Just a sunburned back and legs from too much exposure on the beach over the week-end. He will serve as the "horrid example" with which to introduce an extract from the bulletin of the state board of health on the sun bath fad. Fresh air and sunshine are the best of tonics; but the sunshine part needs to be taken the health bulletin says on the subject: "Sua baths will undoubtedly soon be popular as the season becomes more favorable. Although the sun's rays are extolled tor their health virtue injudicious exposure may have unfor tunate results and sunshine may become a menace to health " when improperly used. Light sensitiveness is, not an uncommon condition. Persons sensitive to light may develop a number of akin disorders as well as a general disturbance such as high fever, delirium and serious meningitis. Young children burn more quickly than adults and special care should be used to protect them. Sunlight and ultra violet irradiation may act as an ex citing cause of certain summer skin disorders. Hematoporphyrin is thought by some investigators to be the chemical that causes these skin eruptions. Sunlight causes the production of hem atoporphyrin which is a derivative of chlorophyl, the coloring matter : found in plants. This substance has been found in the urine df patients suffering from light sensitiveness and this condition is known as porophinuria. Other investigators suggest the hematoporphyrin is the result rather than the cause of light sensitiveness. "Too much light and warmth are often just as detrimental to man as too little. Man can maintain his full, vigor with very little sunlight, although Runlight is unquestionably one of the : factors having to do with the sensation of bodily and mental well being. Take your sunbaths like any other form of recreation, in moderation and with common sense. All the value of sunlight can be obtained without going to the extreme burning of the skin. It can be harmful and can be avoided. Blondes and bru nettes react differently, for the brunettes can withstand inten sive exposure to light in contrast with the fair-skinned blonde who reacts more severely. Occasionally blondes tolerate light well and tan easily. Age must be considered, the very old and the very young demanding greater protection. In the beginning, graduated exposure to air should be made indoors with windows wide open. This is followed by a slowly increasing exposure of added parts of the body to graduated intensities of sunlight. Sun bathing is best when the air is relatively cool. Irritability, fatigue, headache, dizziness, lassitude and fever are evidences of over exposure." , Call for Assembly A little over a quarter of a century ago progressives of that day fought for and obtained the direct primary system of nominating candidates for office. It was a thrust against the old machine which ruled caucuses and conventions. Then candidates were "hand-picked"; and popular resentment found expression in a change to the direct primary. This year in Oregon the direct primary was used for the nomination of candidates. Each of the two big parties named . a man who is worthy of elevation to the high position of gov ernor, each of whom has served creditably in public office. General Charles H. Martin is entitled to the support of the members of the democratic party by virtue of his attain ments, his character and his political creed. Joe E. Dunne is entitled to the support of the republicans. He is neither con servative nor radical; but a moderate in his political views. His character s clean, and his ability has been demonstrated in fields of business and politics. He is distinctly a man of the people, having risen from dint of his own efforts. Yet disaffected elements feel they must have a candidate of their own, and a call has gone out for a convention. This again will be a hand-picked convention, and the candidate is already hand-picked. Without doubt those who participate in the convention are registered as republicans or democrats. The one who gives word of the call for the convention is a candidate for the legislature on the republican ticket. Thus lightly do they regard party ties ; and thus ruthlessly do they spurn the direct primary method of naming candidates. Tourist Business Gains OREGON tourist business is already proving better than last year. To date at Crater Lake the visitors have num bered 30,000 which shows an increase of 100 over the like period last year. There was a great difference in seasons of course, the park being open, from January on this year. But the gain keeps up, each day showing increase over the date - the year previous. This proves the increase is not just due to earlier park opening. Ocean resorts are entering on a good season. Last week-end cabins on the Lincoln county beaches were well filled up ; and those without reservations had to hunt for accommo dations. The Rose Festival at Portland was the biggest success in many years, and the crowds were the largest. Another indication of more business on the roads is the gain in receipts from gas taxes. While much of this is no doubt due to increased local consumption, greater tourist travel is doubtless a factor also. Oregon's great bid to fame must be for its scenic re sources. Our people live with these beauties so much they often fail to appreciate their value in attracting people from the plains states or hot, dry California. It is the visitors who exclaim over the beauties they see here. Both legislative and public policy should be directed to attract tourists to Oregon and to make them comfortable while they are here. "Time to Strike" IT was something of a shock to read as heading of an ed itorial in the unusually conservative Albany Democrat Herald, "Now is the time to strike". The country is nervous enough now over strikes and threats of strikes without hav ing Editor Potwin egging on the strikers. However the striking which the editor proposes is not for union recogni tion of higher wages, but for getting federal aid in flood con trol in the Willamette valley. Approving the work done by the Willamette valley flood control association, and on the favor shown by Washington where Congressman Mott's bill for a survey passed congress, the D-H. sagely remarks: "There is nothing like striking when the iron is hot." True enough. The raging waters ,of the McKenzie, the Santiam, the Willamette, annually tear away many acres of valuable farm land, cut new channels or open old ones; so - the farmers on lands bordering the river suffer heavy losses from' the rampages. Perhaps the control of these mountain fed streams will never be complete; but something should be done to lessen the chances of loss in the rich lands of the valley. . te n er not inerwise creunw Bathj in moderation. Here is what humble situation in life by ! Health Bits (or Breakfast By Royal S. Copeland. M.D. NO DOUBT yon have heard many s person say: "Isn't It remarkable the way the children of today have their cod liver oUT When I was a child, we were bribed to take the smelly tonic. Few realize the t r t mind o u s changes that have been made tn the manufac ture of cod Uver oil. The oil now used la a pur product, without the o ft e n s I v taste and smell of olden days. In fact, t Is now possible to pur chase a flavored cod Uver olL Dr. Copeland In addition to changes in the pro- , ductlon pf this oil. modern medical science discovered valuable sub stances in it In former years. cod liver oil was prescribed as a "tonic", I especially during: the spring months j when tonics seemed to be needed. To j day, cod liver oil Is advised for chil I dren from infancy to six years of age, during the fall, winter and spring seasons. Good for Infants Physicians of yesterday, would be surprised to hear the modern physi cian prescribe cod Uver oil for the in fant as early as the first week. As a rule. It is given to the child unUl he reaches his third year, and In many Instances is conUnucd for a longer period of Ume. Of course. It Is also prescribed for older children and adults who show signs of certain con stitutional disorders. The value of cod liver oil was first' recognized because of Its beneficial action on children suffering from rickets. The cause of this disease is now known to be due to a lack of sunlight or of vitamin D In the diet. The disease has always prevailed among poor children living in tene ment homes where fresh air and sun light are scarce. Today, we know that sunlight has the effect of vitamins A and D. These are essential to the development and growth of Btrong and sturdy bones. These very vitamins are found in cod Uver oiL To give a child cod liver oil. Is to assure him of an adequate supply of what sunshine gives. Of course, whenever possible, the bene ficial rays of the sun should be en joyed by everybody. Increase Amounts Gradually As I have said, cod liver oil may be given to the young Infant. Begin In the third or fourth week with half a teaspoon of plain pure cod Uver oil. Give this amount twice a day. At six weeks give one teaspoon twice a day. Increase the quanUty gradually until you give two teaspoons twice a day and this may be continued to the age of two years. If you dislike the smell or taste of cod liver oil, never allow the child to know It. Children love to mimic their elders. If you voice your opinion you will be disappointed to see the child develop the same dislike. Cod liver oil is an added protection against In fection and disease. Its value should never be overlooked. Answers to Health Queries Mrs. H. W. Q. My daughter Is greatly troubled with canker sores and sore mouth. What can be done to correct a condition of this kind?

HENDRICKS J Oregon, 33rd state In Union: Strange quicks of partisan politics; Hendricks for judge: s s s (Continuing from yesterday:) Why did it take a month and two days for Oregon to get the news of her admission as a state? -w The Pacific Mail Steamship company procured the removal of the distributing office for Oregon from Astoria to San Francisco in 18S3. The clerks in San Francisco were Ignorant of the geography of Oregon, and the system became obnoxious for other reasons. A mair arrived after the ordinary de lay at Oregon City Dec. 21, and lay there until Jan. 1, with no one to attend to forwarding the maU bags to their proper destina tions up the Willamette valley. Such was the state of things in 1856. The Oregon legislature peti tioned and remonstrated. S In 1857, when Lane was in Ore gon and was reelected delegate in congress, he gave as a reason for not having secured a better mail service that the republicans had a majority in congress, when this same republican congress had ap propriated 1500,000 for an over land mail to California. A contract was concluded about the same time with the Pacific Mail Steamship company for carrying the mails between Pan ama and Astoria for 1248,250 per annum, and the service by sea was somewhat improved, though still very imperfect. Overland mail to California from St Louis was established in 1858, time 23 days and 4 hours. This indirectly benefitted Oregon, though Oregon could still get let ters only twice a month. s Before 1857 there was no line of passenger coaches anywhere in Oregon. One Concord coach owned by Charles Rae was the only stage in the Willamette val ley from 1853 to 1855. A stage line from Portland to Salem was put on the road in 1857, making the journey in one day. In 1859 a mail and passenger coach ran once a week from Salem to Eu gene, and from Eugene to Jack sonville. Weekly and semi-weekly malls had been carried to the towns on the west side. Hills boro, Lafayette, Dallas and Cor vallis, but the postoffice depart ment in 1860 ordered this service to be reduced to a bi-monthly one, and that the mail should be car ried but once a week to Jackson ville and the towns along the way. "If Lane keeps on helping us," said the Oregon City Argus, "we shall soon have a monthly mall carried on foot or in a canoe." The people were clamoring for a daily mall from Portland to Jacksonville, with no prospect of getting it until the California Stage company interposed with an offer to the postal department to carry the mail overland daily to Oregon. This company, formed in 18S3, a consolidation of the various stage lines in California, began with a $1,000,000 capital, had 750 horses and covered 450 miles of road. In June, 1860, the California company placed its stock on the road as far as Oakland, Oregon, (of course "old Oakland," not the present Oakland ), connecting there with Chase's line to Corval 1 is, which again connected with the Oregon Stage company's line to Portland. Came the great flood of '61-2, carrying away nearly all the bridges on the line. For many weeks no mails were carried. But, undaunted, business was resum ed. The great overland stage days followed. There were several suc cessive owners. "Frank Stevens and Louis McLane bought the property in 1866; soon sold it to H. W. Corbett, E. Corbett, Wm. Hall, A. O. Thomas and Jesse D. Carr. It was operated under the name of H. W. Corbett & Co. un til 1869, when Carr bought out his partners and operated the lines until 1870, when he sold to the California & Oregon Coast Overland Mail company. This company operated the lines until the early fall of 1885, when the last spike was driven in southern Oregon on the railroad connecting California with this state. The last stage for the south left Salem Dec. 7, 1870, taking all horse3, wagons, hacks and stages. As the railroad was extended south, until the fall -of 1872, suc cessive removals following the front were made, stopping then at Roseburg for 10 years. The front began removals south in the fall of 1882, when the last one went out of Roseburg, accom panied by a brass band. The writ ter of these lines, being present In a newspaper capacity, wrote up that big news. S Following the admission of Oregon, an act extending the laws and Judicial system of the United States over the new member of the sisterhood was passed March 3, 1859. It provided for a United States Judge, at 22500 a year. Late in 1858. Geo. H. Williams had been appointed chief Justice of the ter ritory, with R. P. Boise associate justice, and Walter Forward, Mar ion county. United States marshal. On May 20 the judges-elect (of the supreme and circuit courts) met at Salem to draw lots for their terms of office, R. P. Boise and R. E. Stratton getting the six years and A. E. Walt the four year term, which made Wait chief justice, as per the constitution. P. P. Prim of Jackson county got Deady's place. Joseph G. Wilson got the position of clerk of the supreme court To make the record clear, the reader must know that Matthew P. Deady had been appointed by the president to the office of United States judge of the new state which he held until the end of his eventful life. V Here comes a scrap of history little known, and by this time forgotten by most people who knew it at all. Thomas A. Hendricks wanted the place which Judge Deady got. Says a note in Bancroft's history: "Grorer says that Hendricks of Indiana, who was then commis sioner of the general land office, and afterward was senator for six years, and a candidate for the vice presidency, was among the appli cants for the place, and person ally his preference, but that the Oregon people - were opposed to imported officers, and hence he recommended Deady. It was said at the time thai Lane made the recommendation to ken Deady out of his way in future elections. However that may be, the appoint ment was satisfactory, and Judge Deady has done much to support tne dignity of the state, and to i promote the GROWTH. OF MCK n CHAPTER XXXVIL It was known, now from the .Wilderness Station agent that Ann had taken her son and Nance Jordan to the city. That a stranger In an imposing automobile, with a roan in uniform at the wheel, had twice visited the Haskel place was also known. And that was all. But about Jeff Todd and his ac tivities the neighborhood seemed better informed, although the talk was mostly in cautious whispers, sly, half-humorous observations, and thinly veiled suggestions. Pappy Giles shook his head dubi ously over some of the things which he heard at the store. And it was noticed that he treated certain loud voiced, swaggering customers with grave and, as far as possible, silent respect. The old storekeeper was sometimes awakened at night by the sound of horses passing down the hogback. Certain men from other neighborhoods were seen about the Haskel place. To Uaflr" Jimmie and a chosen few Pappy sometimes recalled the days when the night-riders of Swamp Valley terrorized the coun tryside. Once, when aggravated al most beyond his endurance by a visit from Jeff and his inseparable companion. Lent Wilkins, Pappy told Uncle Jimmie that "Jeff Todd war jest like a bad dog what had broke loose an' war runnin' wild over the country. Couldn't nobody tell who he war likely to bite, nor when." "Yon done said hit," Uncle Jim mie agreed. "The only difference 'tween Jeff an' Lent is the difference 'tween a polecat an' a skunk which ain't nothin' but a manner of speak in'. A body couldn't think nothin' 'bout one what wouldn't fit t'other jest as well." It was generally conceded with more or less uneasiness that "if Ann war to come back she'd sure find things changed a heap." Some even went so far as to say that "Ann Haskel had done had her day, an' that if she knowed what war good f er her she wouldn't never show up in these parts no more." Jeff Todd and Lent Wilkins were in the living-room of the Haskel house. It was an hour, perhaps, after sundown. A meager fire burned in the neglected fireplace where the heaped-up ashes, spilling out over the hearth and the floor, mixed with a slovenly litter of burnt matches. discarded quids or. tobacco, and other refuse. The table which for merly held John Herbert's books, papers, and writing materials had been dragged from its place in the book-corner and was burdened with a gallon jug oi "white mule, sev eral dirty glasses, a pack of greasy cards, a collection of flat pint and half -pint bottles, and an open box of leaf tobacco with an assortment of cob pipes. In place of the green shaded student lamp, a grimy evil- smelling lantern shone with a murky gleam in the foul atmosphere of tobacco smoke and corn-liquor fumes. The bookshelves were bare. The brown flower jar was over turned on the floor in the corner. "Be an hour yit 'fore hit's time fer we-una to go," offered Lem in the maaner of one making polite conversation to pass the time. "All of that." returned Jeff. "Ain't no use fer we-uns gittin thar Tore the boys. They wouldn t be a-startin' 'fore dark." Lem spat meditatively into the feeble fire. " Tain't aigheo handy from hyear as 'twas on the head of Shady Creek." Jeff rrinned. "Hitll sure be mighty onhandyfer old Ann Has- The other laughed appreciatively, "I'd like to be a-hidin in the bresh to watch the old gal s face next time she drops in at the head of to suit her. What do von reckon she'll do, Jeff, if she comes back an' finds out whats happened? Jeff Todd answered with a snar ling oath: "Ann Haskel's goin' to do jest what I say. I n a -runnin things cow. If she's fool "nough to come back hyear shell listen to me or" he paused significantly" "shell be a-leavin' these parts ag'in a darned sight quicker'n she did before. "You done said hit," agreed Lem, admiringly. "I reckon you know you can count on me an the boys to" He paused, listening intent ly. "Sounds like soraethin' a-corain' down the hogback from the ridre. "Hit's an automobile," said Jeff, AL AND SOCIAL INSTITU- rTIONS." s s Thomas A. Hendricks was born In Ohio, became a lawyer; was in 1851 a member of the Pennsyl vania legislature and of the state constitutional convention of that state. Was a member of congress, 1851-5. He was made commission er of the general land office by President Pierce, holding that place until 1859. the time spoken of by L. F. Grover, as noted above; Grover then serving his 16 day term as Oregon's first con gressman. Thomas A. Hendricks was three times a candidate for vice president, and was elected to that office in 1884. when Grover Cleveland was the first lime elect ed president But he died after holding the office less than nine months; date of his death, Nov. 25, 1885. Hendricks was U. S. senator from Indiana from 1863 to '69, and he was governor of his state from 1873 to 1877. During those years, he was bitterly accused of being a "copperhead," on account of his sympathy with his south ern friends. S During the last days of his life. he became a great friend of Henry H. Gllfry, then reading clerk of the United States sen ate. (Continued tomorrow.) Providence Gathering Draws Many Pioneers LARWOOD, June 20.

Silently they stole back into the kitchen. Ordering his companion to keep out of sight, Jeff went on into the living-room to answer the visitor's knock. He threw open the door, and in the light which streamed out rec ognized Diane Carrol. "Good evening," said Diane, hur riedly. "I came to see Mrs. Has kel." Jeff looked over her shoulder to ward the car a roadster and his bad-dog face twisted into tn evil grin. "Tell Mrs. Haskel that 1 am here, please," Diane commanded, sharp ly. "Say that it is important that I must see her." "Sure. Come in, miss." He stepped aside. Diane crossed the threshold, and he closed the door behind her. "What be you a-wantin of Ann ?" "IH explain to Mrs. Haskel Go teU her I am here." "Sure. That's all right Thar ain't no call fer you to be in sich a sweat's I can see. Sit down. You an' me aint had a Visit fer a right smart spell."

I would like to add the sig nificance of the hot winds over the wide area which has destroyed so much wheat My lather lived in that country for many years and we never met with such a ter rible wholesale destruction, also the great loss later by fire in the stockyards at Chicago. Only those of us who have seen these places can realize the vastness of all this calamity, wheat and meat; the very two commodities which were considered to be a surplus. Now we must pay more for these foods and be taxed extra to help tho.su threatened by famine. The state is waiting for more funds to build bridges gasoline is taxed and our homes are threatened with confiscation. The gas tax has brought in millions: Why isn't it paying for the roads and bridges tho motorists use? Our recent pa per tells us the state is all ready to take away our property, be it from one who has much of this world's goods, or a poor, crippled old man or widow and orphans. There are those, in all this, get ting more than their share worldly smart they may be. One made the remark, which I espe cially noticed la the paper, "The sales tax shouldn't pass," he said; "if they set down hard on prop erty there wiU be enough for the schools."

"But Ann and Nance must be here," cried Diane. "What makes yon think that a way?" The girl answered, desperately: "Because they left their home in the city. Where else wtould they go but here? They left suddenly. There was a party. Ann received a mes sage. She disappeared, It was all my fault I must see her at once and explain. It is no ase for yon to say she isn't here. Tell her I have come to explain. Please let me see her." -Did Herb leave, too?" "No, no just Ann and Nance. It was a little before midnight that Ann received the message. I saw the butler give it to her. Then she waS gone. She must have taken the train which leaves at one o'clock." "How'd you git hyear?" "I came in an airplane to Au rora, and motored from there." "Does Herb know you come after Ann?" "Nobody knows, I left just before daylight I wanted to be here when Ann arrived, but there were delays. The plane was forced to land at Springfield, and I lost time in Au rora finding a car. Ann must have arrived this afternoon, I'm sure I can make her understand if she will only give me a chance. Please go and tell her." "I'm a-tellin' you that Ann Has kel ain't hyear. She ain't come back to these parts, wharever she is." Diane was frightened bow in earnest "I 1 was so sure Mrs. Haskel and Nanee would be here," she faltered. "I must go." She started toward the door, but Jeff did not move. "Whar you aimin'.to go?
