HERE WE ARE AGAIN Not to tell you about the purity of oqr drugs or the accuracy of our compounding, for every man, woman and child knows that in this we EXCEL all others in our line. It is to tell you of all Hie new goods we are receiv ing daily and of interest to you. Nothing is nicer and more valuab e than a fine collec tion of "STEINS" and we have them in all sizes and prices. It is the craze of the present age, so fall in line. SEE OUR WINDOW DISPLAY Brock & IHcComas Company term Is not equivalent to "the general run of men," though quite commonly used in that sense. In truth, this wonderful being whom everybody talks of and nobody knows Is a flc tlou created by adding together thousand human beings, each (HIT erlng from the other 999, dividing them by 1000, and saying "That is the average man." Manifestly not one item in the list corresponds to the footing. New York World. LARIAT BILL. THE nODERN DRUfJQISTS PENDLETON "Well stranger, 'twas somewhere in Git I was running the 'Frisco fast ex press; An' from Murder creek to Blasted Pine Was nigh on to 18 miles I guess. The road was a down-grade all the way, An' we pulled out of Murder a little late, So I opened the throttle wide that day And a mile a minute- was 'bout our gait. It is unfortunate that Tracy did not live to try his famous 30-30 on Bomu of the editors who have been writing poetry about him. The papers are still talking tariff and protection. A suffering public should be spared this affliction during off years in politics. Yesterday was election day In Ten nessee and up to a late hour a small, unimportant precinct only reported two killed and one wounded out of a four-handed fight. Governor Geer has just recently re lurntd from the Bummlt of Mount Hood and Is now off for a trip to Crater Lake. Mountain trails are easy compared with the road that leads to the senate. The battle between Judge Jacksou and the miners is a long drawn out one.

He may give the farmers a pointer on tho "merger" business, and the next thing may be a farmers' "combine." A great deal Is being said nowadays about the "spirit" of different cities and towns of the state. There is more of the spirits frumenti in evidence in many of the towns and cities than any other kind of spirit. The posse that captured Tracy went prepared in many ways. Besides being well armed it took with it a physician and lawyer. The physi cian's services might have come in handy and in case of suit to recover the reward It would not be necessary to spnt me amount recovered with a lawyer. It is claimed by those living near tho army posts of the country that tho newly enlisted soldiers are of the worst class known in the history of the army. Men who enlist In the army In times of peace for $13 a month, aro not usually worth any more than that price, and need to be under restraint on general principles. The negro congress is In session In Atlanta, Ga. So far the speakers who represent the advanced thinkers of tho race think that education will be the means of elevating the race. They are conservative in their vlewu and understand the situation much better than writers of the North who are constantly solving the race prob lem. The old newspaper idea of roasting everything that happens to please the writer is antldated. The purpose or tha modern newspaper Is to build up Instead of tearing down. The roaster belongs to the past should be classed with the common scolds, If a thing is not right come no one who Is not directly or indirect ly benefitted by it. It Is -the purpose to have some able papers read on the subjects most vital to woolgrowers and these should be heard bv the nun. lie generally for it is claimed that an era of advancement in all branches of the industry is close at hand. It is a day of education in all trades and callings. He balanced a moment before he threw, Then out in the air his lariat swept! He pause. There were tears in his honest eyes. The stranger listened with bated breath 'I know tho rest of the tale,' ho cried: 'He snatched the child from tho jaws of death!

THE FAIR The Place to Save Money Another express messenger lias dis tinguished himself by killing a train robber. With a big reward hanging over the head of every criminal In the country and a chance for promo tion in sight for the killers of crimi nals none of them would live long after the commission of serious crimes. It is suggested that money talks in these matters as in others, and that if a standing reward was of fered by tho government for the COURSE OP HOG PRICES. he like?
