SATUUDAY, OCTOBER IS, 1902.
The marriage market has opened in
this county with a boom. Two cere
monies a day now by one local author
ity Is swelling the record.
Democracy has seen many glimmers
o hope through the clouds that have
hung over the country of late, but
with the coal strike settled and Bryan
and Cleveland and Hill talking, the
cloud grows darker for democracy.
The Portland Law Enforcement
League will havo the sheriff arrest
the chief of police and constable and
then have the coroner arrest the sher
iff. Then who will arrest the coro
ner? Ho ought to be arrested too.
Not a guilty one should escape.
It is difficult to pass laws and ordi
nances to please everybody. The bi
cyclists and the officers are all kick
ing on the present bicycle ordinance.
Bicyclists should keep quiet. There
are but few cities or towns in the
United States where bicyclists are
permitted to ride on the sidewalks.
And there are few bicyclists in Pen
dleton that ride within the provisions
of the ordinances. It is a bad prece
dent, anyway, but it is probably best
to tolerate it until the town is pro
vided with paved streets.
Bryan now comes forward and tells
what he has done for democracy in
the way of contributions to campaign
funds. He claims that he has con
tributed $19,000 for campaign pur
poses within the past six years. It
would be interesting to know how
much Mr. Bryan has realized by rea
son of the active steps he has taken
in politics. Of course, he was not
paid for his work, but the notoriety
that he has attained has placed him in
a position to make more money than
if he had been hired straight out. For
instance, the Commoner. That paper

country for damages. If the Fillip!
nos arc given too much rope they may
take a more foolish idea into their
heads. Since these now "possessions"
have cost this country so much blood
and so many tears, It is not a good
Idea to argue the case too much with
them. They will either have to be
colonized by Americans and educated
in this manner to the point of the
proper appreciation of this country,
or they will have to be held under sub
Jectlon to that extent whereby they
may see what Is the proper thing to
do. This country has them and will
have to take care of them, and there
is no use of doing It in a roundabout
way,
The republican party may claim
the credit for settling the strike, but
the credit does not all lie there. Dem
ocracy, the balancing power of this
government, comes in for an equal
share. In their dire extremity the
people were turning to her. They al
ways turn to democracy in the hour
of peril. The republicans saw this
and they hastened to redeem them
selves, and although the father of
trusts, they brong'.U their lmghtiest
influences to bear and setttled tho
strike. Of theli own accord, republic
cans would not have made the move.
It was the ever-watchful democracy
the avenging spirit to republicanism
that brought them to time. Already
the forces were rising throughout tho
country. The republicans saw the
cloud rising and they saved theni'
selves. Democracy may be a long tlmo
in getting in the saddle again, 'but
the good she has accomplished to the
country is immeasurable. Vhen
some of her obnoxious leaders have
passed off the field and now ones with
the true spirit come to the front, she
will again be a power in the land, and
it will not be in the form of a check
power either. She will be in the sad
dle.
Oregon is put at the foot of the
class among the "arid" states in the
irrigation column. It is not because
Oregon has not the best arid lands
of them all, nor because she has the
poorest Irrigation facilities. She has
all of these. Her lands are tho best,
I)fr rivers are accessible to many
wide scopett of country, and she has
hundreds of reservoir sites in tho
mountains for storing water. BeJ
sides, her facilities for artesian wells
in tho way of a natural supply at a
short depth, give her advantage over
many points. Tho trouble seems to
Ho in the falluro of Oregon peonle

however, as the Eleventh Is over
whelmingly democratic.
When It was noised about that he
was "hankrin" after political honors.
his friends denied that such was a
fact. But Mr. Hearst was pulling the
wires all the time. It seems, and up
until the moment his name was pre
sented his Intimate irlends refused
to believe he was after office of any
sort. In securing the nomination for
congress from tho Eleventh district
Mr. Hearst shows that he knows a
thing or two about politics, for he

Now that Hearst has broken the

William Randolph Hearst Is not far

enemies nnd thousands of friends. He
was born In San Francisco and edu
cated in tho public schools of that
city. He went to Harvard and when
graduated his father preseuted him
with tho San Francisco Examiner.
The paper was so weak at that time
that it tottered on from day to day.
Now it is a valuablo property. In

The statistics of tho receipts of cat-

country show an immense decreaso
of range cattle. The rango belug de
stroyed by over-feeding, the produc
tion of beef Is forced back to a more
costly source on the high-priced pas
ture' lands and farms of the agricul
tural states Iu this way over CO per
cent of tho supply Is transferred from
the cheapest to the costliest source
of production, with a resulting rlso of
beef on tho hoof from J2.50 per hun
dred to $8.50. nnd a greater rise In
cut beef on the butcher's block.
It Is now known that high prices on
the hoof are to bo perpetuated by an
other factor. The owner of farm-bred
cattle, tempted by high prices, is
rushing fat heifers Into mnrket. Tho

the wife has no share in. Her day be
gins before his and ends long after it,

use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. It establishes
regularity, dries weakening
drains, heals inflammation
and ulceration, and cures
female weakness. It makes
weak women strong and
sick women well.
Sick people are invited to
consult Dr. Pierce, by letter,
free. All correspondence is
held as strictly private and
sacredly confidential. Address Dr. R. V.
Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
"I suffered with female weakness about eight
years tried several doctors but derived no bene

scription," writes Mrs. John Green, of Danville,
Doyle Co., Ky. "This medicine was recom
mended to me by other patients. I have taken
six bottles and I feel like another person."
The dealer who offers a substitute for
"Favorite Prescription," is only seeking
to make thj little more profit paid on
the sale of less meritorious medicines.
His profit is your loss. Refuse all sub
stitutes. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets should te
used with "Favorite Prescription " when
ever a laxative is required.
