"An Admirer" Given the Ilukcr City Herald a Florid Review ot Oregon City's Sniootli and Gay Deceiver Kays George C. la Misquoted by ICiicmlcH. "An Admirer" writes the following florid -and Bclntlllutlng eulogy ot George C. Itrownell, of Oregon City, for the Bilker City Herald: At the frills of the Willamette, that lovely river softly calling to the seu immortalized by Simpson, lives one of the most unique, versatile, gentle mis quoted men In all the state of Oregon. We refer to George C. Brownell. Oeorge C. Is a remarkable human in everyrespect. Kicked, scorned, dyna mited and shelled from the little pin headed weeklies to the fierce fire of the great Oregonlori's full dynamite butteries, he Is still doing business at the old stand. All the crimes on the political cal endar have been laid at his door. All the batteries of hate and envy have emptied their arsenals at George C with no avail. He still does bus iness. How is It? Has he the power of Arbaces, the Egyptla nsorcerer, or Is ho in lengue with the descendants of the Witch of Endor? Not at all, dear reador. George C. studies human nature and applies his 'talents to the poor people. His purse is their purse, their needs his special ty. Moek and mild In manner, wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove. George C after he Is smitten, comes nearer turning the other cheek than any man in Oregon, He has made more United States senators than any man in the state and be It truthfully said, he always stuck out for the poor ones. Money is no ob ject to George C, as he cannot keep lit. No appeal ever fell on deaf ears If It came to him and he could assist It. That Is the secret of his success; his love for his fellow men. Clackamas county has often honored George C. with legislative honors, and he has earned them. No county has a more faithful serv ant or one of more Influence. Time and again different parties have sought his Roulp but the common peo ple rallied around him and returned him to the senate and they will do It again, and Justly so as he has served them faithfully and well. George ('., is as calm as an Egyp tian Sphinx, versatile as a flea on an Apache dog, as Invulnerable to his enemies at Kanqun's ghost, faithful to Ills friends as David was to Jonathan, an ornament to Clackamas county and the state of Oregon. Clackamas will make no mistake in returning lilni to the senate. put ft up as only the pipe dreams of a greenhorn. One bright day, Claud walked into bank with a check that made four figures look sick. He had been buy ing Golconda before the strike at an extremely low figure and saying noth ing to his friends for fear of being guyed. The strike was made and Gol conda soured, and Claud sold. Hence the check of four figures. He drew his money the next day, left for the east and nothing has been heard of Claud since. Last evening he strolled Into the Herald office and presented his card, and It bore this Inscription: ChiUd Hart, president Merchants' and Farmers' bank, St. Louis. "Yes," he replied to an Inter rogation, "the old Golconda did It, God bless her." NEW COURSE ADDED. FORTUNE FROM GOLt'OXD.V Oaucl Hart, WIki Iloturht Stock ami Won Out. Many people living In linker City and nearly every man woman or child who lived and are living now In Sum pier, remembers well the name of Claud Hart, the statelllte financier who strurk the upper camp about throe years ago ond left Inside of 12 short months with a bank account that made the localities look envious ly In his direction, says the Baker City Herald. Claud wus In Baker City last night and wended his way toward Portland this morning, bearing with him the remembrance of many a genial hand clasp of old-time friends. (Nuud was n dapper, well groomed, and good looking young fellow who struck Sumpter about three years ago. He put up at the hotels and bc ga nto look around. He was always well dressed and hud but little to say to strangers although quite congenial to his friends, which, by the way, soon grew Into the hundreds. For a year he worked In the upper camp, soaking his hard earnings In mining stock down to the Inst nickel. Some of his friends thought that he was Just a little cracked, while the rest PIANOS A little talk about PIANOS. If a merchant soldjclothine for twenty dollars and then offered to deduct 70 per cent, or sell for six dollars, you find nut that six dollars Is all they are worth.

A special from Washington says in regard to the status of the Smoot cuse In the senate: If the senate had voted on the Smoot case at any time during the Fifty-eighth congress, there is little doubt but that the Utah senator would have been accorded a seat in the sen ate by a good liberal vote, but as time goes on the trend of sentiment agulnst him continues to grow, until now there appears to be prospect of an almost unanimous report against him by the committee on privileges and elections, and such a report, fol lowed up by a vigorous fight on the part of Chairman Burrows and some of the other prominent members of that committee, of both political faiths, makes the outlook today very dark for the apostle-senator. Senator Smoot Is personally accept able to the senate: he has many warm friends rn either side of the party aisle, and there are a number of sen ators who will vote for him because hey do not believe In injecting the church into politics. Senator Smoot b not a polygamlst; he does not prac tice polygamy, and therefore these particular senators are not In lavor of expelling him from the senate merely because he is an officlul in a church that has countenanced .rplural marriages, notwitnstandlng th pro testations of Its officials. But there are many other w-nators who will not stand by Smoot, oven though they like him as a man. Many senators who would have voted to seat him in the last congress are now ready to oust him. Xcnv Louder for Pootlxtll Ektcn Is o Popular Player. The man who will manage the footbail team of the Missionaries dur- iir the coming season has been se lected by the executive committee of the Associated Students of the college by a unanimous choice, says the Walla Walla Union. Arthur Morgan, sub for two years on the eleven, and one of the most popular members of the Sophomore class, Is the new man ager who will look after affairs per taining to the gridiron. - Morgan Is already In communica tion with the leading colleges of the northwest, and Whitman will In all probability secure games with ot least six other big schools next fall. The prestige established by last year's great eleven has spread far and wide. and the team will very probably make he southern trip which the Farmers took last season, Into Oregon. At the meeting the question of re islng the constitution was discussed ond will be decided at a meeting of the student body.

To all the science courses and to the mathematical course at the col lege, a fifth year was added by vote of the board of regents at the mid winter meeting Wednesday, says the Corvallls Times. The move Is the best day's work done for the college In years., The added year Is optional with the student, who can still grad uate In four years if desired. For the added year, however, new degrees, attesting the more udvunccd scholarship will offered. The move will keep one more year at the institution many students who have been going enst and elsewhere, after graduation, for more advanced work. Three of last year's graduates, for Instance, are now at Cornell, while several others are in other Institu tions, getting work the Oregon state college did not give. Indeed, a humlllntlng fact Is, that two former O. A. O. students are now at Pullman, the state college of Wash ington, having gone from the Oregon to the Washington college where mure advanced work Is available. A still more potent reason for the added year Is In the preparation of graduates. Much of the added year in nil courses Is laboratory, or prac tical work. It puts students In the mechanical, electrical, mining and other courses, In far better form for taking positions. In consequence, when fifth year graduates In the future shall take po sitions they will be able to reflect more credit on the college, and Inci dentally draw better salaries. The Importance of this advanced work Is recognized even by the graduates themselves, In that so many of them after graduation at O. A. O. seek other Institutions while still others come back to O. A. O. for a post-graduate course. Something like 20 graduates are at the college this year, pursuing post-graduate work. The added year applies to the mathematical, electrical, mechanical, mining, chemical and agricultural courses. The new degrees to be con ferred will be civil engineer, electri cal engineer, mechanical engineer., mining engineer, chemical engineer and agricultural engineer. The student may. if desired, grad uate In the four year course with a bachelor of science degree, and the following year graduate In the engi coughs QUICKEST CURE golds THE WONDER WORKER FOR I I AND THROAT I DR.
