well supplied for the winter, the
other many are not, and so provi
sions will give oiu and much suffer
ing ensue. It is a misfortune that
the Chilcoot pass did not remain an
impassable barrier to the whole
crowd. Hunger will soon take the
place of the present hardships.
The last authentic report received
i from Professor Andree was brought
by a stool pigeon from Skaguay.
The bird carried a n-essage done up
in a quill and tied to its breast. It
reads: "North Pole, Aug. 27th.
Have found the pole and built a
pigeon house on it. Supply of
pigeons running short, so will send
no more till the first hatching gets
ripe. .Shall live on pigeon pies and
wait here for the relief party."
The dispatches state that many
college graduates are among the
crowds at Skaguay and Dyea. It is
seldom the college graduate discovers
wiiat he is good for, hence we sug
gest that these young athletes, fresh
from Virgil and Homer, should be
able to translate anything they come
across, especially a short passage like
j that from Skaguay to Lake Bennett.

Sick stomach means sick man (or
woman).
Why not be well?
Sick stomach comes from poor food,
poor nourishment; means poor health,
poor comfort. Shaker Digestive Cordial
means health and a well stomach.
If we could examine our stomach we
would understand why it is that eo little
will put it out of order.
But, onlees we are doctors, we never
see our stomach. We don't feel it. We
would feel it less if we took Shaker
Digestive Cordial.
Shaker Digestive Cordial makes your
stomach digest all the nourishing food
you eat, relieves all the symptoms of in
digestion, acts as a tonic and soon
makes 3'ou feel well and strong again.
The more you take, the less yon feel
of your stomach.
